Could the leafs land Eric Stall or Eric Haula? Slot them into the 3rd line centre position.

Give him a coach like torts hahaha

Canuck players to get rid of at trade deadline, some other teams in the playoffs might want. roussel , sutter, beagle ,edler, pearson, i would put eriksson on the list but you couldnt get a used tampon for him. fire green hire babcock or bring back iron mike keenan who knows sometimes teams go on winning streaks with a new coach.

We are all Canucks 🏒🥅🚨🇨🇦

Going do Crosby 1000 game video?

With Motte out, Roussel has lead the team in hits and often is the only player to show any sort of work ethic.

Toronto will be fine, they’re in the easiest division, hutchinson just needs to be almost average and they have a good shot at winning

A strange move by Montreal, Burrows is the type of person who mocks your dead brother who committed suicide. Cough Jordin Tootoo Cough.

I’m not sure if Burr speaks French. Or English.

Brian Burke picked him up, thought it was Elliotte. Biega is next

Aaron Dell has a Frozen heart...there I said it

At this point, it's a race between Vancouver and Ottawa to see who finishes last in the north division. I would have thought the Canucks would have gotten a handle on the amount of bad passes and giveaways in their game by now, not to mention their poor power play so far. Miller's looking like he's given up playing as well last night.

It might be easier to name the players who are actually in tonight 😔

Roussel's a Sean Avery wannabe. Maybe even a Steve Ott wannabe, for that matter. A wannabe of a wannabe. Why Green even let him near Vegas last summer baffles me. Bigger clown than Max Domi. A C version of a C version of Marchand.

SO Roussel gets fined but Derek Forbort doesn't??? classic NHL Penalizing Vancouver for shit that slides literally anywhere else

So, Vancouver next for Julien? :P

Ah yes, Pittsburgh-Philly, the new Vancouver-Calgary

I actually think those ''Sprite'' jerseys are beauties

Roussel has been absolutely terrible the entire time he's been on Vancouver, brutal signing. Demote this guy immediately

Roussel should have been give a game misconduct and suspended. Kassian basically did the same to the Whiny hissy fit turtle last season and got a few games

Which state/province do you live in?

News on the Hutchinson situation. Campbell practiced with the team yesterday.

How does roussel get fined for roughing, but forbot got nothing for what he did to Hoglander? Maybe I saw it wrong but dosent seem to make much sense.

Man, the leafs are up shit creek right now. Hutchinson is not an NHL goalie. If they didnt have a buffer in first the toronto media would be going nuclear lol

I saw the headline "Penguins claim Friedman" and I thought you meant Elliotte!

Roussel should go play in the LNAH with all those goons.

dude...what is LNAH? Latvia?

Puljujarvi had to pull the fastest transition from being public enemy to fan favourite in nhl history. I take back all my hate. He’s pulled a couple dummies into taking bonehead penalties this year

Jack Campbell is close they will be fine

maybe the leafs ought to throw woll a start.

Roussell has negative value, no way any other team takes him with that contract. He takes way too many stupid penalties and makes many bad plays.

roussel and eriksson to buffalo for skinner. the money's equal.

I was caught jay-walking and recieved a two minute penalty for hooking.

Come on, Shannon, you can't fine a guy for stupidity. After all... "Stupidity should be a two minute penalty" THG / 2020

in roussel's case, it often is.

I'm surprised it happened so fast. There were months of "fire Therrien!" and nothing. The fans were only super vocal lately it seemed but it happened. Hoping this turns it around

Speaking of injuries, oilers have lost 4 d men to injuries this year already. 2 of them being top 4 last year. Klefbom, bear, laggesson, koekoek. Depth is a good thing. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Anders Alstrup one series win in over 13 years yah like the rest of the time they have missed I wouldn’t call that depth at all

@Dtrain 99 they did win a playoff series though. Last time they made it in they got knocked out by the Ducks in the second round, game 7

@Joel Inasia the Canucks have depth but some of them are injured for some fucking reason also the oilers yah look to of the best players in the league still can’t win a playoff series that’s not depth at all

