Dowd and Granlund are still our two worst forwards

Dowd and Granlund are still our two worst forwards

I actually haven't minded Dowd for a 4th liner.

 

[Hit the post]

Rick Nash refuses to play in Canada. Lost all respect for him when I heard that.

Will be a great addition for the new NHL franchise in Quebec City.

I actually haven't minded Dowd for a 4th liner.

Yeah as 4th liners go, he's been pretty much as advertised. He's ok.

 

[Addison Rae]

I mean yes and no.

There are a few players on this team you get benched after a bad game and a whole lot of others who are never at risk of seeing the press box no matter how bad they play.

True, he was bad last night though I personally wouldn't have scratched him as I do believe he has long term upside and can fixed.

But it isn't even close to one of Johny's worst takes.

Good to know. I cheered for him on boring CBJ teams. Lost respect for him once he went to NYR

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Yes, and they're being paid accordingly. Dowd could likely clear waivers, but someone has to do those chores.

Agreed. Dowd has actually been pretty decent after his dreadful first few games. Since he's settled in he's done well

 

[Melvin]

Rick Nash refuses to play in Canada. Lost all respect for him when I heard that.

Why

 

[Addison Rae]

I'd try and bid on Mikael Backlund, if his price tag gets out of hand I wouldn't want any of those guys.

 

[Melvin]

Yes, and they're being paid accordingly. Dowd could likely clear waivers, but someone has to do those chores.

Granlund is overpaid at this point, if not by much.

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

Can you blame him?

Hows he ever going to build that extra level on his house paying more taxes?

 

[Chubros]

What a farce on the part of Ron Maclean and Sportsnet with that Greg Adams bit.

They elect to show zero clips of him in a Canucks uniform, instead showing him wearing Nordiques and Detroit colours. The stat they decide to show is: 216 PIMs to lead the Whalers.

Basically they ignored the fact that his best years were as a Canuck. No line of questioning about him playing for the hometown team in what is supposed to be their Hometown Hockey feature. And all this on a Canucks telecast featuring the Cowichan Valley.

Why not show the double overtime goal against the Leafs? Maybe talk a little about his time as a Canuck?

Screw Sportsnet and screw Ron Maclean.

 

[Breakers]

Patrik Laine's beard makes me Nauseous

I was pretty stunned that the opening montages didn't include the biggest goal of his career. Didn't watch the rest of it.

His best years were as a Canuck? There are two Greg Adams - and this was the one that was only in Vancouver for a cup of coffee. The one you are thinking of is the other, I believe.

Different Greg Adams. I'd have recognized the schnozz.

 

[Peen]

What are Dowd's fancy stats Like?

Wrong Greg Adams my friend.

That was Greg C Adams aka the lesser Greg Adams.

You're thinking of Greg 'Gus' Adams

 

[member 290103]

There's Greg 'Gus' Adams and Greg "C" Adams. The one they are talking about is C. The one you are all thinking of is Gus.

That makes more sense.

No memory of this other Greg Adams.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

When will BB score his next goal. I think he’s now 1 goal in the last 8 including this game. Getting to be more than a cold streak now.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

Gus Adams was from Nelson I think, not the island.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

You’re an angry person. Lol.

Was JV your favorite Hitman or something? It's not his fault the Flames did not pick him. Why have you chosen him as your troll fodder?
