  1. Bill Zito continues his generational run. Getting that level of return for a player that in all likelihood doesn't crack the Panthers lineup. Teams will always want a second at the deadline while not all teams would've been invested in Sourdif. Especially if he couldn't crack the roster yet again this season.

  2. I don’t mine the Sourdif trade. I expect caps to be bad next year so I hope that picks becomes a low 2nd close to a first.

  3. That's the first thing I thought of when seeing the Abbottsfird celebration video was wow they are swearing a lot for the crowd probably being almost 40% kids if not more

  4. The Panthers rally had a good amount of profanity in it so put some earmuffs on the kids

    Exactly, you gotta splurge on that championship merchandise because as you said, you'll never know if it'll happen again.

  5. It's a shame the Canucks celebration couldn't be more family-friendly. Sounds like a continuation from the night they won it, with Di Guiseppe flipping off Checkers fans (on camera). Not a great look.

  6. Really sad to see Sourdif leave from the Checkers, but I guess if Florida doesn't have room for him to move up, then it makes sense to move him. After watching him in Charlotte the last few years, I'd say he's ready for that next step. He's physical, patient with the puck and always stands out in the AHL. I really hope to see him on the Caps and not the Bears.

  7. That Sourdif trade is a real head scratcher. How can you get 2nd round pick for unproven player. If Florida would have gotten just the 6th I wouldn't have bat an eye.

  8. as someone with a september 30th birthday….going to a regular season hockey game on my birthday would be really cool!

  9. extend Garland? He is such a sniper hahahaha.rag the puck lose the puck ,casually skate to the bench…what a joke

  10. Connor Garland was one of my favorite Coyotes and while I appreciate his career timeline did not fit into the rebuild, I was sorry to see him traded. I’m pleased he has found a solid place on the team in Vancouver.

  11. We were at the training camp last year and Garland is fantastic. He was one of the first guys to spend a lot of time signing autographs for fans and his work ethic and attitude is what the Canucks need. Would love to see him with an A on his jersey. He’s always one of the last ones off the ice congratulating players after a win. He has totally earned that contract.

  12. As a Capitals fan, it feels like we overpaid for Sourdif. He's going to have to be a solid bottom six forward for this to not be a bad trade. I am pretty happy with our forwards, especially if we keep Beauvillier. I'm worried this trade signals that Beauvillier won't return. The alternative is that Leonard, Cristall, or Miroshnichenko won't be in the lineup next season. I really feel that all three are ready to be starting forwards for Washington. I like Ethen Frank and Sonny Milano as our depth forwards outside of the starting 12 forwards. Now we add Sourdif to that mix, because he's not waiver exempt. So after paying this big of a price for Sourdif, there's no chance he gets exposed to waivers in an attempt to send him down to Hershey.

    Sourdif could work out and be worth what we paid for him, but I am skeptical. Especially since I feel like we already had guys who deserved to be given the opportunity to play (especially Ethen Frank). But he does seem like an Ethen Frank type player (small, fast), but with much better defense than Ethen Frank. I am sure we're going to love him as a player. I just don't think he was worth the price we paid for him. If Sourdif can be a bottom six center, that pretty much guarantees that he's worth the price. But I don't know if he's good enough to be a bottom six center (possibly Dowd's replacement).

  13. Great meeting you before the celebration last night! Appreciate the photo and quick chat on our… beloved… Canuckleheads!

  14. Saw a video of the Abby celebration and kind of disappointed with the language. Sure there were lots of kids there and maybe locker room language stays in the locker room? Maybe there is a reason they are minor leaguers…not acting professional at all. One or two f bombs is a lot different than a few players dropping 10 each…..seriously

  15. Also it's funny how ltir only gets looked at now after the bolts and knights🎉
    It took the cats to use it for a change

  16. Glad to see that the Canucks are keeping Garland but I'm still sad that management had no love for Boeser. Kane is not someone I want to see replacing him.
