Maybe Booner can give a post count, so we can see how many times each of us can post in one blog. I’d say you Vgh, Nucker and little Ricky would be near the ton.
Lefty would be there to but got too many personalities.

I always get a good laugh at you guys and the cap.


The have actual people on all the teams that know how to make the numbers work. Do you really think Pearson has a six-month wrist injury? Leave the numbers to Emily, she had a perfect score this year and brought the cap down right to the penny.

Don’t worry I’ll never be a guzzler. The hatred is too strong for this team

After them sucking you in for years to be a season ticket holder, I don't blame you for your hatred.

Yet you want the Russian to play with the country club players Pouty and Hughes.

Just out of curiosity, can you tell me if Kuz scores his goals against the Chicago like teams, the WILD or a combination, of good and extremely bad teams.

- Reubenkincade


I am all for trading Hughes.

You don't want more of the Benning era, yet you are one of the biggest cheerleaders for that style of thinking with the trade trade trade attitude even if the value of the return is pathetic. You are doing a lot of knee jerking and I don't think you realize it.

Today's signing does nothing but increase these players value. GMs and fans do not dissect where the goals come from. I have never seen once on here or anywhere where a GM or fan says yes he scored 30 goals but that one was against Toronto and they had their third string goalie in there or that was Chicago on a B2B night so that doesn't count. You are reaching. Thirty goal guys at the end of the year are still 30 goal guys.

I also said bring in Podz and move out BB and trade Bo.

I would say 3 of us are pretty opinionated with our hockey takes, the other is a complete troll.

He's done here. I look forward to seeing this "re-tool on the fly" that's apparently getting kickstarted by trading away a 30-40 goal 27 year old center.


Desperation moves will follow this summer.

I enjoy watching EP Kuz and Mik. It is the supporting cast that I am not thrilled with. I do find the top line entertaining though.

Woman are excellent at spending to the limit. I had a GF that was really good at nailing our grocery budget to the penny. It was impressive until you started unpacking the groceries and saw the crap she bought to round out our budget.

I am not jumping on any bandwagon. I am saying this was the first move of hopefully a half dozen moves required this year. I am not going to get upset until I see how the rest plays out. Bo trade is coming very soon and until I know what the return is I am not going to get too angry.
- VANTEL


Return won't be very good cause ...

a) he'll be a rental only; even if nucks eventually give permission he is 1 year away from having the pick of North America and nucks have given him nothing but grief and no reason to do them any favours. talking out loud and in media about what you aren't worth is no way to treat a guy been around as long as him, like him or not ... those are closed door things.
b) nucks are under the gun to not be left without a chair (like they were with miller)
c) track record; we overthink & trainwreck these decisions ... I don't put it past they 'run out of time'. this regime has proved no more capable than the previous.

I don't put enjoying watching one line ahead of sorting this team out. I'd take what I can get for Kuz and tell him to circle back to us in the summer if he like this team as much as he says. Priorities.

Enough with the constant signing and drafting wingers. The D is priority and the soon to be issue down the middle are what things they should be focusing on.

I've been pointing out to people in my social media that JR is sort of doing the same thing to Bo that he has he done to Bruce. Talking him down publicly. In this case they are trying to trade him but you have JR saying he isn't worth more than they are offering him(Boeser money). At the same time he stated that Bo's season is driving up his trade value. He's more or less telling teams if they give JR what he wants, they are getting a lemon.

The guy is a fkn retard.

It isn't knee-jerk reaction, it is about doing the right thing for once.

Also, I have mentioned before that I have some ties in the hockey world, one is the brother of a player agent, if you don't think the discussions about when and who you score against, who you match up against, how much icetime you get, do you score in close games, as opposed to games you dominate against a lower team etc. Then I don't know what to say.

Really, I don't care nearly as much as I used to, as the Benning years and now, The Bozo,Ditso and Granato days have made me re-think why I waste my time.
I will enjoy laughing at the Canucks for another decade, as I watch the Bruins do well this season, and a few teams that have taken many of the players I was hoping the Canucks take, in the draft.

Go Columbus, Go Anaheim, Go Habs and of course, Go Bruins.

- Reubenkincade


You will never convince me that selling a twenty goal Kuzmeko with no term on a contract is better than trading a thirty goal Kuzmenko with great term and great cap hit.

I also don't believe for one minute the team looking to buy analizes every single goal . If that is the case we are hooped. Bo last three goals are empty nets against bad teams.
