I don't think there is a team I dislike more than I want to see do well... They're just so damn likeable, Hughes, Petersson, Kuzmenko are all such easy guys to cheer for and with the roster above it would be impossible not to root for Tanev. Nylander would be such a good addition to this roster. Even without the Nylander stuff, Canucks are the next team to bring a cup to Canada, book that.

Miller can definitely be a ****-disturber and very physical, but he's also so passionate. Like his problem is literally that he can be TOO passionate. I can see him generating some hate. I know Edmonton fan were really pissed at Hoglander after last game. He's that small pest type, which teams love to hate. But the good thing is no one on this team is dirty.

Pettersson is honestly one of the classiest players I've ever seen, and this is from a team that had the Sedins and Linden. Like, I could show you so many clips of him showing concern or care for the opposition that I've literally never seen any NHL player show. He should have had Bing consideration for ages.

Kuz is just one of the most likeable players I've ever seen. That smile, man.

Hughes is just one of the most magical players to watch. Like seriously, he's just different.

Tanev is the best person as like team dad/leader. I hate that we lost him.

I appreciate why you feel that way and stating it despite your fan hatred for the team itself. Honestly, I hate the Flames, although it's like 20% Canucks at times, and there's definitely some schadenfreude with them and the Oilers doing bad, especially since that helps the Canucks. But on the other hand, I also want them to be great (although a little less than the Canucks) so we can have amazing games and rivalries.

I really want to see Calgary do a tear-it-down rebuild the right way. Not because I want them to be bad but because I want them to be good and not go through what Canucks did. You deserve better than years of mediocrity and not competing so we can get back to hating each other in the fun way rivals can.

I appreciate the "big game hunting" idea, but I still think if they're going hunting they should be adding a very good defender before a winger. Tanev would be great for a year (maybe two), but if they can add one more long-term piece that's a difference maker like Hronek has been then they'll be in much better shape.

Willander and lekkerimaki are more like 2025-26 players imo, hard to bank on them making the team next year.

I agree, although I don't know if we'll find that in free agency. I'm going to keep pounding the drum for Weegar. I also prefer Reinhart if we're going hunting since he's also a center.



I agree. Obviously not absolutely, but 90% likely not on team.
