More rules & penalties some gutless refs will ignore probably.

Other than Motte our bottom 6 were pussles. Old time hockey pounding D was impossible. Add JV & he’s useless as he showed.
- Nighthawk


I would even add Motte (just my opinion) Good for him he is the best bottom 6 guy not so good for Canucks. Motte Highmore Vesey Boyd ZacMac Rouessel everyone should go.

I just seen a Tweet from Eugenie Bouchard saying she was on her way to Kes's House. I was going to tell her to watch out for her goodies , but I kept my mouth shut.

Moved on from that. Wasn’t pissed wrong call. On to refs & the league micro managing the game generally speaking.

MacEwen overrated other than the odd fight. Motte is far from losing his job. Highmore gets another looksee. Vesey is useless & never did like him. Boyd was cuz of injury & stuck with Beagle but easily replaced. Roussel is washed up.

Lind &/or Lockwood cheap can easily replace those bums.

3rd line needs a legit 3C to key the depth & scoring.

4th line with Motte Lind Lockwood would be ideal if Lind can hold his own. Gritty & energy pest line

I keep Zmac and Motte out of that group. I can't see us getting a miraculous depth influx to scorch that much earth in the bottom 6. Especially if they let Sutter walk. Jake's as good as gone. It's too much.

I’d like MacEwen as 4C but he doesn’t do enough of anything.
Rather a cheap Graovac if necessary.

Too soft for my liking. Graovac has earned another contract for sure. But he has been injury prone for the last 2 years.

Rewatching TB/Car game...

Quite a lousy call on Svechnikov & Aho cross checked. No wonder Brind’amour gets pissed with refs

A free agent I like is Armia . Good size and Speed.
You never know could even have Podz in the bottom 6 ( Nah)
A player like Greenway could be the # 8 on the protection list and a trade.

Lots of things could happen except bringing back the same guys . The GM can't make a big speech two weeks prior about changes and the only change is to add a prospect.

Yup but better than pricey old & useless. More speed & pesky.

The old 6 was as soft if not softer.

Prefer Pod 3rd wheel 1st line so more depth with Bo & Boeser.
Bumps Hog down for more depth on the 3rd.

Greenway will be pricey & I want him but the cost will hurt.

Armia be real nice cheap.

JB said aggressive & if not the bottom 6 &/or RHD added idk what he means.

Not being able to stay in the lineup as a healthy top pick at his age is damning

Wasn’t there something about cap space that kept OJ out of the lineup? I’m pretty sure Green said he couldn’t use OJ more because there was no room for him.

There was something about cap space but idk if it applied to OJ’s playing. Thought it was Rathbone.

I seen earlier you guys discussing first round picks and I was thinking there is a good chance Canucks say we would rather Reinhart and are willing to trade it to get SR. Doing that also allows the team to move Miller to 2C and BO Pearson and Pods to the third line . That is a hell of an upgrade from last years Sutter Gauds and Jake.

Fitting in SR’s cap be wizardly if done. Not impressed with Miller as a C he’s better if featured with stars. So...

Miller Petey Pod
Pearson Bo Boeser
Hoglander Rhino Lockwood
Motte Graovac Lind

Something like that depending on the price to get Sammy.

OJ/1st/MacEwen?

I imagine SR would cost 6 mil a year. It is not really wizardry . Benning said they may buy out some players and Jake and Holtby have a savings of 6 mil. If you are going to make moves this might be the year to do it.

Hoping to terminate Jake tbh.
Tired of him & his act.

Holtby yes if seeking cap space but idk. Who backs up Demko?

I bury LE & Roussel in Abby to either force retiring or mentor kids.

Will JB use Abby to shorten the roster from 23 for cap space as did the Leafs?
