Not good at all.

Dead players skating.

The Oilers have struggled the last 2 games playing without Nurse and Keith. Pulled out a win yesterday though. I have to admit, I wasn't a huge fan of the Keith trade during the summer, but he has been an absolute pleasant surprise. He plays a secondary role now and that's just fine.

Predictions for Canada's team roster at the Olympics?

I think McDavid, Crosby and Pietrangelo were already picked.

Dems are fighting words, as in coach firing words.

I'm not even sure I can get excited about it the way this season has gone. But USA vs Canada will certainly be intriguing.

It'll be way more exciting than the Canucks, that's for sure.

I'm definitely worried about the USA and Russia (maybe in the knockout round). Wonder what the score will be vs China.

Haven't really thought about it, but Cale Makar would be a must with his explosive skating and offense talents from the back end to go along with Mcdavid, shades of Wayne Gretzky and Paul Coffey. And of course Makar's teammate McKinnon is no slouch ,probably right behind Mcdavid.

I'd love to see Marner left off the team just to piss off Leaf fans.

Avoid all leafs players at all costs.

They'll bring the curse along with them.

The Wreck of the Vancouver Canucks

The legend lives on from Gino Odjick on down
Of a once proud team called the Canuckees
Sumas Lake,it is said,never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
With a load of rubber twenty six thousand pucks more
The Vancouver Canucks felt like Humpty Dumpty
The rumours were true as the defense got chewed
When the goals of November came early

The team was the pride on the Pacific coast side
Coming back from a practice in the valley
As salary anchors go,they were bigger than most
So Benning had a plan to save the season
Concluding a big deal with the Arizona team
When they left fully loaded for Rogers
Then later that night the anthem she sang
Could it be another loss they'd be feelin'

The fans in the rink made a gasping sound
When the beer poured over the railing
And every player knew,as the captain did too
As the sharks of November come feedin'
Their goals came too late, another victory had to wait
When the frustrated players came slashin'
When another game came 'twas like groundhog day
As they brace for the Carolina Hurricanes

In the middle of the game ,the old coach came on deck
Sayin' "Fellas, it's too rough to coach ya"
At nine pm the whole team caved in
He said,"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
The goalie phoned in he had pucks comin' in
And the team and it's fans were in peril
And later that night with Aquillini and Benning outta sight
Came the Wreck of the Vancouver Canucks

Crazy how it's his best start of his career! It has become easier to score in recent years, but still, age 36 and 2nd in scoring is just crazy!

Only 18 behind Jagr for 3rd all time...

Green still coach? Look at Calgary,new coach Daryl Sutter paying huge dividends , albeit it's his 2nd rodeo with calgary, but had some really good success with L.A. a few years ago. Calgary wasn't much better than Vancouver last year , now they're world beaters .All players have totally bought into Sutter's defensive/quick transition system, just look at Johnny Geaudreau, only 1 goal against 5on5 in 19 games, that's crazy good.
