Has anyone heard anything about Boeser?
At the rink yesterday, someone mentioned BB's ND team isn't doing so well and that there are rumors he may quit college after this season and turn pro.

it's already been said the Canucks are going to sign him after this season and he's going to turn pro. There is still a small chance of him playing a couple games for the big club this season if ND doesn't make the playoffs and dimjim can get the deal signed.

It shouldn't be a surprise that Burrows fetched more than Iggy at the deadline. Quote:

Reading between the lines seemed to indicate that they're preparing for next season assuming Boeser is going to Vancouver/Utica. That said, it it probably standard protocol to always assuming your star player as a college coach always has a foot out the door.

I believe it was Gaudette?

Good trades by Benning. Dim Jim is not so dim after all.

Only 4 guys left on the current roster from the 2011 Cup Final roster we had, Sedins, Tanev, and Edler.
I'm happy with what we accomplished at the trade deadline and I happy to see the potential future of our team going forward. There's still a ton we need to do before we get good again but I can finally sense it's coming. Realistically for me another 3 years at least before we're decent enough again but it's ok because win or lose I'll be a Canucks fan for life.

I don't mind paying and watching even if we lose but the product still has to be good. Who says we can't be exciting but suck?

When I look at the Washington trade to acquire Shattenkirk, you can clearly see that the team GM is "all in" this season to try to get this team to win a Cup.
I don't know about these rental players. Yeah, Shattenkirk will help the team to be even more lethal on the powerplay as their PP QB. When it comes to the playoffs though, I still don't think that the Capitals will get out of the Eastern conference.
Pittsburgh is still my pick to go the Stanley Cup finals.

If you drive $6.30 in tolls, $10 in fuel and another $20-25 for parking. Even if you don't drink alcohol add another $40-60 for food and drinks.
It's expensive lol, even when I take my kid and wife to the football game with free tickets it ends up costing me at least $100.00.
