I guess its that time a year for the Canucks to go on a winning streak..

Devastator 03-25-2017 12:03 PM

Honestly I'm happier watching these kids play well and learn how to win then tank for a draft pick. Imagine all your life your coach and parents tell you go out there and give it your all to win.

Then you finally get to the pro's and your coach/management team says ok here's the plan. We are gonna lose as many games as we can for the rest of the season.

murd0c 03-25-2017 12:14 PM

now with Brock playing I want him to do well and if he does and the Canucks do as well I'm ok with that.

Boeser with the GWG. All part of the plan :troll:

bossha 03-25-2017 12:44 PM

Dont care if climb the rankings of nothingness as long as the kids are playing.

really? or just hearsay? haven't followed much this season.. hahaha

68style 03-25-2017 04:41 PM

^ I'd say it's a done deal considering they have made it public that management is directing how he coaches the team the rest of the season and acknowledged that he doesn't agree with them.

BROCKKKKKKK

This is great muahahhahahahaha

dbaz 03-25-2017 06:19 PM

boucher 2 goals, boeser 1, and then the leafs lose to buf, Anderson gets injured.
This leaves them 4 pts up on 10th with no starting goalie.
day just keeps getting better

Definitely worth a watch. Brock's dad has Parkinson's disease and his mom works 2 jobs to support them.

What did his dad in the end? Brock, I was going to switch you to baseball?

Winning with the kids is is a good thing. Last thing we want is whatever that poison they have in the avs organization. How the kids are looking forward to their vegas trip.

tonyzoomzoom 03-25-2017 09:28 PM

good article on Brock B just before he was drafted. Sorry if it's a repost

Life has tested Burnsville's Boeser, a likely NHL first-round pick - StarTribune.com

Are you kidding me? Tell that to Chicago when they were able to draft Kane and Toews, tell that to Pittsburgh when they were able to draft Malkin and Crosby. This isnt the boy scouts where we have to be ethical and shit. Sometimes u gotta do bad things in a bad situation. Theses kids arent stupid, they know the NHL is a business, 10 games of losing isnt going hurt their development. Did we already forget who drafted Matthews and Laine?

I don't think any players in the upcoming draft have the potential to be anything like the players you mention in your post.

Valid only if the draft had HIGH caliber players like the listed. Look at all the years of tanking Edmonton did, until #97 came by they were still getting nothing done.

From everything I have read or heard, this upcoming draft does not have the talent like last years players, or any of those franchise superstars listed.

The draft to absolutely tank is next seasons. The top 2 guys (Svechnikov & Dahlin) are projected to be like Ovechkin and Karlsson. The scouts are saying that Dahlin is doing even better than Lidstrom and Karlsson were at their age.

Tim Budong 03-26-2017 04:26 AM

im just optimistic that theres enough good people in the room to swerve the team in the right direction in 2017/2018
