ParticipantThere is no one here to raise shit with. It’s a ghost town here.
The lull before the storm wait til the season starts & see what gives lol. Already the same old stuff from HB is creeping into here. Some cannot let it go.
Will it be:
1) same crap different pile?
2) revisionist history lessons?
3) high school gangbangers?
4) insert your own-

ParticipantI am the person that use to use that name but that was years ago he doesn’t exist anymore. Haven’t worked in the tel industry since covid.
I liked VANTEL better. He was feisty.
Vantel was a very bitter individual, he changed his persona to Playoff Jim to take the heat off. Sooner or later he’ll have a bad day and come in here and raise shit.

ParticipantI’m more than looking forward to MM’s systems & pace of play. Line combos are my thing & curious how he constructs them. I break down F’s into play drivers playmakers triggers & puck hounds. On play drivers we lack them big shows up on zone entries. Rossi & Chytil when he doesn’t sneeze & get injured. Playmakers very weak there. Boeser & DeBrusk & EP40 triggers. 3rd wheel puck hounds DOC & Ohgren & Sasson. Not the greatest & to far up in the line up usually. Overall lacking elite top 6 F’s that produce mainly due zone entries & lack of elite playmakers. Offence suffers huge. Size & speed has to improve for dump & chase to get better puck pressure. Boeser & DeBrusk are dead weight in that category. The others nothing special. Lastly the PK is a black hole nothing new there.
Summary: expect more team identity to arise but scoring still a problem. On D lots of 1st pass pressure & break outs needs to improve for any signs of future progress. In goal is what it is.

ParticipantIf Aquilini has to go back to square one, why not reduce costs? This isn’t a playoff team?

ParticipantNot a lot going on these days as far as the Canucks go. I read yesterday the Aquilini’s want to reduce payroll by as much as 20 million this season, times are either tough with Aquilini Holdings or the Canadian peso is really hurting some of the Canadian owners.
