Yah Benning is the worst GM ever. Stupid moves any 5th grader could have done better.

I really dont like the trade for a D man we got I would have preferred a big mean stay at home D man

Instead of beating this dead horse called Jim Benning we can look at our present leadership GM and crew. Rutherford said if anyone had any ideas that would make this Team better come forward .
Lets start, now the trades will be for prospects and draft picks or young players like Kirby Dach for a Boeser and a first ,Miller for a first and a D prospect
2021 - 22
- Sign Horvat
- Trade Miller at the deadline
- Trade Boeser
- Trade Garland
- Sign Jann Rutta
- Sign Paul Stastny
- Sign Sam Steel
- Sign Olli Maatta
- Sign Andrew Copp
This fixes first year where they really screwed up this would have made us very competitive

First of all trade Miller as soon as you can pronto. He is a cancer on this team.

Wow loose one game and everyone is committing harikari. LOL The Nucs need size and toughness to many smurfs and marshmallows

Time to make some trades Boeser and Myers for Ottawa's Zub and Batherson.

It's all crap until management stops with the smerfs this team will never change.

what a bunch of clowns

Ok so you want to keep what we got and build on it I get it. Ok lets Build a cup perennial contender .
As is.
Left Wing - Miller - Boeser
Podkolzin - Pettersson - Hoglander
Pearson - Horvat - Garland
Highmore - Lammikko - Lockwood
ELO - Myers
Hughes - Schenn
Dermontt - Poolman
Demko - Martin
Rathbone , Burroughs , Dickinson
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes out, Poolman , Dickinson
Changes in , Paul , Motte, Gudbranson
N. Paul - Miller - Boeser
Podkolzin - Pettersson - Hoglander
Pearson - Horvat - Garland
Highmore - Lammikko - Motte
ELO - Myers
Hughes - Schenn
Dermontt/ Rathbone - Gudbranson
Demko - Martin
Lockwood, Dermott . Burroughs
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now Podkolzin , Hoglander , have to be 50 point guys , ELO and Myers need to play better , Rathbone or Dermott have to be good as well
No big changes but playoff bound
Needs
need to draft better to be a top contender. we have had too many misses in the top two rounds.

Okay first off this team is away better with Hughes playing then not . So Defense is the problem. Myers plays better on the second pairing OEL third pairing . So the Nucks need two D-men big mean that can skate and defend. Forward Brock Boeser could be traded for D help cant aford to pay what he wants or is slated to qualify for . Miller I would keep only if you couldn't get a kings ransom. Pettersson needs to step up fix his skating . He has to learn to play with emotion. Hoglander could be packaged and shipped as well for D help.

That and Pettersson continues to be a no show every game and just looks like he would rather be anywhere
but playing hockey. It’s pretty scary with him right now. Dominate one shift at least. He can’t hold onto the puck for more than one second. It’s just sad to watch.
Pettersson was ruined by Green and JB they new he was a fragile player coming in they should have put the toughest player they could find on his wing and one on D as well their Job would be to beat the crap out of anyone who touched Pettersson . Now he is but a shell of himself. Scared to do anything for the fear of getting hit .

Pettersson reminds of the Sedin's when they first came in the league. He needs to be around 195 lbs and take BO Horvat's power skating course .Allso I dont care what hockey market your in if a hold out is to be a top paid player you better produce . $90 grand a game for .5 points per game production doesn't get it.

Guys like Miller dont grow on trees , You build with guys like him . Not to sure if Pettersson is that kind of guy.
-
I would see if Miller wants to sign here if not trade him. Boeser would be the one that is expendable if Miller wants to sign here. Then trade Boeser.

but the frustrating thing is that he kind of had a training camp, and he's had enough games that i'm not sure how he lost strength and speed. Like was that not something he worked on during the off-season? What was he doing in the off-season if not those things, since that's kind of what he needed to get better at since his rookie season. That's what is more concerning for me. And how is it that his level of performance has dropped so significantly is beyond me. Does it seem like confidence to him? If it's not Green's system, and it's not Bruce's system where he isn't producing then what is it with him?
Maybe he is too worried about his suits , style , and money or just getting hit

7.5 mill for what 40 points LOL . He is lucky that he has Garland and Podkolzin to play with both can drive play.

Watch the Canucks win the cup with no roster moves made and sign Jim Benning back in the summer.
LOL lets give all the credit to Benning . In the playoffs the nucks would get killed. Love the team but we are still not good enough . Demko would have to stand on his head and Pettersson would have to play a lot tougher and at a 3 point a game pace. Our D would have to get a lot better.
-
Pettersson is more worried social media and his looks then his play Its going to take a few years for him to get out of his funk he needs to grow up. Too much money to fast.

If it was a trade for a forward or a D, hopefully he's 6'2-3-4, mean tough fast and skilled.. not soft.. not saying he's particularly soft BUT we need to get bigger so we don't get pushed around by bigger physical teams.
You know any ?

Sorry if this should be somewhere else but mods can move it to correct place if needed.
Anyways, with the emergence of the chemistry between hoglander and horvat, with Pearson pretty obviously officially being the passenger on that line if he is on it, as well as Rutherford taking over (who has already traded Pearson for a bag of pucks once before and will probably be looking for a shakeup) + the fact it actually probably makes sense if we can get a faster replacement with equal skills or a defenseman (especially with the recent injuries)
Anyone see this happening? Events could be lining up for him to be saying bye prior to the trade deadline or at the trade deadline.
Also, if he is to be traded, what do we think his value is?
We are winning and your already bitching about players . Come on , just be happy.

2 things I would like to ask Boudreau:
1. Why ride Dickinson on that first line?
2. Why isn't Petey on the 1st PP unit?
Does it matter they are winning, plus BB has a winning record in the NHL do you?

Should any trades be made before a new GM is hired though?
Maybe but waiting too long may might do more harm.
