This isn't a thing anymore. Now they're pimping "It's a new game". Sorry, there wasn't actually much change, but it's a new game, so there's that...

I certainly hope it's a new game because the old ones were (frank)ing awful.

I posted a while back a 2nd line of Higgins / Bonino / Burrows was probable.

Change is Coming... eventually.

So does Tuesday officially start when Carol posts a new blog or can we start going bat-poop crazy now?

I can't say its the sexiest lineup but its more or less what was expected. Neither Shink or Jensen were good enough and Horvat will most likely get a few games in to see if he can play at this level.

As far as youth goes, Vey and Stanton are getting a chance to play significant minutes and unfortunately so is Sbisa.

I can see this team being effective if they can roll all 4 lines and attack wave after wave, the way the Habs have seen success recently. At any rate this team will be better to watch than last year. I do like the forward depth, obviously if Henrik goes down, we are (frank)ed but there are a lot of options on the farm to call up.

If Henrik gets hurt…Vantel gets his wish.

I want some trades damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think we start as soon as possible. I stepped into the batter's box immediately.

I just checked out the Canucks web site. They did change the slogan. Funny, I received this Fan survey last week asking me questions about the 'Change is Coming' advertising.

Obviously it wasn't working.

Kassian will never turn out the way most have predicted. He'll show glimpses of dominance only to be followed by long (frank)ing periods of disinterested play. Between injuries, suspensions, and being in the (frank)ing coaches doghouse, Kassian will see limited playing time this season and will be gone by the start of next (frank)ing season.

Total (frank)ing bust. Another (frank)-up by managers of this franchise. Should have made Cody's father the (frank)ing GM, at least we would have a legitimate (frank)ing superstar at the centre position on this (frank)ing team.

funny thing, when that banner went up, the only thing I thought about was 'that's the closest Morrison will ever get to having his number in the rafters'.

The team underperformed last year. I say they have a shot at the playoffs and will be significant'y better than pundits have predicted. Sure, we get some injuries to key guys and we'll be borked, but same with any other team. I'm looking forward to the real action tomorrow.

I don't think Bo has to worry as he is clearly the 3rd best if not 2nd best C on this team at this point.

Vrbata is the one who needs to be looking over his shoulder at Big Tom. Honestly the only thing Vrbata has going for him is that he shoots right and shoots a lot. Sestito might be a left hand shot but so is Burrows and look how well he did in that spot.

Also look at their career shooting % Vrbata has a lowly 9% how is he considered a lock with the Sedins when Sestito has converted on twice as many of his shots at 18%.

Advanced stats guys have it wrong its not how many shots you take, its how many that go in relative to how many you take, Duh.
