The Free agent market is getting to the point of lets just not do one. If tuch signs that mean cancel free agency shows.
After seeing the incredible spike in Vancouver Canucks ticket prices over the last couple years I had been hoping we wouldn't see a jump this off-season considering the lack of on Ice performance. But if they are going to drop Millions on a practice facility and the salary cap is going up a lot then I guess we're going to see another jump in prices this off season as well
Thank you.
Bouchard deserves to be a far bigger part of the Norris conversation than he has been. He's been incredible.
I'm feeling for Monty he's been struggling man. But calling up Fowler is the right move right now.
If those 3 central division gorillas beat the hell out of each other through 2 seven game series, they can be toppled in the conference final. There’s no guarantee that they cruise to the Stanley Cup just because they’re supposed to.
Don't worry, Shannon, we'll all have a new reason to laugh at the Canucks when they drop from 1st to 3rd in the draft XD
is shannon in the epstein files
Matthew Schaefer should be inn the Norris conversation
I think we forgot to mention the arniel calling out the team portion.
The Penguins are 1-10 in shootouts. Combine that with the Isles OT wins. That's the reason they are tied in points.
If Fowler is going to backup Dobes in the playoffs—it’s vital that he gets some games in before the playoffs so he can be ready if needed—still can’t believe Montreal’s biggest question mark is in goal
I could definitely see Zach winning the Norris, even if the Jackets miss the playoffs, that's not the final say in Norris voting, Fox and Karlsson are proof of that.
The 23-man roster doesn't apply going forward, does it? The players dressed, and they can't exceed the salary cap, correct? Montebeault won't be going anywhere.
The NHL should forget about ratings in US
It is funny that the Canucks were the only team without a practice facility when their owner made his money in real estate.
GTH Meurelo
I never understood this hyper-focus on practice facilities. There's something to be said about being intimately familiar with the quirks of your home ice, the boards and the glass.
HabsFanSez: Montembeault deserves another chance. Maybe next year.
What is the latest with MARK STONE? The Golden Knights desperately need Stoney back in! Without him, Vegas is done!
Oilers and Flames making the Canucks look like a beer league team with their new arenas.
Someone please release Detroit from the March curse, stop trying to kill our players, please
The main concern I have about the Canadiens calling up Fowler to replace Montembault is this: they are burning out a lot of their young goaltenders.
Is Gavin technically able to skip the draft and ultimately choose who signs him?
Brittania rink is such a weird choice of location for a practice facility. Nothing about that neighbourhood (heart of Commercial Drive) strikes me as "we have lots of space around here". Small community centre & library; a high school right next to it (and not one of Vancouver's luxurious, that's for sure). It would make more sense as a location if the Canucks still played at the Pacific Coliseum, but they don't. 🤔
Speaking of those who do, do you think the practice facility would be dual-use and the PWHL Goldeneyes would end up using it too? 🤔🤔
NO WAY THERES A FACILITY BEING BUILT
When I heard the news of the practice facility I immediately quoted Syndrome from The Incredibles; "Too late. Fifteen years too late."
My worry about the Canucks is… finishing last in the NHL. And another team will get the 1st overall pick
Bouch should be top 3. God what does he have to do. Started out shitty but in his last 12 games he has 22 points and he’s a plus player. So sick of the favorites. It was the same when Hedberg was winning year after year.
why Van is so hard to get one.
Anyone tracking how many of these 8 year extensions at 8 mil end up still being traded? Because it seems to be trending.
It's pathetic when we're the only team without a dedicated practice facility. This should have been done years ago. Many other teams play in bigger/denser populated cities. No excuses to say it's been hard to find land. Just cheap owners.
Copp and Larkin may miss 4-6 weeks. 😢
I'm not sure how much I trust these mid season writer votes, they have Cooper ahead of Ruff for the Jack Adams. The way they usually award the Adams, Ruff is the runaway winner.
Good to see Vancouver finally get an NHL team
Unbelievable
