Well played, son.

Benning should trade the twins to Montreal for Beaulieu, Juulsen and their first

Don't start , you know I will get blamed

Na...there's no such thing as a curse, people who buy into that crap need help. The team has been poorly managed....period! They've never built a team through the draft like 99% of championship teams do....there's your answer to why they haven't won.

Drafting anywhere in the top six is gonna get them a really good young player, I just hope it's top three.

Well Mr. Unbeliever, when they end up with the sixth pick and the guy they take ends up getting traded to Calgary for a second rounder two years later, we'll all know who to blame.

Doesn't matter where they pick, they'll get a fantastic young player because Benning knows his poop when it comes to drafting.


Trading not so much

I know coaches are the first fall guys, but do you think Boudreau is on the way out? That team typically plays well but just cant get by those game 7's, its hard to pick out whats gone wrong or where they could improve. Do they shake up their core or just do the coaching thing?

Maybe the GM.

I don't know. I was joking

Can we label the Ducks as chokers yet?

Won the division 4 times in a row now and only won 3 series in 4 years.

All of those wins were against pretty weak opponents too, Stars in 2014, Jets and Flames last year.

Canucks and luck are measured in degrees of badness. (There was even an article about the Canucks Curse today.) Expecting or even hoping for them to win first overall is just setting yourself up for another routine disappointment.

Logically, given the inexplicable misfortunes of this team, the only way your desired scenario would be possible is if you were to have your heart set on something completely different.

For example: We lowly fans should wish hard for the (expected) 5th or 6th pick and a successful trade down to get two mid-round firsts. If we really and truly believe this option to be the best thing for this team then, and only then, would the Canucks end up with a top 3 pick. You know, just to screw up our plans.

Embrace the power of reverse negative visualization.

Lost two game 7's, one to the Kings, one to the Hawks....both won the Cup.

That was my first thought, as he has made at least one coaching change I can remember. But then I can't really fault him with the roster he has assembled. I wish the Canucks had a roster with half the star power and high end youth that the Ducks have been able to accumulate in all positions

I think they are also on a crazy streak of losing 4 game 7's in a row, on home ice, after being up 3-2 in the series. Definitely choker status
