  1. Cull isn’t fired yet so prospects do better in other leagues…
  2. Hmm, how did he manage to get those points? Hughes… Let Petey be on the left side and our best player would have had the most points also. If a comparision with Messier is relevant it’s because Miller don’t invite Petey to the feast as much as he should. But hey, It’s Miller that wants a payday soon. Did you see the picture where Miller had his hand on Peteys neck? You should wonder why Miller did that.
  3. Regrding the comparision between Miller and Horvat. If both are with us in next years playoff I bet Horvat is a head above Miller. We’ll see…
  4. Wee, he might not be the biggest but who knows how far off? Neither you or I know $&!# except what we see in front of the camera.
  5. Not that, it is how Kingen knows the impact Miller has on the team. We actually know nothing about that.
  6. How many players except a goalie was developed as a prospect? SHL, KHL developed the foreign prospects…
  7. I’m not surprised. Petey thinks in a way few player does while Miller is the standard NHL player. So if they meet one on one Miller might win the first times due to experience then it’s all Petey.
  8. Green had him play with Pouliot for one… The desperation on Guds face showed what he thought of that.
  9. Not really, when the D pushes forward like that and goes around the goalie in a full attack it may cause mayhem. And 200 foot seems to be the standard there.
  10. Take away OEL and hisnumbers is worse. Look at a player like Tanev. With him the player beside him excel. Myers does the opposite and forces OEL to be laidback wich OEL gets criticised for that. Shouldn’t that criticism lie on Myers shoulders instead?
  11. Sutters hockey seems to work that way. First game I saw with them I was surprised how much Tanev was in offensive zone. With us he was almost always left behind.
  12. A little misunderstanding. I meant get rid of Myers and ”I think if we pair OEL with someone who sits back more he might be able to press a bit more and get his point totals back to his career norms” That decision free up around 3-5 in cap.
  13. I hope you don’t include me on that list. I just want the six mill off the cap. Whatever Allvin does with it is up to him. We got Hughes and OEL as the offensive Ds They both need partners that stay behind and those can be pretty cheap. Putting Myers on 3rd pair seems expensive.
  14. And give more values to balance his cap. The key is to free up some cap space. The perfect replacement doesn't have to come instantly. For now it suit us to find another Schenn or similar for around one mill. Just to let OEL get into some action more.
  15. Well, then you have to compare the D partner etc. Much of the difference depends on who they play with and wich role they have in the team. Do you believe Myers would play as much in the Flames?
  16. Is OEL meant to do the shutdown? Isn’t he supposed to be the second offensive punch?
  17. Gudbranson is around 30% and similar size and points
  18. Obsession with Benning… I wouldn’t say a word about Benning if fans on this forum could let go but they can’t. My posting is a reaction to fans obsession. with Benning.
  19. Benning screwed himself with spending all cap instead of saving some for the perfect delas. Evev I would be much better than him in that department and since I listen to good advisers I would have got the same players in draft also… Who needs Benning?
  20. A leader should lead by example. With Benning it was being a pos… The team had a hard time with morale during Bennings years. I thought Green was Bennings biggest mistake. Benning piled mistakes over the years I’ve followed the Canucks(since Petey arrived). Handling players the wrong way either with media or not communicate properly. Gillis is chastigated because he left the barn empty. Gillis managed to get close to the cup. Benning managed to get bad results while he managed to spend all cap, just amazing cap skills. So Benning made only one real mistake? I think I just scraped the surface…
  21. You look like an expert on Benning so you should really be able to tell me what Benning was good at beside agree on prospects his scouts thought was good. So what is it? Economy? Contracts? HR? ??
