You joke, but this will probably be one of the top D PP pairings in the entire league next season. Markov is still an amazing setup man, he's just slow as fuck.It's not all bad guys, here's our top PP
Weber-Markov

Weber-Markov
completely off topic :
I never realized that framed movie posters were that god damn expansive, we're talking like $300+ for 24x36
I think it's likely the top pairing is Weber - Beaulieu and Markov can be on that second pairing to lower his minutes and QOC. Markov was the one staying behind most of the time this season anyways because Subban liking to carry the play so much, his positioning is fine, just when he gets caught he's toast.It will be interesting to see if Markov's lack of speed is exposed this year without Subban next to him.

Likewise. The worst part is the moves he made today are great, and if the Subban - Weber trade never happened we would have been in a really good spot.
There's a lot of talk he could play in the NHL next season, I'm really excited to see what he can do.Seriously, I'm not even mad at the Radulov signing...but after the Subban trade, and the given reasons, it just highlights one of the most baffling decisions I've ever seen a GM make. Honestly, I'm putting a LOT of stock into Sergachev being elite to make up for it all.
At least Cleary didn't get Re signed
So who ended up with Kris Russel?

As well as Markov since they're both Russian. If Radulov has actually matured, he could teach AGally a thing or two as well.Yeah like I said in a previous post, I know some people who follow the OHL closely, and if they and the scouting reports are to be believed, he should easily make the team next season and eventually climb to a top 2 spot. In that regard, Weber will make a great mentor for him.
Benning always gets his man
Or. He's an idiot that thought Russell was the player that would be more valuable in the postseason. Despite every indication otherwise.I can't believe Nill's plan was to wait until Hamhuis was an FA so the Canucks would not be able to get shit, it's genius.
Oh man you're turning even sooner than I expected.I like analytics a lot, and there's definitely a place for them in the NHL, but it's crazy how much emphasis people put on them. Berkshire is saying that Petry is better than Weber, come on. It's ridiculous.
Saying Weber > Petry is turning? It's a fucking terrible trade, but that doesn't make Weber a bottom pairing defenseman.Oh man you're turning even sooner than I expected.

Brought it on himself. Look at what happened to the Leafs for a while when they had a terrible management/coaching staff.
This is what seriously angers me, because I've heard quite a few hockey pundits say the same thing. If Therrien, your head coach, needs a handler to communicate with the players, then he SHOULDN'T be your head coach!
EDIT: Watching Kessel bring the cup to Toronto is now going to be my highlight of the offseason.
Zroid's name is Berkshire?I like analytics a lot, and there's definitely a place for them in the NHL, but it's crazy how much emphasis people put on them. Berkshire is saying that Petry is better than Weber, come on. It's ridiculous.
Guys I just saw highlights of Lucics introductory press conference and sizzling commentary is forthcoming. Please turn AC on.
He looks like he's carrying some flab at the pecs and he's got a bit of a belly going. Looks to be aproaching if not already at 20% body fat. Looks more like a guy who's ready to mail it in than win a cup!

Absolutely. Benning has been trial by fire. So when I see you construing Nill's idiocy as genius it seems so sadYou know, I would try and contest that but you're a Canucks fan so you're pretty much an expert in stupid GM decisions
Still haven't seen the movie in any form. Isn't there another cut out there that's gone further than the DC?Watching the extended cut of Batman vs Superman.
Somehow it's... worse? Just an unbelievably stupid movie. Stupid plot, stupid characters, stupid motivations, just incoherent at times. I'm not sure what the dumbest part is, but the low-key dumbest thing is probably the way the Wayne Financial dudes are all standing in the office as the giant alien ship is literally flattening downtown outside their window but it takes a call from Bruce himself to make them go hey we should call it a day early maybe.
Do you guys think we should make a new thread?
Do it.
