I liked our team with Torres on it. Love him or hate him, he brings an intimidating element with his game.

This. They got a steal for 1M. I look at the money wasted and they could have done alot better stepping up and paying a guy like that to stay. You need guys like him to win. You don't have to like them, but you need them.

Lets put it this way, that Raymond vine basically sums up the Canucks in 2014.
- Nucker101

No way... Raymond is making our best player look like Valeri Bure.

Nucks fans will definitely appreciate this

Too soon?

That sounds more like a reset... last thoughts on mind were to get back on the ice and score, reset heart, and ready to get right back at it.... I think that is a reset.

If the Pats want to remain semi-relevant, they pretty much HAVE to get Revis. After what the Broncos did today (& what they're still trying to do in FA), they're by far the best team in the AFC. Only thing between them & a repeat SB appearance is Manning staying healthy.

On another note, (frank) the Saints for recklessly & desperately throwing the vault @ Byrd... Pretty much guarantees ETIII becoming a $10 million dollar FS.

Big number, but ET3 is the kind of guy you could get quality production from even at that price tag

2nd stint. 1970's onward.

Ahhh. makes you old growth but not ancient growth.

So Torts get fired if we lose tonight?

No. But I imagine the parking staff at Rogers may be the next in the line.

That would require Gillis to make a impact decision to improve the team. So no.

Kinda my point... It doesn't matter how good or bad your picks are. It's how you develop them. Clearly the Canucks do NOT invest and develop players.

How excited are the prospects when Utica is clearly a joke. It's no wonder so many players are not developing there. Not that it was great when it was the Manitoba Moose, but it was alot better than what we have now.

Years of success and trading picks for rentals catches up to you, the Canucks owning their own farm will help them better develop prospects, or at least it should.

I heard it was the 50/50 folks who were getting the axe next if they lose to Winnipeg, tonight.

How far would the money they paid Torts go for the farm club? SMH.

The new blog is up, including the link to TSN's video of MG facing reporters in Florida today.

I'm blaming everyone. The majority of the roster is under performing. The coaching system doesn't seem to working and Gillis doesn't seem to have a plan to get this thing pointed in the right direction. He keeps talking about getting younger and faster but half the roster is locked into long term contracts with NTC's.
