im sure next year will be tanking one last time too. hopefully not

only tanev will realistically remain from the current core if we intend to rebuild for real (edler will either be traded at deadline or walk). the blue line is truly horrific.

Yeah... And hopefully Lolnucks win 2oa since 1oa is impossible. It would definitely set out forward core up for years with Horvat, Petey, boeser, kakko/Hughes.

Nah. We will win 9 out of the last 10 games of the season for no reason and slide to 8th overall.

rekt the top team in the west, stanley cup inc

In typical canucks fashion we beat a top team in the middle of one of the worst stretches in history.

such a canuck way to win, and also you can't leave out the fact that LOLrefs counted that obvious high stick goal on preds 1st goal

Wish I could have watched this game.

Highlights made me smile though.

Feel bad for the Blues lol....

Supposed to be a contender after the offseason moves and they just got dusted by a team in a full rebuild.

their shallow blue line depth getting exposed hard. pietrangelo + gunnarson out and their D could actually be worse than ours.

i also feel bad for lolblues too, armstrong fucked up big time and should be fired imo.
Blues were like a point away from making the playoffs after trading away statsny, and then intentionally tanked for the "future"
all while signing shitty contracts through FA like 4mil for perron, maroon 3mil, bozak for 5mil etc.
oh and he also he traded away picks for RoR, and their 1st rd pick this year is looking to be a high pick, let alone next season. Doesn't matter if that pick is top 10 protected, as it won't matter if they still suck next year, it'll be another top 10 or arguably top 5 pick and they can't do shit about it. They dun fucked up.

now for some fun facts about petey:
- 26 of 30 of his points are primary (this is with a 12 game win-less slump, & playing with players that can't finish gifts etc. hell fuck it, imagine him on lolLEAFS, he would probably be 50pts by now jajaja)
- already has his 2nd 5pt game in his FIRST 26 nhl games, meanwhile the sedins combine for about 2600 NHL games and has 1 5pt game each.
- has more pts than heischer/patrick (1&2oa) combined from his draft year
- tied for most pts in 26 first games by a sweden-born player since 1989-90.
- ppl said calder is still up in the air with brady tkachuk, but lmk if it's any "close" http://www.nhl.com/ice/rookies.htm

look at his movement, he expected the puck was gonna come to him way ahead before it even did. He disguises it to make it look like a shot, and fooled the D and Goalie with a nice sick touch pass gift to goldie who finally didn't hit a post or missed the net after about 10+ of these type of gifts
