[Report] Canucks G Holtby To Be Bought Out

Maybe DiPietro will be the backup. -
[Report] Canucks G Holtby To Be Bought Out
Dazzle replied to babalu's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Yeah, not ideal. -
Honestly, this is so embarrassing that we have fans who actually think like this.
-
You and @wallstreetamigo would be best pals. Sekeres is a fringe reporter. Plain and simple.
-
No way. How could you have seen these insider videos? I have never seen these videos before. I can't believe Benning is actually going through the scouting lists! TroyGamble is trying to enlighten us here about how scouting works. He obviously knows about it because he sent the link. I have no idea how else he could've obtained these videos...
-
I love how you pretend you know what goes on. If Benning was so useless at scouting, why is he kept then? Why didn't they just bump Brackett to GM status? Why didn't Brackett just bring his credentials to be GM of Minnesota?
-
Sekeres also reported Hughes on IV, which was proven false. He is a journalist, but his track record is very poor at this point. I think Sekeres has been blackballed by Canucks media, so he's struggling to find relevance in this market.
-
Wow, that's some amazing logic you got there. Somehow using your methodology, Benning gets stripped of all the credit for selecting picks, but the outgoing scout gets somehow all the credit for everything else. The lengths that people who blindly hate Benning go through just to justify their original thought....
-
He is Italian after all...
-
This thread needs to go away. He may be going to Europe.
-
They're more than alright. Benning's brought the best drafting to this team by a long Canuck mile.
-
Yeah, things soured between him and the Canucks, for whatever reason. The Canucks did not qualify him today, so he's now out of our system, I think.
-
If you didn't dodge it, why aren't you replying to them? The bulk of the arguments was pinned there, but I can bring over here in case you were too lazy to do so. I don't HAVE to say anything else because I know you'll say something that's the opposite of what you said earlier. Yes, that's a contradiction. I will address the bolded again. Who are YOU to assume what I want in life? By posting your crap, I am clearly against the BS, especially assumptions that are flat out wrong about me. I can reasonably assume that many people will share my values. I do not want to be lied to, or spun a story, for the benefit of others who are telling this story. I am still at a loss over how the media, with all its ethics and all, could come up with the Hughes IV story. You've mentioned it was BS, but you've never criticized the media member who leaked it out - Sekeres. Of course not. You've made excuses about how the media doesn't always get it right - well, is it not your job to be accountable? Bieksa even said, "If you can't get the story right, don't report it." Moreover, the post above addresses how the media does have a motivation to stretch out a story for money. You've acknowledged this openly, but curiously you contend that the media has less of a reason to "lie" than a GM. Which goes back to the outright lie of a story with Hughes on IV. Quit dodging and answer the post above.

[Rumour/Speculation] Luke Schenn returning to Vancouver
Dazzle replied to AV.'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
I want to Bertuzzipunch him with only enough force that he'll stop making threads about rumours. >.> -
Not to mention the critiques about him throwing away picks, while ignoring the fact that several of his big drafted pieces are on or soon to be on the team. Apparently he shouldn't trade any picks at all. The Miller trade would've been shot down by fans if they could have it their way. And now those people are quiet about it.

[Rumour/Speculation] Luke Schenn returning to Vancouver
Dazzle replied to AV.'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Where are you hearing this? -
@wallstreetamigo This note is for your pals. Most people want facts. They do not want to be lied or tricked. Saying that people do not want facts is a complete lie. The media is actively selling a story for profit, which you, FOR WHATEVER REASON, claim is part of their job. Your attempts to defend the media for their accountability is laughable because they have recently shown no regard for that in the Hughes IV story, for example. I assume you know better that someone like Sekeres should not be naming people like Hughes out in the open, and you are at least aware that people like Bieksa had ripped the media for reporting a story they could not verify. However, you have only returned to your original claim, which has long been refuted, without acknowledging that your argument sucks. Simply dodging these posts speaks volumes about your willingness to be objective. Thus your claim that the media is objective SHOULD NOT be trusted.

(Rumour) Svechnikov (DET) not being qualified as RFA

Sounds a lot like Gaudette. -
[Signing] Blackhawks re-sign Adam Gaudette
Dazzle replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
It's worth mentioning that few Canucks, if any, still have him on IG. I think based on that there's more to the story when he got traded. -
@lmm "Jason Dickinson...hard to play against" - Craig Button. This is what you said about Dickinson. I'm willing to wager that a) You barely knew about this player b) You have a bias against anything that Jim Benning does. Look no further than my signature.

[Trade] SJ trades Christian Jaros to NJ for Nick Merkley

[Buyout] Canucks terminate Virtanen’s contract
Dazzle replied to Where's Wellwood's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Hindsight is truly 20/20. Would you have given up Virtanen for a 4th or 5th round pick earlier in his career? Obviously the Canucks hoped he'd improve in time. He would show just enough to make ppl feel sated for a day. Then he'd go party again. This was no one's fault except Virtanen. Blaming Benning or anyone else is just wrong. Mitch Marner, for instance, was a hometown boy for Toronto. He turned out just fine. It's not right to use the hometown excuse.
