  1. I think the OEL contract at his age is way too big for way too long. I would undo that trade, take Dylan Guenther and 12 million in savings.
  2. Crosby has been a treat to watch for the last 17 years. Probably my all time favorite non-canuck player.
  3. Doesn't Boeser have absolutely zero trade value?
  4. So what is your counterargument? There's a laundry list of failures committed by Benning including trades, UFA signings, Communication, Drafting, AHL success, Cap management, results in the standings and the fact that he just got fired after yet another season where we're on the outside looking in.... you have no ground to stand on here. The Benning era was a colossal failure, that's why he's sitting at home dying his hair flat black and eating cheetos on the couch and we're watching our rivals play in the playoffs
  5. Every team has a few, most teams have more than a few.
  6. We spent to the cap every year, traded picks, continuously let UFA's walk for nothing, have a horrible drafting record, have had no AHL success, had horrible coaching and horrible communication with lots of players and prospects. It's been a disaster. The only teams that did worse than Benning during this stretch were teams like Buffalo, Arizona and Ottawa. And yes we are now in more cap struggles, we have no prospects and the team still isn't that great, we don't need the media to tell us that, it's right in front of our eyes and we're not stupid. Benning had no interpersonal skills, we saw examples of it on multiple occasions, lately we saw him disrespect certain players like Toffoli, Tanev and Stecher by not even contacting them leading up to free agency. He got fined for talking about wanting to bring in P.K Subban. His interviews were awkward and he would say just straight up dumb stuff all the time. "We ran out of time" is a recent classic
  7. A combined 6 goals in 140 games for those 3 this year. Lind isn't a full-timer yet and MacEwen and Gadjovich are their to fight and both could be out of the league next year if they don't have a big summer. We exposed Lind in the expansion draft, the other two we simply just let go because obviously we felt they had not developed the way we wanted
  8. I am aware JR did praise him but I have no idea why. The results speak for themselves
  9. Yesss cleanse everybody involved in the failures and mediocrity of the last 8 years. Cull and Johnston next please
  10. I think we should cleanse this organization top to bottom. Ryan Johnston should be gone. Once again it seems we have mishandled some prospects and again we gain little to no playoff experience. Not sure why RJ is getting a free pass here, we have a veteran AHL squad and it still wasn't good enough
  11. You mean Benning? The guy who built a perennial bottom feeder. Also the guy who hired Baumgartner
  12. We were so easy to play against, Tanev was always a target on our backend cause teams knew there were no repercussions.
  13. Not just prospect development but the team overall has finished outside of the playoffs nearly every year since Benning and Ryan Johnson were hired. Our AHL team hasn't been successful since 2014 when it was still under the watch of Mike Gillis. Weird
  14. I'll never forget watching Hank getting rag-dolled on the side of the net after the whistle, the player dropped his stick whilst using two hands punching and thrashing him, while this was happening Hank literally bent down and picked up that players stick for him while still getting fed...it was honestly just awkward. And we all remember the rat speed bagging Daniel in the SCF. Two absolute legends, good leaders in their own right but that is not the culture that wins you anything, proof being our history of Stanley Cups. @Locke Lamora
  15. Why does Ryan Johnson get praise? Our AHL club has consistently missed the playoffs up until this year where we're being led by a veteran group, we have churned out literally zero prospects and not just that but we've had prospects simply leave saying they don't even know what they were supposed to be doing.. His reign has been equally as disappointing as Benning's, he should be gone as well.
  16. No the leafs suck and can't win in the playoffs but are led by a freak elite goal scorer and high powered offense. Bergeron has only been captain for two seasons and the bruins have had that culture for 50 years, previously led by Zdeno Chara who would kick the crap out of anyone who even looked at one of his teammates. Bad examples, thanks for the chuckle though.
  17. I'm so infuriated that we actually mortgaged our future for this. All the big name UFA's we lost are going to the playoffs and we're not because we let them go so we could "improve"
  18. Hawks down 2-0 and only have 6sog more than halfway through the game
  19. Benning pushed our chips all-in and still couldn't even squeak us into the playoffs. Gross.
