So are the Oil on the back end of HNIC’s doubleheader? Man, if they lose against the Kraken tonight on national TV, somebody’s losing their job. It should be GM first.

Does it matter? The only thing that counts is if the Canucks win against the Leafs, …no?

No, it would be glorious if the Leafs lose, even more glorious if they are embarrassed on national TV.

It would also be absolutely phenomenal if the Oilers lose and are embarrassed on national TV.

It would be the best for West Coast hockey fans.

Now I'm off the the local cenotaph to honor our fallen heroes.

It's actually on the players. Holland didn't do much in the off-season sure but not much room to work with signing RNH and Bouchard. They have the ingredients to win games there it would seem.

We’ve forgotten 😢. The last 10 years we gave away everything they sacrificed for.

Ya, people go to these ceremonies to pay respect and go back to their selfish lives an hour later, they took prayer out of it this year that should tell the people what they are all about.

He’s going to cost a 1st.
Apparently he wants more icetime than the 15 he’s playing right now. He’s got a reason to ask for more, guy hits like a truck and scored 11 goals last year. I imagine the list of teams asking will be long.

Do you have a player in mind at number 30?

Everyone keeps talking about regression for the Canucks as if it's some sort of secret.
They are on pace to score 372 goals. 12 teams in NHL history have scored that many in a season, and they were all in the '70s & '80s. Not exactly a hot take to say ... UNSUSTAINABLE

So we'll only win 3-1 instead of 5-2....lame

Good thing we're also second in GA in the league!

It's a very good point the skeptics are missing. This team created room for some later regression to still keep pace.

I think Canucks will be top three in scoring but right now they are plus 33 in goal differential. I don't believe at the end of the year they will be plus 180 or higher in goals differential. I think some numbers are not sustainable.

... with that being said, $10 might be good value bet that they do hit 180.

He's on the last year of his contract, move him before he does any more damage. They'll need the new guy to be good at getting the most for Drais and McTears in trades.

In 2019 Joshua Dyer (aged 14) was tasked at school to write a poem for Remembrance Day. An hour later (without any help) he produced this..


ONE THOUSAND MEN ARE WALKING

One thousand men are walking
Walking side by side
Singing songs from home
The spirit as their guide
They walk toward the light,
they walk towards the sun
they smoke and laugh and smile together
no foes to outrun.
These men live on forever
in the hearts of those they saved
a nation truly grateful
for the path of peace they paved.
They march as friends and comrades
but they do not march for war
step closer to salvation
a tranquil steady corps
the meadows lit with golden beams
a beacon for the brave
the emerald grass untrampled
a reward for what they gave.
They dream of those they left behind
and know they dream of them
forever in those poppy fields
there walks one thousand men
