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.

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.

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.
