I agree with you guys. I literally said the same thing to one of my coworkers, a trade isn't fixing anything this year. We are done. If trade deadline offers aren't any good, I'd wait for summer when teams are looking for a guy like JT to be their game changer. I'm about 94% sure this team has no chance to make the playoffs and at best gets shit kicked in the first round. I'd honestly rather they not make the playoffs and get people's hopes up. This team ain't it.
I feel bad for Hughes, Garland, Lankinen and Sherwood. Everyone else has been too inconsistent for me to have sympathy for them in this situation.

This core has been together for a while now minus Horvat. I think the core ain't good enough with the exception of Hughes. But then again we don't know where Hughes will be in a few yrs once he gets his bag of cash.

But we have both 100pt 1C and 2C playing like 3C.

Petey gets a big demotion for tonight’s game against Washington.
He will be on the third line with Hoglander and Linus Karlsson. The Swedish touch line? https://www.canucksdaily.com/nhl-tea...UplLhvbE4Ugu9g

So basically we traded Horvat + a second round pick for Hronek and a 4th. GG.
Also, fun fact, Detroit used that pick to select Axel Sandin Pellika 17th overall, who's a RIGHT SHOT defenceman that already won the SHL best d-man award and looks like an absolute stud... got 4 goals and 6 assists in just 7 games as a dman in the 2025 WJC. He is kinda small though, 5'11" 185. | If we paid Horvat anything near the Islanders did, we'd probably be in the same spot in the rankings the fans would be asking for him to be traded. Horvat did the right thing by getting out of here lol.

Good game from Miller.
Three blocked shots. A big shot block in the last 30 seconds of the game.

Ovi was out there for the entire PP. Watching him just hover at the red dot. I get he wants to break the record but man, get someone else out there.

If Pettersson was that effective like in his rookie season, I would want him to do that every PP too.

Granted, last I checked their team was last in their division so things aren't exactly going that well for Bo either other than the pay cheque lol.

Canucks have been giving fans blue balls for 50+ years lol. Ain't nothing new here. I'm just extra sad we're wasting Hughes' prime, cost efficient years.

We are so wasting Hughes years. He is a bargain at 7M. Won't be a bargain when he is making 12M+.

I'm not watching but I see that Miller has a Gordie Howe hat trick tonight and Lankinen also picked up an assist. I like that it's Binnington in net for all of this madness lol.
