He actually has four starters, but who's counting

Two starters. Bobrovski and Varlamov.

I have one starter...if you count the AHL...thanks Bernier.

I had to make a trade giving up a good prospect for that vortex they call Mike Smith

I had to give up a bunch as well because I had three backups and part timer Pavelec, who went on the IR.

Even the league doesn't like Marchand apparently, 5k for a deliberate spear I thought for sure Prust would get a game... not like it would make a lick of difference to our lineup and woes offensively and defensively.

Not that I'm against us sucking, but if we suck like Edmonton, expect this team to get sold and possibly moved to Seattle which the NHL wants a team there. Moving Vancouver which is less than 2 1/2 hours away to there would be a slam dunk. So people wanting 1OA picks, just be careful, this isn't Toronto/Edmonton/Calgary where the fan support is so solid that people will buy tickets just to watch hockey.

Close number 2 I'd say, right behind Schultz is a Norris caliber defenceman.

I agree normally but hey, this was Marchand. Truth is I like the little rat, we could use a few guys like him. Willy looks defeated behind the bench but he can only coach and the players are just plain fringe, too many of them. Thank god we have the Sedins for maybe a couple more years. Who the heck is going to replace them??

Matthews when we draft him. We will use our other picks for defense/trade for defense.

Lower bowl seats going for 50 bucks tonight. Isn't this what "real" fans wanted for so long? I sure hope these "real " fans fill the Rog every once in a while to root for the home team. Because after Saturday nights no-show. i will be surprised if there are 15k fans there tonight.

Thinking about attending a game soon if I can get a couple tickets for under $100, it is one thing to make the tickets affordable, but the product still has to entertain, win or lose.

It's times like these when I go to watch the visiting teams talent. I still hope and cheer for a Canuck win but am a hockey fan in general and enjoy the speed and pace of an NHL game.

That's not how it works. poopty team, cheapish tickets; good team, sell your first born. If you want to watch a good team for cheap, try Tampa or Nashville.

I can appreciate that. If we are going to lose, just want to see a good honest effort and not be embarrassed too often.

A team in the Canucks position is going to lose, I just don't like to see them get beat up in the process without any push back. as it felt against the Ducks. A little better against the Bruins

Just want to see the effort. Don't want a team that expects to lose and goes about playing that same way.

A few years ago I saw the Ducks against Sharks in Anaheim, it was fun. Anytime you go to the states, it is worth a look to see how much tickets are.

Agreed. I'd actually really like to see a game in Nashville. Sounds like a pretty cool town.

Not a chance. You have a chance at a generational player , you take it or get run out of town


Edit . I re read your post I stand corrected

Nucker has 6 fuken goalies . Is this pool thing a joke or what.

If GMs are allowed to protect more than 1 goalie a year after this year then someone can take my team.

- VANTEL



If I have to drop one of my Goalies Who I gave up a top 10 player for I am gone. Redraft if you want to make changes like that.... he picked up NA goalies with potential and now they are hitting that potential... Stop being jealous for not spending the time to pick up those players. How many goalies have you traded?

You can't change rules of a keeper league that dramatically!! It is not fair to managers that have built there teams to play by the current system. Just because you haven't succeeded building a team yet while handling multiple teams in this league doesn't mean we have to ditch what we built to make you more competitive.

The only way wholesale changes can be made like you suggest is a redraft.

They were changed drastically after the first year to add more stats and starts by goalies .
