Riddle me this #Canucks fans: for 2 years a big chunk of the fanbase stand by EP40 after he gets the bag ($11.6) and then falls off precipitously Fans dogpile QH43 after giving everything he had on the ice, bc he lets up for a couple gms at the end due to the epic disfunction…

How are the 19 year olds doing in the AHL? Well, Braeden Cootes is an absolute gamer.

Anyone still wishing Tom Gaglardi won the ownership battle for the #Canucks instead of Aquilini needs to read this. He's essentially stealing public money meant for poor schools and children to fund his arena. That's about as "Evil Piece of Sh*t Billionaire" as you can get.
Plano public schools plan to contribute $250M in tax revenue to the Dallas Stars' future billion-dollar arena. The funds would come from recapture, which is money property-rich school districts give back to the state to be distributed to poorer schools.

A lot of fans got mad at me for saying the Buium contract was a big gamble when it was signed. I'm not overreacting to how bad he's played after just 8 games this season, but people should at least admit that there IS a lot of risk with that contract (more than others).
Unpopular opinion, but the #Canucks are taking a MASSIVE gamble on a guy with only a year of NHL experience and 26 points for an offense-first defenseman. Put it this way. I don't think the reaction to this contract would be as positive if the previous mgmt regime signed it.

Anyone else noticing that the rage baiting political posts have almost completely stopped since Ukraine hit those Russian data centres? Another reminder that a lot of what you see on here is not reality

This article outlines the real issue with Eby's $10/day daycare fiasco. It's more about his government not prioritizing lower income families and allowing rich families to access the program in general. The fact that he's also using it for his own kids is just the cherry on top
The @bcndp's failure to create the universal $10 a day child care system it promised in 3 elections over 8 years has caught up to it this election in a sharp, pointed way. My latest in @BIVnews: biv.com/news/commentary/rob-…

"Many well-to-do British Columbians have been quietly winning $10-a-day spots for years, while others at the poverty line suffer on wait lists. It’s how the system was (stupidly) designed," says @RobShaw_BC. "That successive NDP administrations defended this ridiculousness, and refused to change it, is the real scandal." #bcpoli

Kevin Lankinen is under contract at $4.5M AAV until 2031. It doesn't matter now, but that's going to be an issue if he still sucks in a few years when the Canucks are hopefully coming out of their rebuild.

Vancouver fans shitting on Tocchet will always be weird to me. Philly sucks. Have you seen that line up? The Petterson fans blaming Tocchet for him being useless for past 2.5 years is like Trump blaming Biden. Petterson fan boys is a fn cult. Weirdos.
The Flyers have now lost all of their first 4 games (0-2-2) to start the season, and have been outscored 17-5... What's going on in Philly? 😬

EP40 doing his best Scott Stevens impression to create a goal. Just as we all predicted.
PETEY HIT TO O'CONNOR GOAL!

First coaching mistake of the season for Malhotra tonight. He left Lankinen in goal for WAAAAAAY too long before pulling him. No goalie should have to endure 8 goals. #Canucks

LOL! Elliotte Friedman on the post game show just said Cotter could fetch a 1st round pick at the trade deadline. 🤣
Absolutely incredible shift by Paul Cotter on the winner! Love this guy already. #Canucks

Tragic news. A bear attacked the father of Penguins forward Andrei Kuzmenko while fishing in Tuva. He passed away in the hospital. Deepest condolences to Andrei and his family.

Messier has either erased his entire stint in Vancouver from his memory or he has absolutely no self-awareness whatsoever and is just an enormous hypocrite.
Whoa. My colleague Mark Messier on the Oilers hiring Mike Babcock as head coach, during the ESPN NHL Opening Night media call today. "I am just horrified about the whole thing, to be honest with you."
