Thinking Bo should start calling guys out and himself if necessary... yeah with Podz, Train, and a top 4 D and a 3rd line center if Gauds can't do it and then we'd be set and I can see JB pulling it off easily as all the hard work is already done IF he has the time to do it.. if that all comes to pass I'll text you... leave the volume loud on your notifications so you'll wake up to one of the best Vancouver teams ever... Anything less that? well I'd in line for the booze and sleeping pills too... it's been a painful watch for the last 40 years! At this rate I'll have to buy the liquor store and a pharmacy for the booze and sleeping pills, glutton for punishment I appearantly am.. and I don't even drink but if this keeps up I'll start!

Your close, it's the end alright but the end of the build more like it, you hit on points that are going to change this team in a big way. First our Bulldog Podz is on the way and our top 6 problem is over without breaking the bank, that leaves our needed top 4 Dman, and 3rd line center if Gauds doesn't work out and money will come available for that as next year we have cap $ plus whoever we lose at the ED, then, whoa this team will be super fun to watch! bonus would be Tryamkin back on 3rd pairing, we need that toughness as the playoffs get rough and he can throw most grown men around like ragdolls and won't shy away from a fight.. So you close, the end is... near... patience young Jedi, we'll get there no matter what happens in this season or next, the following year is the one I'm waiting for. Far as I'm concerned, after 41 year watching, what's another 2 as long as we don't fire JB and get some other GM who puts together the same style team we've had with 2 years of exceptions in all that time, "soft" great seasonal teams never win a cup and if that keeps happening here, we never will...

Ok... I'm going to put this whole scenario in terms of reality, yes reality! There is such a thing, trust me, and it's a hard one for people to actually come to terms with is that to expect a finished product results before it's even finished... That's exactly what I see pretty much all of the media and the fans that follow their (for the most part) b u l l s h I t! If it wasn't so f'n whiney lil biotech pathetic it would be funny and although it is in aome ways, but lame as $&!#e overall... Thing about reality, some can't handle it... So if people want to think the re-build is over and THIS is the finished product and it sucks and should be torn down, seriously.. it would just happen all over again or we'd be back to a team that's a soft regular season great team and gets the boot in the first round as it usually happens.. wooohooo! How is that working out so far? 2 more seasons, like it or not.. that's reality no matter who is coaching or gm'g..

yeah it's gotten kind of old hey?
-
what? that sounds like the majority of the last 40 years since I've been watching, that's why we have a great regular season and then get crushed in the first round... year in, year out.. with the odd exception, it's almost always been like this, this is why I was stoked when Tryamkin showed up.. and then willy d got into the act.. and f'd it up and the media got wind of it the rest is history but this is why we miss him..
-
one can hope right? However you really have to laugh at those who seem to think we're going to the cup final or something, when it's simply not going to happen, sometimes I wish we'd have sucked last season in the playoffs so expectations would have remained realistic instead of the stupidity I've been reading from the news and some twits from the CDC..

yeah but the bottom 6 was a lot to do with mentorship as costly as that was, was worth it but it's true value won't be evident for awhile but it will show when we need it the most and we're close to finishing the team is still a few player away from done.. then, and only then will it be applicable to be able to judge, now? not so much unless your a twit..

Has zero to do with criticism, he's a bonehead, took the worst possible penalties exactly the wrong time, after time, after time, after time, after time.. (are you getting this yet) and nothing has changed, I'd have said it before he said a word about any of it. yes I suppose if you don't know $&!# about hockey anything would sound good..

No, Green would be a perfect assistant coach in the NHL until he has more experience but he works well with the kids, which is almost half the team (ish) and JB did his job well getting Green help with mentorship players, although had to be overpaid to come here as most players have to be. Lots of fans here are as smart as a mushroom that's kept in the dark and fed bull_shi_ from the media.. man why are people afraid to actually think for themselves instead?

a BIT more durable? lmao! how many games has Tanev been out of the line-up in the past 7 years compared to Nate? seriously, why not actually look up the answer and post it? Only a fool would have signed him to a long term contract at his age and condition.. no it's not his fault, but it changes nothing..
