Yeah but what the fuck is this asshole Jan Bullis asking for a trade because he feels he is not getting enough ice time and doesn't get to play with the Sedins. What a selfish fucker!!
Nucks are on a major roll and all he thinks about is himself. Besides what has he done to earn that priviledge?

Every company I've worked with has assholes and im sure it's the same in hockey. Nonis knew he was signing a prick and was taking a risk.

Next time I'll make you a bet and tell you what the score will be before the game starts.imrokhaard said:I had the replay on Sportsnet at 8:00pm...it was 0-0 at the time while surfing this site. Then came across your thread.
Next time do some of us a favor and not put the scoreline in your title.
Thanks.
I'll say it again - most NHL games are unwatchable, which is why I barely pay attention any more. Also, these games mean absolutely nothing. Most teams make the playoffs and that's the only time any of this matters. Thirdly, for everyone back on the bandwagon - as stated above these games mean nothing anyway, but the Canucks are probably due for a major crash thru injury or whatever. Most likely after the break they will lose momentum and will not only be playing boring hockey, but losing too.
He won't be missed ... he's currently playing the 4th line where heKYG said:
belongs ... take Chouinard with him!

Spoken like a true typical west coast "fan". If the sun comes out you would probably say, whats the big deal? It's only going to cloud up and rain again.
You're right - I forgot to mention that. And it's going to get dark again no matter how bright the day. Damn.
No matter how miserable your outlook may be, at least you have a good sense of humour.Cock Throppled said:
He's actually starting to score a bit more lately. Potted a SH goal against the Sabres, but his ice time hasn't gone upKYG said:
If he wants out, then let him walk. There's plenty of talent at or lower than his pricetag. Just heard that the Leafs are waiving Alexander Suglobov
I'm also a realist. The current Canucks are winning despite themselves. They get outplayed many nights and are outshot almost every game. You can't kep being outshot 2-1 and expect to keep winning. They are one injury to Luongo or a series of injuries to the Sedins away from meltdown. They are on a good run right now, but the break stops that momentum.Canuck teams have always been streak teams. They can put together 8 losses in a row just as easy as the opposite.
I'm still not watching much any more. Okay, it was great to see them (or anybody) kill the Leafs, but c'mon - that game was stopped cold by all the phantom penalties.

I agree with CT, the "new" NHL is unwatchable, but I'll always keep tabs on the local team for sure. Amazing all those "Luongo is overrated" or "Luongo is overpaid" or "they gave up too much to get Luongo" experts have shut the fuck up. Well, at least for now. The guy is one of the top 3 keepers in the game, show some appreciation for having him here because if you've looked outside lately you won't find it too hard to believe that his puck bunny wife from Florida will want to be back there next winter.
so, you figure that Luongo will go back to Florida for Auld, Allen andThe Lizard King said:
Jokkinin (spell?) ... maybe if we're lucky they will take Naslund too ...
opens up $12 million per season for new hires ... more if Bulis and Chouinard
are gone.
And I'm still not sure what's wrong with Sabourin ... he played against
the best team in the league and only lost on a shoot-out ... Luongo
hasn't been that shit-hot on shoot-outs either, though his regular
play is fantastic.
Auld and Allen are struggling...BIG TIME...and the Canucks don't need any more Europeans. That would be a very bad deal for the Canucks. Besides, any time you have a goalie like that you don't want to give him up unless you really have to. Remember before the lockout the Canucks were a Luongo away from making some serious noise in the playoffs.
Sabourin's unproven at the NHL level and playing once every 10 games doesn't help. IF he can repeat what he did last night, I'm sure they'll give him more playing time to rest Luongo in the event they actually make the playoffs. The Canucks are not too bad in goal with Schneider and Ellis coming up, Flaherty tutoring them, and Noronen still a legitimate prospect playing in Europe. Luongo has actually been stellar in extra time.
What team isn't a player or 2 away from disaster?Cock Throppled said:
Look at the Ducks. Without Pronger they are 2-6-2 in their last 10
Except for when it counts....the same thing will happen this year to them that happens every year......nuthin'!!bartendr said:
Exactly. Everyone who thinks the Canucks are gonna sweep the rest of the season have to realize it's more likely they'll melt down.deke said:

Why is there still talk about Sabourin and why he's not a regular starter. We picked this guy off waivers first of all. The Penguins who originally had him couldn't even trade him for a draft pick. He's a career AHL player that can play the odd NHL game.
