Apparently Linden’s been selling some of his own memorabilia online in auctions and it’s not for charity

Either he no longer gives a poop about the Canucks or he needs the cash flow lol

The gym business sucks particularly now you have to do reno's for all the types of bathrooms you need.

I don't think this management group is committed to a full rebuild. I think they are trying to trade across like Calgary. They signed Kuz to 2 years because they want to win now. Trading Demko isn't a good move if that is the case. And certainly losing to him 16 times isn't a good idea. It will be bubble Demko everytime we see him...

But maybe they are going full re-build if the price is right. God knows we need a Burkie/Quinn like set of trades to right the ship

You have to wonder what the long term plan is.

They’ve signed late 20’s Miller for 7 years, traded away a 2nd to dump JD, bridge deal’s Kuz and traded Bo for futures all within a few months. To me those are two very different set of moves that contradict each other

- Nucker101


Probably since the team underachieved in their minds as they thought it would be a playoff team... Hopefully they realize the truth and we work towards the future.

I’m not buying into the rebuild yet. Fully expect them to try to make moves to get this team into the playoffs as soon as next year

Like if they trade Demko they’ll be chasing a starting goalie. They’ll still be trying to add legit NHL players even if it costs them picks.

The definition of a franchise that won’t rebuild. Canucks are trying to follow that path

And people wonder why Canadian teams suck lol

Miller and JD scream a Management/Owner that think hey are better than they were (a lot of us did). Bo shows they realized they were wrong and traded. Kuz is either the offers werent there or EP expressed that he wants him around. You always keep stars happy as best you can.

I still don’t buy into the EP theory. He’s close with Brock who they booted off of PP1 and had playing with Dries and now are shopping. One of his best friends got sent down to the AHL. They just traded away the leading goal scorer on this team. And now there’s Demko chatter. Not sure how that’s catering to EP at all.

It was and is extremely difficult, stressful for sure. She managed to find people though, but it's an ongoing battle and it's not easy dealing with young entitled twats. Mostly the guys, the girls are relatively low maintenance compared to the guys working there. Thankfully the ratio is about five to one.

They all got Pretty entitled once the pandemic started. I’ve always wanted to own a bar or
Restaurant. Must be fun/ rewarding when it’s running smoothly

I think the Demko chatter is a distraction. No one is paying premium $ for a guy that has been injured for the last 2 months (and had a couple of hip surgeries previously...)

Good afternoon and how are yah.

Miller is hopefully traded next.

Nobody is getting the C until Horvat resigns in the off season after the cap is cleared up by dealing Miller.
Horvat is the next captain.
Dare to dream.

Good to see you back Pressy. Stick around.

The next 3-5 years won't matter in that regard if this team is truly rebuilding. I don't care where he goes, I care about what they get back.

Watch and see how Hockey and Sports in general changes in this decade. Winning the cup is great but will not be as big as some of the other stuff suck as the draft, fantasy sports and pools, Tanking and building a top contender.

Sports betting is going to be huge. I know a lot of this sounds like what you call tinfoil theory, but you can only have one winner and the best way to keep all fans engaged is by making them feel like they are part of the process.

Everyone thinks they are an expert and can fix the problem but there is no one solution to building a champion or else everyone would be using it.

I think soon you will see the JRs and old boys club removed from the game and a fresher look like Dubass will be more common. I guess I am saying change is coming soon.

Like BeHaUs says Tik Tok.

Raty's points from the AHL this season. Looks not bad offensively.

Allvin was asked if the core of the team is untouchable (EP, Hughes and Demko)

Allvin: It's hard to say we're sitting at the bottom of the league...those players are high elite players. You need something significant in return to even consider it.

Just seen a headline "Horvat trade will take time to digest".

I think that is an excellent way to put it. I think the trade today is underwhelming, but I need to wait and see what becomes of it in the future.

I think we’re already headed down this path, but I still having your favourite team win it all trumps any fantasy league wins or winning a few hundred dollars on a gambling site.

But yeah you’ll likely see more Dubas types than JR’s.

To me it’s all about the big picture, Raty and the puck aside, if it’s the start of a direction change then great, if it not then let the circus continue
