  1. I wish him no ill will, and hope he has a successful career. he was never really the heart and soul of the team, though he was certainly supposed to be. I was excited when he was named captain, but was always dissatisfied with him as captain of the Canuck’s. more then happy with the return
  2. I really hope you’re right, and all these hires work out perfect, because once he retires, which is soon…. We will be left with nearly all armatures in their position
  3. Yes we have a 72 year old Rutherford who will be retiring in two to three years. So then we will have no experience again to be falling back on…
  4. I agree it’s awesome we have Rutherford, but he is 72 and nearly out the door. So unless these hirings work out perfect we are going to be starting again in a few years.
  5. That’s awesome that you’ve found evidence of it working in other organizations, unfortunately our track record is terrible when it comes to training our GMs, coaches, presidents…. At some point we need to stop hiring new people in positions
  6. You’re right, I am attributing our past failures with newly minted coaches, presidents, GMs, and assistant GMs of our past to what is currently happening. I’m fairly tired of us being a place for people to come and learn how to do their jobs. I like to see that they already have connections around the league, and a track history of either success or failure. I want a cup, and teaching new people I think will just delay the process of us getting there
  7. I have no problem with women working in hockey, I have a problem with the fact that we have a history of hiring people for GM, assistant GM, head coach, assistant coach who have very little to no experience at the nhl level in the roles. And look how that has gone for us, mediocrity and a constant rebuild as they learn on the fly…. You may want to make this about what sex she is, but it’s about lack of experience in our organization again. Rutherford is not young and has to be retiring in the next couple of years, so then all we have are newly minted people in positions with no leader.
  8. Hahaha, fair enough. Truths tend to come from those of the name Kyle
  9. Yay!! More people in prominent positions with next to no experience in the role they’re being hired for!! Groundbreaking!!!
  10. Well I keep reading her experience and there’s not much to read, so could you please point out what makes her qualified to be an assistant GM in the NHL. Or is it just to get ahead of the curve, so they hire a young woman instead of an experienced and tenured man.. I have no problem with a woman in the role, as long as it’s deserved and not forced
  11. I sure did, I have read the credentials of our last few GMs and head coaches too. They looked great!! Where has that left us?
  12. Really hoping this isn’t a woke moment, and she is actually good at her job. Our history of hiring inexperienced coaches and GMs have done nothing but left us on the outside looking in…
  13. I'm happy his jersey is being retired in Florida, hope that means it won't happen here too!! He was mostly great for us, but not here for long enough and didn't do enough to be in the rafters for us. Let's save that place for the first goalie who wins us a cup...
  14. Nah, let's blow it all up... 90+
