Hi. I’m “Gio Palermo”, also known as “legorocks99” (“legorocks99Gaming”, “LR99Gaming”, or “LR99”). I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics. These videos are uploaded with “NHL 25” gameplay in the background. I enjoy making these videos and I hope that you enjoy watching them!

  1. Zadorov is bad and that contract is worse. The infatuation with him is insane. We have better things coming up the pipes.

  2. Congrats on 50k Lego your the only tolerable Canuck personality on YouTube so you earned it you got one flames fan who enjoys your content haha

  3. No dog in this fight, per se, but I wouldn't call what Milstein said as "biting back". He's a member of the peanut gallery that merely quipped about the answers Rutherford gave in an attempt to draw ire away from his client.

  4. Love Zadorov, I understand he wants to go to somewhere that pays him 3 million more. He wanted to stay in Vancouver for sure but I understand how irresistable 3 million dollars is

  5. Am I the only one noticing that Rutherford likes to point a lot of fingers over different things that are negative about this organization, but does not really take ownership to the management's role in these things?

    From management's handling of Boudreau's firing, to the choice of offering both Miller and Petey big contracts with NMC when they know those two could not get along (assuming the story reported about the rift is true), to the team's decision to allow the defence to go into shambles in the off-season (but focused on "upgrading" the forward group), and now to this Zadorov thing. This is not to say the Rutherford-Allvin regime has not made some very astute moves or that they are 100% to blame for all the ills of the franchise, but they are certainly partially responsible or very responsible for a lot of problems that we are seeing too. Canadian teams are naturally in a tougher situation because of our taxes – for Rutherford to say the Canucks have "matched" the Boston offer is only half truth. Zadorov is getting more take-home money by signing with Boston. Why try to paint a negative picture of a departed player or imply something negative about the player agent too? That cannot be good for future business dealings…

  6. I know a lot of people make the point about lower taxes in the states ..which is true ..but when you’re getting paid out in USD and playing and living in Canada the 25-30 cents exchange really narrows that gap back down

  7. give me a break. Do teams not budge somtimes and make RFAs accept a bridge contract cause they are still not sure to lock the player up? Forgive me for not caring if a player and/or agent uses 1 team to get what they want from another.. Canucks need to focus on fixing their disfunctional dressingroom. Inwhich I lay that blame solely at the franchise management incl coaching staff for letting it get this far out of control. What a diaper rash organization

  8. Why you guys slobbering over zaddy. Despite what he says, he didn’t want to stay in Vancouver. That’s it. Case closed. State taxes in Mass about a wash with BC taxes btw
