Glad to see you posting again!
You've had a heck of a summer. Hope things are as good as can be expected.

I guess he's going to need to start fighting.

He's a driven player with a high compete level and a record of excellence. Hopefully, he will shine in with the leadership mantle.

Oh yeah, it's been an adventure for sure. Very fortunate to have the family and support that we do, as well as the means to take care of ourselves. It was stressful, but we were able to evacuate and find accommodations fairly smoothly. Finally got back home last week and just starting to re-acclimate.

The final piece of the puzzle, Hughes should easily win the Mark Messier leadership award, as well as the Norris, Demko wins the Vezina and Pouty wins Hart, Art Ross and the Selke, while Kuzmenko wins the Rocket Richard.
The team wins 1st overall draft pick.
Canucks going to load up on awards.

Good to hear you're home safely after quite the unplanned adventure.
I'll let you get acclimatized here before I ask if you were still able to make pom-poms while evacuated. That can wait until tomorrow

Hell of a good player but I am not sold on the captaincy. Doesn't matter what I think it is done and over. Canucks taking care of business.

A few things left to do. I hear Pearson is coming back with an A so someone needs to be moved, but I don't think it will happen today. Canucks should let QH enjoy his day in the limelight and back to business tomorrow.

I would have been flying Canucks flags out the car window all the way down if I wasn't worried someone in AB would shoot me for it

Be prepared to get a PM from Turd Ferguson now that you've mentioned Alberta in a less than inviting light.

As much as I like to poop on them, I do have to say the people of Alberta were extremely kind and generous when it came to welcoming us in from the evacuation. Lots of good stories came out of a rough situation.

Still hate their hockey teams though.

Bo chased out of Vancouver because a real captain will enforce. Going to be exciting watching QH bust some heads if anyone (frank)s with Petey.

Boy don't we all love watching McDavid, Kopitar, Crosby, Stamkos and Tavares beat guys up? That's really what great captains do

Yeah if folks lost their poop about Bo not being physical, be interesting the reaction here.

I'm not against the choice at all - all different kinds of captains. Canucks have always leaned more to the 'lead by example' model. It does make me wonder if Petey's days are numbered though. Another log on the fire for conspiracy theorists such as myself that think Petey is not long for Vancity.

Forget QH

What a day to be out without your shovel and bucket.

I wouldn't waste a perfectly good C note on this group.
