The Leafs and Oli Jokinen.... no surprise Nonis.

Nonis tried so hard to get Jokinen when he was GM here.... typical. He pats himself on the back no doubt for never giving up on his man...

I never followed him, but based on his points, +/-, and how often he moved around, bet we dodged a bullet by Nonuts never getting him.

People can whine about Botchford all they want, but frankly, he's pretty bang on with his assessment. Whether the Canucks decide to move any of those guys or not that's likely about their market value (as individuals, not packaged together).

well that's pretty much the equivalent of having the 10th overall pick this year and hoping mcDavid will fall to you. Would it be wonderful... yes..... is it realistic... hell no

Yup but unfortunately Tsn does not work for the Canucks and therefor does not help to drive up value on our mediocre players.

Edit: We get Botchford driving down our players values.

So when is the NHL going to get sued for billions? how many more players need to take their own life?

From what I have seen no foul play was suspected - natural causes apparently

They said not suspicious, said the same thing with Rypien.
I've heard it was a suicide.

Then useful Higgins needs to be useful on the third line. His spot on a scoring line is a wasted spot.

I don't know who was tracking the hits but Kenins definitely wasn't hitless, I saw him throw a couple.

27 games remaining I think the boys need at least 16 wins to make the playoffs, that would give them 97 points.

- LeftCoaster

Statistics keeping/ tracking by the league is atrocious... totally unreliable. it's all team by team and i'm sure Carol can provide some illumination on how it all works in more detail...

every game the announcers are literally pointing out the discrepancies...

He certainly always brings it. Love his hustle and tenacity (augmented by some decent offensive abilities. I think the third line is a good place for him)

For sure, that would be ideal
