  1. As long as hiring Benning isn't followed by signing a washed up Chara and having him steal the C away from Henrick (we already traded away Luongo). (Keenan -> Messier era was a very bad time as a Canucks fan) I'm looking forward to a new era and a new coach soon.
  2. Only if he promises not to bring Craig Simpleton with him.
  3. Did Hartley cry and say Torts threatened him again?
  4. I moved here from Van years ago, it's dump and the pancakes suck at stampede
  5. Guess you forgot the consecutive 7 minute pks for defending ourselves earlier this season? NHL says injure players, take cheap shots, don't retaliate, it embarrasses the refs and we will have to punish you
  6. If Daniel bounces back up from that hit, there's likely no call. He's motionless on the ice, they call a penalty, stretcher comes out, 5 and a game. That's how the NHL works. Hits from behind and targeting the head with the shoulder should both be out of the game, but are called so poorly and inconsistantly.
  7. I'm commenting on the NHL wheel of justice, not the severity of the hit. Definitely needs to be a hit removed from the game.
  8. Likely no games, end of the season. Overall, the hit is from behind, but not as bad as many. No elbow to the head, didn't leave his feet. Just a bad hit from behind, maybe charging. Get well soon Danny
  9. flames fans are disgusting too, listening to laughing and "oh come on" from the morons at my local pub
  10. Good news, at least he won't sell the farm.
  11. Big news will be we are sitting key players for injuries and bringing up some rookies from Utica
  12. Sorry, double post, I blame Gillis #foregilis (let's go golfing)
  13. If Linden is made president of the club, does that just buy Gillis a few more months or another season by making a popularity move? or will he throw Trevor to the sharks and make him coach with no NHL or coaching experience, I think Linden would be too wise to fall for that.
  14. Aqualini will fire Torts and MG and go behind the bench himself Thursday with assistant coaches Laurence Gillman and Stan Smyl. Smyl in complete disgust will take the ice himself, wearing the vintage 82 killer Vs jersey and take care of business.
  15. Well you missed two years worth of Fire Gillis. Mist people wanted him to go with AV. He's a player agent pretending he's a GM.
  16. Mike, berating the fans like that won't help you keep your job
  17. Gillis trade Kes for #5 or # 6 overall and tries to pretend he's a genius.
  18. I guess Rollie the Goalie say play on your knees, when tgat fails, play on your stomach
  19. New goalie same result. My argument over Luo is playing out. We can't score, a veteran goalie or a rookie goalie are prone to let one or two in. The difference is a few million dollars
  20. That's what trading Kesler on draft day is for !
  21. No call on the forearm/elbow to Richardson, goid eye refs, good call!
  22. Anyone feel like the Canucks season is the "Bring out your dead!" Scene from Montey Python? "I'm not dead yet!" "I feel happy!"
  23. Don Cherry made a cottage industry of what are no longer clean hits. Lining someone up in the trolly tracks isn't legal anymore either. On top of that the league is hesitant call head shots. They have a responsibility to treat head contact seriously, therefore they ignore them or deny them to avoid having to react.
