  1. I like it. I'd prefer Trenin over Scissons but not sure NSH does the deal that way.
  2. Yeah that's very fair. I will continue to try to be open minded. Disabilities come in many forms and can be visible or non visible and it should be respected when someone speaks openly about their own experience.
  3. Yes I agree, something is very amiss here. Maybe she was expecting a red carpet to be rolled out for her based on the promise she showed in New Jersey and previously in her career? Maybe the Canucks were expecting someone less challenging to manage? Sounds like basically it wasn't a fit. I agree, they should fully investigate. Let's find out what really happened. I was open to giving RD the benefit of the doubt but her interview today was not good.
  4. Oof this is tough to get through. I struggle to see what she is trying to achieve. It seems very much like she had a hard-nosed boss in EC, and EC's management style was too direct and blunt for her to handle. That is fodder for an exit interview, not a lawsuit, in my most humble not a lawyer and don't play one on TV opinion.
  5. Right that's why Ekholm moved over to the right side for them... that makes sense. I like Fabbro and Carrier though, for the right price. If we could turn Garland into Fabbro I wouldn't be upset.
  6. Preds are an interesting dance partner for the Canucks. They have the least GF in the league... Canucks have the 4th most GA in the league... they have a glut of D... We have a glut of Fwds...
  7. If they are in the playoff hunt and clearly aren't doing a rebuild, then I would hope they find a way to move out Garland and Myers... and then find a way to re-sign Bo and Kuz and somehow magically upgrade the D in that Garland trade (seems doubtful, wingers are not valued anywhere near as high as D right now) or find some cap space to do so in the off season. Not ideal because we would be downgrading in Myers spot, but it's not like our D has been good with him... better to take the cap space. Biggest hope would be no picks are moved out.
  8. Well put, I think this sums up my speculations on the matter as well. Not a matter of EC feeling "jealous" but more-so a feeling that RD had a long road to go and was being over ambitious and not respectful of the 'career process'.
  9. Isn't the idea to take BPA in round 1, and not target current positional or organizational needs (i.e. a RHD, or a big physical skater, etc)? I wasn't too up to date on this past draft, who should they have taken instead?
  10. Well said, and it's as ugly to watch from the outside as it is to be involved on the inside.
  11. Unsurprisingly, Castonguay has quickly put out a statement denying everything. Will be interesting to see how this plays out. I am doubtful there was ever any malicious intent from Castonguay.
  12. Dunno but the url is still very much there and active.
  13. Wow there it all is. So she's alleging it was her relationship with Castonguay that soured and Castonguay was jealous or upset about her her promotion...
  14. That was a tough win. Wild to see how the avs forwards can just blast past defense. They held on though. Well done.
  15. Was watching a movie called The Clapper on Netflix earlier, does anyone remember the Clapper from the GM Place days?? The title reminded me of him. The team was pretty bad and that was a thing to get pumped about as fans.
  16. I think the idea is we take a bit of a step back since we aren't uhhh...very good...
  17. Come on in, look at how nice and kickable these tires are. Never seen such kickable tires. May we interest you in a slightly used OEL as well? Kick away sucker-- my friends.
  18. Canucks fans deserve a hell of a lot better than this owner.
