  1. That team had Toffoli, Tanev, Markstrom, Ferland, Stecher etc. We are not the same as last years team. Plus we had 2 great goalies.
  2. at least Hamonic is playing well. He has improved 100 folds since his first game with us. Lots of blocked shots, love him already.
  3. I doubt they would score even if it was a 5 on 2. They were all trying hard to setup miller for that wide shot he let go. Spent 2 minutes on a PP just to have miller shoot it wide while Boeser is screening.
  4. He creates the worst possible setup even if we hqve the personnel. Bet he would have mcdavid screening the net while someone like chiasson would be the shooter up top.
  5. I say maybe we should put EP40 on a separate line. so ee could have 3 lines spread out. A line of Motte-EP40-Gaudette would probably allow us to roll 4 lines.
  6. Honestly its just too little too late for Canucks at this point. They have to go on a huge win streak like 10 wins in a row and hope that a team falters aside from Calgary. it looks bleak with 28 games to go. I hope they can make it but I just dont see it because our D is still weak and our bottom 6 is bad.
  7. Traded Boeser for what? Unless he was going to bring a young top 4D and a top 6 forward then that would be stupid. Not like we have scoring forwards to spare now. Trading our young players who were calder nominees is stupid.
  8. Aquaman probably will not extend them. So he doesnt need to fire them now, just let the contract run out this summer and hire new GM and coach.
  9. yeah but CBJ also swept the president trophy winners and cup contenders in lightning the year before. CBJ is a weird team in playoffs.
  10. Watch Benning let Boeser walk after his bridge deal because he just didnt have time
  11. Green is the complete opposite of other coaches. Demko has his first shutout against the jets, he sits him down for the next game against jets. Joulevi scores his first goal, he sits him down for Chatfield. I mean at some point he needs to realize whats good for this team.
  12. Yep, look at how Leafs took off once Babcock was gone. Now look at them this season. It has a positive effect with a right coach obviously.
  13. It has been 7 long years since Gillis was fired. You cant be blaming Gillis forever. This is Bennings team now and he shoulders all the reponsibility not Gillis. I think 7 years is also enough to see progress and expect a playoff team. Benning was clearly not the right choice for the rebuild. Drafted great but signed anchor boats and screwed up our salary cap.
  14. And the guy who signed Lucic is fired, the other who is Treliving and signed Neal is on the hot seat. Do you find any similarities to Benning?
  15. You clearly are defending him, to the point that you gave a reason for each one of his signings which I thought was underwhelming the minute he signed them.
  16. I wouldnt mind that. At least Gilman is better at Benning when it comes to the salary cap. Maybe Futa as GM and Gilman as an assistant GM. As long as they get rid of Benning and Weisbrod.
  17. You can make all the excuses for Benning but he is no different than Chiarelli. Look around HFboards and other forums and see what other fans think of Benning instead of your narrow point of view of him. Benning should not be signing vets to big contracts when the team had cap space. He targeted the wrong vets and signed the wrong FAs. In fact Burke talked about how most FA signings dont work well and you usually get good players through trades. I give credit to Benning for the draft and picking some gems but he is out of his depth when it comes to everything else. But keep defending Benning until he gets fired this off season.
  18. OMG I wont watch the Canucks if Weisbrod gets to become a GM. That guy is even worst than Benning. Aquaman should just clean house top to bottom and hire Rutherford or Futa. Heck I dont even mind Gillis at this point.
