  1. He's generally pretty honest,but it's pretty slow out there...may as well speculate a little..,!
  2. No chance......Ladd is good...but Horvats got a good 15 year career.
  3. You obviously wouldn't base anything on 2014 when you have your coach,best player and slew of your regular guys out of the lineup..no NHL team would be rolling along with that adversity...I do agree with your other points though...
  4. Gillis has take good care of his players,almost to a fault..He has lured free agents to Van as a good place to play and a solid organization Having a new guy come in,ask guys to waive their NTC (blaming Gillis)would do nothing but raise red flags for potential free agents..The Canucks as an organization would completely lose their credibility.
  5. All of your hindsight would come in quite handy if you ever decide to be GM
  6. I'd say the chances of that next GM trying to lure free agents here would be close to zero.
  7. That's cute..You hang on to the black and footage of winning the SC..back when you had a 1 in 6 chance if winning it..How old we're you in 67..? Leafs haven't even been to the finals in almost 50 years..not even close.
  8. Really Jack.....?...So you're not going to give me any sources/ proof that MG is disrespected around the league....?..bit of a backtrack.?!...You are going to give me stats now (you're switching the goalposts a bit here)...you don't need anything else...?...Now we are rehashing the Cody bit ( he didn't want to be here)....And same ole etc...Jack Fig..a bit more Jack A$$..
  9. Gillis is a tough mutha...he took on Alan Eagleson head to head and won...He doesn't 'need' this job as GM/President...so I doubt that Aqualini pushed him in to to it....Although,I must admit ,I was completely shocked that Torts was hired as Canucks coach.
  10. That's ok ..When we get healthy we will clobber you again and maybe let you win another one in 2025
  11. The discussion wasn't about the goalie situation....anyway,we got Bo Horvat,.
  12. I kind of feel that way about the GM...He is partially is to blame for this mess....conversely,he's probably a guy I would pick to get us out of it.
  13. In a nutshell..this is it...I think we have a good GM and coach (I must be in the minority now).. Firing everybody right now would accomplish nothing but mayhem..we should wait till the end of the season to analyze what they have or haven't done.
  14. Me too.....when I first get the NHL schedule I always look forward to the away games in Montreal and Toronto....big letdown..Im really torn now whether I want our key players to redeem themselves and become first round fodder....or just keep stinking up the joint and get a top 10 pick.
  15. The Leafs finally beat us...right now,I think anybody could beat us...Canucks should thank their lucky stars that there is this break...I think they will be at least competitive when we are healthy...
  16. I did ..he won the GM of the year..voted by the other GMs'..he's obvoiously respected for what he does..your going on pure speculation/gossip/fantasy/hate..etc
  17. Gillis won GM of the year a few years back..which is primarily voted by the other GMs around the league..does not sound like an unpopular GM to me.
  18. You 'think'.....but you don't have any credible source to back it up...
  19. I think the Canucks will give their utmost this game..I'm hoping it will be enough..It would be nice to extend our unbeaten streak against them to a good dozen years
  20. Killed the franchise...?..after all those years at or near the top,your pretty quick to jump off the bandwagon aren't you?
  21. Since the beginning of this season,with the new CBA..how many legit top 6 forwards have been traded.?.or more to the point..How many significant trades have been made by any team this season..?..if you want to hate..at least be objective about it..because it clearly sounds like youre grasping.
  22. That's a distinct possibility..we've owned them for years..We will be in tough this time around..
  23. Could you imagine what our season would be like 'without' this Olympic break...Hopefully,it will be like a new season
