Virtanen on the trade block? According to Iain MacIntyre. GMJB ultimate strategy - wait until a player completely bottoms out and then trade him. What the hell is he worth right now during a flat cap? 4th round pick?

They finally got one when he practically broke his stick across Juolevi's back WutFace

Nice to score on on the PP though FeelsGoodMan

Canucks are playing really well this game, as good as they have all season pretty much. Especially with the hits... Edler blasted a couple guys. Gaudette is flying around out there. Hoagie still being Hoagie... What a crazy turnaround!

Leafs are a good team though, going to be tough to beat

I'm kind of sad to see it go but in the same breath although I used to be a regular listener I found the current programming pretty terrible. I feel worse for the people that lost their jobs and source of income then I do for losing the radio station and its mediocre content.

[Hondaracer]

I recently switched back to 1040 from 650 about a month ago and was really enjoying the switch. Taylor and Moj were always pretty funny and Sekeres and Price provided maybe the best analysis albeit Sekeres seems like a pompous clown.

I cannot listen to Rintoule, I don’t know how he still has a permanent gig

[spoon.ek9]

Halford and Brough were by far the most entertaining imo. Hours and hours of lol content from anything related to Hockey, Simpsons, current events and more. Especially during this past year with the pandemic. These two guys helped return a sense of normalcy for me while at work in the hospital. Can't thank them enough for making me laugh on the daily.

[Teriyaki]

Sorta kinda off-topic. I'm not quite getting why the whole Bell cancelling the radio shows is being linked to the charity they support? I get the anger that they're cutting a show some people like, employees losing jobs, etc. But why the laser focus on the charity and not just the Business itself? Does one have to do with the other? Like, a business chooses to fire some people so they don't get to support the charity of their choosing?

So, people would rather they didn't donate money to the cause... Because people with mental illness don't get to have support? if.... people don't get their radio station?

[Hondaracer]

I think they are questioning the legitimacy of how much a gigantic corporation like Bell actually cares about mental health when they are willing to fire hundreds, maybe thousands of people by cutting into programming with a pre-recorded message and then sending in private security to escort people off premises with zero warning or communication

This is the apparently the full quote:

“We have a competitive group. Guys want to win. No one likes losing, including myself. It sucks. We have a lot of new pieces. We lost some pretty good players last year, and we're just trying to figure it all together. And I think that we're going to get there. Tonight, we were pretty close to that. We're right there. I'm worried we lost five in a row but I'm not worried because I'm confident in the group we have. In the long run, we're going to be alright.”..QH​

This is how I am with sports... So many fans want to blame coaches and GMs but not the players on the ice/field/whatever.

HOWEVER

If they feel the need to just blow the whole thing up and start over again, then they need to fire the GM

But just because he's made mistakes in the past, doesn't necessarily mean he'll continue to do so in the future. So he might be able to salvage this.

From a hockey fan standpoint, I can see that our team’s forecheck in the opponent’s zone is non existent.

Opposing teams have easy entry into the Canucks zone because of a lack of a strong forecheck from our forwards.

A great example of the lack of a strong forecheck was seen during our playoff series against Vegas.

The Vegas forwards had over forty shots on Demko in each of games five and six of that playoff round because those forwards have easy entry into the Canucks zone.

In addition to the lack of a strong forecheck, I think our defence men and forwards can improve on puck recovery in the defensive zone. There needs to be better work done along the boards to fight for loose pucks.

To answer your question SkinnyPupp, why not put the blame on BOTH the coaches and the players? Lack of execution and good coaching.

Jake fucks up a simple play with less than 30 seconds to play in the first. This obviously affected them during the intermission. The rest is now history. Again.

[AzNightmare]

Schmidt is having terrible luck... There was a lot of hype behind him after the trade but so far, I haven't seen anything special.

Is this another classic example of a player's performance tanking immediately when they put on a Canuck jersey? He's going to go to the post game conference again saying "that's never happened to me before so far in my career."

lol, his response last time when the puck went off him from a couple games back.

Anybody given any thought as to who you think the Canucks will lose in the upcoming expansion draft? Before the season began, my pick was Holtby but safe to say now Seattle won't be picking him. I really hope we don't lose Motte. But I can't see a scenario where the Canucks don't protect him. On capfriendly's quick protect list, they have the Canucks exposing Eriksson, Sutter, Pearson, Ferland, Beartshi, Beagle, Roussel, Edler, Benn, Hamonic and Holtby. Only guys I would miss on that list would be Pearson and Edler, but don't see Seattle taking a 35 year old dman.

[68style]

Capfriendly's quick protect list sure has a lot of flaws.............

Eriksson can't be selected, he has a modified no-trade clause... Pearson isn't signed next season, Ferland is on LTIR, I don't know who Bear is (the guy from Edmonton?!), Beagle, Sutter and Roussel all have modified no trade clauses, Edler, Benn and Hamonic are all UFA's after this season...

