Dougie Hamilton, where art thou?

on my fantasy team

Dougie Hamilton, where art thou?

If Benning has a do-over, does he trade Boeser++ for Dougie Hamilton right now?

Lots of Canuck fans were pretty livid he didn't outbid the Flames in that trade...

Guy has a lot of tools and offensive upside to be sure, but he sure doesn't look very smart in his own zone from what I've seen.

Dougie Hamilton has ruined the Calgary Flames

Top kek 2015

 

[banme*]

Savage way to have a goal disallowed...

 

[VanillaCoke]

Should be a goal.

 

[Josepho]

Honestly, Chicago got ****ed over. Technically, goals like that should not count. But at times they should just use common sense for **** like that. The puck was clearly going in no matter what.

I think benning and chia knew what Hamilton was worth. I also think they knew what he was like in the locker room.

Not really. Most were just shocked at the value that Boston thought was acceptable. Even so, we didn't have the assets. If we had outbid Calgary, our package would have been so above market price it wouldn't have been worth it.

a lot of canucks fans were mad that they are doing things that are bad instead of things that are good, not that they specifically wanted to outbid calgary in that one trade

 

[WTG]

Hire good refs regardless if they are male or female.

There are enough ****** refs like Peel in the league. Don't need more just because they jump the gun and hire someone less qualified just on the basis that they are female.

If the girl is qualified go right ahead hire them. I just want good refs.

 

[Knight53]

Damn, Ducks shutout for the fifth time already this season

 

[Orca Smash]

Toews is good at 3 on 3, two way center, can skate, good shot, win face offs. Throw him out with keith when he is healthy and that will be very tough to beat.

Holy **** that is mind blowingly amusing.

Incoming Kesler demand to be traded to a contender.

 

[Samzilla]

Every time the Ducks lose an angel gets its wings.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Captain Clutch

 

[Josepho]

Anaheim, in the past two seasons (164 games), was only shut out 5 times. In 8 games this season, the Ducks have been shut out 5 times. I feel bad for all of them except Kesler.

 

[Zaddy91]

Lol @ Bieksa

You suck

I'm talking about the anger and disappointment over them not specifically wanting to outbid Calgary in that one trade.

Hamilton is the 'type' of player the Canucks could really use going forward. Whether or not he's the specific player that would have been worth dealing Boeser++ for is another question.

 

[Drop the Sopel]

The Florida Panthers absolutely turfed our chances of winning a cup by dealing us a couple big ticket, dead wood players in Booth and Ballard.

Here's hoping Kesler and Bieksa sink the Ducks in a similar fashion.

Obviously Kesler is a much better player than the others, but I can't say I would be in a hurry to pick that guy up off waivers right now...

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

3rd Ducks game I've watched. Two observations:


1) Kesler looks like complete and utter crap offensively; decent defensively but offensively not getting it done. Looks like ol Stone Hands Kesler with no play-making ability. Cannot believe they re-upped him for near 7 mil to be a 3rd line checker. That contract is going to get even more ugly as the years go by.

2) Getzlaf is on the decline (possibly due to that hernia?). Shocking to see how slow and weak he is for a person his size. Perry has always been the guy on the Ducks, and it's no surprise to see Getzlaf struggling so badly.

 

[me2]

Ducks are ****ed for best part of a decade (2022) if Gertz, Perry and k Kesler can't get it together. I hope for the ducks sales this is just a slump, these guys were good last year.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Kane reportedly demanded a trade every offseason from the day he arrived in Winnipeg to this season.

If you knew him at all growing up, this is nothing new.

He made a valid point though of his treatment in Winnipeg.

He's considered a bigger villain for that money Photo vs guys like Pavelec actually charged with a DUI.

They were dead wood if you use hindsight, sure. And saying that Kesler is a bad player now is completely baseless.
