  1. Is it so bad? Hughes/Schenn worked out good. OEL with Dermott can be fun and a stay at home Myers can excel.
  2. The only focus on goalies we have is a good, cheap backup to Demko. The right side of defence on the other hand…
  3. Well… I’m not a meme guy or whatever. Without Hammarström no Petey. for me that says a lot. Hughes on the other hand. I know nothing of that scouting process.
  4. And JB drafting was Brackett, Gradin and Inge Hammarström… Gillis had some bad personnel that seems to have arrived around 2005 as you wrote. Gillis hired Brackett so in my book Gillis was responsible for the drafting.
  5. Be honest now, Gillis had very high draft numbers compared to Benning. The important thing is that Gillis hired the guy who seems to be The scout the Canucks had. Neither Gillis or Benning was hired to scout players so it's just stupid to compare draft picks between them. The GM has the responsibility of the whole company. There were Gillis top notch as you said. Benning the worst I've heard or seen by myself.
  6. Can you give up simple minded analyse you got? You got Benning that managed to draft a few low numbers but after those players almost nothing. You talk about defence. We only got one jet and that is Hughes. Both Rathbone and Woo has to earn their spot on the roster and talk about them afterwards if so. Not before when we know nothing about their ability on the highest level. After the trading of a lot of dratfs Benning handcuffed the team with really bad contracts so the new regime has a problem going forward. No players on ELC on their way in and no cap to take on a good RHD. All on Benning The critique against Benning isn't ten years old as the garbage you're spouting about Gillis.
  7. Ok, the problem here is that posters here use that game against the Sedins in particulary. They don’t blame AV or the league… I like to put the blame on the right subject as you probably noticed in my earlier heated discussion.
  8. Agree, but a fair few here are stuck with the images of punching the face and nothing happened. Same fans that drooled to get Ferland because of similar negative images stuck in their head. Some people can’t handle negative images. It breaks them inside out.
  9. Well, the Sedins are in the game again so great offensive qualities, intelligent/creative but soft in top 9. Typical Swedish approach according to some here.
  10. His Reacher films was as bad as they can be if you look at the books. He tried to be a man he never could be.
  11. Those that like the energizer bunnies think intelligent players are bad. They defend differently but the bunnie runs around a lot more so it looks like he does much more defensively.
  12. He didn't fit the Sutter style in the Flames. Not good at all
  13. The only thing I could loose Hogs for is a good RhD. So Miller ,Hogs, Garland... for Theodore maybe...
  14. Pity, he suits BBs hockey well and would have been an offensive threat witha LD stay athome.
  15. Here you can read a lawful article. https://abovethelaw.com/2022/07/twitter-complaint-demonstrates-that-every-lawyer-everywhere-always-is-smarter-than-elon-musk/
  16. He will only be the best player if he sabotage for Petey. Remember my words, Petey will dominate, also be best, pointwise if not injured. Regarding Klingberg, he doesn’t fit the team going forward. If Allvin should do something it is to take draft picks, players and go for real good young RHD.
  17. Regarding Dahlen he had a real shot playing with the big guns there and didn’t put up enough points and was too inexperienced how to play in NHL. So ship him back to SHL where he fits nice. Petey would have got 100 points his first season if he had the same oppurtunity. With the Canucks Petey did a lot more with players like Loui and Goldobin…
  18. I’m still not talking about Dahlen here… It’s Bennings way of handle communications with both players and media. Wich is one of the things that got him fired.
  19. He wants to win. Respect that instead. If it isn’t gold it isn’t worth much. If second place was regarded good in Vancouver Gillis would be a statue by now. Is he??!
  20. Ha, I would say the same if it was a canadian player. You really are biased…
  21. Well, I think he was a child back then and I hope he has grown mentally and left the ”fan” view of what happens… Do you really think it was something to bother about regarding the medal? He wanted a gold and referees robbed him. He didn’t want anything else. Similar as the nucks fan that think being second in NHL is worthless.
  22. And that was not the point… Benning was an asshole and it’s a lot of things that made Benning a loser.
