Please fire Benning. It's not because of Benning the person. It's 7 years of little success, mostly failures, and saying "there's always next year". We went from Mike Gillis who was smart/diligent/innovative/cut-throat and set out a clear objective to win the cup every year and was a game away from accomplishing it, to Jim 'I ran outta time' Benning. Lol.....

[Signing] Canadiens sign Tyler Toffoli
Seinfeld replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
If this monstrosity of a free agency/off-season is what it takes for our clueless GM to finally get fired, I'm all for it. Short-term pain for long-term gain. Jim Benning, folks! -
[Signing] Flames sign Christopher Tanev

Can’t hate Virtanen. He’s living every BC kids dream of playing for their home town team. So what he likes to have a good time. I would be doing the same thing. Rooting for him to improve again this coming season.

One of Eriksson/Sutter/Beagle/Roussel/Myers has to be going back. A well run team would find a way to make to make this work. Sadly we have Benning at the forefront.

Maybe it's just me, but I would rather keep building on those established relationships with players like Horvat, Pettersson, and Miller rather than jump to the next opportunity. The Canucks are on the rise and he just jumps ship like that? Why not be a part of something you helped build? He's been an assistant for 3 years, he's not some sort of long-time assistant coach waiting in the wings for a chance; he still has some dues to pay. Idk, loyalty is few and far between in professional sports I guess.

Wow. First Luongo and now this. You would think Malhotra would have some loyalty towards the org? Guess not.

Seriously. Vegas might be most impressive team systems-wise I've ever watched. Like, how could a team with a bunch of cast offs play such a relentless/fast/transitional style? This iteration of the VGK is going to go down in history as one of the most bizarre phenomenons in sports history for how good they got so fast.

Green is an egomaniac. He is going to take his awful idea of LE being a defensively responsible winger thus he deserves to be in the top-six to the grave it seems like. It's not rocket science. You put your six best players who have shown to have chemistry and success in the past in the top-six. Easy. Simple. Yet, Green thinks he's Scotty Bowman reincarnated and is trying to justify his terrible lineup decisions by being stubborn about it. Anyone remember why he took Virtanen off the top line for no apparent reason??

[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Columbus Blue Jackets | Mar. 01, 2020
Seinfeld replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I grew up during the WCE era so I have been pretty lucky I guess because we dominated the Northwest division. And then we had the Luongo/Sedin era. I guess it depends when you started watching so I get your point. -
Miller has been amazing and the co-MVP with Markstrom. However, he needs to use his line-mates better. He gets bad tunnel vision and holds onto the puck for too long a lot of the time. So many instances where EP is open and Miller decides to do a lap instead and the scoring opportunity is wasted.

Strongly considering becoming a Devils fan if this happens and if Benning and Green are still here after the season.

Paterson mentioned it on the TSN1040 post-game show last night. Yup. Both the GM and Coach need to be fired. Chronically losers with Benning and Green steering whatever mess this is. This franchise used to be a top-class hockey organization, but is now a league-wide laughing stock. -

The fact that Green is no longer answering any questions from Paterson reflects what kind of a coach he is. A true leader/coach does not waiver when the going gets tough. Imagine what his players are thinking when they hear that their coach can't face a little criticism. Green is in over his head at the NHL level and his stubbornness and ego has literally cost us points and a chance at the playoffs. -

Hughes has been awful in this road trip. Maybe he should stop reading his own headlines. -

I don’t expect this to be close thanks to our awful coach. Travis Green hockey consists of playing the same system regardless of the opposition. No in-game adjustments, hardly any controlled zone entries or a player trailing the puck carrier, always dumping and chasing, a hapless two-man forecheck that gets nullified with a simple pass. If I remember correctly, the Miller goal last night happened because Pettersson gained the zone with possession by evading two checks in the neutral zone because he can and he’s that good. But this idiot coach insists Miller, who turns the puck over a lot despite how good he is, does it or just forfeit the puck by dumping it. Like, Green should see that and design breakouts with Pettersson carrying the puck in the neutral zone with speed. Sometimes I wonder if these coaches even watch film or review the game afterwards. Fire this idiot please. Instead of surrendering prime scoring chances against the Jayce Hawryluks and Rudolfs Balcers of the world, Demko will be on an island getting peppered from Matthews, Tavares, Nylander, etc. It’s going to be a loooooong afternoon. -
We have a competitive team when our goalie plays like prime Hasek. Our prospect pool is nothing special relatively speaking as all the other teams have similar prospects. Madden could have been a cost-controlled 2-year ELC which would have been nice because idk if you've seen our cap situation but it isn't looking good. He could have slotted anywhere in the lineup, because, let's face it, we have garbage, overpriced wingers.

Truly one of a kind. Thank you, Henrik and Daniel.
