7 games for Wilson

Rob is the same guy who said Benning’s presser was tragic, or whatever he said. The one Leftygem posted.

I thought that was Rob Williams?

I’m happy about the win, but they were a razors edge (a bubble Demko?) away from letting that slip away. They didn’t which is a good sign.

Same thing was said last year if we lose Markstrom.

No, Rob Fei. Ex TSN radio and Athletic contributor.

All the “media” guys have good and bad takes.

The minions rag on iMac for being a schill, the Pom-Pomers hate Thomas Drance or JPat because they are downers. It’s all BS.

Yes, this is exactly it. Without great goaltending they just aren’t good enough.

Not sure if it’s coaching or personnel. Leaning towards personnel but...

laughable, just like tonight were Schmidt played the fewest TOI for our defencemen, he’s been an ok second pairing guy, Edler & Hughes are the teams best dmen.

You're assessment on the subject is wrong.

What I’m saying is not reading something because “you know you’ll disagree” is a great way to never learn anything new.

I agree. Just as long as you don't turn into Lefty and take it as the be all end all.

Maybe to you, but you’re just one guy, as Vantel says, you’ve never worked for an NHL team in your life so really you don’t know anything ......

People like Carol , Sara Olesky ,Helene Elliot, Aaron Pourtzline , Renauld Lavoie are names at the top of reporting for me. They report , they interview , and they stick to facts. Never once have I seen any of them try to educate the fan base on how to fix the cap problem or tell you who or what the team has to do.

The others are basically clowns and the fans are bigger clowns for thinking their word is bible.

I do appreciate them braking news and reporting line ups and updates on prospects. They lose me when they say a team needs to do this and that or who they should draft.

Like Craig Button that guy is literally useless, him and pierre mcguire are my least fave.

Well.... clearly, I was the 2nd to think that.

Plus the others.

I appreciate anyone's updates . They lose me when they try to convince me.

Reading their terrible takes is important to help inform though. If you take things from both extremes, and you are semi intelligent, you can form your own opinion. If you only listened to N4U imagine your opinions of things...

Everyone’s useless, unless they support your narrative, the truth is you need to make your own decisions with all the information out there to form your own opinion.

At the end of the day each and every one of our opinions are meaningless anyways, we have no bearing on what happens in Canuckland. But it’s fun to come and shoot the shit and discuss ongoing activities.

Or when you sit there and think "how the (frank) did he come up with that"

I pick and chose what I listen too. Always gathering info and always making my own calls.

I don't need Canucks way or Canucks Army telling me 5 players that Canucks must trade before TDL.

I appreciate Fabers updates from overseas and on the Comets but I sure as hell wont read an article from Canucks Army why Benning must go.

Stop stealing my narrative.

Winky face

JTM in post game presser said he prefers playing Center. Keeps him more engaged.

Maybe Green should look at going 3 C's deep against balanced Habs.

Petey can hold his own and elevate a line with Gaudette. I wouldn't call it a 3rd line. Plus it would cause coverage problems for the other team.

I haven’t been to CA in months. Fabre writes there btw.

I listen to JPat and Drance podcast. Generally I don’t like Drance, he’s too positive most of the time, but I like to hear what he thinks because believe it or not, he has a lot of experience in the industry.

On the other hand, JPat is usually too negative, but they kind of cancel each other out.
