Jerks off Left handed confirmed

well, I meant, like... am I dying. but that's another way to look at it I guess.

 

[Fraser28]

Why do they play this Paid in Full ad on the Sportsnet App about a million times every game? So annoying.

 

[credulous]

He and Lindholm are gonna make a group chat to swap stories

debrusk for zadorov, which team says no?

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Kiefer>EP

Johnny Canucker on HF > EP

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

You think he has value with a 1 year qualifying offer that walks him straight to unrestricted free agency?

Because that was the alternative.

yes i do

he is a star in this league

sometimes canucks fans get too focus on the recent bad plays and forget that his reputation is still very high around the league

 

[Paulinbc]

think I need to pee. brb

 

[Jay26]

They had no choice but to get him signed, he has almost no value as an unsigned flight guarantee.

Right. I guess what I mean is I supported the signing even at that number.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Hughes wants this game bad

Yes they do.

 

[LordBacon]

I expect this kind of shit from Petey, because I know he’s capable of pulling this ridiculous shit off.

I really wonder if a sports psychologist can help him out like big Mac.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

yes i do

Who is going to offer us anything of value in that situation? Teams would just wait until he walks and give up 0 assets to sign him.

We might get a 2nd round pick and a B prospect.

 

[Fraser28]

I was always on team “trade Pettersson” and am choked now more than ever that we didn’t.

 

[SillyRabbit]

debrusk for zadorov, which team says no?

I mean we could've just kept Zadorov and spent DeBrusk's money on him if we wanted.

Which I'm surprised we didn't considering how badly we need another top 4 defenceman.

 

[Paulinbc]

same!! I got laughed outta here whenever I brought it up

 

[tyhee]

He'd be on a 1 year 7.5MM deal expiring as a UFA rn after he took that QO to walk himself to free agency if they didn't threaten that carolina trade lmao

If they didn't come to a deal EP's cooling off in the spring would probably have decreased the arbitration award, but he'd have gotten more than $7.5 mm.

 

[kanucks25]

sometimes i wonder if debrusk signed here thinking "wow i get to play with elias pettersson" and then now thinks "what am i doing here"

I don't think Debrusk has been as bad as most others here but he has no right to think like that lol he needs to figure his own shit out

 

[Flik]

OK bozo has returned

 

[Bgav]

like why

 

[moiderer]

Still early in the season but I think Allvin made a couple of mistakes with his free agent signings and non signings. Sherwood and Lankinen are fantastic, but I think he also painted himself in a corner a bit too looking for this top 4 defenseman unicorn. We also need a centerman, two key positions that literally EVERY team needs and is looking for aswell.

I would not have paid guys like Skjei, Zadorov, or Montour the money they got this offseason, especially with Willander in the wings. Same with Chandler Stephenson at C. Resigning Blueger at a discount is the best signing besides Sherwood and Lankinen. Having depth guys and prospects at value seems to be the plan as we weather the OEL deal.

VD has been a mixed bag but it was well acknowledged he would be a project. DeBrusk has been middling but hasn't hurt us yet, same with Heinen. You'd give Forbort more than a couple of games. Hard to make an evaluation with these guys when half the returning guys are underperforming even worse.

 

[Nuckles]

yeah that sums up the powerplay pretty well

 

[Peen]

jt's had back to back bozo games in these individual moments

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

Lol!!!!

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

LOL comedy

 

[PavelBure10]

I really think Alexandre Carrier was a huge miss as a free agent signing this season. Cheap, skates well, good puck mover, good defensively, and has a lot of untapped offensive potential.

 

[alternate]

Miller having an off night.

 

[Kryten]

Pathetic pp is pathetic
