My Canucks will continue to struggle to win games and score goals this year..to bring back all the D men that are very mediocre at best? It’s gonna be a long year, but Boeser and rookie Pettersson will be a joy to watch. To early to look forward to winning the #1 draft pick and get another brother combo in Vancity w Jack Hughes? He’s a beauty..

The sharks and golden knights have to be heavy favourites in the west..but I do like the jets to take it to the next level. In the east..the lightning and pens/caps will be strong again..I’ll go with the jets/lightning playing for The cup..and my Canucks finishing w the 2nd worst record, just above the mess that is Ottawa

Thought his name was Andre? Anyway, kudos to Haminic for sticking up for a rookie on your team (Dube) of the Flames that took a borderline hit from Gudbrunson (canucks) on Wednesday nite..he broke his jaw after fighting a bigger man in Guds..I can respect a player for always backing up a teammate

So you’re looking for a good solid D men eh? My nux have cap space, and I know that Chris Tanev- when healthy might be just what you’re looking for. He’s a solid top 4 D man, wish I was a gm..

I’m not a sharks fan, but looking at their stats, it’s still pretty early. Their pp is weak right now, and the goals for/against is mid pack..they’re getting a lot of shots on net, but have a bad shooting %..I think that after 20-30 games, we’ll have a much better idea where most teams are at..

So found myself flipping to the flames/Av’s game last nite..Av’s up 4-1 after 2 periods..the boys from cow town came back w 5 straight!! Wtf...not a fan of either team, but to score 5 in the 3rd? Damn...

Quenneville is fired..wow.. hawks aren’t off to a good start..he was the longest tenured coach too, and will still collect 6 million for this year and next! He’s still winning..bet the kings wish that they didn’t already sign Willie Desjardins..

Wishes that the leafs do something w Nylander..tired of hearing his name. Trade him to Carolina and get a D man..

I listen to team 1040 a lot here..they still talk about our inconsistency tween the pipes; Elias Pettersson..how Horvat should be wearing the C already..it’s hockey talk 90% of the time, now that the caps n Lions season is done. I kinda wish that the nux would trade Tanev; he’s a solid d men- when healthy n deserves to have a chance to play w a good team..

I glanced at the game last nite; was watching my chefs vs rams..I saw at 1 point that the shots were 22-5 jets or something like that in the 1st. Back to reality for the nux..mediocre goaltending, turnovers..but we’re not the oilers..lol

The couv...I haven’t heard that in a while. I was fb friends w Brian Bradley-ex Canuck yrs ago..he used ‘the couv’ as well. He passed away a few years ago (rip) but I enjoyed talkin hockey w him. I was a lil pissed to hear my nux put Leipsic on waivers, just to hear that the queens picked him up. He wasn’t a great player (obviously) but I liked his motor n he did have some hands at times..I’ve been reading a bit about this Leivo guy..leafs fans sound upset him going..I’m sure that he’ll get a lot of ice time on the 2top lines..Boeser..Horvat..Pettersson..Virtanen..nux are struggling now, but some of us fans are still entertained and can see some talent upcoming..I can’t forget Demco and Hughes too...

I’m hoping that my young stud rookie Elias Pattersson is healthy enough to make it. Some of these ‘fans’ in the Couve are pissed w the bs non call and what these refs are doing/not doing to protect these stars..he got tangled up w Kotkaniemi of the habs and fell awkwardly: mild sprain to his knee. It happens, but to want blood and wish bad things on Kotkaniemi..c’mon, really? It’d be cool to see another nuck win mvp 2 years in a row. Boeser is pretty good, and showed everyone last year at Tampa..

I’d love to trade a struggling Lui Erickson for an overpaid Lucic..just wish that he didn’t have a fn ntc...I can’t wait to see this young kid Thatcher Demco between the pipes here soon!!

What are they saying in oil country in regards to names for a new GM? Does Mike Gillis come up? With the trade deadline approaching, I keep hearing Mike Ferlunds name..he’s having a pretty good year w the Canes, and I know a lot of teams would like to have him..

Edler has said many times that he luvs the Couv..but will he waive his NTC? The boys played well in Denver last nite..part of me would like to see the boys make the playoffs, but they won’t do shit..another good draft pick is what this club needs

The D is pretty weak..I’m surprised w the ice time that Hutton is getting, but he’s doing alright..the same can’t be said for Pouliot and Gudbranson..their +/- is brutal. I like Biega, he’s capable of playing w the club..waiting to see them bring up Hughes!

A. Mathews sure got a nice contract..where does that leave their leading scorer M.Marner now? Huge money tied up w Tavares too..what u gonna do now Dubas..
*disclaimer ~ that was painful to talk about the Leafs..and Mathews mom is kinda hot..

What are they celebrating? Just being outside of the playoffs..or that they still have a franchise in Raleigh?! Still waiting to see what happens on the trade deadline upcoming..who’s gonna be sellers/buyers..

Ummm..I’d say the jets are a heavy favourite as well. And puck the leafs...

That’s a good start...let the trades begin!

Yes..at the garage vs islanders..and I’m not Hue..

I managed to watch my nux game last night; the pp is terrible, all the injuries have caught up w the team. The isles are a legit team. I don’t see anything happening w my nux come trade deadline, as they don’t really have anything to trade. Can’t score, and the d is weak. I’m already looking at the top 10 prospects..and still waiting for them to bring up Quinn Hughes..

