Toughness isn’t fighting. It’s being hard to play against. Winning board battles. Overcoming adversity. Etc. Canucks are dead last in all of these areas
- CanuckDon


Hmmm... you used the term "hugs before thugs". So fighters are not thugs... thugs are the ones that "win board battles, overcome adversity etc"... my bad.

I might be a bit old school, but back in the day "learning how to win", was simply "losing".

Yup, but that was direct and mean.

Perhaps one should use the "term"...

The Canucks have several areas to work on in order to be a good hockey team.

Love this old quote

Harry Neale: "Al, these a**holes don't deserve a winner."

Al Davidson (CKNW reporter): "You're live on the radio right now, Harry."

Neale: "You're right Al. I shouldn't call these a**holes a**holes."

[Neale was Canucks coach at the time, reacting to Van crowd cheering for Habs]

You seem to be pleased with this teams compete. You are either the stupidest person on the internet or trolling. Good day

No, the stupidest person on the internet thinks I'm happy with this team's compete while most others want me to stop complaining about the Canucks.


Was only a few weeks ago you were giving me grief for it because fans wanted to look for the positives.

I wasnt happy with the moves this team made. You got in my face about it.

I wasnt happy with the moves this team didnt make. You got in my face about it.

I wasnt happy with Bruce's decisions. You got in my face about it.

I wasnt happy with Miller's attitude on this team or his contract. You got in my face about it.

I am not happy with this team.


You seem to push back on a lot of things people are unhappy about with this team yet you get in their face about being content with this team. You must have gotten into lefty's Oxy stash.

It’s fluid right now.

Nuck4U or Nuckup or whatever he goes by now is the only constant.

I honestly don't care enough this year. I watch as much or as little as I feel like on game night.

If you want high draft picks, then you need to do a lot of losing, so I am buckled in and not angry. I would be less calm if they finish as a bubble team.

If you want to have a good team then you have to make a decision to win often or lose often, none of this sitting in the middle.

Like Benning, tanking by accident... this is what's so frustrating. also, we * almost all know there is a good chance this team wins enough at some point that it will be a failed tank on top of missing playoffs... insult to injury is the new contract commitments. New Boss same as the old boss...

I don't like Rutherford but this is where I hope his past experience of owning two elite players (Crosby and Malkin) comes in and he says get Bedard. They only need to repeat their first 12 games six more times and they will be in the running for a top pick.
