Liquormakita is worth SFA.

It would be a mistake to trade him.

Use that development team to keep him on track, and in four or five years when the team starts to get good you can slide him in on his ELC.

Well done Carol thank you.

Only 8 points out of a WC spot small moves for help on D is the start!!

That’s a tall order to do with only 63 games remaining. I like your enthusiasm, keep it up!

Stop with your outdated nonsense. He loves Vancouver but he wants the crybaby Miller and his slug followers moved out so he can win. You included!

Use QHughes/Demko/Pod/Lackermaki to dump the long term contracts and still get something of value back

You would have to wonder what team would be willing to take Quinn Hughes and OEL or Myers? With OEL's NMC I don't see him being traded (Buyout). It would be like a shoe store that sells ice cream. It would also kill the return for QH.

It’s sad but true no matter what happens this season no one will be happy. If they trade it won’t be good. If they tank they won’t get the right draft pick. If they win it won’t be enough.

You’re starting to figure this fanbase out, didn’t take long at all.

That’s bullpoop and you know it. They’re killing each other faster than they’re giving birth. It’s a country half full of morons, being run by bigger morons.

Fastest defenseman in NHL history to 200 points. 195 games. I don’t know about you, but that surprises me.

Ya, that was pretty surprising

Lekkerimaki was a top 30 prospect coming into the season, and Mono has a lot to do with a poor start...

Thanks Carol. I had some sort of weird hope also last game that they wouldn't crumble. I was wrong.

As for the rest of you. Disgracing Carol's blog with all that poop on the first page.

Since we need to suck this season and next, we need to keep OEL beyond this season and then look to buy him out. No sense buying him out before another lost season. Let him eat minutes so younger players can ease into the league.

Also the fact that he isn't being carried by his line mates. He went from playing with SHL players to playing with kids again. Kids from his own draft class. He isn't the play driver, he's the goal scorer.

Unless he decides to start playing hockey the right way and not just be a passenger. He won't have any success.

7-1 Colorado, Makar destroys the Canucks.

Canucks don't give up any goals in the 1st, will be getting outshot 15-2 & Lefty will claim how well the Canucks are playing defensively.

He will then backtrack after Colorado starts scoring, saying how he meant, for the Canucks, they were playing good defensively and something about baby steps.

how do I truly feel?

I'm done with this core, I want a hard reset and what I suggested is the way to achieve that.

I don't know why you need to suck two seasons.

The draft you want is this year. With the trades this year (if they are serious) you can pick up two more first round picks maybe a Dman that is NHL quality. Clear the cap space and go shopping in the offseason. That is what a quality management group would do. That said we have a management group that is worse than the last ones.

next year becomes development, you don't draft this year and expect anyone outside if our top 3 pick (hopefully) to make an impact in 23-24. Keep OEL to eat hard minutes for a season and then buy him out. saves 1 year of penalty as well when we are actually competing.

So many chances for Canada but they just can’t score.

Ya, but we know you're not like the idiots who would devalue pieces like Hughes and Demko just to dump some cap. Really OEL is the only trade asset with negative value that is worth dumping. Myers has value (prob only a 3rd, but value nonetheless), Boeser, Horvat, Miller all have value. Trade those 4 and you free up over 26m in cap next year and no need to use it other than to weaponize it. Even if Miller can't be traded, that is still 18m in cap and will be replaced with ELC's or players we get to help teams in need (and get assets for our troubles)

Alphonso missing that penalty kick shifted the game. If he made that I doubt they come back.