Lack of depth is a bad thing... see the Canucks for proof!

actually, to me it looked like puljujarvi was rather crying than laughing on the bench. i might be wrong tho. anyways.. jesse seems to be a good kid. do not punch him. period.

bro... he was leakin blood and had to be taped up... should have been a double minor if not misconduct

That's beautiful weather for the pacific northwest! I'm in North Carolina today it was 71 Farrenheit or roughly 22 Celsius. I got home from work early, tossed on a pair of shorts, and went bike riding outside. The warm weather cannot come soon enough, although I think tomorrow is supposed to be back down to 40 Farrenheit or around 4-5 Celsius. :(

Zucker is SO important for PENS. He is a number one pick and was starting to click.

Everybody knows why Thornton is in Toronto....

I think Roussel might be operating on approximately two brain cells and it goes down to one when he gets remotely rattled

i think you're overestimating his brain cell count by at least five. his parents must be siblings.

what about the sharks outbreak?

That look on your face when you brought up Roussel 😂😂😂

The Blues have been playing without most of those players for weeks now. Surprising that it took you so long to notice. There is a reason the Blues have been struggling to get points, and it's right there on your board in writing finally.

@BestyHammar Really? Tell that to the media then as all of them were covering the injuries Colorado had earlier this year, including Shannon. I don't expect the Blues to receive the coverage as many other large-market teams do. But, when Shannon and others start making statements about how the Blues are in trouble, struggling, or whatever while completely ignoring the fact the Blues haven't been a complete team for weeks it gets frustrating to listen to when there is a pretty clear reason for struggling. With the amount of length of the injuries they're dealing with the Blues making the playoffs might be difficult. The constant shuffling of players in and out of the lineup and ever-changing lines makes it very difficult to be at their best every game. It's hard to live up to potential when you're missing close to 30 million of your salary cap due to injuries.

Injuries don't warrant media coverage. Plus we're not exactly media darlings.

I'll be honest and admit I felt exactly this when gunnarsson was mention but I don't recall schwartz and parayko who are def blues top line c being mentioned. Maybe I'm just someone who gives him the benefit of the doubt but I think he noticed a lot of them were out... And even if he missed a few, it's not like he has anything against the blues. It's just that we don't get a lot of media coverage and hes trying to keep track of 31 teams.

man i like Roussel, SOMETIMES, but man i just dont get him or his process

the only thing i like about him is that he's not on my team.

Weise's comments mirror my own thoughts regarding Claude, good for him. Maybe Poehling gets a second chance with the new coach.

@doaftheloaf Lazy or just ticked off with Claude Julien? Remember Domi, suppusedly he was'nt up to it either and got traded.

poehling is lazy. deal him now while someone thinks he has value. maybe we can get a 3C who can win faceoffs.

Raise your hand if you had julien being fired before green. Put down your hand we all know you're lying

To Roussel's defense, Puljujarvi grappled him like he was about to fight. And he stopped when he heard Pul cry out he wasn't fighting. Guess that's why it was only a 4 and a fine.

Yah that’s what I saw to but the he bitched out of the fight

Could you do a video on Ducharme the new mtl head coach for the season.

As a Canucks fan, kind of wish Roussel got suspended. He costs the team more than he helps and I don't trust Green to make any real changes to the lineup

Too bad Alex burrows isn’t coming to the Canucks to coach

Hmmm.....maybe I shouldn't have picked the Leafs and Blues to win tonight.....

Roussel is the player you're happy is on the other team

"you could argue Schwartz is top 6" He has been for like 8 years now...

I was thinking that too lol. One of our most important players for many years now and they always play like crap when he’s out.

Was just watching the cats in the background!

Hutchinson’s two games really haven’t been bad. I think he will be okay. and Jack is hopefully coming back next week!

Will you post your thoughts on the most recent Babcock interview?

Devils claimed him and don't use him. Kinda bullshit

Rousell should have been suspended, but honestly having him get smashed by Khaira next game will be more satisfying anyway

What is this "celsius" you speak of? my spell check states this word doesn't exist... On a serious note, the red underlining that comes up under Celsius goes away if you capitalize the "C"... sometimes hockey's gonna hockey...

man that is the ugliest jersey in the league, hands down..... the worst

Bear looks very disappointed in the 'Nucks, maybe even more than you

Rousell deserved every penny of that $5000 fine.

