Teams that were in the league when Van started in 1970-71, how they have done since:
Boston 3 cups 7 times missed playoffs
Rangers 1 cup 13 times missed playoffs
Montreal 8 cups 10 TMP
Leafs 0 cups 19 TMP
Sabres 0 cups 19 TMP
Wings 4 cups 16 TMP
Hawks 3 cups 10 TMP
Blues 0 cups 9 TMP
Flyers 2 cups 10 TMP
Stars 1 cup 19 TMP
Kings 2 cups 19 TMP
Pens 5 cups 15 TMP

Van 0 cups 20 TMP

Teams with no cups
STL, BUF, VAN, SJ, FLA, WPG/ARI, NSH, ATL/WPG, MIN, CLB, VGK(almost had one)

It's not good but Van certainly isn't alone. Just can't win game 7

Remember when it was like a 21 team league and the Canucks still couldn't make the playoffs or get a draft pick right?

In the 80's it was harder to get a Lions ticket, (frank)ing CFL, than a Canucks ticket.

I'm not that old. 94 playoffs was when I became a Canucks fan. I was 7

The team has had troubles. People that just whine all the time are annoying as (frank). Does anyone in real life like to listen to their friends whine constantly? There is a difference between being critical and just going "this team sucks".

Makita is even man enough to say when Stecher has a good game. #HeHatesHim

Nothing worth swinging pom poms for.

Oh yes lol
The old SweatHog Division days.
The fans whined & boom Pederson for Neely & a 1st. How many fans knew about our farm team or bothered to research them?
Very few. Lazy & not media educated days.

Yeah, fans really should have used the internet back then to get more info than just the box score and "Canucks lose again" you got from the newspaper.

Jim Robson was the best. I got news from BobMac when he was with the THN

SJ Sharks reporter today:

"Asked Erik Karlsson today about the time his new partner Vlasic speared him in Ottawa in 2016.

Karlsson: "Oh (frank), I haven’t even brought that up yet.”

(Turns to Vlasic): “(Remember) when you tried to end my life in Ottawa two years ago?”

Vlasic: “Didn’t work.”

This makes me sad to be a Canucks fan.

I doubt he does. Life is pretty chill for the players playing on the california teams. Mix in the fact that they are actually good, he might be inclined to extend

Good thing you missed the ‘70’s & ‘80’s. There wasn’t much good other than ‘82 & the Gradin Smyl Fraser line.

Now youre being a drama queen. If you cant take the civil discussions on these boards without eluding to people whining, then you shouldnt be here. I come here because everyone here brings substance, with a good decent hockey knowledge and background of the team. Its not gang mentality, its not over the top whining, its people who dont share your opinion, so get over it

Probably because they don’t recognize there are questions to ask. Never playing the game gives them no basis to understand this.

We had a great team for ten years. Nothing wrong with saying this is a last place team right now. Honestly, I have very high hopes for next year in terms of actually taking steps. This year is rock bottom IMO. d and goalies are bad, not much scoring.

man the isles have like 1/2 their forwards join UFA next year and traded a lot of picks... bubble team and if things go bad, they could go really bad

Gee thx for that 👍
Nothing wrong with appreciating what we had & acknowledging where we are at now.

Exhibition black outs why? 😂😂

Yeah, team isnt finished building. Probably coming down the hill now but just barely. Will be like the rest of the teams that just surged up the standings one year. Young good players are still young.

Yup. Were already seeing signs of growing pains watching Boeser squeeze the stick a bit. It's fine, going to be a fun power play but a lot of losses with the D/goalies we have. If were lucky, some older guys play well/are healthy enough to get dealt. Hoping to see a lot of call ups too, I'll be looking for those Utica lifestreams this year

Guddy isn't the problem, he's essentially the Beagle of the back end. Better then the other options but lower doesn the lineup on a .500 hockey team.

Location bet that Gaunce stays up to start?
