People glaze over that and stick to Petey’s playoff performance and pay not being good.
- Quinn's Quest

He needs to be better, for sure, but the team is much more than him, obviously. Lots of teams had players who didn’t show up in the playoffs, that doesn’t mean it’s ok for Petey, just that happens. It’s such an extremely difficult trophy to win.

Dallas had Benn, Seguin, Hintz and Pavelski struggle in the playoffs and they still made it to the third round. Winnipeg had Ehlers, Niederreiter and Vilardi struggle and they didn’t get out of the first round.

If the Canucks are going to win they need everyone to contribute and they need to be healthy, neither of those things happened last year, but hopefully this year.

My guess is Demko had a set back or not healing as hoped so no rush. As for JR I see no reason to advertise any injury if PA is scouring the trade market that would weaken his hand.

Demko or no Demko there is focus on other areas of the game to improve PK tops the list PP certainly & Petey's line dynamics.

If so, that would be a very unfortunate turn of events. In Silovs we trust

How can you possibly have any faith in Silovs 🫠

I was being facetious, clearly. It's somehow lost on you, which doesn't surprise me given your lack of intelligence, that the team is a Cup contender. They just had one of their best seasons ever, they finished 5th in the league standings, they were +56 in goal differential, they had a 100+ point player, a Vezina nominated goaltender, Hughes just won the Norris, they got deeper over the summer, they're in a very good spot.

Dumbass...

The added some size and grit and yet he still complains. Confirmed Reuby is on team Smurf

What other options are there at the moment? Clarkie has faith in him, obviously, and he knows better than us. So, for now, just roll with it.

The D corp is big & gritty with some snarl but could use more puck moving skill. I really don’t know what some ppl expect of PA on this.

Up front there is plenty of offence & more size & speed added. Here again idk what some ppl expect PA to do.
