Westcoast express says otherwise.
I can see the Meatball line being very effective.

I think names are stupid. I would be embarrassed to have a name attached. The only line I ever really accepted was the Lotto line just because the numbers worked.

I take that back when I was a kid I liked the name French Connection so that goes back half a century.

Brock Boeser is on pace for 45 goals and I don’t even think he’s been close to his ceiling this year. His peak season might be like 60 goals at some point

- Reubenkincade

Wow that's a pretty bad evaluation of Boeser's game

He's pretty much playing to his max potential this year

Rick Dhaliwal reported (Halford & Brough) that Jacob Truscott will not sign with the #Canucks   

This may just be a case of musical chairs.

Wolanin and Hirose are signed next year. Meanwhile, Elias Pettersson and Kirill Kudryavtsev are available to make the jump.

That's a shame, I was enjoying keeping up with his development.

Ok Meatball line it is. If your ok with the
Lotto line and the racist French Connection line, then why not the Meatballs?

I put him in a few mock trades for some depth pieces last week.

I’m suprised that your not working with an NHL team, with all that untapped knowledge you claim to have,

I think Canucks should sell high on him. I like him but I think this is the best you are going to see of him. He will want a big raise and finances tell us it is not possible to give everyone a raise.

If Canucks can pull off some sort of trade for a first round pick and a very good prospect then I would look at it.

Rossi and a first from Mini
Wifi and a first from the Habs
Crouse and Cooley Yotes


Something like that.

I think what you are looking for here is common sense.

If they could get a 5th round pick back for him. Should do it.

Was thinking about this today. Is any general manager even close to Patrik Allvin for GM of the year? No one else is in the same area code.


Yeah, he is probably leading right now.

Almost all the media talks Rutherford when they are mentioning the success. If PA is mentioned, it's "and Patrick Allvin". I almost never hear PA alone in any discussion unless it's fans and even then, a lot of them put JR ahead of him in the mention. Myself, I just say management now.

It seems with all this talk of the award, PA is still hard pressed to get credit outside of this market which seems divided to begin with.

Only an ignorant fool wouldn't give *any* credit to Benning for this core... but make no mistake, Benning made it as far as he was going to get.

Credit where credit is due. Top 4 scorers on the team right now were acquired by Benning.

Dakota Joshua ‘week to week’ according to Rick Tocchet

Vancouver’s Nils Hoglander has been fined $2,864.58, the maximum allowable under the CBA, for high-sticking Detroit’s Jake Walman.


I guess the league didn't like the Canucks showing up Walman.

It was a (frank) all high stick.


Meanwhile it was Hoglander sitting on the bench with blood pouring out of his face from a Detroit high stick.

This league is a fkn joke.

And Benning again. He was just before his time.

I really do wonder what DOPs is thinking a lot of the time. They spin a wheel? Throwing darts at a board? Pin the tail on the suspension?

The writing was on the wall when they released a statement about any retribution for the goal celebration. They went out of their way to treat that high stick as revenge. Probably to send a message to other teams. So we get fkd over politics.

I'm surprised they didnt fine Z for his electric boogaloo....
