  1. With both Axel Sandin Pellikka and David Reinbacher RDs and around where the islanders pick will be, I am hoping we can snag one of these guys.
  2. What are the chances the Canucks draft a RD in this draft? We haven’t drafted a RD since Jonathan Myrenberg and we dealt him earlier this year. Before that was Jett Woo. At some point we really need to focus on drafting our right side no? I hear the 2024 draft is going to be solid for defense but hoping we can get some prospects to help reconstruct our blueline on the right side. It’s a problem on the big club and not a lot on the farm aside from Juulsen and Woo. It’s night and day our biggest position of weakness. At some point we have to address this right?
  3. How did this CBJ GDT turn into a CoHo debate? Kent Johnson welcome home, we got the 9PM cannon for your hometown hatty coming up. Let’s tank to get that elite prospect bank! It’s the only way we get out of this mediocre mess.
  4. You are correct and that comes down to the team philosophy and direction. No question, it doesn’t matter who you put in if the narrative remains the same. Have to rebuild the prospect pipeline and depth pool. Otherwise we are royally pucked anyway you look at it whoever is steering this ship.
  5. That would mean FA would go to some other former successful GM/hockey ops doorstep and groveling to work for him only for FA to dictate that he wants this fixed and turned around in 1-2 years. How low will we go? Stan Bowman is looking for work. “Stan I want a retool not a rebuild, are you the man to turn it around in a few seasons, we need to make the playoffs” Rinse and repeat…
  6. Exactly, people forget we have not had a seasoned GM since Burke. Since then we have had FOUR rookie GM’s in Nonis, Gillis,Benning and now Allvin. It’s almost like the guy who hires the GM doesn’t want them to be the smartest person in the room or to be a yes man. Don’t believe me? The track record of the past 20 years and four management regimes proves this. FO has been very green for sometime. Aside from Rutherford who is now POHO. But that’s literally it.
  7. I love Seattle sports fans. Always loud and educated in their sports. Looks good on our management and ownership. I’m all for it, it’s what we deserve until the people who actually run this team to accept what we need to do. It’s hilarious the double downing and stubbornness of our team leaders.
  8. Uh oh looks like we need a new coach bump! “That’s a good team over there” Haven’t we heard that before? I believe that same guy is on our payroll. It was the coach tho right guyz GUYZ!!!
  9. A total of 7.5 million combined. And that’s without knowing what the assistants were/are getting paid as well. But the coach was the problem right? Let’s try it again just like that retool on the fly thingamajig
  10. Since being a long time fan for 29 years. This is the darkest. There might be hope like we had after the messier days if we land one of the top 3 this year and some more elite prospects. This is the thing, we aren’t close of having the talent especially on defense aside from Hughes. It’s going to take awhile but we have to start somewhere or it will remain dark and bleak. And it surely is dark right now.
  11. Not the first time this franchise has done a hockey legend dirty. Everybody remembers how this ownership treated Trevor Linden. Just a horrible way to treat classy and respectful hockey people. Such a embarrassing time to be a fan.
  12. He’s busy building this team brick by brick. Whatever the f**k that means. Organization is shitting bricks with all the bad press but it’s well deserved.
  13. I’m sitting this game out tonight. After going to Wednesdays game and last nights game. The mood at rogers is so strange but warranted. Only so much toxicity fans can take. But the noise as Myers said is getting louder, boiling over point. 5 wins in 22 home games will do that to a rabid fan base. I loved the respect the crowd gave Bruce last night. No coach change is going to fix this. It’s a roster and team direction issue not a coach. But here we go again.
  14. That was what happened to my GF’s sign. Usher shut that down. Just following the marching orders of the guy upstairs. But funny how we are supposed to have freedom of speech yet can’t voice our feelings even paying to be here
