I'm sure Brock's family situation had an effect on his offseason prep.

Allvin is not going to do a buyout basically.
OEL is starting as 2nd LHD beside Hronek and we're going to bleed goals in the first few games of the year as that pairing drowns. Confirmed

Alvin on Ethan Bear (joking, or not): "I'm not sure that he deserves a raise."

That was hilarious and unprompted (or I missed the question). Posturing through the media.
is allvin joking with all these pointed comments about players? or are the canucks the first nhl team to adopt radical candor?

i want the bartkowski thread back
I like and agree with so much of what these guys say but it just isn't gonna matter if they can't clear up 10 million.
He was laughing when he said that about Bear but it wasn't a joke. Was completely serious about Boeser.

Context for the bear comment:
The question by Harman Dayal was (paraphrasing) "Ethan Bear was a great addition and looks like he's obviously deserving of a raise here. Do you see him as a top 4?"
Allvin: says some nice stuff about bear, says he needs to have a good summer with better training and learning, says he was inconsistent after his face injury. then adds at the end jokingly, not sure if he deserves a raise or not though! *laughs*

Vancouver media is so ass at asking questions. They all act tough on their own podcast but then just serve up soft balls lmao
He's swedish. Europeans are very straight forward and quick to the point. Its hard to do verbal gymnastics when English isnt your first language
Drance asks direct questions, I'll give him that. Everyone else takes the scenic route on softball questions and just enjoys listening to themselves speak.

Very Nice, Very Evil!
That is quite something.
edit.
How on earth do they expect to make the playoffs next year without getting OEL off the books?

Vancouver media (like most media today) absolutely sucks at asking followup questions.
Half the questions they ask are redundant.

10 minutes and i am out.. borrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring
The biggest takeaway so far that every prospect is going to have to earn their spot at the NHL level. No favortism towards guys who were high draft picks. I think this may mean if a high draft pick isnt putting in the work so will be traded relatively early on