So out of that entire list, I think only Holtby is eligible to be exposed. I suspect you will see either Motte or Myers taken... maybe Lind if the Kraken are looking to get prospects.

Bear as in Sven Baertschi. I think you got modified no trade clause confused with a no movement clause. I'm pretty sure guys with NTC's can still be exposed

I’m not into spicy, so got one for my son. I guess people complained that it wasn’t fair that we no longer get free fries when the Raptors score x number of tres. Anyway, one good thing from Canucks lol.
Of course, Obsideon be like, “You call this shit spicy?”

[lilaznviper]

but raptors fries was free with a $1 purchase plus i get extra sticker for free fries later on lol

[keifun]

I noticed the offer today too at McD's
$2 for spicy szchuan McChicken
$1 large fries offer online
$1 iced coffee.

McDs lunch for under $5:woot2:

(maybe I should post this on the frugal thread too lol)

[MG1]

but raptors fries was free with a $1 purchase plus i get extra sticker for free fries later on lol

Yeah, they still have the free fries offer, but only in Ontario, I believe. Too bad the dollar coffee is only a medium. I heard the ice coffee was any size. Any truth in that? Plus, no sticker, lol.

Ok, this thread is no longer a Nucklenut thread. Nucklehead + Numbnut = Nucklenut. Hee hee, hue hue, pew pew.

Flames feed this time? FeelsBadMan

ON FIRE BABY! POGGERS

[spoon.ek9]

oh wow, Benn with a goal!

[SkinnyPupp]

oh wow, Benn with a goal!
Great play by Horvat, and good on him for finishing up!

[spoon.ek9]

Jake with a penalty but this time might not actually be entirely his fault... we'll see how this goes.

EDIT: NVM just saw the replay. WTF JAKE FUCK YOU.

[SkinnyPupp]

Based on the replay it looked to be entirely his fault LUL

[SkinnyPupp]

Canucks D doing a better job at getting back quickly to cancel that breaking pass they do. Even Meyers was fast!

[spoon.ek9]

i'll give Myers credit, he's getting back in time to breakup the plays through the neutral zone. BoHo has made quite a few creative plays this period. Juolevi with that big hit and looking more and more like he belongs (despite all that criticism before he even played a single game for us). Hoglander looking hungry as always. Lotto line has been pretty invisible so far.

Now, I honestly wonder if the Canucks spend any time creating a highlight reel showing Jake just how fucking awful he's been. Seriously, if he keeps playing like this he's going to lose his career in the NHL real quick.

[spoon.ek9]

BO KNOWS!

[SkinnyPupp]

Marky way too aggressive PogChamp

[pastarocket]

Markie gets caught!

-good to hear Shorthorse troll John Garrett about Markstrom’s aggressive play as similar to his goalie style back in the day. :lawl:

The goaltending coach Ian Clark has been a big help in improving Holtby’s game.

That was his best game of the season for sure

That amazing response after Calgary scored their goal was amazing

[punkwax]

Cant wait to listen to 1040 this morning because it’ll finally be positive and not all about the doom and gloom.. oh.. wait.. crap. :okay:

[murd0c]

I tried to listen to 650 and just couldn't at all, I find it so boring and horrible. It's amazing to me how much of a difference the two radio stations were.

[MG1]

I don't listen to those broadcasts......... only if it's somewhat interesting which, most of the times, they're not. Start up the car and it's on 650 from the night before, lol.

I've felt exactly the same. 650 is generic and boring. The only reason I'm listening to them at all is because there's literally no other alternative. It feels similar to watching the hockey but you're always forced to listen to the other team's commentators who aren't exactly terrible but they're boring as shit.

[punkwax]

I’m secretly hoping Don Taylor starts his own media company and everyone comes back on a different station. His legendary status would increase exponentially and I’d like to think he wouldn’t have too many issues finding the talent and financing to pull it off.

[Hondaracer]

I never really thought about it until the station folded but I guess you gotta pay people a pretty penny to be reoccurring guests on the station

At least if they were to start their own station they could probably get plenty of guests for free or close to free given the hosts like Don Taylor etc. Connections. However I guess it gets messy when you want to have people on who work for other networks

[68style]

Remember when Don Taylor got pinched for stealing socks from The Bay while high as shit and went to rehab for like the nth time for cocaine / drugs / alcohol?

Yah he’s not going to be running a media empire anytime soon.

[MG1]

Yes, very economical.

Can’t find anything on it and don’t recall it

[SkinnyPupp]

It's not 2002 anymore, they don't need to start a station or a media company. Just do a live podcast.

Lol no! I had no idea.. fuck he didn’t even have to start a radio station to add to his legendary status :lol

Edit: kidding of course, but now that I have a minute I can’t find anything on the Google machine about this either. Are you sure??

[MG1]

"A reminder to all you young sportscasters out there, when you get a chance to use the word brouhaha, you take it!"

