I love Hunter S Thompson, this is him and his neighbour shooting at each other.

Same.
Wasn't his neighbour John Denver? They hated each other.

Dhaliwal confirming on his show this morning what a lot of us already knew: that Travis Green's $2.7M owed this year is a big factor in why Boudreau is still the coach at this point.

Yup, I'd add 2nd round picks to that. Yes, you may only hit one one out of every 3 or 4 of them, but just hitting on one of those and getting a legit top 4 homegrown dmen would be huge for this team right now
- Nucker101

Canucks have picked 3 defenders in the first 2 rounds of the draft in 12 years or something. That's ridiculous.

I'd like to know how many defenders Canucks have chosen overall compared to other teams over the past decade. That would take a while, if the rain keeps up, I may have my findings by the end of the week.

Yup FA is a cheap bastard, he'll spend to the cap on shitty players but that's it.

So much mismanagement


26th in the league in wins over the past decade.

Only teams worse were:
DET
OTT
BUF
NJD
ARI

And DET/OTT/BUF/NJD are better setup for the future than the Canucks right now with more cap flexibility and less bad contracts with term remaining.

Arizona is a clown show, so that's who the Canucks are paired with.


Fans are negative for a reason here, it's been a frustrating decade

Going back a year or two more Canucks jump up quite a bit. Past 1005 games Canucks are 19th. Doesn't change the fact that they have been mismanaged. Current management hasn't been all that inspiring either. The first direction they have chosen seems to be have been the wrong one.

OEL-Myers reunited too




Bold decisions by Bruce, desperate Sens team have last change at home too with a dangerous top 6.


Hopefully Martin is on his A game tonight


Edit: I see that Sens have Zub injured. This could be a high scoring game, neither have any good defensive top 4 dmen
