  1. Baltimore bridge was 100% hacking. Lights fail and captain loses control... or does he? The way I saw it is the ship veers a bit starboard by the few degrees needed to hit the column.

      loss of power, attempts were made to stop ship. Communication was made to inform those involved and in the way. Not a hard concept.

  2. A war is still going on in the Ukraine, people are like meh.
    Facebook goes down and everyone loses their minds!

      unplug from the matrix for a couple hours and people were losing their minds, so very sad. The world is at constant states of war in any number of regions at one time. People just don't think big picture. Did you know while we were a hockey obsessed city watching the 1994 Canucks Playoff run was the exact moment in time when the Rwandan genocide was happening? here we were all living and dying with every goal by the Canucks I was completely oblivious. Crazy

  3. who would you rather sign for next year, zadorov or joshua?

      I think Joshua will be priced out. Zadorov I'm not huge on but the team needs defense depth. Bring him back at close to current caphit then yes.

  4. i wish that PA would sign someone, whether it's hronek, zadorov, blueger or joshua, just to let petey know, he is holding up the team build.

    i might be out to lunch but at least, it's a thought sandwich.

      I thought I was hearing the team was working on an extension on Blueger at current. That would be a nice move, the right move to get done.

       

      I don't think Petey is holding anything up as he has communicated to the team his desire to sign later. I feel like Joshua is at a place in his career where he may need to cash in and could get north of 3m per elsewhere.

       

      Zadorov I don't have a good read on, but if he truly wanted to be a top four I just don't see it full time long term. He is a 4/5 guy to me and if he's happy here and maybe a long Playoff run sets the stage for him to be more willing to return at a not cemented top four position.

       

      Vancouver will have players like Bains, Raty, Podkolzin to name a few ready to push for spots next season to replace guys who want bigger money re: Joshua?

  5. wondering what blueger and joshua will be looking for on new contracts, next season?

    1. Mike Vanderhoek

      Got a feeling Joshua where he is at in his career is going to try hard to bank on his next deal and probably get over 3m per from another club. I think the Canucks make a strong effort to work with Blueger on a new deal and have a feeling he returns.

  6. has garland been our best player, the last few games? impressed with juulson's game too.

      May be a bump in the road developing but still think the team will battle for tops and win their division. I think much of the top talent is coasting a bit, too casual with the puck, blind low percentage drop passes and dangling with the puck into low percentage areas. Its going to happen. Just need the top guys to simplify, skate harder and cut out some of that sexiness out of their games. Nothing wrong with humbling some of the talent on the team. Those worker bees like Garland, such an awesome example for the rest of the team.

      I like what both those players bring and could not be happier for how Juulsen has really improved his overall game. But when a middle six forward and generally depth defenseman are showing as your better players its an indictment on the rest of the club.
