@BCITRadio Grad. Goalie. #Canucks and #NHL news, stats, and opinions. I used to write stuff.

PSA: There is a YouTube channel called NHL Playoffs Archive that has a ton of classic playoff series'. Here are the #Canucks ones:

Every 2011 series except Nashville.

1994 CF vs Leafs and SCF vs Rangers.

2009 and 2010 vs Blackhawks.

2012 vs Kings.

@PartPhil Douglas was a good story but the Canucks had a pretty full roster already and they need to be bringing in guys that might have exchange value at the deadline. Douglas was claimed on waivers which showed he doesn't really have any.

Trading one of the worst goalies in the league to a team whose 1st round pick you own and whose other goalie is very injury prone is a hilarious 4D chess move by Danny Briere.

[Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC]

Toronto announces it has traded Joseph Woll and Simon Benoit to PHI for Samuel Ersson, Emil Andrae and a third-round pick.

@millerisabully @Sean_B_taketwo @Zer0PucksGiven Well I think its unlikely to need a piece in 2 years. This thing is gonna take 4-5 years realistically. But even if they did, you would ideally want a piece that is mid 20's and not a 30 year old to better align with the competitive window of the new core.

People talk about trading Hronek now but wouldn't it be better in two years? NMC becomes a 15-team NTC, he'd be 30 y/o with 4 more years on contract.

You'd get two seasons of him insulating the young D and then could trade him for a similar return with more control. #Canucks

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@Sean_B_taketwo @Zer0PucksGiven Picks have exchange value though. I expect they'll still be needing to use those picks two years from now but if they somehow were accelerating quicker than expected then they can be used as currency to acquire another piece.

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@RealJK98 It makes more sense to trade him in two seasons when his NMC moves to a 15-team NTC. Team will have more leverage without the NMC to deal with and he'll only be 30 with 4 years left on a great cap hit. He can insulate the young D for 2 years and then fetch a comparable return

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@Ozzygoose @SatiarShah Also not a question

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@Hockey_Robinson hey Cam do you know if there will be a fantasy guide on EliteProspects this year?

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@luptyd @SolitaireGOAT @abbycanucks Some arenas don't have enough space on the bench so the backup goalie has to sit behind the end boards

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@MantarBhandal Yeah I agree, also Desmith was very good for them this year

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@Smoke2487_TTV @NHL He got a critical hit on four attacks in a row

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@Hockey_Robinson @EPRinkside Thanks for putting these rankings out there again. Curious what is it about Yurov that has him ranked so low?

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@JFreshHockey 13% of voters didn't have Tocchet in their top 5? That is a choice

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

Yesterday marked four years since #Canucks trotted out the legendary Subban-Subban-Subban line

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

Interesting forwards lines for the #Canucks tonight.

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@TonyChiuPsy @Hockey_Robinson His 9 even strength goals is 2nd in the league

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@amato_mike Does it really change much? Wasn't it always likely to be Vanecek/Schmidt 1A 1B next year given how the end of the season/playoffs played out?

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

@sm27 Maybe, but at least he had lots of trade value. Canucks have nothing to show for their 5th overall

[Bailey Meadows @baileymeadows20]

Seems like a good time for a retweet #TimeToHunt

Don't pick Juolevi at 5

@VinceMackenzie1 @ThomasDrance They made those trades and signings when their team was already on the rise to being a contender, not when they were 27th in the league

@VinceMackenzie1 @ThomasDrance Last year's Stanley Cup winner, for one