Good pickup Pittsburgh

I mean last year it seemed like they couldn't go a game without a too many men penalty but as far as I can remember they haven't taken one this season

How do you say roughing in French as it applies to hockey.

Roussel needs to get parked on the taxi squad. He's so useless he actually hurts the team. That bow and arrow gimmick a few weeks ago legit pissed me off. He has NO right.

It was for his agent that died that week. He was not taking the "Burrows move". But I am with you on every other aspect of your comment! Useless, taxi squad , etc etc...

roussel should have a taxi parked on top of him. it's 3 million dollars a year to help other teams beat you. you only play roussel when you want to give your PK some practice.

vancouver fans are so inconsistent not even a year ago they were on Roussels D now he's there whipping boy

@The Hockey Guy hey Hockey Guy did you get a chance to listen to what Corey Hirsh had to say on 650 at all it was a good take on the Canucks he did?

@doaftheloaf you'd be surprised, go check out last years video on the canucks, also check out the video "My Guarded Optimism for the Dallas Stars ". People love Roussel whenever it doesn't cost them, it's pathetic.

when were canucks fans ever happy with the roussel signing? dude's dumber than a box of rocks. he's too stupid to play in the NHL. he's earned the ire he gets from canuck fans. he does nothing but take stupid penalties and give momentum to the opponents.

I never jumped on any Roussel bandwagon. He can be useful, sure, but he is hurting the team right now. He hurt them in the playoffs too.

I can confirm that Burrows does speak French, in fact I think he was mostly raised in French growing up.

@William Mc Collough-Gilbert lol if he didn’t speak French, then what is the reason for his French Canadian accent

@Jean-Philippe Doyon Yes Pincourt, yet I saw a documentary about him on RDS that talked about that!

He's from Pincourt in Québec...Won't say of course he speak french but it's a good guess...

You can't put a price on stupidity...

@doaftheloaf here’s the thing asides from Jake Rossuel and Myers you are trying to convince to come to a rebuilding team the only way a player is coming to a rebuilding team is the amount they get paid the other thing not many top end players want to go to rebuilding teams so you are picking up veterans players like Myers and roussel if you I agree they are over paid but you had to bring those players in to build up your core. That core is getting better you have players doing well in Utica in a year or two you can bring them up

@doaftheloaf oof

roussel, 3 mil; virtanen, 2.55 mil; myers, 6 mil. apparently the canucks can.

One of your cats is doing a cat-face palm over Roussel.

As long as freddy is out, the leafs will lose

and all the leafs fans want him out.

Seems like everyone wants to punch Puljujarvi for doing... literally nothing, like not a thing.

it would be funny if puljujarvi was secretly saying things quietly to them that were just way out of line, but i definitely feel bad for him. this after getting attacked for dodging dadonov

I guess he says something in Finnish that sounds insulting in English or, in this case, French...

Probably because that giant head of his 😂

Jack Campbell also out.

What is going on with Motte? We need him back

@Joel Inasia :(

He is on LTIR... it is a big loss to the club, for sure. Dollar for dollar, he is the best player on the team who is not on an ELC.

On the bright side if roussel keeps doing dumb things maybe the Canucks can catch Ottawa!

Okay so the Habs fired Julien. Buuuut the Canucks can’t make changes because of the pandemic. K got it. 🙄

Yah the habs gm panicked because he brought these guys in to try and push for a cup but reality is catching up to them their overrated now their on this losing streak and he simply panicked

Shannon counting Ducharme out

This is exactly why Green needs to go. Roussel was a complete idiot last night, on more than one occasion...and didn't get benched. If Virt had done half of any of those acts, he would have gotten splinters in his a** from being sat on the bench so hard. An undisciplined team, with no real drive and no one holding poor play accountable. But Montreal fires their head coach for a week or two bad play. Hey, Aquillini! Instead of a vote of confidence, how about a vote of "get your a** outta here!" to both Green and Benning, especially Green!

