[GDT] Vancouver Canucks vs Calgary Flames, Where: Scotiabank Saddledome (aka 2 Points for 'Nucks Arena), When: 7PM PST Dec 2 - The Twin Giraffes & Welcome to Vancouver Z Game

[Hairy Kneel]

I've been preaching for size for seems like forever, now I'm just going to enjoy a balanced line up of size and toughness added to our skill guys.

I know I wanted Try but Zad is definitely right up there. PDG is not as beastly as I wanted so a good strong power forward would be our next good piece.

Big scary Russian? Check.

We could likely get him for the league minimum..... so why not? Can he defect due to current Russia situation? 

 

He has a wife and kids.  Spent a year and half outside Russia and it wasn't for him.  He'd probably rather suit up for the Russian Army than try leaving again, this time illegally.

I watch that and get blown away that anyone would be lukewarm about this acquisition...when is the last time we had a fearless bone crusher like that??? 

 

And he can shoot the friggen puck too, picking top corners, where Clutch hides his "Burrows, do we need him?" posts...

If you're being serious about this narrative...

 

We've had a total of ZERO successful defections to the NHL since the war started.  I don't even know if anyone other than Fedotov tried to dodge the draft.  But even if Tryamkin has to do service, I'm sure he has the money to pull strings and be a prison guard.  Or even avoid service altogether.

Losers going to lose. Likely a Benning, OEL, Gatland fan. 

You're really losing a LOT of credibility Alf. 

 

You keep hitting the same song, over and over. 

 

We get it. 

 

Try and use your alien intelligence and come up with something new... if that's possible.

"So I've played with Ian Cole in Colorado, played with Tyler Myers in Buffalo my first two years, Pius Suter one year in Chicago"...

 

Twin giraffe is a potential.  

 

Canucks was his favorite team growing up.  That's enough for me. Hope he performs well. 

Zadorov played with Ian Cole on the same pairing in Colorado for over a year. I see them together again. 

[Mando27]

I just want to see a full 60 minute effort.

[Rob Eh]

Calgary Flames, then the NJ Devils. Get back Satan.

It had me confused for a while but that's easy to do these days.
