Even though we are focused on all-things-footy, there must be one or two members here who have taken a side interest in hockey Matthews started the season off OK, eh? Big Canucks fan here, hoping for an improvement over last year and some progress with the youngsters!
This year's Halloween costume will be me wearing a Canucks jersey, with stylized "dumpster on fire" for head gear.
I hope Canucks stop and think before they add any players. Team is almost last in the league. It really has nothing to do with twins and their age. It's all about GM and president inability to think. Club has five or six soft players with lack of foot speed. If you lack speed than grit must be put in place. Team does not hit a fly unless Gudbranson hits a guy. Club must add few kids from Juniors with grit and size. LW is a huge hole this year. Theede over age guy free of cost could do that job better than two guys we have here. On D team gets in trouble each game due to lack of size. Players check with sticks most do not use body only Edler and Gudbranson and Biega rest go fishing. Sin box three times a game. Team could add Helm or Coghlan to fix one or two spots. In my opinion GM and president have to watch prospects forget watching Green and a team. Green is no better than WD in some areas worse. Venik should be given two years three mill per year to stay. The way I see it if you can not score 8 goals a year as a forward AHL is the place for you. Owners are way soft on two guys running the club. Just watch they will pass on Philip Zadina and go get some pencil neck. Even doe this post is old guys need to post ten times more about garbage we get to watch.
Canucks are playing for the draft pick. Its been a long time since it meant something to be a Canuck, or for that matter, a fan.