Everything you said couldn’t be more wrong

Campbell will be back soon

I didn't hear any canuck fans saying "what's he doing" I heard lots bragging he won the fight. It was cringe

I say at 200k subs you get a smart board. Stop polluting the world with all those dead markers. All you need is one electric one.

Keefe said Andersens injury isn't serious and is progressing and Campbell should be back soon

Roussel's done this 100 times, decides to fire up the other team in the few games where the Canucks are actually leading. No idea what his thought process is

He is a liability.

Hi cats

Alex Burrows is from what i understand like you Shannon !! Apparently he watch all the game he can after 7 pm. if he is not coaching and can see patterns in them...Martin Lemay at the podcast On Jase knows him well and pretty much said he was a hockey nerd...Knows all about the game and played at all level so...He was the powerplay coach with Laval so who knows ! Great hockey guy and nice promotion ! I think he will work well with the offensive style of Ducharme for sure !

The sucker puncher.

i hate the leafs

You are interrupting the Cat 'Naptime'

Canucks fined $5,000 each game then lol

Roussel is always doing something stupid. Has for years.

And why, don't that jets player get fined for crossed checked hoglander 3 time that more a fined players for doing that

That was just an uncalled penalty... it was the attack on Hoglander later in the game that should have warranted a fine or suspension from the league.

Every time I see Friedman, I think of Elliot and get confused XD

why pick up Friedman instead of Schenn?

He can't go! I need Friege!

Samies

If it actually was Elliott Friedman, that would be 2 guys Sportsnet lost. The first one was Brian Burke to the Penguins in Hockey Ops.

Glad I'm not the only one!

I’m surprised Green isn’t fired yet....

Listen to Corey Hirsh said on 650 he absolutely nailed with this team but the one thing I will repeat with what he said is Canuck fans are overreacting

Or Benning...

i’m not, look what team we’re talking about

If Simmonds doesn’t sign in Toronto next year do you think hextall tried to sign him next season?

Roussel has been a clown his entire career. He’s more likely to hurt your team than help.

@Shane Nath roussel may be paid by the canucks, and he may wear their jersey and be in their lineup, but the way he plays, he does more to help the opponent. roussel might be the dumbest player in the NHL. or, he's a secret agent sent by a rival to sabotage the canucks. i'd be ashamed to have him on my roster. they're better off playing eriksson. at least he doesn't take so many stupid penalties. myers and virtanen are fucking idiots too, but they're not as egregious as roussel.

@Shane Nath I liked roussel for a little bit when he first arrived but I’ve grown to despise him and I hate him even more after that incident last night. He could possibly be the worst player on the Canucks.

He made a positive impact after returning from injury last year...

@Shane Nath Yeah I love him too. I like seeing a guy with a personality. I hate watching cardboard cutouts who don't show emotion or look like they're not having fun.

@Souless Shadow He's entertaining. I like him.

As much as the Leafs injuries are not helping them in the short term. It may just be what it takes to make them true contenders.

Take off the jersey... That is a choking jersey

@Parm :)

@Weird Champ just dont want shannon to hurt his neck ;)

doesn’t matter what jersey he wears the canucks will still find a way to choke

Toronto had no choice but to waive dell

I said Friedman would be claimed lol nice job Flyers

Surprising that Montréal fired their coach before Vancouver

@Atlas Feynman She being Philadelphia, Boston and Tampa.

@BlackHawks97 "Couldn't stop Patrick Kane" - That's what SHE said, til he paid her off...

@BlackHawks97 ok I never mention anything about Edmonton oh thought not really surprise they won that series they had Edmonton’s number all season long I saw that I had Chicago winning that series all the way but Montreal beating the Pittsburgh really shocked me but it either just says one thing they are on the down fall

@Dtrain 99 Both Pittsburgh and Edmonton deserved those L’s. Crosby and McDavid couldn’t stop Price and Kane.

@BlackHawks97 yah that’s Montreal 24 team beating out the 5th best in the east is a fluke

Got that notification
