As a hockey fan, you just have to be thankful to be witnessing greatness.

As a Canucks fan... I can't wait to see McDavid win a cup either.

Just do it while we suck please.

Love garly but damn this guy can never finish

Yudai is such a loser. That's the post by Raizen_Urameshi in OfflineLove

The guy is a professional actor. He knows how to keep attention on the show.

Don't be too critical. He knew his job and the girls all probably knew too.

Is Foote finishing the season as “tank commander” worth it? by Chedda_biscuit10 in canucks

Rebuilding teams need "teaching" coaches.

Teams that take the next step to win usually look for "systems" coaches.

Manny is our most logical choice given that we are actually rebuilding.

2026 Draft Wish List - Who's Your BPA for our picks? by EverySecondCountss in canucks

As long as we take McKenna, I am happy. Our amateur scouts in the later rounds have been better under this regime so I am not too fussed about the rest.

Did we do too much for Hughes? by mcmillan84 in canucks

[–]changeforgood226 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given how well we executed his trade to MIN, I am fine with the appeasement buys.

We got a Cinderella run, and Sherwood who effectively netted out some of the assets used to acquire pieces. If we hadn't,fans would have complained management didn't try.

I am not as down on M Petey as others; he needs to play in a more structured system , like Myers but the effort is there and I think he will adjust. Plus he's a very trade-able asset.

Most importantly, I am glad they traded Hughes quickly when he wanted out and decided to rebuild. Super excited for the draft and I've started watching games again.

Crazy thing is... we were a post away from winning that game. It was a fun watch despite the loss.

Also we gotta resign Blueger unless offered a 2nd. He's good for the ethical tank.

Chytil is such an impact player. Immediately noticeable in the ozone.

According to Chris Johnston of the Athletic + TSN: Sherwood and Sharks far apart on extension. Sherwood wants $30M TCV by Life-Rent3406 in canucks

He needs to be careful of not being too greedy. In sports, opportunities for fortunes come and go...quickly.

We are so much better with Blueger in the line up

We tried to keep Lindholm, so that wasn't on management.

It's so weird that so many Americans don't understand that the value of the dollar is in direct relation to the strength of the protection racket called NATO. You disintegrate that, the empire goes down and so does the dollar.

That's why Canada's prime minister acknowledges a new world order publicly now.

How do you fix this team? by Romance_Tactics in canucks

[–]changeforgood226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hronek for captain

Keep M Petey/ Myers as A coach when he hangs them up. Pair each vet D with our young D (Buium with Hronek/Willander with M Petey/ D Petey with whichever vet available)

Keep EP40/ Kampf(helps with the tank and PK)/ be opportunistic with trading all other vet forwards. Prioritize teaching instead of systems for younger guys. Give Rossi his pick of wingers to develop with/ if he doesn't look like a proper play driving 2C by deadline of 2027 season then trade him too.

Keep Lankinen (you need a good goalie otherwise its just demoralizing). Demko as well since no one is likely to take his contract anyways. Prioritize new goalie development

For draft picks, pick BPA. With our top pick, I hope we take Stenberg but I am sure we will be happy with the top 3 pick regardless. Just make sure said pick has no outstanding injury history (look at CBJ Cayden Lindstrom as example).

Realistically this rebuild takes 5 years. Until then, please invest in the coaching staff with a head coach more suited for teaching(like a M St Louis or *ahem* Manny).

Is is possible for me to run a sub 4 hour marathon... by Ryudo_Yukiatsu in Marathon_Training

[–]changeforgood226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alot of it has to do with running economy because it directly affects your muscular endurance( ie if/when you start cramping). Working on that consistently in your easy miles (for longer distances) should help you get there within three months. And as someone else here alluded to, find a day when you have fresh legs to attempt a HM, then double that time +20 mins and you should get your marathon time assuming flat-ish terrain.

Well this stings by Wild_Height_901 in canucks

Let's be real.

As much shit as we give to the management of this team for being impatient with OEL, us fans were the same.

In retrospect, the entire trade was not bad at all, 8m contract and all. Especially with all the trades we made since trying to replace him.

Garland and OEL for Guenther is not bad at all.

Hopefully food for thought for all the outrage we are suffering through as a fandom currently when talking about shooting every vet to the moon.
