I don’t know why you’re always so condescending on any Canucks posts. Do you work in their head office? I can appreciate all the statistical and salary cap analysis that’s all data that’s available, but to act like you know every single thing happening from an administrative and managerial perspective? It’s just your opinion, not fact. |  Quote:

You could have easily verified his comments yourself if you doubted him. Quote:

It isn't hard to find Tweets or articles indicating that Tanev's camp hadn't received an offer or that Toffoli's camp hadn't had serious discussions or that most of the negotiations have revolved around Markstrom.
What about this is condescending? Quote:

Maybe that was Hughes plan. Tkachuk plays dirty so get on his good side so he doesn't take out our best promising young player who happens to be smaller than everyone else too.  | |

"Literally the first result on google" "The ease with which one can find that information"................ how much more arrogant can you sound than that?
Yah my "sounds reliable" comment was snarky, on purpose, cuz of these "Uhm, duh, look at this link idiot" posts... like no shit what Canucks fan doesn't know what Toffoli said to the media after the season ended, I am well aware of that fact, but that doesn't mean fuck all with what his actual intentions are, and you know that full well yourself, nor does it have any bearing on what you or anyone else knows about the negotiations that did or didn't happen behind the scenes.
I'll go one example farther, your reply to a previous post of mine: "He started on the top line, got swapped for Motte (who took 2 penalties, both of which resulted in PP goals), got another chance on the top line." I already said Jake had spent "most of 2 games" on the 4th line, which is accurate, but you felt the need 20 minutes later to post right after me insinuating that what I said was factually incorrect with the Jmac clarification of what transpired because of course whatever you say is more accurate and knowledgeable and correct than whatever anyone else says right?
Whatever just my opinion, I said I like a lot of your posts and rule analysis, just don't know why when it comes to me in particular over the year it seems like you follow my posts around on purpose looking down your nose at me.

I hope that cutie sings the national anthem. Mary, Marie, Margaret, Mandy, whatever. Hui.
Cute trumps all.
She has also improved a lot since her debut. She always had good intonation, but had phrasing and breathing issues. All good now. The amount of embellishments have also been addressed. Did I mention cute? Effervescent personality = win!
Just Saiyan...............

The Hughes and Tkachuk family are actually really close family friends so Quinn and Matthew were probably just happy to be playing against each other.
It was pointed out that Tkachuk could've lit up Hughes with a hit during that same game but pulled off at the last second.

I have a positive feeling about tonight's game. If Miranda sings the anthem, even better.
Go, Canucks, GO!
