I wonder when Tavares is visiting Trevor and Jim?
- LeftCoaster


No point in visiting, he can't sign until the 1st.

2x 16m

Blow everybody away.

Somewhat perplexing for an organization to go into a draft when you're rebuilding with only six picks, but yeah, what to do?
- LeftCoaster

It just goes to show you don't quite have the depth to do these trades we're hoping for. JB will have a lot more on his plate one year from now.

Looking at peoples reaction on multiple websites, the Canucks did pretty well. I have no problems with Woo at 37. Could turn out to be like Bieska with better hands. Was he the BPA available? Probably not, but he was high on their list. Had he not been injured he would probably have gone in the 1st round imo

Ive actually never set foot on a rig in my life, but I'm told those guys are some of the hardest working guys you'll ever find.

No lift kit on my truck, 100% stock, 2006 and still running strong, not quite the 4500 you have but sufficient enough to pull a large boat.

Don't forget to mention that you're listening to Abba's Greatest Hits while hauling your boat.

Yeah I don't really have an issue with who he chose but rather he didn't make enough picks.

Had a '72 GMC when I lived on Bowen Island. I often had a police escort arriving at the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal. The West Van cops hated the old beater. Maybe it was the "Abba Still Sucks" bumper sticker that drew attention.

The agent for Patrick Wiercioch and Michael Chaput says both players will be free agents on July 1st. Wiercioch is a ufa, Chaput is a rfa.


Canucks are not re-signing them

I am surprised and happy.

Chaput was one of their most productive players last year and Canucks/Comets lack of centers was a surprise to me. I am thrilled they are looking for better quality .

"Interesting tidbit on #Canucks drafting Madden over Wise. They think Madden has a lot of room to improve (size, speed, strength), where as Wise is closer to his physical ceiling. That contributed to them believing that Madden has a higher ceiling. Wise had 3% body fat if I recall"


Not sure if he'll get taller but good God he should get thicker for sure.

Can't wait for Benning to drop the Datsyuk comparison..

Although I did and still do like Zhukenov.

I don't hate the manyukan pick but was hoping to gamble on Sokolov late. Either way high upside.

Cops and ABBA haters don’t mix. Your bumper sticker might as well have said f@ck the police.

Can confirm the 2nd team officially talking to John Tavares this week is San Jose. They are going all in for him, and word is the entire team is on board to make it happen. They really want him.

I got pulled over because my turn signal was blinking too fast. I hated West Van cops.
