Baseless speculation and fear mongering at best 

Fear mongering? He's merely speculating (which is usually baseless) that Lindholm might be done. Nothing really fearful being projected there.

Oh I understand that. But my point was more that it's not JUST an advantage for one (our) team...it does involve risk. The team had to prevent them from scoring in a wide open net so they weren't just gifted anything.

I was being facetious. Of course you understand the manoeuvre just as we all understand the risk.

I'd like to keep both Hronic and Zadorov next year. There will be plenty of bidders for Big Z though. That grit is hard to find.  

 

 

There's a way to do it. They both need to come into fair territory off the higher end. Hronek's the more important player. We have our contending caliber top two.

Yes one of the camp with RU Serious that twists everything to this being a bad trade, there is no accurate information or hinting that he is done for the season.

Show me where I have said Lindholm was a bad trade? Please. There is no evidence whatsoever that I have said that LMAO. 

 

Here you go, twisting my words if anything.

Still listed as day to day, seeing a specialist could just be a consult for recovery nothing pointing to him being out for the season yet. 

It could, or it could mean he's done. I'm guessing that he is done. My speculation is baseless, it's just that - speculation LOL

I was impressed with how the Canucks were playing up until the back to back errant goals.

LA's bread and butter is playing a 'shut down' game and holding onto a lead.  The Canucks

had little chance to get in close to score a goal. It soon became apparent they couldn't

shed the Kings tight defensive structure.

 

One has to remember, that the Kings have only missed the playoffs 5 times, since their 2 SC

championships in 2012 +2014.  This team is born from a winning environment that has been past

on from previous players.  They still have Kopitar as their best C and Doughty as the best D and their

younger core group is starting to perform well.

 

They haven't managed to get past the 1st round so far, but I'll bet they believe this is the year they

will reach the 2nd round and (with luck) they make it to the Conference Final. Probably unlikely.

 

The Kings are a team with SC championships in their hearts and far more playoff experience in their

veins than the Canucks can even dream about. 

 

It takes a long time to build a contender and even longer for that contender to win it all (if ever).

 

Be patient, Canuck fans.  Our time is just starting to come into focus.

Well seeing as how they said he's "day to day" I thinks it's a stretch to go there.

That and there's no getting away from playing good teams in the playoffs. If we're scared shitless of LA we might as well pull out the golf clubs now 

 

Exactly this. Been saying it this week myself. There's no easy path. Have confidence in the year we just put up being atop the league. It happened because we're a top team AND we've beaten top teams. It's time for no fear.