I’ll vote n say CBJ..to still have Panarin, And go ‘roll the dice’ and get Duchesne and Dzingel..it’s go time now in Columbus..Vegas did well too; they have so many assets being new to the league, not fair, but it is what it is..

I can’t believe that the pens picked Up Gudbranson..he has the worst + - in the league! Sure he has size and can play a lil, but he’s a bit slow. He’s a well spoken player, but just didn’t fit here in the Couve n I wish him well...I went to last nights game vs the ducks..was nice to see Horvat score 2, and to hear the fans still boo Kesler..and happy to see Markstrom get his 1st shutout of the year..

Why there isn’t a team in Quebec, I dunno..yet there’s still teams in untraditional markets w shitty attendance #’s..Florida and Phoenix err Glendale.

Guess that Letang has lost a step or what? Talking bout losing a step, how’s Gudbranson working out in Pittsburgh? Good character guy, but just didn’t work here in Vancouver..

I’m stuck waiting for a few things..Quinn Hughes making his 1st appearance as a Canuck (likely next week) the draft order on April 6th..and the actual draft here in June. If the oilers win the #1 pick I’m gonna fn lose it

Not much to cheer for here..Tanev is out for the season. But we do have this guy named ‘Petey’ that should win rookie of the year..he’s got some skills

The rivalry isn’t the same as it was 7-8 years ago, but I still luv hearing Jim Cornelison do the anthem at the madhouse..

Anyone gonna set up a playoff bracket?

The kid is as advertised..he’s gonna be a stud! That OT a few nights ago vs the kings w Petey, Boeser n Hughes..wow. The off season is gonna be interesting. Gotta resign Schenn..the D needs a top 4 player..trade goldobin, and play ‘shotgun Jake’ a lil more..Markstrom is the starter..he’s playing lights out..

I’m curious if you’re a Canadian w dual citizenship..I just can’t think of to many people from that area that are into hockey like you...

I’ll be definitely watching/listening to the habs and leafs game 2mrw..Bob Cole will be announcing his last game. He’s been an icon..I remember his voice on CBC since I was a kid. Dick Irvin too..and here in Vancouver we’ve had Jim Robison n Howie Meeker..Jim Hughson is pretty good, but has a ways to go to be mentioned w some of the greats..

The boys on my sports talk here in Vancouver we’re discussing that w all the leading point getters in the regular season, their teams have failed to move on. Marchand is an exception..with Ovi n the Caps out, I really can’t predict what’s gonna happen in the 2nd round. Hopefully some more game 7’s!!

I missed last nights game, as I was putting in led bulbs in my cyclone...and making a road trip after work to look at another game n gonna miss the nfl draft..what is wrong w me?!

I disagree..the stars/blues series is back n forth. Chances exchanged all game. There’s been some nastiness in the series, and some stellar goaltending. The other series out west has been entertaining as well

I bet a dude from work on 2nites game..he didn’t hesitate to pick the Blues..I know that Bishop has great stats n exp., but I like J. Benn (Vancouver Island kid) and I don’t want the blues to raise the cup before my nux do..

You’re not a stros/rangers fan? Another game 7 2nite! Will Macinnon lead his wild card team over Jumbo Joe and the sharks? CANT WAIT!!

Seeing all that Toronto ‘center of the universe ‘ team crap is more annoying...surprisingly no Argos crap to see either..

U look like a sportscaster! I agree, Canes are done..

No doubt..they can review an offside, but can’t review a hand pass? Still a helluva game w a late tying goal by Couture..man, he’s $..

Sharks are in for a tough game 2nite..but I’ll be cheering for whoever represents the west in the Stanley cup..PUCK the Bruins...

Maroon is a St. Louis kid..Billington is a good kid too..Boston has enough fn championships, I think that most fans will be cheering for the blues. Only negative that I can think of is that ‘Gloria ‘ song..with that said, GO BLUES!!

Add a couple double cheeseburgers n it’ll happen..anybody else catch that crazy last second goal tween the Swiss/Canadians game yesterday? Mark Stone is on

So the nhl draft is here in Hongcouver n a short bit..tix sell out for the 1st day in less then 10 minutes! Guess I’ll just watch at home and see what J. Benning does w the 10th pick..

I agree, but getting my fix by watching the IIHF in Slovakia..great game by the Fins over Russia earlier..now the Canadians playing The Czech..

J. Skinner just signed w the Sabres..he’s now the 6th highest paid winger (I think) good on him...but it’s w the Sabres..

Congrats to the blues and their fans..classic interview w O Reilly and Scott Oake after the game..FUCK YEAH...

I’m looking forward to the draft next week: free agency not far away as well. There’s a lot of big names that could be moving. My Canucks need a lot of help, but have some cap space to work with. They need to resign Brock Boeser, and then I’d like them to pursue a top 2 D man..a PK Subban would be a great acquisition, but at what length/cost..

I can’t be the only one a lil excited for 2days draft? Who’s going where, what team trades up/down picks..can’t wait for the free agency frenzy on July 1st too. On Canada day of all days. And I hope the hometown here in Vancouver gives the count errr Mr. Bettmann some big time boos....

I can’t stand the maple leafs, but interesting to see what happens w M. Marner..Dubas has work cut out on a team that is against the cap..bring on the free agency deadline!

I don’t mind the extra point for going to OT..3 on 3 and all the open ice is fun to watch. So much parody in the league..when it all comes down to it, regulation wins after 3 periods is the deciding factor if 2 teams are tied w points..and happy free agency day u puck heads!!

Hockey n football just around the corner...CANT WAIT!! And puck the leafs..