[Bouncing Bettys]

I've been waiting for 650 to lay off or reassign talent in order to hire on as many 1040 guys as possible.

[Hondaracer]

Man I’ve tried to go back to 650 and just can’t. Like maybeee the afternoon show but as I’ve said, Rintoule is unbearable. Like I cannot listen to his voice anymore and his mannerisms etc are ..Uhg..

[MG1]

Game Day!!!!!

$2.00 Schezuan McChicken ftmfw!

That’s about as exciting as Canucks games get, gulolol.

Just had it, not spicy at all haha. I'm not even sure what's "szechuan" about it, tastes like chipotle mayo.

[SkinnyPupp]

I think szechuan with McDonald's is a meme

Rintoul...Walker... just can't....the canucks lunch with alex auld back then was pretty good.

Someone tried to approach jim pattison to see if they are willing to start another sports station but they said no to it.

I doubt it until sportsnet loses the games rights/

Instead of, "Canucks so good," a la Emperor, it's now going to be, "McChicken so good."

[SkinnyPupp]

Wow Moby sucks

I mean he always has, but he still does too

[MG1]

Actually, Ghost Pepper McChicken is coming out next. Not sure when, but it might be just a little spicy for Obsideon.


Ghost Peppers are supposed to be hot, but not. I remember Nat from the Nat and Drew Show telling everybody how she was cutting ghost peppers in the kitchen when she had to go washroom. She didn't wash her hand after cutting the peppers. She um........... had some heat down there. This is why god made sure Italian women were thick down there. Two birds in a bush....... nvm. Forgot the saying........


back to hockey!

[MG1]

Lost track of time......... just cranked up the PVR and saw/heard the singing of our national anthem. Not quite a lounge lizard sound (gay bar?), but the ending was real special. And the siren. gawd, I hope the Canucks do a little better in the game.........no inspiration from those two.

[SkinnyPupp]

Jets get the first goal, GG

[MG1]

Ewwwwwww...............

Demko got undressed after a really dumb giveaway.

McChicken so good.

[spoon.ek9]

I dunno about you guys but I don't like these jerseys. Looking pretty awful imo, matches their play so far.

[Hondaracer]

Thought they might look better than this on TV

[spoon.ek9]

last year's black skate jersey looked 1000% better than this. glad i bought one.

[SkinnyPupp]

Demko keeping them in it, not that it matters if they only manage 5 shots

They look outclassed this period, similar to when they play the Habs

[CRS]

Ewwwwwww...............

Demko got undressed after a really dumb giveaway.

McChicken so good.

On the app, get the junior chicken and customize it.

My go-to customization, because I'm a fatty, is to add an extra chicken patty then max out mayo and lettuce.

It's so good.

[Bouncing Bettys]

Two things SN did better, in my books, was that they stuck to hockey talk way more, and their ad breaks seemed shorter. Any time 1040 started into other subjects I have little to no interest in, like football, or when they cut to commercials, I would flip to SN and they would still be talking hockey.

[SkinnyPupp]

Jets got away with 3 or 4 obvious penalties this game so far

[Hondaracer]

Got to when you got dem rights

Man, Juoelvi been stepping into peeps. He could have a Hamhuis type upside. Can’t remember a Canuck who’s had this many solid body checks in a row. Maybe elder when people thought he was peaking in those 2012+ Kings series

[68style]

The replay of that first goal... Miller sees the puck hop Edler's stick... and then he just coast skates all the way back?

He was pointing the right direction, I feel like he could have buried his head and at least given Scheifele trouble, he's faster than Edler and didn't have to turn from a stop like Edler did... what's with him he's so lazy now

[SkinnyPupp]

Man this checking and passing looks so good, even coming from their own zone for once... Hard to believe it's not paying off

[spoon.ek9]

sigh... nothing going almost all game.

can't believe we're giving this kid another shutout (1st was against us too)

[SkinnyPupp]

A for effort?

[spoon.ek9]

maybe this will motivate them to win next game, sigh.

[spoon.ek9]

how the fuck? how do the jets not get an extra penalty out of that???

[68style]

Forbort’s such a fuckin baby

[MG1]

McChicken so good...............

[Hondaracer]

That might have been Peteys worst game I’ve watched.

Wonder if dat contact is weighing on him..either way it’s kinda good for the Canucks cap wise lol

[bobbinka]

look closely

If Bieksa ever runs for PM he gets my vote.

Can we trade Jake Virtanen for Miles Wood?

Wood will throw it down with anyone in the league to keep our young guys confidence up without being pushed around

MaCewen vs Forbort. GOt in a couple blows

Of course my stream dies during the commercial break and I don't notice until after the 2nd goal was scored WutFace

Either way, nice to see Petey score one, hope it breaks him out of this slump

Edit: Nice goal too! PogChamp

[spoon.ek9]

totally forgot the game was on

Petey’s between the legs backhand with his back facing the goalie was sick! What a goal.
