  1. THEYT BETTER BE WORRIED ABOUT SEASON TICKET HOLDERS! The retool should start with the first dull tool and that's you MG. You have lived off the coat tail of your predecessor and have not added one single top 6 player since you've been here. You've given away two top goaltenders for virtually nothing. The writing was on the wall with your first panic move with the Sundin Fiasco. You were lucky he graciously left before robbing you of $20,000,000.00 remember that? I can go on about all the other botched trades and terrible NTC's you handed out like candy which will hog-tie this team for 3-5 more years. Bottom line - you must resign. You have tried and failed. Something you can and should be ashamed of - yet have some self respect and quit before Aqualini finally snaps out of it and fires you. .....and take that over emotional Tortelini with you. He does not belong here either.
  2. Worst game of all time! if MG isn't fired after this - the team will just have to 8 in next game until Justice is done! This is 100% MG fault.
  3. cant wait to hear what Tortelini has to say...if he's still coach
  4. get this over with - please! I hope fans wear paper bags at the next game and throw their jerseys on the ice.
  5. WAY TO GO MG - LEFT THE CUPBOARDS EMPTY - DID YA! 32 DAYS TILL YOU'RE GONE WITH THAT OVER EMOTIONAL COACH. WHAT A SIGHT TO BEHOLD. DISGRACEFULL 111
  6. TORTS WAS LOOKING FOR THE BACK-UP -- BUT THERE IS NO BACKUP..
  7. FIRE TORTS AND MG TONIGHT! THIS IS GARBAGE AND COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE !!!! DO AQUQLINE- BE A MAN FOR ONCE!
  8. Can't wait for CBC Toronto to call-out MG and the team! Should be worth watching. We'll be embarrassed in front of the entire country on national TV - WHICH IS WELL DESERVED!
  9. No, but I'm not sold on Tortelini either. After MG is fired in 3 months we'll see what Torts can do. Lets wait!
  10. GILLIS IS AFRAID TO TAKE RISK AFTER THE SUNDIN FIASCO. NOW HE PLAYS IT SAFE....
  11. Burrows began his decline almost three years ago and has been on an extremely rapid decline to oblivion. He should not be playing top line minutes and definitely not on the PP. He reminds me of SLO-MO (Brendan Morrison) who in his sunset years with the nucks could not hit an open net. The tragedy is not so much that Burrows is now completely 100% useless - it's that we couldn't trade him if we wanted to due to the ridiculous extension and salary MG threw at him because MG was too lazy to seek out new fresh young talent for those big dollars. Let alone his no trade clause. I would suggest after Aqualini fires MG he buyout Burrows along with Booth. That wold be a go.od start.
  12. THE AUTHOR OF THIS POST SPOKE THE HARD TRUTH AND MG took the easy path and simply resigned them. It's another example in the long list of MG feline footing and taking the low risk path forward which he planned would buy him another couple of years as gm. That is what he thought - the reality is that the true hockey fans of van could see this train wreck three years ago and when MG should have started a methodical restructuring of the team 3-4 pieces at a time - which if had happened might have resulted in a much better team today. Instead he did nothing but replace some of the plumbers and hope the old players would somehow regain their youth. the rest is history with the inevitable results today. The worst part is that some of the players that were worth something once upon a time can't even get an assist now a days and would be borderline players in the AHL. Opportunity lost! Now it will unfortunately be a 5-7 year painful and very expensive rebuild as fans flee in droves from the slow, boring hockey the Canucks are playing. Too bad and now that Aqualini has settled his personal affairs, perhaps he can start paying attention to this team he was entrusted with and start off by firing MG.
  13. Agree 100% Burrows should be given 3-5 minutes a game until and if he improves. Booth is a gonner. Put him on waivers and pray someone takes him. Let some of the younger farm hands and 4th liners eat up some minutes instead of playing our few remaining good players into the ground. Tortelini's methods are killing this team - AND REALLY FAST!
  14. OntarioCanucker - I Agree! Tortelini is going to crash & burn really fast the way he's going. He's driving this team in the ground faster than Gillis. This old team can't handle playing a game on 2 to 2-1/2 lines a game. That's torture and inhumane!
  15. I can't believe some of the comments here - promoting Burrows like he's the next coming of Christ. Burrows has been ineffective for almost a year! Where have you been? Stop hanging onto old memories and get with the times. He is older, slower and constantly out of sync than ever before. It's called aging. The same thing that is affecting others on the team.
  16. Re Greenbean comments. Well said. A lot of fans complaining about the situation we're in - do care about the team enough to say something, rather than hold the party line like the homers on Sportsnet. If we start complaining enough and stop spending money maybe the owner will get off their duff and take action. Even the most rose colored glass wearing Canuck fan knows this team is 3 years behind in bringing about change - so where is it?
  17. Why is burrows on the PP? Why is Booth still on this team? When will Tortelini stop burning our few star players out? Where has the hitting gone? How come M.G. is still the G.M. after failing do add one single top 6 player on this team in the last 3 years? Where are the owners in all this and why have they not put M.G.'s head on a platter?
  18. SORRY - THINGS ARE IN FACT ADDING UP. Here's the math to prove it....... Unmotivated 30 Y.O. players on multimillion dollar long term contracts + NO Trade contracts + an overly emotional coach playing 2-3 lines a game - any hope = Early golfing ! I rest my case.
  19. Where is M.G?. He has been hiding for weeks now and is avoiding all responsibility in this franchises decline. Why won't Aqualini step-up and turf M.G. before we turn into the flames.
  20. Wow! Can't even beat the worst teams in the entire league. How long until MG is held accountable for this corner HEEEEE painted us in. Where are the Aqualini's in all this?
  21. Now that we have crushed the Flames - The Cup is ours!
  22. What a mess this team has turned into. Totelini is more emotional than my wife and what systems the team once had have been destroyed with the team playing Edmonton style shinny hockey. A train wreck on ice....
  23. If this game was boring wait until Saturday against Calgary. "Battle of the Basement dwellers"!
  24. Great opening comments from Jamaicacare and "right on the money". The truth hurts - but until Aqualini gets off his ^$$ and shows some concern and respect for the people of this city and fires MG - this team will slowly decline in importance and sink in value. Maybe that's what it will take for Aqualini to wake-up and most likely the only thing he really cares about in the end as it's quite clear there is no concern whatsoever about the success or not of the team. Only that good folks keep spending their hard earned dollars on the brand. As he undoubtedly knows by now - people are tuning out, turning off and leaving more & more empty seats in the no longer sold out games. They better watch out because the wave could turn into a tsunami very quickly and take years to reverse. History has a cruel habit of repeating itself and what I see are signs of the canuck virus of the 70's/80's in the distance and getting closer.
