    This. It’s the interference in the actual hockey operations decisions that piss people and management off. It’s never been about their will to spend or win. 

    It’s annoying with a meddlesome owner for sure, unfortunately it’s 100% their right as the owner of the club to do whatever they please. Aquaman could even make himself starting goaltender if he wanted haha

  2. I know OEL hasn’t been great the past few years. JB is banking on a return to form, it’s a risk. But how can you possibly win the Stanley Cup without taking any risks? Would you rather never swing the bat & draw the safe walk every time, or would you rather swing for the fences? You might strike out, but you might hit a 400 ft grand slam

    The constant negativity of posters here are too much. Who are you cheering for the Vancouver Canucks or the Abbotsford Canucks? 
     

    As mentioned before:
     

    Our team has gotten better with a former Captain and top 2/top 4 defenceman who is only paid 1M more Cap space than Meyers/Schmidt/Edler’s old contract. All indications are he will step it up as a true #1 again as he WANTS to be HERE.

     

    We get a solid top 6 forward.

     

    We dump 3 very bad contracts. 

     

    All this and we didn’t give up any good players off our team.


    I really don’t get some of the “fans” here.    Same folks who scoffed at giving up a 1st for Miller. 
     

    JB did the impossible yesterday and gave the team some genuine help in being playoff team. This team can do serious damage now.

    Love the positivity and I agree! Man, I forgot how devastating of a puncher peak Mike Tyson was, yikes!!

    Is this like Moneyball or something? I must be missing something here! 

    The funny thing about that story/movie, the Oakland A’s had maybe the youngest/best top 3 starting pitchers in the game in Mulder, Hudson & Zito, with Zito winning the Cy Young in 2002. They also had the AL MVP in Miguel Tejada. None of those guys were barely even mentioned in the movie
