    Yeah, damn ... I am not the world's biggest Canucks fan, but the Avs should not be having this easy of a time.

    if we are gonna catch anyone, its gonna be one of three teams to get into the playoffs.

    colorado
    nashville
    calgary

    i think we are going to boot calgary, they have a rough schedule....

    GO NUCKS. im not really as worried as i should be to be honest, i think we are sitting okay.

    BIEKSA IS SKATING AND WILL BE BACK...its not all the answers, but we need him....

    we are gonna make some noise during the trade deadline too...you watch....i think you will see us in round two this year!

    I miss my hockey!!!!! I miss CBC and TSN coverage as well.
    Go Canucks Go! We get one broadcast a week in the UK w/o a special NA sports feed and it's usually an Eastern Conference game. Although they had the Oilers a couple of weeks ago which was alright cause I used to live in Edmonton as well.

    Cheers!

    booo on Nonis or whatever his name is for not getting some offense for this team

    I hear it's not an excting free agent class, so he'll be needing to do a trade

    Good. While he had a great plan he had horrible execution of the plan.

    In fours years as GM he did very little to address our scouting and drafting woes. He never mandated that the farm club play a more upb tempo brand of hockey. The farm club is far too interested in winning and not nearly interested enough in churning out talented NHL'ers. He has never proved to have any kind of eye for NHL talent.

    In three years as GM he made one great trade (Luongo), one good free agency signing (Mitchell), and a couple other decent signings (Pyatt and Burrows). He has made many useless trades (Carney, Weinrich), many bad signings (Choiunard, Cowan, Naslund, Isbister, this list could go on). He signed Luongo to too short a contract. He got caught with his pants down when trying to resign Kesler and had to pay substantially more than he wanted to. He did nothing to address our lack of offence all year and going back to the trade deadline of 2007. He did nothing to help out the team when we had all those defencemen hurt, he easily could have traded a pick for a depth defenceman and then flipped the same d-man for a pick at the trade deadline or when our defence got healthy. He managed to downgrade at back up goalie and played our star into the ground this year.

    Nice guy, good plan, horrible execution. He deserved to get fired.
