CanucksCore, CanuckTruth, Kurtenbach’s buddy, Tiger’s best friend, Linden’s caddy, Bure… wtf.
And here’s why there’s no hope…

Some good Canadian talent in the ‘26 draft. Time to start paying attention.

So were JR & Allvin just yanking our chain about structure, structure, structure? No mention of it now. Where did the structure go? Canucks under Foote are anything but structured. Was it all just rhetoric?

The only way to explain where the Canucks are on this graphic is that either Canucks mgmt sucks, or the mandate given by the owner sucks. Could be both, but I think it’s the latter.

The Hurricanes have proved that maxing out on draft capital does not mean you have to tear things down to rebuild. I dislike the term actually. They are in constant retool. Part of retooling should be maximizing draft capital while remaining competitive.

So, next game, Canucks vs Tampa. In the last 10 years the Lightning have won 2 cups and made the playoffs nine times. And YET over that time the Lightning have had two more picks in the first 3 rds of the draft than Vancouver! A fan’s nightmare.

Check out the two teams playing tonight as to their ability to acquire draft capital with picks in the first three rounds over the last 10 years. The record of the Canucks here is remarkably shameful. *means Cup champion.

Canucks are in the zone where as prudent management you shift to maximizing draft capital. See if you can double or triple your picks in the first three rounds. Call it what you want. They need a plan to improve assets at all positions over the next 3 years.

Morning coffee musings 8/25:

EP is married to Katelyn Byrd?
Wow, quiet wedding!
But… congrats of course.
Everything about EP is quiet.
Does marrying online influencer settle things down for him?
Having a wife, healthy, bulking up… may be good.
Life does affect a player.
Vancouver time.

Morning coffee musings 8/22:

Bring back JC retros!!
Johnny Canuck has a Cup.
Kane ready to light up for Van.
Can he inspire DeBrusk sandpaper.
EP2 - it’s time!
Maybe Willander time.
If traded, better be good.
Not sure about Footie, but…
Can Kravtsov cut it?
Nice size and skill, but…

Interesting Kane has never survived a full season without injury. Having said that, the operations sought to correct a lot of problems, including a growth on his knee. If all have mended well, he could be in better shape than he has been.

Kane is not the first time Rutherford has been involved in acquiring a controversial player. The Kessel move helped bring a Cup.

THIS is the championship Canucks logo. It’s time.

Adding 6’2” Sammy Blais to the crash bros, Joshua and Sherwood, should make for some hard hitting fun next season.
#Canucks

With the championship success of the Johnny Canuck logo of Abby, perhaps it’s time to bring back the Johnny Canuck retros for Quinn and the boys!!!

Morning coffee musings 1/15:

This team continues to confuse.
Miscues.
Lacklustre.
Blanky had a bad game.
But he wasn’t alone.
Was it “just one of those games”?
Or?
JT played 14:37…?!!
No one’s being honest here.
Somethings off — and silence.
Ugly.
But there was a Hogz goal!
Next!

Hronek back?
Canucks 2nd last in shots, shot attempts & unblocked shot attempts.
Not good.
Need more O zone time.
But overall D good lately.
Branny to AHL.
Will rip it up for Abby.
JT and Petey show up time.
And time for Hogz goal.
Jets a good challenge.

Morning coffee musings 1/11:

A lot of doom and gloom after this one.
Granted, not a good performance.
But a bonafide star, 2 elite centers, there’s more here.
Quickness is an issue.
Puck moving an issue.
Has been a while.
Can’t win if u don’t score.
Good to have Petey back.
Nuff said

Morning coffee musings 1/10:

Win or lose we get to watch one of the already greats in the game.
R teams trying to beat up our superstar?
Hronek getting prepped.
Petey back vs Canes?
Need some bottom 6 goals.
Plus Boes wake up.
Demmer mended?
A regulation win would be nice.
Let’s go.

Morning coffee musings 1/9:

Another solid gm against a top team.
In their barn.
Then 10th loss in 14 OTs.
Fu*k Dubois.
And the refs re: targeting Hugs.
JT strong but tweaked something?
Hurt all year?
Boes hurting too? Quiet.
But over 30 shots.
Hughes dominant.
Garly with the goods.

Morning coffee musings 1/8:

Hughes playing with 1 1/2 hands.
Still Hart worthy.
What’s with all the OT losses?
Maybe fortune will reverse.
And how to explain Hogz dry spell?
Hockey is weird.
But then poker is weird.
Ever had a run of crap hands?
So far a crap hand year.
Petey back?
