But if this team gets back into the playoff picture come trade deadline, or is sitting in a nice spot, our 1st would def. be in play of a 25/26 y/o #2 C, if hes affordable cap wise, or we have money on LTIR ie. Tampa. I think thats what good teams have to do they have to keep getting better. Asset management. We lose a first we must find a way to get it back. Cant be trading away picks every year. Not every year will we draft studs in the same draft like Podz and Hogs but we need our scouting dept. to step up.

Hey bro remember the 2 on 1 with Myers the lone guy back in OT ? Or his 30min last game? Myers is a good player. He’s not Jesus Christ or Connor McDavid like many expect him to be. We are paying him 6M Not 29M- 659 replies

I like how noticeably different and better the systems were after a 30 min morning skate -
Early Take - New GM “The Group” and Bruce Boudreau
Johnny Torts replied to Johnny Torts's topic in Canucks Talk
Atleast when they’re dumping right now, we are running an aggressive 2-3 system to retrieve the puck. It’s honestly a breath of fresh air. Pettersson looked like himself, even though he didn’t score a goal tonight. His line was the most dynamic one out there. If this works and I think it will, Pettersson, Garland and Podkolzin are going to make each other very &^@#ing rich throughout their career. And Boeser. &^@#. Talk about coachable. The &^@#ing guy ripped one from the point on his first shift after spinning because Bruce told him to. I was one of the people “ok” with trading him until I’ve seen him being happy and actually vibing today. And taking words from his coach seriously and wanted to produce for the city. &^@#ing stud. Just everyone enjoying how they are playing, smiling, enjoying themselves. I love my team and my city and my fellow fans. I refuse us to be categorized as toxic, but instead, educated fans. We are the voices that will build a cup champion. Not just a GM, POHO, or coach. We understand that having competent people in their respective positions will get us there. -

Right? It’s hockey. PK, PP, whatever. It’s hockey. And Petey is good at hockey. IQ and $&!#, right? -
First off, I love our General Manager, isn’t “The Group” just the coolest nickname for a GM? Love Steamer and I hope he ultimately steps up to POHO and stays there for a long time, or just flourishes as a GM. Anyways… Coaching was the problem. Jim Benning not firing the coach earlier was also the problem. What are your thoughts of how the Canucks are playing under the new regime? I’m not done. Why did Pettersson feel closer to Boudreau to go to him and ask about being on the PK? Why does Boudreau trust Pettersson on the dot? Why is this team immediately doing better playing a 2-3 style? This seems to me like the reason why Jim Benning not dismissing Green earlier is frustrating, and the ultimate reason why he is not here. Despite all the other July 1st BS, and the bad trades. Because of JB and TG, the fans that are HEAVILY invested into this team and are educated, we’re left scratching there heads as to WHY a team that is decent enough on paper to atleast go .500 throughout the season, is struggling this badly. Travis is a good coach, but I think there’s a bias after multiple years with the same org. Benning, ultimately, had too big of an ego to admit there’s things he did wrong and fix it. Thanks for listening to my BS btw appreciate y’all.

There’s a lot of smoke around Berg to Vancouver. Hmm. just googled his name and links with him to Vancouver are popping up everywhere. Do Boudreau and Berg get along?
