Inactivity creating a lack of trust for fans (?)
Sweathog replied to PetterssonOrPeterson's topic in Canucks Talk
They have to get rid of Green now and see how this team responds with a more experienced coach. Take it one step at a time. If replacing the coach doesn't help, then it's time to look at making roster changes, and perhaps getting rid of Benning. -
Kyle Rittenhouse. Murder or self defense ?

Kyle Rittenhouse. Murder or self defense ?
Sweathog replied to MaxVerstappen33's topic in Off-Topic General
For the last few days I've been following this trial as they've been livestreaming it, and I've looking at the evidence presented in this trial. While I question his judgment in taking a rifle down there that night, it's abundantly clear to me that Kyle Rittenhouse is innocent. The facts are on his side, the video footage shows those three people attacking him. The footage also shows him doing whatever he can to avoid violence or confrontation, before and after the shootings. This was not a guy looking to cause trouble, or to "shoot rioters." He spent a significant portion of that night providing first aid and putting out fires. He only shot when his life was in imminent danger, he only shot with the intention of self defense. The facts in this case prove it. This kid is getting railroaded. The media's coverage of this is a good example of why the general population, more and more as time goes on, do not trust the mainstream media. Kyle Rittenhouse is innocent. 100%. Cut him loose. -
Yeah, I have to agree. I've always been a Benning supporter, but like you said with keeping Green on and not making this team bigger, I think it's time for a change. Green and Benning have to go.

Id like to see how this team does with a real coach before tearing it down . -
What's your favourite Canuck related memory or experience?

The '94 run was my favorite, especially that series with Calgary -
The Official Travis Green Thread to end all Travis Green Threads
Sweathog replied to RU SERIOUS's topic in Canucks Talk
I don't think Green having signed an extension is a good enough reason for keeping him. If he has lost the room then he needs to go, otherwise things will just get worse. -
Elias Pettersson | Quinn Hughes - Contract Discussion Thread
Sweathog replied to Bertuzzipunch's topic in Canucks Talk
My guess is they'll sign bridge deals. 8M x 3yrs for each -

I don't mind this signing, but I thought that Benning wanted to get bigger on defense? -
(Rumour) Canucks concerned about a Pettersson offer sheet
Sweathog replied to cuporbust's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I'd add Miller to that -
(Rumour) Canucks concerned about a Pettersson offer sheet
Sweathog replied to cuporbust's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I dunno, the timing of this seems significant. It could be a message used to put pressure on management, saying that he's willing to distance himself from the team if things don't work out. -

Sweathog replied to cuporbust's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
My guess is they'll sign him sometime today, maybe 8x8 -

Anything over 10.2M and I think they should just let him go -
[Report] Canucks sign Travis Green to contract extension
Sweathog replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Why are we keeping Green? We need a more experienced coach at this stage -
[Report] Jim Benning to return for next season
Sweathog replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Beating the Cup champs and taking a loaded team like Vegas to 7 is quite the accomplishment. It shows that the Canucks are developing into a good team. This year has been an off year, that's it. -
[Report] Jim Benning to return for next season
Sweathog replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
One game away from the conference final, and JB somehow failed building this team. -

Glad to see Jim come back, he's done an excellent job building this team. -
Canucks fans pen open letters to team owner Francesco Aquilini
Sweathog replied to nux4lyfe's topic in Canucks Talk
This just seems like a typical overreaction of a segment of the fanbase who likes to panic at every setback this team encounters. Yes, the team is struggling, and yes, Benning has made his share of mistakes, but he has had by far more succeses than mistakes. This is a guy who started with a cupboard that was virtually empty except for Horvat, and has ended up with a team that will contend for years when they're finally ready.
