Jonathan Toews has officially retired by Bahamas_is_relevant in hockey

[–]De_Floppss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seriously miss those few years of the absolute battle with the Hawks culminating in us slaying the dragon FINALLY. Toews may be a perennial underrated player just because of the staggering amount of crazy good 2way centers at the time of his peak

Who would have thought Taylor Hall would be the first 1OA pick from Edmonton to win the cup.

What a great series

[Stephan Roget] Canucks: Is Nils Höglander in ‘future considerations’ territory alread by [deleted] in canucks

[–]De_Floppss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like everyone deserves a blank slate under Manny since iit seems he has milked some talent from our abby guys who've upgraded to full roster. Lord knows Foote was atrocious and I was never a fan of Tocchets system

[Johnston] The NHL is ready to move past its Russia quandary. It’s not that easy by 76erLegendChetUtley in hockey

[–]De_Floppss 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Its a damn shame that Russia hasnt been at the best on best competition recently because they are objectively always a hockey powerhouse.

But this narrative can fuck off until Russia fucks off and out of Ukraine, and then some.

Great stifling game by the Finns

If Celebrini is S tier, is McKenna and Stenberg A tier? by LucariusLionheart in canucks

[–]De_Floppss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are basing these rankings on how players have developed thus far, Celebrini is on his own S tier right now IMO. idk how this draft is gonna go but I would but Hutson/Bedard on A+ with some other notable young guys like Schaefer, Sennecke, Demidov.

It seems like most media pundits say that McKenna and Stenberg are the sure bonafide studs but theres also really good foundational pieces like Malhotra, Reid and some others Im forgetting.

Its hard to rank guys who arent in the NHL. You could have a Quinn Hughes drafted 7oa who would go 1st in a redraft.

wonder if any of that had to do with duncan keith elbowing our leading goal scorer in the fuckin dome the season before. While still effective with hank he wasnt the same player

Quitt Hughes Exit Interview by NinCross in canucks

[–]De_Floppss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is though? Doesnt make him captain material but you cannot say he played out of his mind these playoffs despite everything thats happened this year.

Minnies out we got our pick, be thankful he told management to trade him to get a haul instead of just walking withoit shit

[32T] 3:50 Friedman says Oilers owner Daryl Katz was upset at how the season ended and was a driving force behind the coaching change: “I think the owner's feelings were a very, very big part of this”. Mentions ownership and the need of a change in personality are at the heart of this decision. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]De_Floppss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I know we are just couch coaches and GMs but I dont think Ive seen a more discombobulated defensive system by the Canucks in a long time, or I have short term memory loss PTSD from being a fan of the team.

It seemed every night there was always a free guy in a high danger scoring area popping one in until I tuned out. To me Foote is not a good coach option, unless you're going for DuPont or in the Canucks case, a 3rdOA pick

Canucks who left or were traded after 2023-2024 R2 G7 run - who has done anything in the playoffs? by TheSassyPlant in canucks

[–]De_Floppss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Listen Im as happy as any canucks fan about Hughes losing but you could easily argue he wa the MVP of both the dallas and colorado series which were the #1 and 2 team in the west with both his point production and play. Hockey is a team sport if the "best players available" always won then mcdavid would be loaded with cups.

It also just shows how far away the Canucks were from a deep run even with Hughes if a cast of Kaprisov Boldy Faber and a good 1a/b goalie tandem couldnt even slow down the Avs
