  2. Tell me a about if, may just have the series of the playoffs right here. 2 great teams...too close to predict for me.
  3. Why was today's press conference a bit late? @BradZiemer: Classy move by Trevor Linden to call Pat Quinn moments before he was formally introduced as pres of hockey operations today. #Canucks ...class act all the way. This move couldn't be any better with Trev :)

      Lets just hope the fans treat him with respect.. and not demand his head on a stake.

      have fans ever turned on a president that wasn't also the gm?

  4. You're just pulling crap out your rear-end now and positing it. Clearly this is off cause you said what he actually stated in the post before. Just stop
  5. They don't need a rebuild, retool yea but that'll be done within the organization by bringing up young prospects. We were close if you have a long enough memory. December? Everyone was healthy, best team in the league at the time...ring a bell? Oh yea, we were close and Hank is right. Freak injuries just killed us though.

  7. Oh alright, thanks ...feel really good having Trevor up there. He's so calm, cool, collected, passionate that of things go down, we can just say Linden's there and not have to worry as much when things go bad cause you know Trev will be always looking to improve the team. Sakic would be a beauty if we got him...as much as I want our rep and class to go up, I also want a person capable of their job and duties (GM) but Sakic hiring ontop of Linden would be huge for this teams label.
  8. I'm in class so heard bits and pieces of it but not this part. Can you clarify what he said about this GM who he has in mind?
  9. ...where/how in the world did you come out of everything with this? lol
  10. This is key. Just getting Linden = instantaneous increase in team rep and class. That will go a long way and Trevor saying he wants just as much on ice excellence as he does off ice. Terrific to hear that from him straight away. Hopefully that's the truth and he's not hiding/bluffing to please Aquilini. Yep. Can see the passion and desire Trev has being a BC native and how badly he wants this team to win. Having a guy at the top of management with that leadership and vibe will set the tone for the rest of the organization. That how you gain respect. Yea...Aquaman was so odd in his behaviour lol. Seemed so uncomfortable
  11. ...hey, at least there'll be no more suspsenions for Canucks
  12. Linden is president, who's GM? That's the million dollar question. Will it be Nicholson, Gillman, or someone else? I'm very happy linden isn't GM and president is the best option for all parties involved. I'd assume 1.) Nicholson as Linden likes people's resume and rep and Nicholson is all positives. Gillman 2nd and anyone else 3rd imo.
  13. We need a new president, coach, GM, assistant GM, vp of hockey operations, scouting staff, skating coach, goalie coach, zamboni driver, ice-crew, medical staff, equipment manager, score keeper!!!

      you're forgetting owners...

      Forgot about the guys that check tickets at the door too and security in general. They haven't done a good enough job imo.

      Don't forget about new fans. The bandwagon will be pretty empty after this season.

  14. If Linden is GM, you'd need Nicholson as president to help him out with all his experience. If he's not and Linden is GM, it'll be a tough time for him. Either Linden as pres and Nicholson as GM or vise versa...only way things can improve over MG.
  15. This team is hopeless with these greedy bastard owners :@

      Misses playoffs once and they fire him I can't believe this still in shock right now

      Exactly my thoughts

  16. Thank you, finally someone catches on. Renewal for season tix is April 9th people...fire MG before that = people will renew..
  17. Bad move as of now but depends who they replace MG with. Shows how greedy and desperate owners are for money. Want ticket holders to renew their season tickets and it's evident because they could've fired Gillis after the season but never. Renewal deadline is April 9th. This is so sad and pathetic. Clearly obvious what owners want cause they could've waited 3 more games for the season to end and then made the decision. Owners are screwing up this team
  18. What, the Canucks are eliminated!? :0 What a surprise...

  19. The Stork = tiger?

      Sure seems like it.

      But wasn't Tiger already somebody else?

  20. Yep, exactly this. They did a very good job indeed not rushing the music and essentially freezing time in those few precious moments with just silence and no interference, just letting it soak in. Was unbelievable atm, mixed emotions, just about everything.
  21. It was. Had it not been, the graphic wouldn't have Takers new record with 1 loss and the reaction from Lesnar and everyone in the ring including the ref would been noticeable. As much as I wish it didn't end this way, it did.
  22. With the undertaker match talk, been watching some highlights from the glory days of wrestling and man would a Sting-Undertakrr match be the climax. Doesn't get any better than that. Sting arguably the biggest figurehead ever in the business who revolutionized the game and Taker being the baddest of them all from wwf/wwe...honestly, it can't really get better than that. Very disappointing it won't happen now and knowing Sting, he'd probably only do it for wrestlemania strictly and nothing else as he's been the most loyal to tna as anyone ever has. He gave them life when they were broke and he's the soul of that franchise but man, Sting-Undertaker would've been legendary, and arguably one of the only legends remaining.
