Popular Post Attila Umbrus Posted December 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2023 (edited) Mark Messier, 0 games played like a leader… While not boring or generic by the normal standard. Played like nothing while here…and there is real scientific evidence he didn’t actually play here, and that year never actually existed in the first place. As he sucked so hard he created a vacuum through time. The continuous mass sucking created a temporary black hole in space, thus eliminating the entire history of his existence here into oblivion. Luckily no other lives were lost in the event. My argument is as such. If boring and generic means the person was so forgetful they barely existed as a Canuck…well, Mark Messier never actually existed a Canuck, it’s science. How boring and generic is that.

He was so bad that Nonis had to buy him out in his 2nd year on a 1 million dollar deal. Marc Chouinard I think this has to be the winner Like how do you get bought out of a 1 mill contract! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy was arguably the best player on the team during his years in Vancouver and wouldn't be terribly out of place in the ROH. It was basically a dead heat for the team scoring title every year with Skriko, Smyl, Pederson, Sundstrom and Tanti. The guy was awesome. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played 16 games in 2011 according to DB and I did not recognize him or his name at all. That was his second stint with the Canucks. He played 153 games with them 199-2001. He was ok, scored 16 g 30+ points each season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernier was a pretty funny French guy with infamous hands of stone. Best examples are cheap, low-profile players who were neither good nor bad, and didn't play for long. Jack Skille. Philip Larsen.
