Tabris please come and spin this for us.

 

[Cake Boss]

Matthias too? Damn what a fleece by Gillis for giving away a mediocre goalie on a shit contract.

 

[Holiday]

Luongo taking his shutout penis talents to Sunrise.

 

[Zombie James]

In a span of 9 months -- the Canucks have traded away Luongo and Schneider. Now they have 2 goalies who have played a combined 68 NHL games.

THIS GUN B GUD

Worst GM in the league. Some of the worst trades I've ever seen.

Where is this from?

[Razorskin]

Hopefully the Canucks trade Kesler and Edler too now, they have 2 good young goalies and are ready for a rebuild.

 

[Socreges]

Digesting

Estimated recapture penalties for 2021-22 if Longo retires in 2021: #Canucks $7.7M and #Panthers zero.

Oh wow

Ohhh wow

But Socreges told me that Lu should suck it up, and there was nothing wrong with starting Lack!

Not sure what your point is, bud

 

[Mr.Green]

You would like that wouldn't you.

Seriously, I probably wouldn't.

 

[Red_Man]

Good trades: Ehrhoff, Higgins, Lapierre
Bad trades: Ballard, Booth, Hodgson
??? trades: Schneider

Getting just a 1st round pick for the best, young goaltender in the league is a bad trade.

 

[snack]

Getting just a 1st round pick for the best, young goaltender in the league is a bad trade.

Which best, young goaltender are you talking about in this case?

 

[Curufinwe]

Schneider. Before Bishop's play this season he was the best young guy you could get. Price and Quick weren't going anywhere.

Estimated recapture penalties for 2021-22 if Longo retires in 2021: #Canucks $7.7M and #Panthers zero.

Seems more likely that he would retire in the 2019 offseason when he's 40 or the 2020 offseason when he's 41. Why pay for chump change when you're in your 40's?

2019-20 - $1,618,000
2020-21 - $1,000,000
2020-22 - $1,000,000

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Eugh, I feel so bad for the good Canucks fans here this rebuilding with Gillis at the helm is gonna be nightmare material for years to come...

 

[lupin23rd]

I'm not sure if Booth was a "bad" trade given the two corpses we traded to get him. Unfortunate the way it has turned out but that should have been a fleecing had things worked out.

Tabristic

optimistic about Horvat's upside.

I put Booth in the bad trade category because his contract was longer than Samuelsson and Sturm's. Sure neither player impressed but at least Florida doesn't have those guys anymore.

 

[Red_Man]

unless they pull a huge turnaround I think Gillis is gone at the end of this year. If Gillis is gone, Torts is gone

Which best, young goaltender are you talking about in this case?

Schneider? He was just entering his prime when traded, they could have gotten more for him if they handled the situation better.

I'm staying

He has the potential, he's going to have to hit his ceiling for that trade to pan out though.

 

[Acid08]

I know. Poor Tabris

 

[Rafa=FedKilla]

WOW.

 

[yankeehater]

You know that Homer was desperate to give them something good for him.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

I know. Poor Tabris

Wait, that means Tabris is gonna stop posting! Woo!

DENSITY 2015!

Would would rather have markstrom and horvat or schneider and kadri?

His unrealistic demands cost him quality assets.

 

[zroid]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL PANTHERS

 

[BigJonsson]

I wonder what the sedins think of this

 

[Quick]

Eugh, I feel so bad for the good Canucks fans here this rebuilding with Gillis at the helm is gonna be nightmare material for years to come...

One of us them! One of us them! One of us them!

 

[Acid08]

It's pretty amazing how quickly the Canucks went from the SCF to......this.

 

[MutFox]

I know. Poor Tabris

Burn in a firey hell...


;P

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

WEEEELLLLLLLCCCCCOOOOOOOMMMMMMEEEEEEE HOOOOOOOOOMMMEEEEEE.





Markstrom has struggled mightily in the NHL. Lou is long term. Brittian is a stud coming from the NCAA and I wouldn't be surprised to take Demko in the 2nd







BOYESSSS YES





TALLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOONNNN

So uh.. how bout them Canucks.

I wonder what the sedins think of this

"I don't know about you bro, but I think I just had a bit of setback in my injury rehab. Let's see what next December brings."

 

[Coldnoodle]

I wonder what the sedins think of this

We got paid.

 

[snack]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

*bangs head against desk repeatedly*

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

BUT WE GOT MORE SALARY CAP TO DO MORE SHIT NOW BRU

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Holy fuck Loluongo is done!!!

Why the fuck didn't they do this last year and keep Schiender?!?!

 

[Coldnoodle]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

*bangs head against desk repeatedly*

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Red_Man]

This is a result of the benching, Lu's agent contacted the Canucks on Sunday. Torts should never coach in this league again.

 

[Holiday]

BOYESSSS YES

I never thought I would see someone say this in earnest.

 

[Fei]

Jesus Christ. How do you move both Schneider and Lu?

 

[RC]

It's pretty amazing how quickly the Canucks went from the SCF to......this.

I expected the worst, and that's what we got? The lesson here? I've wasted my life cheering for a shitty team.

 

[snack]

This is a result of the benching, Lu's agent contacted the Canucks on Sunday. Torts should never coach in this league again.

The Sunday game benching was probably the last straw that broke the camel's back.

But now we got another Swede. Fuck, let's just name ourselves the Vancouver Swedenucks.

 

[Zombie James]

 

[Smiley90]

I... Uh...

I'm in lab.

Oh. My. Fucking. God.

It's actually happening.

We're rebuilding.

Marksrrom and Matthias is it, no picks?

Eeeeek. Someone tell me something about Matthias.

Jesus fucking Christ though.


I... Someone hold me.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

I never thought I would see someone say this in earnest.

He's been great 17 goals, good on the forecheck, can steal shootouts. 2 @ 2.65 is perfect.

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Let this be a lesson to never create 12 year contracts. Jesus tapdancing Christ, Vancouver.

 

[RC]

I'll be 50 by the time this team is relevant again.

 

[Var]

I'll be 50 by the time this team is relevant again.

It might take longer than that...

 

[snack]

I'll be 50 by the time this team is relevant again.

Hopefully that's in two years! Because I ain't waiting another lifetime to see my team in the Stanley Cup finals again!

 

[Red_Man]

This is what twitter was created for. It's glorious.

Canucks go from the best goalie tandem in the league to this :

#Canucks goaltending tandem now has 20 NHL wins & 68 appearances with Markstrom (11, 43) & Lack (9, 25).

 

[Jayhawk]

Funny how the Canucks couldn't move Luongo last year, but now they can.

 

[Crazymoogle]

Hello rebuild. Well now we've got 3 high end goalie prospects. I hope one of them is decent.

Time to change my avatar though. Gillis is an embarrassment.

 

[RC]

I... Uh...

I let loose a very audible sigh in class when I got the trade update.
