Why the Canuck's signing Rousell will NOT make them a tougher team. And put a target on the backs of Petterrson and Hughes

People need to know something about Dominic Rousell.... ..He ISN'T a feared tough guy, nobody is afraid to fight him. What they fear is his propensity for dirty and potentially injurious play. Rousell is waaay more of an Alex Burrows type,  sneaky, dirty and has no qualms about hurting you. so if you had visions of Gino Odjick rampaging down the ice, fighting the entire St. Loius Blues team, and WINNING then think again, it ain't happening. When Rousell does his thing OTHER GUYS are going to have to protect players, he's the type that will take a calm game and get people acting crazy, THAT is when people are going to start taking runs at Petterrson and Hughes, THAT is when Horvat will be forced to fight as people take shots at Boesser, and Horvat WILL fight if necessary, it earned him some respect in his rookie year, and if you notice, he isn't someone who gets picked on. Crosby did the same thing coming into the league, he let people know that if appropriate he...

Gudbranson for Kane? NHL Trade rumor, and why I won't spend a penny on the Canucks if Kane comes to Vancouver.

         So, an Erik Gudbranson trade is imminent, and rumor has it, Evander Kane could be involved, Ah....Jimbo, you've saved your biggest mistake for last, the final showstopper in the circus of stupidity that has been your regime. You're going to bring Evander Kane to the Vancouver Canucks?  You better not be, I've said it before and I mean it: I don't care if they win the frigging cup, I will not sink a single dollar into that team so long as Kane is on it. He's shown himself to be a very bad human being, this isn't the NFL, where fans don't care who is wearing the jersey, I care very much who I enable with my dollars and Kane gets NOTHING from me Too late to do anything about my tickets this year, but next year? No renewal Sadly, I could almost see this happening. Fans don't realize it, but even with all the talent he has Kane is very much not wanted throughout the league, you couldn't get much of anything for him in a trade Gudbra...

Dear Tonya Harding: The Vancouver Canucks need your help!

Dear Tonya I hope all has been well for you since you have treated so rudely the 1994 Olympics. That wasn't such a great year for us either, and I don't see much difference between you having Nancy Kerrigan knee-capped and Mark Messier skating across the ice at the final whistle in game 6 of the Cup final to sneak attack and breakTrevor Linden's ribs. That Messier guy has a leadership award named after him now, seriously! But you STILL get no respect, well us Pacific North Westerners need to stick together so today I write to you on behalf of the city of Vancouver and implore you to come home! Come home and save us from our selves! No, it isn't the real estate thing we're worried about, although should you feel the desire to break the knees of any multi-generational residents (If you can call living in a fridge box under the Georgia st. viaduct being a resident, HAHAHA! I knew you'd like that one) The transplanting and displacement of the cities population i...

VANCOUVER CANUCKS!! How's that "Re-build on the fly going?" Time for this team to "Own" it's problems

Remember last season? The one before maybe? I doubt it.  Psychiatrists say that extream boredom over a prolonged period can cause long term memory loss and actual brain damage if the mind isn't positively engaged at some point. In light of that, just concentrate on getting those mashed peas into your mouth, I'll assume the answer is "Nyaha..." No biggie, there really isn't much worth remembering, if you followed the Cancuks recently you have probably considered calling up the front office and demanding to be put on the payroll, because you can see no other logical reason to subject yourself to this drudgery. In fact, I'm willing to guess that if you remember much of anything it's not the stuff on the ice that caught your eye, more likely it was the noise from the stands that remains tattooed on your poor gray matter. "Tanking is for losers!" "Baertschi is going to break out for 30!" "Erickson is just what the twins need!...
