For all of the talk that has been going on, I think alot of people have missed that one important point. At the end of the day, this entire thing is about winning the Stanley Cup. Allvin was 100% correct. Last time I checked there was no banner up in the rafters that says Stanley Cup champion. Until that happens, this is all noise to me.
You may not like JR, Allvin or Tocchet, but at the very least you have to admit that they have actually won the Stanley Cup. Same with Adam Foote and Sergei Gonchar. It's no guarantee that they will bring a cup to Vancouver, but last I checked nobody else has either up until this point, so I am willing to give them a chance and putting all of my feelings aside on everything else. I have listened to the Vancouver media since the Tony Gallagher days, so I am used to all of this stuff, and don't really care what they say anymore.
So well said! And, Allvin was correct when he said that…I don’t understand why so many are getting their knickers in a knot over that comment! Sadly, it’s the same people that b**** & complain that we haven’t won anything. Some just don’t like hearing the facts or the truth it seems…out of sight, out of mind I guess.

Keep bringing the positivity my friend, you’ve got that 1K post milestone coming up
Thanks a lot man!! I appreciate that! I get a little too frustrated / upset sometime and call stuff out, but I try to bring positivity and at least something somewhat decent to the table…a least sometimes. Lol!

I hear ya. It’s an emotional day, and our team is losing. CDC is not at its best.
Appreciate those who bring positivity and open-mindedness, and are willing to have an unpopular take, or stand up for a player whose fallen out of favour for most.
@grandmaster supporting Miller comes to mind
For sure! Appreciate that…..I just think some of it goes too far and maybe a happy medium is in order and at least a semi positive outlook.

It's a dark time for the team and the fans but we'll come out the other side of this. Then we can start complaining about homerism rather than negativity haha!
Lol! For sure!
It’s been a bit of a rough ride for sure, but even during these times, I think some need to be careful how far down the rabbit hole they go. Being at least somewhat positive during hard times, will only help making it to the other side. That and it’s not the healthiest / most constructive thing anyway, if that makes sense.

I appreciate that…..this place is just getting harder & harder to enjoy! Sadly, ignore isn’t covering it all anymore. I just want to point out / stop the toxic negativity by some, but somehow it gets twisted into other stuff…like saying people can’t have an opinion, criticize etc, but that’s 100% not what I’m saying. Some need to see / understand the difference and I wish more would stand against the really bad stuff. That’s all really.

That is still your opinion not a fact.
Also what did they lie about this situation.
Bruce was fired. Tocchet is the coach. The timeline was correct. Where is the lie?
What are the stupid and inacceptable questions? Give me examples.
Media being toxic or not is entirely on you and not them. That is 100% precision. What you think is toxic might be mild to others and vice versa.
It is you trying to for your own cognition onto others here.
Dude…..WAKE THE F UP!!! This is 100% not just my opinion!! Sooo many see it / feel the same way. If you’re that blind / deaf, then I can’t help you! Again, the ignorance on here from some of you is mind blowing. Use some logic, common sense and that thing between your ears.
This is a prime example of why I barely come on here anymore! F’n unreal!!

What you think of media is an opinion not fact. You just don't like it as you think theyball should be cheer leaders for a club and keep their interest above media's own.
That is not how this works in the real world and shouldn't be. If all media behave the way you want, we will not have gotten Chicago's Kyle Beech story. You think that is better, to let Chocago off the hook.
How badly the media here conducts themselves sometimes is a fact! And, no they don’t have to be cheerleaders…but thanks for putting words in my mouth. There’s a difference between keeping them accountable and toxic negativity, lies, and downright stupid / unacceptable questions, but you believe what you want. This is the problem on this site / in society…..the ignorance in this post is ridiculous and you are twisting what I said! I was talking about how they conduct themselves with certain things, more so anytime the press conferences with this team. Today was another example. You tried to take that and tried and paint everything (media wise) with the same brush and that wasn’t what I was saying.
So tired of some of the crap on here!!

