Sounds like the front office threw everything they could at making the deal happen, but prudent in getting a trade as a back-stop you know incase they "RAN OUT OF TIME".

U know its a bad deal if the other team thinks its the steal of the Deadline. Not sure how i feel about it. Atleast we got something for him? Does that mean our playoff hopes have gotten even more dire? The more i think about it the more i wish we would of just kept him cause its not like a 4th rounder is something that knocks ur socks off where ud be a fool not to take it.

It's great you're holding hope we can still make the playoffs but I think that shipped sailed homie and if it didn't certainly Motte wouldn't have been the piece that made or broke it. A 4th rounder could give us some organizational depth even if just someone who plays for the farm team and never comes up. Still need those guys.

Not surprised there isn't any bigger deals.
Can't really trade Miller/Boeser/Garland unless it's a deal you can't pass up.
Basically the entire Boudreau win streak putting us back into the playoffs mix prevented that. Like the team played to a position to get in (until this recent homestand) and you go off trading big pieces? What does that tell the rest of the players on the team? That no matter how hard you work, there's not loyalty?
Motte got replaced by Brad Richardson so it's a wash.
But man...still can't believe what the Florida teams paid for guys vs today. Chiarot for 1st? Hagel for 2 1st? wtf Covid hitting the florida state that hard? haha

I'm upset about the Motte deal because Tampa Bay gave up a 4th and a really good player in Mathieu Joseph for Nick Paul.......... Motte is a way better player than Nick Paul.

Interesting facts about the new d-man Dermott: https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/fun-...Ar9ylg5O5XO88w
Dermott was a Canucks fan growing up in Ontario.
He is a childhood friend of McDavid. They played novice and peewee league hockey for the same team. Then they played on the same junior team, the Erie Otters.
His Mom was a figure skater. -gives credit to his Mom for helping him develop above average skating ability.
-scored his pro hockey goal against Demko in 2016.
His nickname is the “Skin Doctor”. 
Dermott sort of sounds like dermatologist.
Dermott’s pet dog is a Red Merle Mini Australian shepherd. Niylah.

Interesting if it's true that several Canucks players reached out to express relief that Hamonic got traded.
How did that guy go from Mr. Congeniality in NYI > Calgary and then it was said he was such a stick up for teammates legend when he was on Calgary... I remember I think it was Brian Burke (?) rubbing one out on air about what a great team guy Hamonic is when he got his face punched in against us a few years back, ended up on the IR.
We certainly never saw it with all the bubble and vaccination BS he put the team through. Embarrassment to the nickname Hammer... Hamhuis was 10x better.

I’m sure a big part of it was being the anti vax weirdo and not being there when the team needed him etc. I’m sure it drags on for everyone when it’s this big saga of whether he’s going to be there or not, good riddance imo

I'm still surprised we got a 3rd for Hamonic.
Without Covid I'm sure he would have been a great team mate, but it sticks out when you insist on dying on that antivax hill.

it's actually shocked what we got for him, especially no other team was interested in him. I guess Ottawa made the call and Allvin couldn't say no quick enough.

Ottawa: Hey we are interested in Schenn, we'll give you a 3rd for him
Van: We aren't going to trade Schenn, but we have Hammy from Calgary on the table.
Ottawa thinks: Hamilton for a 3rd? Awesome!
Ottawa: We'll take it
Hamonic to Ottawa, 3rd pick to Vancouver
Ottawa: WTF we got shafted, you lied!

Halak is the projected starter for tonight. Also some info out there saying he won't be hooked because Demko really needs a full day off  | |

Touchdown ... 7 goals?
Halak will demand to be traded after 8 goals tonight ... ala Patrick Roy.

Brock rocks...... now Canucks have to step it up, 'cause once an avalanche starts, there's no stopping it.
EDIT: Nice! 2-0 JT Miller!
Uh oh................ 4th penalty
