Funny how the EV offence and Defence have practically flipped. The primary assist numbers have tanked as well. Rutherford and Co were trying to turn an Elite offensive 1C into Sidney Crosby rather than playing to his strengths.

If your 2nd line centreman is a complementary player you won’t win a round in the playoffs let alone be a contender. Case dismissed
Rossi is a center that needs playdriving wingers. The Canucks have one (Linus Karlsson). Rossi would be a good complementary second line forward on a contender.

Got a lot of shit for this take over the summer. With the ways he’s playing and conversations I’ve had with scouts that have seen him evolve I just don’t think he’s a top 6 C in the NHL. Just far too inconsistent of a player.
I think a lot of Canucks fans are overrating Marco Rossi. He’s a 25 year old 5’9 Centre that couldn’t crack the top 6 for Minnesota in the playoffs. I’d be very shocked if he ever reaches anything above 65pts in a season.

I think it’s clear that Mancini isn’t an NHLer and Schenn either isn’t in Manny’s favour or he’s just too old. Canucks need to find a way to add a RHD to take some burden off of young D men. Right now they could probably get paid to take Lybushkin or Ceci.

Remember how electric Pavel Bure was?

Here are some clips of Sergei Skvortsov. Ridiculous talent.

He was right there at 33… Let’s hope the Rogowski pick works out
“I want to be myself.” #Blackhawks prospect Xavier Villeneuve on his impressive NCAA start, shedding the Hutson comp & giving us a peak at the work he's doing at BU to develop into impact D-man. Big praise for teammates Caleb Malhotra and Tynan Lawrence. r.org/2026/11/07/i-hate-losi…

What are Fil Hroneks thoughts on tropical tax haven Boston Massachusetts?
David Pagnotta - The Sheet - #NHLBruins : I think this team wants to add one or two pieces that are sustainable pieces, not necessarily short-term fixes but guys that have either long-term or controllable for an extended period of time and adds with their young guys, with the Mintens, with the Hagens [...] They do want a stable, another stable body on that back end. So whether it's Edvinsson or whoever else, they have been kind of exploring the blue line, the defensive market to modify or enhance their blue line. - 11/6 #NHL

Canucks fans, is this the year we draft #1? Me personally, I don’t think so and I don’t want it anyways. Getting a franchise star too early might cause this rebuild to be sped up

How can he not be the Calder favourite right now? (Yes I know Fowler exists)
TREVOR CONNELLY 😳 That's three straight games with a goal!

Mr Johnson, please do no spend more than a 4th rnd pick on this bum. He’s pointless, thank you!
I missed this originally, but Ivan Miroshnichenko wants a trade out of Washington and has permission to talk to teams to try to find a deal. The ask is reportedly a 1st-round pick+, but I would value him more in the 2nd-round pick range. Curious to see where this goes.

Buium talking about Zayne Parekh at his hall of fame speech (circa 2040)

My biggest takeaway from this game was if Buium wants to be a #1 he’s going to need work on his general athleticism more. Stamina, power and speed all need to take a step forward by the time he’s 23

I think we’re scarred from the Benning days just a bit. Buying low on NHLers you like is a good way to get valuable stop gaps while prospects develop. I don’t think they’re looking for Sven Baertschi trades where you’re giving up 2nds.
Ryan Johnson talked about 'draft picks are great, but the #canucks also have to find other players to build around'. Presented by @bet365ca

As a big hockey/soccer fan, I’m curious if we’d ever see puck-playing goalkeepers. Having a goalie that can spring a counter-attack on a powerplay would be deadly.

So what exactly happened to lambert? How did he fall year after year from 55 points in 64 games in the AHL
