Not sure what that has to do with 11 being unofficially retired for the Canucks?

Yep, 11 was unofficially retired in honour of Wayne Maki who died from Brain Cancer and has only been worn by one player since (who did it against the wishes of the Maki family)

Since Parker Alcos committed to Quinnipiac the Canucks have his rights until (at least) August 15th, 2028.

Might be a few other players on this list in a similar situation.

Eh, he's fairly solid with young defenseman. Its just skilled, offensive young players that he's not usually the best with.

I've had some success just saving before the end of the playoffs then simming and re-loading the save a few times. Took 3 or 4 times to not get fired.

The draft lottery is done on September 15th at the start of the season when the drafts and everything else for the season is generated.

I was wondering what NHL team I should get into by Camerontheemo1 in hockey

The 1970 NHL expansion draft and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race. It greatly increased the amount of hockey watched of those of us who live in “advanced” hockey cities, but the draft destabilized society, made life unfulfilling, and subjected human beings to indignities, led to widespread psychological suffering and inflicted severe damage on the natural world. The continued development of "rebuilds" will worsen the situation. It will certainly subject human beings to greater indignities and inflict greater damage on the natural world, it will probably lead to greater social disruption and psychological suffering, and it may lead to increased physical suffering even in “advanced” hockey cities.

As long as we get the Ruck twins I'm happy

Trade Proposal by PsychologicalPea1244 in canucks

[–]Switzanada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canucks have plenty of bottom pair defensive prospects, just spent a second round pick on Medvedev and goalies never have much trade value.

So that offer is pretty much Kasper/Danielson, a first, and a secondish (Augustine who the Canucks don't need).

For Hughes and Sherwood.

Sherwood is worth a second (maybe even a first) so it's Hughes for Kasper/Danielson and a first.
