I would agree that he shouldn't be paid that much given his production and never having played a full season, but his qualifying offer is what he's paid now, so they have to give him at least that much if they want to keep him, which is what they're saying they want.

The Leaves throw the first punches against the defending champs.

Not NHL, but the Vancouver Giants are about to make WHL history. Fist time an 8th seed team eliminates a first place team. Well.......... still one period left. They were down and out, but are now about to win game six........... 4-1 with one period left. Game is on 650. Langley Events Centre.

https://theprovince.com/sports/hocke...c-upset-monday

5-4 win
7-3 loss
6-2 loss
11-6 win
3-0 win

Today winning 4-1 after two periods. 20 minutes to go. Hope they hang on for the win.

Lightning just spotting them a couple of games before they come back and win the series. More demoralizing that way.

Leafs can’t keep this energy up for a whole series… almost no shots allowed even despite 7 minutes of PP time for TBL in the first period alone?

LA vs Edmonton is a pretty great game, I hope the True Hockey Fans are watching it and not out on the golf course or looking at Tick Tock!

Mike Smith coughing up the puck, making an incredible save and bailing himself out, then getting scored on 10 seconds later is the most Mike Smith thing ever

If Edmonton gets bounce I think its time Edmonton pick more star players lol. Nurse will get 9 mill next season?At this rate Mc Jebus better pray his team will get one cup in his career.

9.2 mil for Nurse after this season. Did Oilers consult with DimJim on that deal?

I think it's an excellent deal for the Oilers. In fact, they should also give Evander Kane and Koskinen monstrous extensions. And in 2 years when Duncan Keith is 40, they should extend him too.

The Official 2021/2022 Canucks & NHL Thread

-had to laugh at this Daily Shit post about the Flames:

https://www.instagram.com/tv/CdGZuoO...d=NjY2NjE5MzQ=


Variable traffic signs have been spotted by drivers on Deerfoot Trail and Macleod Trail, with a Calgary Flames theme this morning — just in time for the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

With the Flames set to open Game 1 against the Dallas Stars tonight at the Saddledome, City of Calgary signs encouraged drivers to shoulder check in a rather unique way.

“If you shoulder check… so will Lucic! Go Flames,” the sign reads.


On a serious side, I think that the Flames will beat Dallas in their series.

The Official 2021/2022 Canucks & NHL Thread



Rutherford:

-happy with the job that Boudreau has done.
He wants BB back coaching the team.

Reporter asked about contract extension instead of just one year for BB. -suggestion about not putting Boudreau in a situation as a lame duck.

JR said that the organization is strong to support Bruce. JR said that if players stop listening to Boudreau, those players will be gone from the Canucks before BB.

-team must play with more structure instead of depending on our goalies to bail the team out.

In particular, JR said that the team’s defensive zone exits are one of the worst in the league.

He gave an example of when one of our D-man face puck pressure, we need a structure in place to give d men better options too S the pick out of the defensive zone instead of the d-man shooting the puck off the boards or glass.

JR said that if the puck stays in our zone, then then the puck is likely to be in our net without the great play of our goalies.


-likes Martin’s play. He sees Martin controlling rebounds and tracking the puck well.


-Renovations for Rogers Arena in two areas:

Media area for the reporters.

Refresh the team locker room.


Good news! New practice rink for the team. JR mention that management is narrowing it down to 2-3 sites.


JR says that ever since the big boss Aquaman came to his house to talk about the Job as team president, his relationship with the big boss is terrific. They talk about the team every two weeks.

He said that when the team need something, there is no pushback from the big boss.

Allvin:

-signing players to improve the team and just not for the sake of cap management.

There is more work to get done to improve
The team’s culture.


Assistant GM Cami Granato and Chris Higgins will help bring more of the European prospects and NCAA players into development camp.

That was a dumb offseason where all the young, available defensemen all received ~9m contracts lol.

Off the top of my head... Chabot, werenski, hamilton, mcavoy, heiskanen, jones, nurse etc...

We are lucky we have hughes signed for 7.x

I liked Rutherford's answer about an extension...

He said he's not going to extend him, just having him back next year... and if things go well, then they will talk. Used an example of Mike Sullivan in Pittsburgh, won 2 cups in a row and the next season was the last of his contract... still went halfway through the year before they started talking to him.

He said otherwise you run the risk of paying multiple coaches every season.

Media needs to fuck off with the lame duck label. I never even heard that expression until Travis Green's last year. Everybody has a last year on their contract at some point.

^ how many coaches are the Canucks still paying? Tortorella? Desjardin? Green?

I think they are off the books if another team hires them ...
