Then he fires off one last rage against the dying of the light hail mary throw to save his job by trading away a final year of Beagle, Roussel, and Eriksson plus a 1st, 2nd, and 7th for OEL and Garland.

@@maxpowr90 I thought the Toffoli trade was fine. Madden never played for them and Schaller wasn't very good. So they basically only gave up a 2nd rounder and a 4th rounder (which they got to keep cause conditions weren't met). The worst part there was that they didn't re-sign him, since he was good when he was in Vancouver. So that was bad, but at least not a boat anchor on your cap for the next few years.

It is so hard to be a Canadian fan in the NHL. I'm surprised more Canadian fans don't hate their teams. I started watching hockey enthusiastically in 1967-68. I was fully in for 1969-70 as a ten year old and my team The Canadiens missed the playoffs. Next year they went on an epic playoff run and I was sold on the league, on the game and on the team. I had as easy a move into hockey fandom as anyone could have. My team from 71 on was competitive, always a threat to win the cup and they went on to win 6 cups in the 1970's , one in 1986 and probably the luckiest cup in the last 50 years with their win in 93. I have watched 8 victorious Stanley cup runs in my time as a fan . Toronto fans haven't won since 1967. Vancouver (and Buffalo) and Winnipeg in both iterations have never won. Calgary won once in 1989. Edmonton won 5 times in 1984,85,87 and 88 and 90. Ottawa has never won. It's brutal. No cup victories in 30 years from six teams. But Vancouver has been around since 1971/72 and they have mostly been horrible with a couple flashing moments. Any team that just over and over again attempts to shore things up enough to make the playoffs is going to be in trouble. Oh that trade was so stupid. At the time I'm thinking they were a year away from getting out from under Ericksson, Beagle and Roussel. They had finally waited it out. If they had done nothing they would have been better off. I think they were afraid to be seen doing nothing and just losing the players so they took a chance but it was a poorly calculated chance, especially when doing nothing is superior.

I watched the latest episode of the Locked on Canucks‘ podcast (titled “Define the perfect NHL glue guy + the Vancouver Canucks PTO situation”), part of the Locked on Sports‘ pod series, and couldn’t help notice, in my KZfaq feed, a video about the supposed hatred of the Canucks by the THG KZfaq man. Although I cheer for the Leafs year-round and respect the number of Stanley Cups, whether before the 1966-67 season or since, the Habs have won, I look forward to hopefully seeing a non-Habs‘ Canadian team (NHCT) hoist a Cup before the Habs next appear in such a round. There was early in my life a stretch of seven straight seasons to feature Canadian teams’ winning Stanley Cups, all but one of them by NHCTs. Following the 1989-90 season, not one NHCT has won a Cup, with such teams, combined, having made just five appearances in that round in more than 30 seasons that have followed, the most recent one by the Canucks to end the 2010-11 season. To try to wrap up this post, I thought I would mention the title of the latest episode of the Locked on Flames’ podcast, another one in the Locked on Sports‘ series of podcasts, the episode in question titled “Are the Calgary Flames better than they were [last season]?” even before I had watched a second of that episode, I hadn’t been convinced the Flames, whose off-season, in my late-August video titled “Response to @OhNyquist video #offseason|s of various @NHL teams (discussion: 🇨🇦’s teams),” I had given an F to, had had a good enough off-season to see playoff action in 2024. It was no surprise that Jess Belmosto, the host of that episode and the main host of the relevant podcast, claimed the Flames hadn’t had a good off-season either. It’ll be interesting to find out how many Canadian NHL teams will this season see playoff action, particularly with, beyond the Oilers and Leafs, none really a lock for a playoff spot.

This shows you a franchise with NO PLAN because the best they would ever do is be a perennial playoff bubble team with NO real chance at winning it all playoff or ping-pong wise... Look at Edmonton, Toronto, NJD, Colorado etc. & their numerous top 5 picks!!! That's how you do a true REBUILD!!!

I actually have more hope then I did last year. While having a deeper centre depth position last season with Horvat, they were still really bad on defence. This year they buy the bullet with OEL and redistributed the money to defence. Loved the Hronek deal. Coupled with the FA signings, the team is deeper on defence and should be able to improve on the pk. The team could score but couldn’t keep the puck out. Also Demko was out 3 months. Providing he stays healthy I’m liking the makeup of this years team better then lasts. That’s the reason I’m more excited this year opposed to last

I’m a die hard Canucks fan, but after all of this, I’m actually hoping they bomb this year and have Petey and Hughes demand trades and FORCE Aquillini to deal with a true rebuild. If they make the playoffs, it won’t be lasting many years and we’ll be back to this 10 year chase for the playoffs again. I just can’t believe this playoff chasing approach. It clearly doesn’t work.

WHY!? You think they will get better assets than Petterrsson and Hughes in a trade? Any 1st round draft picks they get back will be top 10 protected.

The Vancouver fan base reminds me of the Capitals fan base. I have been a fan since 1974. The fan in me hurts with every loss. But the Caps won't rebuild either, and the fans are convinced Ovechkin can part the Red Sea and we will win another Stanley Cup. I wish the rebuild would start before a Montreal style collapse happens, but I seriously doubt it.

Quinn Hughes is a trooper. I don’t see him requesting a trade to play with his brothers unless/until there’s truly no hope for the Canucks. As much as I want to see that, I don’t want even more misery thrust upon Vancouver.

If Pettersson leaves, Hughes will to, trust me on that

We’ll see after a Devils run or a team USA get together. Small chance he stays all 4 years in Vancouver

It's an eternal loop of sympathy and frustration looking at the Canucks and not being a fan of the team. Same with the Sabres really. The only team that raises more emotions in me is the Stars as that is my team, but those two come close. Always root for them when Stars are out of the running and always hope that they don't do something boneheaded that sets them back. Sabres are in a good place right now and there's hope, I wish that Canucks could be there too in a couple of years, less hopeful on that though.

For everyone who complains about when players sign extensions, but not max extensions for 7 or 8 years because that clearly means said player doesn’t want to be with the team long term, what are they gonna say when 7 and 8 year deals don’t exist anymore? Something tells me the next CBA will do away with those lengthy deals and reduce the maximum term of contracts to either 4 or 5 years, while maintaining the incumbent team’s ability over all other teams to offer an additional year, so it might not be very long before max term contracts in the NHL look something more like 4+1 or 5+1. Obviously, the salary scale/percentages would change alongside it, but that’s a different conversation.