That’s a common theme in any sports market..
Never said it wasn’t…..doesn’t make it right or what I said wrong.
Why do some of you have to respond like this?! Was the hand on face emoji needed? Stating a fact that some seem to ignore.

Liked what I heard from Tocchett. Seems like he’s going to take a very reasonable approach to the rest of the season. Understands that long term goals trump wins right now. More about teaching, evaluating and getting to know the players.
I actually didn’t even mind Rutherfords responses. I know everyone wants to crucify him but I thought he was remorseful and owned what happened. A lot of it was just media speculation and intensity driving it.
The one person I was really disappointed with today was Allvin. He’s the most responsible for this mess and he didn’t seem to own up to it too much. Looked disengaged and at times a little intimidated like he had no idea that he was to blame. Did not look like a leader with a confident direction. Seemed like a guy that is putting it on people he hired to fix things.
That’s the thing…..I don’t agree with how they handled Bruce (made me sick), but the media 100% played a role and that’s a common theme with them in this market, but some want to ignore it. They are horrible in so many ways & this press conference is another example…they are just bad at their jobs.

As I'm scrolling through the hate, I'm trying to guess the ages of some. My guess is there are a lot of teenagers and 20-somethings here, judging by the immaturity and angst. It's getting a little silly.
I miss the days when Canucks fans were united and cheered for the team, instead of name-calling and attacking people's character. The fanbase seems divided and I'm not digging it.
I have faith that JR and his team (including Tocchet) will figure this out and make the Canucks competitive again. We'll see. We don't know what the future holds, but some are already expecting failure and misery. Sad.
Go Canucks Go
Love this! Just posted almost the same thing.

At the end of the day, we’ll see how it goes, but I thought Tocchet did well overall and had some good thoughts / answers. I can’t stand the assumptions / pre-judgement from some on here. Give him a chance (and I‘m talking strictly from a coaching perspective). Some on here want to judge / hate just to judge / hate!
Also, I understand being critical / upset about how things have gone re: this team, especially with Bruce. That made me sick!!! It can be frustrating sometimes, I get it…..I’ve been a fan since 88. But, the constant & consistent ignorance, immaturity and toxic negativity from some fans (some on this site) is f’n disgusting!! I won’t mention names, but some of the stuff some people have said, especially the last few days definitely crosses lines.
As frustrating as things have been, I will always root for this team to succeed and hopefully win a cup in my lifetime, which means wanting everyone in this organization to succeed. Rooting for them to fail or tearing them down isn’t the attitude I want to see or portray…and that doesn’t mean I like or agree with everything before someone gets their knickers in a knot.
I’ve seen / heard enough negativity / hate lately…I’m going to choose positivity and as always….
GO CANUCKS GO!!!

Well what’s been said that, at least by me, because I can at least be responsible for my own words, that is over the top or in your own words “too much”?
I can appreciate your desire to be a loyalist to the team, but the team is also anchored to those who run it.
I’m sick and tired of the way it’s being run. Still love the team and the symbol on the front of the sweater and what it represents.
I appreciate that…..and it’s not you directly.
I agree, I don’t like what’s been happening with a lot of stuff either. You’re not wrong!
I don’t want to rehash it, but basically there’s a difference between between being critical of stuff that deserves criticism and constant & consistent toxic negativity about every single little thing, which is what some do on here and what I have (and others have) an issue with. That’s all.

Second to that…..why don’t the handful of you on here that constantly & consistently do this go hang out in a basement together and dwell in your ignorance & toxic negativity! Sounds like a great time!!

Sorry for not being welcoming towards a career criminal who created a toxic environment in Arizona. There's simply no reason anyone should respect a complete dirtbag who can't act with professionalism or integrity, despite how good of a match those flaws make him with the oxygen thief infesting the president's office.
Again, grow the f up and relax!! You wonder why a bunch of us are calling you out. Go outside for some fresh air or something…..there’s way more to life than this.

I appreciate that most people are upset / frustrated and rightfully so, but some stuff on here is getting a little too much!
