Washington never had the assets
Cole hutson is lights out in the juniors tournament…and i like McMichaels over Rossi
yeah exploiting for you tube views is exactly what is happening.
I was hoping Quinn would end up in Washington. I thought he would fit really well in that organization
Caps fan here I was freaking out couple last days knowing that Caps going to trade top prospects picks for a rental what disaster would that be….thanks god. Minnesota what are they doing? He will leave so you have 1 year, then you going to trade him for small return 😂
You should just post a video of you crying in bed, because that’s really the truth of the feeling In Vancouver. Now, continue to post videos about how this is actually a good move, with a good return for Quinn
Jimmy Murphy 😅
Washington is an old team. We do not need their players. One young D from Montreal and younger Xhekaj we do need. Sherwood could lift Montreal to Big Cup.
I not sure how many other teams could have given Vancouver a better package for Hughes, Maybe Utah could have because of all the draft capital they had over the past 5 years?
We did good but I wish we asked for more picks. We accepted their first offer I heard
lego you to talk to much and everything that comes out of your trap is complete none sense your so far fetched you have no credibility talking thru your h⭕️le
Remember this Trade?
To Vancouver: Geoff Courtnall, Sergio Momesso, Cliff Ronning, Robert Dirk, and a 1992 5th-round pick.
To St. Louis: Dan Quinn and Garth Butcher.
Imagine the new guys from Mini are a perfect fit and the Canucks go on a crazy run and they make it to the playoffs…bye bye Gavin McKenna,
Would you rather Get McKenna or Make it to the playoffs this year?
