Canucks & NHL News, Rumours, and & Fantasy GM | You incurred Vector's wrath and broke the site.

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server
Can't start a new thread, but can move posts into a new thread...odd.
Starting here.

The first thing I did was try to make a new GDT and...well that was waste of time.
I think it's a shrewd deal to keep him next season. At worst, he's an elite player for Abby. At best, he's a bottom six option for the big club. I think he's shown he's got ability to do it, and I remain flummoxed that he hasn't been recalled again to be with the big club.
Guys I heard some big rumors. Apparently Benning is making a trade with Phoenix. OEL is told to be involved. Hopefully just a contract dump and they attach 2 first for us to take him.
Hopefully we keep Zadorov and dump Mikheyev. Pettersson needs to play better now that we’ve signed him to $11.6M. Man being 1st in the pacific is so awesome. Hopefully Demko is back before the end of the season in time for the playoffs. Man JT Miller has been so good this season, he’s going to retire a Canuck someday and might make the ring of honour.
Also Hughes for Owen Power? Seriously.

How lucky are we to have a goalie tandem like Demko and DeSmith in perfect health going into the playoffs 
For real. I couldn’t imagine both of them not being able to play in the playoffsHow lucky are we to have a goalie tandem like Demko and DeSmith in perfect health going into the playoffs
It wasn't pretty, but I feel that detox was best for everyone.
Now let us all dive back in with the vigor of a reformed junkie that has fallen off the wagon

I feel like JT after his time out
Good news, I heard they accidentally deleted everything that has happened this season so far
All my recent infractions are wiped
I'm picturing you saying this with professor Farnsworth's voice in my head.
Well that was an ordeal. Sorry you all had to go through the withdrawal of my sparkling discourse.
Well, that was fun.
Is it over yet?
Turns out my post about the Coach/Miller thing was right.
Now is the Tocchet going to Philly and Torts getting promoted, rumor but seems pretty sure.
The Canucks did get an offer for Boeser, a first rnd pick from Carolina albeit a late one but that is better than nothing IMO
Now I am just putting bits and pieces together here on Demko. An opinion.
Knee issue, back issue, groin issue, these are all symptoms of a bad hip(s) often stated.
AND his hips are never ever mentioned as a possibility even though it is common that after 10+ years post impingement surgery they can have problems, even his time off is similar to various procedures to help hips.
The pop muscle, actually McDavid has his detached and not surgically repaired.
These are also opinions.
EP40 sudden resurgence look like possibly pain killers and/or anti decongestants. The public know this happens in hockey, Kesler had a nice piece on this and there is limited testing in the NHL.
One game he looks listless and the next he is better than the previous 2 1/2 years. And filled with energy in a back to back in the third period, skating the best this season and last.
Canucks are a desperate team, some of the players are pressured to go to great lengths.
It could be just EP40 stepping up his game so he can be more tradable.
I find the Tocchet rumor makes sense for Philly and Tocchet and Torts. And because it came from out east more possibly accurate
