We do need Bruce after the work he's done, because if its not here, its going to be somewhere else. His coaching performance this past season put him in the crosshairs of many teams

Don't insult mom and pop shops like that. Unlike Jim, those mom and pops can actually run a business

I think we could've planned the Cup parade had Aqua replaced Jim Benning with a tickle me Elmo

Frankly I don't care how they do it, whether its missing on 1st round picks but signing good UFA's , getting college free agents, i don't care. Im sick of all the losing

Im pretty sure he's got another daughter. Dazzle Benning. Posts in CDC, makes a lot of excuses ,pretty much defends daddy Jimbo to no end, hypes the prospects thread like they are sure fire hall of famers, and whines like a little school girl when hes called out on facts

I actually don't mind if Brackett somehow makes his way back here. Contrary to the Benning fanboys, Brackett was the real mastermind of Jimbo's supposed success in the draft

Finally a GM with some brains, actually wanting to go bargain shopping rather than rushing in front of the line and overpaying any warm body that can skate

My gawd you guys got Nakobe Dean. Insane value pick, who cares if hes not that big. He's a day 1 starter

You guys killed it though this draft. I thought Sauce was the best CB in this class, a decent #1 WR in Garrett Wilson. Breece Hall was the best RB in this class but I don't think he's as good as Michael Carter, but good value though. Sauce Gardner I think has the potential to get a few all Pro nods, along with my guy Surtain II

Thats what I was thinking too. So you WONT draft a OL for Russell and yet, you'll draft one for Drew Lock (Baker Mayfield?) LOL . Wasnt too fond of their picks except Coby Bryant who might be a decent corner

Im OK with Drance, at least he's somewhat subjective. You may not agree with many of his points but he has facts to back it up. Satiah Shah is the absolutely the worst thing going for Canucks radio. He's taken the Canucks homer mantle from the formerly WORST radio personality (the Moj) and ran with it. My parents are super die hard Canucks fans and they shut the radio or tv off when Satiah Shah comes on. He has all these made up analytics/statistics crap that nobody cares about, and there seems to be a new one every week.

Pat McNally his rights got traded and we got Erhoff

The last game we beat Colorado. The team played VERY VERY well, top to bottom and we had Halak in goal

Green is gonna have to work his way up the ranks again considering the job Bruce has done this season. Travis would be lucky to have a job scrubbing toilets in Rogers arena, let alone being an assistant coach anywhere in the big leagues. He's going to be an AHL level coach at least for the next 3-5 years

Careful now, you might offend Dazzle. He gets very sensitive when people diss his beloved Jimbo

Jets fan! Geez, mustve been tough watching the team this past decade. You think they'll make a play for Deebo?

They shoudve picked Malik Willis. Seriously, they finally decide to draft a lineman to protect who? Drew Lock? LOL Mayfield perhaps? Im not sure what Schneider and Carroll are thinking over there down south. Not a fan of this RB class. Walker is probably going to end up in the tail end of a time share with Carson and Penny. This draft was just all over the place in general

If you are winning, yes. But on a team consistently losing and missing the playoffs, its going to be hard to get discounts

Yup, Gillis left Benning with a playoff team, a 100 plus point team which was never replicated in all of jimbo's seasons here. People can crap all they want , blah blah no prospects, no cap, any GM would love to take over a playoff team. Fun fact. Bennings best seasons, his best was with Gillis team, and his 2nd best (this season) was when he got his fat carcass got kicked to the curb in Dec. His best seasons is when he was hardly involved LOL

You can't assume that Boudreau wouldve even been the coach when Benning not gotten fired or Rutherford hasnt been hired. Bruce wasn't even mentioned as one of the candidates as the next head coach after Green. If the Canucks had hired a different GM or interim GM, whatever, even that doesn't guarantee that Boudreau would've been the coach. JR is the reason why Bruce was here, and it just so happens, right situation, right time

You know how it is in CDC, all the over zealous fans like Dazzle, Elias Pettersson etc hyping up our prospects like theres no tomorrow. Coudl've sworn Gadjovich and Lind were getting their pampers in a bunch claiming they were all sure fire NHLers Lets see Rathbone actually get regular shifts with the big boys before he considered part of the core

LOL seriously? You're still blaming Gillis for the last 8 years since your boyfriend Jimbo screwed the pooch on this team? Gillis wasn't the one that signed Ericsson, Poolman, etc all that garbage players he signed. What about the Gudbranson and and Sutter trade? You blaming that on Gillis too? Pretty sorry excuse FANBOY. Benning had 8 years to get this team to be relevant and still failed miserably. I don't expect you to agree with me nor do I care, but the fact you still come up with excuses for the failures of your mancrush Jimbo, Im not sure if you have his face in your cell phone, a mural painting on top of your ceiling in your parents basement, hey who am i to judge. Its been 8 seasons, you're still blaming the guy thats been long gone, is quite pathetic. I bet you make a lot of excuses on why you have a lot of shortcomings in life

I agree as well. When Quinn, Aucoin, McLean, even Fedorov etc., guys who have seen BOTH Bure and Almo not just in games but in practices as well and say Almo is better, that speaks massive volumes, contrary to the Bure fanboys. Ive seen both and I think very highly of Pavel, our very first superstar. Best day vs best day, I'll take Mogilny. Mogilny takes more shifts off, but when he's on, he looks like a top 3 player in the world . Key words are "when he's on". Ferraro had a quote "Good players make great plays. Great players make them look easy". Mogilny made it look way too easy when his head was in the game

Depth Depth Depth. Stars get you to the playoffs, depth wins you the cup, and thats been proven every year. Star players almost cancel each other out, its whos mid- bottom 6 forwards, bottom 4 dmen which decides who goes far

I really hope Phil stays healthy, so he can break and extend the iron man streak. The guy whos thought of as fat and lazy...all time iron man LOL gotta love it
