So running multiple shutdown lines is only good if you have tons of offence coming from your #1 line. See Anaheim, Dallas and Pittsburgh could get away with having multiple shutdown lines. Having defensively responsible lines is different. However, Vancouver has a bunch of young guys making up 25% of their lines, so it remains to be seen if that is better than last year. Can't really say they are better than last year at center though. I think that's overrating them a bit.

Canucks depth at center is not better than last year, if anything it's worse.

The 2nd would be the lost asset, not Vey then. You were arguing that Vey is a lost asset, where in this case the lost asset was lost a season ago when they gave a pick up for him. Regardless don't tell me to gtfo if you bring Common into a discussion, he didn't do anything wrong.

It could be yeah, but like I said not every broken nose means blood. In fact most times its in pain but blood doesn't show. The point being even if it was on the wheel, the ground or anything it's hard to really prove his blood was there from this accident with him in the front seat. For all we know he could have started bleeding and the blood sprayed into the front from where he was sitting. You feel that way, but sadly a lot of people are sent to a behavioural health program for drinking. Substance abuse does have alcoholics in it too. That's just assuming he has a cocaine issue and thats not really fair to him.

It's not an asset anymore if it has regressed so much that it isn't even AHL calibre, come on now.

Lest we forget The Q

Good team win, shots all around.

Solid two points guys!

Vey is an asset? I'm not sure why you aren't really getting the whole "Vey was a blackhole" "Isn't worth anything" part. If he gets claimed on waivers, sweet that means the Canucks clear room in an organization looking for quality players, not cap fillers.

Broken nose doesn't mean blood for the record. The average person breaks their nose and has no clue about it. DNA may be found there but how are you going to prove it was him behind the wheel at that given time? Coc'd out? Are you referring to cocaine? Because I think it was a drinking issue and cocaine wasn't his reported drug of choice.

Would that not mean keeping 8 defensemen on the roster?

Who cares? If a player plays himself off a team why would it matter if he goes to waivers? You won't get anything for him.

Yeah I had no clue where the name came from, just knew it was a Samoan background.

I hope he does too. Wasn't a fan of him on the ice but off the ice he really wasn't a horrible guy. He obviously has a drinking problem and that is something he will look to rid himself from. I think the injury might be something that isn't as bad, but they can make it look worse just to buy him some extra time. Not a bad thing and not something rare in sports.

Also, apparently Kassian is being suspected as switching seats with the person who ended up in the driver seat. Obviously hard to prove without photo evidence though. His injury though may prove that was the case.

Realistically most teams put a "Corrado" on waivers. Yes he is young, but he wasn't progressing like other players have. It makes sense and in the grand scheme of things you can thank Gillis for that.

You can't believe? Vey is a blackhole in the opposing teams zone.

5th season

You must be new to the whole process of HOF. It goes with numbers, his do add up.

Another week has come and gone and our draft class is making it really easy to separate the hard workers from the prospects with no drive. The top half of the rankings features a bunch of prospects all staking their name for a first round selection, but overall this draft has tailed off big time. In any draft there are prospects that pull ahead and then there are some who get lost in the dust left behind. It appears this years theme could be summed up using the word "inconsistent", and that doesn't bode well for the VHL teams. I usually try to stay positive on these rankings to show you that the entire draft board shows promise. Now that is partly true, this draft board has shown promise but it appears in the past few weeks that welfare has become their friend as well. I should also mention that the VHLM Practice Facility takes two seconds to complete and some of these prospect can't even claim that. That being said I should give you the roundup and end this rant. This week saw Cooper Supernaw outperforming all his peers and moving up 4 spots to a second round selection area. Supernaw is one of the newest and last prospects to declare for this draft. Cooper hasn't let that stop him, as he has been on a torrid pace to catch up to the other prospects. Niels Skovsgard, Jordan Maverick and Gregory Fallum also made headway this week. Our top three prospects stayed intact for this week, but the rest are gaining on them. This weeks theme is travel and origins of the prospects. Now we didn't go as in-depth with this as last year because we found it was a lot of work to announce hometowns of prospects who decided to give up faster than you can say "Bill Cosy is innocent", however we did cover some facts about the draft class. Here they are!

Good career!

I doubt it. He countered, which means the timeline of that could come before or after it got out. Now if he offered initially than yeah I'd agree it might be before it all got out. The fact she went after 3 Million right away though somewhat makes this a little more stacked against her.

Another win against the Gow's.
