Yeah, good on you for engaging with politicians to try and change the things you believe in, even if those things are (frank)ing mental. No citizen needs to own a firearm.

Why is that?

Honestly, I don’t think the Canucks’ room is strong enough to handle Kane. I don’t really think Edmonton’s is either. If they find the cap space to extend him I bet they regret it before next post season. Can’t deny he’s absolutely tearing it up though…

Canucks should add a pest like lapierre. That will make Evander immature again.

Why is that?

There is literally no need. There should be no “right” to own.

Just a reminder, this is a hockey thread. Out of respect for Carol and Makita, please keep it that way. There’s a spot to discuss your feelings on current political events, it’s not here.

If the Oilers get past the Flames, which they 100% will, Kane might break this record.


“No one has scored more than 15 goals in one #StanleyCup  playoffs over the last 25 years (Sidney Crosby, 2009, and Alex Ovechkin, 2018).

Evander Kane currently has 12 for the #oilers and he's still in the second round.”

Too expensive, go for a 2nd and hope you luck out on a sleeper.

If you want to hunt game then I have no problem with someone owning a hunting rifle. Hunting rifles aren’t the problem in the US. Assault rifles and hand guns are not meant for hunting game. They were created to hunt people. That’s the issue with gun ownership for me.

If the Oilers get past the Flames, which they 100% will, Kane might break this record.

He's right. America is fast becoming the worst place to live because of greedy old men, and a few young ones trying to get what they have.

I can’t see him wanting to leave playing with two of the top five players in the world. If the Oilers had a goaltender they’d give Colorado a run for their money.

Meh. Marky has shat the bed this series. I think if he played like he did this season/previous series, Edmonton wouldn't look as dangerous.

McDavid, Draisaitl, Kane & Hyman are just outplaying Calgary’s top guys, and it’s glorious to watch

I think McDavid has 69 points in his last 35 games…kids unbelievable.

Elliotte: I think the Miller extension is going to be a tough thing to do.

@DonnieandDhali

True, but Marky's best save percentage this series is .882, which is pretty terrible for playoff goaltending.

I think the Avs' big guns will keep up Edmonton's (minus McDavid), and they have the better defense and goalie to boot.

Yeah, I don’t think they’ll get by the Avs. Looks like a Colorado vs Tampa final….and it’ll be a great one

The guy looks like he only tries when he wants to, he’s so skilled.

On a Miller trade…

——————————————————

“A league exec weighs in

We used a phone-a-friend to help us out a bit here.

“Getting a potential top pairing defenceman is the key to getting a fair return,” one anonymous league executive — not affiliated with the Canucks — told CanucksArmy. “A mid-round first could be a bust, and Chytil is an okay piece, but not great. Schneider, Chytil and a 1st is probably what’s necessary and I think adding a second-round pick is required. Miller is one of the top players in the game. It has to be a haul, and even if it is, the Canucks still may lose the trade.””

“Minimizing risk, and the Braden Schneider thing

Any trade has risk involved, and for the Canucks, it’s all about minimizing that risk by increasing both the quality and the quantity of the future assets they’re getting in return.

Which is why it’s not hard to understand why the club seemed dead set on acquiring Braden Schneider in any deal involving Miller.

Schneider is a big right-shot defenceman with serious top-4 potential. Right now, he’s playing on the Rangers’ third pairing, and is showing all the signs of a player who could one day play with Quinn Hughes both now and down the line as well.

The only issue is, those are also the exact reasons the Rangers are likely to continue to refuse to offer him up in any trade, regardless of what the return is.

Although the Rangers don’t seem keen on moving Schneider at the current moment, it is worth noting that they have two very solid defencemen in Adam Fox and Jacob Trouba on the right side who presumably will keep Schneider out of the top 4 for the foreseeable future.

We’re not saying the Rangers will look at this situation and change their minds for sure, but there’s definitely a possibility that they’re more willing to move Schneider after getting a chance to evaluate their team during their current playoff run.”

If they get knocked out they'll trade for Miller in the off season. Schneider something and a 1st. Both sides will win. Van long term Rangers short term for a cup run or three
