Rip The Mesh Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Put together the Canuck's great play this year, then combine that with the Oiler's ineptitude this year, and presto! a party breaks out.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of results and skating, yes, but not the same style. Orr was a physical force whereas Quinn is all smarts. Makar is closer to Orr stylistically but not the same level of dominance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dr. Crossbar Posted November 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2023 Good thing we didn't rebuild, this place would be insufferably toxic af. Fans deserve winning hockey after being told to have patience upon patience upon patience. Thankfully we have a management and coaching staff that can put it together quickly. Allvin and co have done a remarkable job in a short amount of time. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuzzizzle Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 39 minutes ago, Spoosh said: I always try to see the best in everyone and every situation. Understand why and where the mood is coming from. But the Oilers today… Both McDavid and Draisaitl looked so entitled and diva all the way. That team is a mess. It has been for years but I don’t think they can come back from this. And the leadership group… McDavid, Draisaitl, Kane and Nurse. Way too much ego and entitlement for them to fix this and get the team behind them. And with the coach being even more of an issue - it will not end well. btw, brilliant game again guys, Go Canucks Go Have to completely agree here. It’s actually astonishing how much ego/entitlement they have. Obviously McDavid is a great player but I just cannot stand his personality or the way he acts on the ice. Crosby has had his moments too, but Connor will never get the respect I have for someone like Crosby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orr was a physical force whereas Quinn is all smarts. Makar is closer to Orr stylistically but not the same level of dominance. Orr dominated at both ends of the ice. Led the league in scoring for a whole season and was defensively a stud. His skating at the time was unseen before and really could get involved when things got rough. I remember he was in Vancouver one year and we had a power play. He had the puck for the whole two minutes i believe. There hasnt been a D man in his category since and I regard him as a better player than Gretzky. If his career hadnt been shut down early from the knee in jury the argument may have been moot.... thats Moot not Moo..lol 1 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a small body Lol Burke is such a dinosaur. To be honest, I didn't think Quinn would be this good. I thought he'd be a perrenial all star but not in a conversation with hockey's greats like Orr, Coffee etc. This is unreal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckleheads Fan Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 If it weren't for the season Hughes is having, we would all be glowing over Hronek's offensive prowess, two more assists last night. He's 21st among skaters and third among defensemen, that trade looks better everyday. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never forget grabbing the Vancouver Sun and finding my name listed for 4 tickets. $12.50 each. I have my stub and one pristine ticket as we only used 3 of the 4.

stawns Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Obviously, the Oikerx biggest issue is goaltending and I'm not sure there's a solution for them at this point. Is there a team out there with a starter they're willing to trade? I don't think so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
