If Kuz figures things out and gets back to be a 30 to 40 goal player, it means Petey will be unleashed, and this team will be a Stanley cup contender. Pretty close maybe add a third line centre with size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Great game last night. Team starting to play fast with structure again. Didn't give the canes much. Is Petey back? If he plays like this while the rest of the team keeps doing what they are doing, this team is going to be scary down the stretch. I really hope Petey had an injury because him disappearing like this makes me worried it could happen again Lastly, all this trade Kuz talks. Let me ask this though. Is Lafferty a flash in the pan or can he sustain his play on that line? Love the speed size and forecheck along with defensive play but again, we need him to play like this reliably for the remainder of the season and playoffs. I love Kuz but right now Lafferty is bringing more to the table. A lot of us were stoked at the value PDG was bringing in the beginning of the season but he's gone back to what he is. A bottom 6 grinder who can play up in a pinch but could just as easily get waived. It would be terrible to trade Kuz and then find out Lafferty isn't the guy to replace him. I would rather work with Kuz until deadline and see if he can pick up his play before dealing him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BPA Posted December 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2023 49 minutes ago, Rekker said: Exactly. I can admit when I am wrong and I wanted Bo over JT. I was dead wrong. I am fully behind JT and the intangibles he brings. Just so impressed with him. I think it’s fair to say that some of us thought JT would get $9-10M. When he signed for $8M, it was an unbelievable discount (found money). I was on board with JT at that amount. As for Bo, I wanted to keep him but thought he was in the range of $7M. But he ended up getting $8.5M. Whew, so bullet dodged there. It’s a cap world and every bit matters. I’m sure if Myers was only making $2-3M instead of $6M, fans wouldn’t be so harsh on him. 3 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best start in franchise history, players having career seasons, as it sits we would almost sweep the NHL awards, players breaking 50 years of Canucks hockey records, highest scoring team in the league, +/- in the league, consistently flirting with a potential presidents trophy, etc, etc, etc. I've been a nucks fan long before the original Quinn days, and I do not recall a more successful team in most all categories. This is his fuckin 63 game as a coach!! My brain is frazzled trying to comprehend this complete and udder bullshit with our coach, just done. Sadly, there is a couple of people on here that are toxic, negative and full of hate instead of having logic, common sense and even that thing called positivity. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I gotta say, I was wrong in wondering about the Lafferty trade. I didn’t care about the pick as anything past a 3rd doesn’t matter much. I just figured we had enough bottom six wingers and figured Lafferty as a Tyler Motte style and level of player. Lafferty is looking more like a Hansen style guy right now who can play up and down the lineup as a speedy puck hound. Maybe not as tough as Hansen, but probably a bit more skill. Hopefully he can keep the same trajectory and can be that guy who can play with high skill players with the job of retrieving pucks for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) Record wise , we are back to the high water mark of the season. 9 games above 500 2 wins is all it took. Remember all the doom cucks the last few games worried about the Oilers and Flames in our rear view mirror ?
