Why not force Benning to buy out Louis contract? Is that any better? Well maybe Eriksson should play to the level of play that honours his side of his Contract. Otherwise Management will send him to the AHL (contractual obligation). He will end up in Utica, frozen on a highway in a bus for 3 years to end his career. . Theyve tried to move him, asked him to waive, to help him. He has said “no”. Then He can only hep himself to find his “game” again in the Minors. Far from your ritzy Swedish restaurants.. But they say the Hot Dogs in Utica are superb! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have players like Goldy, Gudbranson, and Sutter who have taken more than their fair share of heat on these forums, but I've never heard of them facing any real hate from our fans on social media. I cant feel too bad for someone if the way they can avoid the "Abuse" is to turn the phone off and do something else for a while. Its a big step away from actual, physical, in person bullying. That and all these guys are making millions to play a game. Not saying I would harass someone as that's immoral I think, but for the most part, who effing cares. Is this a joke? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have told the media that this is't anything. Loui's interview was misinterpreted by journalists just to get clicks. Not the, I have tried to get in touch with him but he doesn't answer. Really bad managing of a GM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like you said, things like bullying (and harassing his family) is out of line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, how insensitive of me. I think Benning should hold a presser in which he give Louie a bug hug and tells him "Everything will be ok" In reality, that may be a good move as he would be so weirded out he may just leave on his own accord. lol 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timrafan is selective.. and hurt for Eriksson.. i think it’s obvious he doesn’t care about the “Canucks” as our team,. Or the well being and direction of this Franchise. He seems solely devoted to the well being of this particular “player” in general. My guess is that he has an LE poster pinned to the ceiling in his bedroom. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, I don't think it's worth trying to explain. You say this forum makes us fans look bad, but I have consistently been here since... 2006? I have seen bad posters, the posters that do make the fans looks silly, come and go countless times like the changing of the tide. From what I have read from you, I'd lump you into that category. Just thought I'd bring that to light. From a real fans eyes, you are the very thing you constantly complain about around these parts. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sophomore Jinx Posted July 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 19, 2019 If I may share my thoughts on this matter, in poetic verse: Loui, Loui, Loui, you're the subject I must broach I just cannot defend you, like your manager or coach Your lack of try, laclustre play, makes me want to vomit Enjoy your time in Utica, riding buses with the Comets For you, no five star dining, no more steak and tenderloin Just "Rooty, Tooty, Fresh & Fruity", at the IHOP in Des Moines And please don't dare to cry and whine, Coach Cull won't hesitate To put you through the ringer, with a daily "Loui Bag Skate" But just in case the AHL, and all it's trimmings are beneath you J.P. is at your beck and call, just tell him you are through! Or better yet, go back to Sweden, or Loui, just retire The experiment is over, its time to douse your dumpster fire 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
