Pretty sure the top 3 are no brainer picks.
They will play to win, but me wanting them to lose doesn't make me a bad fan, it actually makes me a good fan. I see things clearly, those of you wanting them to win are actually supporting them losing long term.

I'm a better fan than you.

You just put words into the conversation that I didn't bring up or identify, politics should be in your future... .

You are a good fan, as am I, we have different views on an outcome not in our control, I agree about the top 3 being no brainers, but the canucks mindset will not permit tanking, so I see 5 to 10 range and no clear absolute choice for JB, there will be hundreds of posts on who should be targeted.

So go canucks go....

Well when 4 outta 6 teams make the playoffs yes.
When only win 2 rounds yes.

As for debatable maybe but no D has won the scoring race since nor posted a +/- like he did nor made the the entire team better. Esposito n all others were be eficiaries of Orr n made Cherry who he is he is if u even like Grapes.

Gretzky came along after n changed hockey like only he could.

That all said no player did it all like Orr did.
Who can name any flaw or weakness in his his game?

- Nighthawk

That's just the thing…there wasn't any weaknesses in Orrs game period. He is the most 'complete' player to ever play the game regardless of era. Gretzky was unreal sure but saying Gretzky was the best ever based on stats is like saying Michael Jackson was the greatest musician ever based on record sales. Orr will never be touched. Best ever.

You create your own luck. You've got to be good to be lucky...

Edit: good to be lucky was a bad analogy

- Scooby_Doo


True once more but the players control only what can happen on the ice.
I want winners with character who don't know the meaning of quitting or losing.
Top management on down to the players.
I respect that foremost n always expect it to be top priority.

I can live with the results n what pick we get n not use as a woulda coulda excuse.

Hank Aaron comes to my mind when its a complete player adding to that facing death threats when about to break Ruths HR record.

Add Jackie Robinson also

They aren't the same person. One was a golfer, one a golf course architect.

For all of my fans out there😂😂

A lil points of note i was fortunate to experince.
As a young kid I met n had dinner with Sittler when he's trying out for the Leafs as a rookie. I actually liked the Leafs after that til Ballard made me hate them😂😂
Next up i met Ali who trained in my gym in North Vancouver for the Chuvalo fight.
My mom took a pic with Ali and myself n also have his autograph.
Lastly my bud n I worked the '72 Canada/Russia game here.
Obviously at the time it was great but we never knew how it would end up.
That became the most memorable time in all Canada's sporting existence.

Henderson. Henderson still rings in my ears while our whole high school watched n all classes were put on hold n time stopped.
