[Discussion] How good should the 2021-22 Canucks be?
combover replied to BigTramFan's topic in Canucks Talk
Jb had his chance to do that every year for the past 8 years he didnt. we need to get a manger that actually has a clue and a coach. Jim’s a terrible manger a proven failure and has had every chance to fix HIS mess this team goes nowhere with him here as proven by the last 8 seasons. Capped out crap teams that are easy to play against. only thing jim should be allowed to do is pack his crap and leave the building. #FIREBENNING -
[Discussion] How good should the 2021-22 Canucks be?
combover replied to BigTramFan's topic in Canucks Talk
Get rid of the excuse making failures. (JB green) Team would be hard pressed to be any worse than what we’ve seen over the last 8 years. team could do well and be in the play off conversation well past November which would be an improvement over JBs teams. But the new GM will have his work cut out bad contracts cap straped and not really and tradable depth won’t make things easy. you’d think after 8 seasons of stinking you’d have be able to trade from a position of strength but not JBs teams our depth comprises of other teams thrown away AHLers. -
Canucks record on drafting and developing talent
combover replied to fanfor42's topic in Canucks Talk
Drafting is status quo just look at final mock drafts and you’d see JB isn’t anything special. development is worse than terrible asset management like inserting young developing players into the league and giving them a real shot has been non existent. A rebuilding team going with other teams ahl throw aways young drafted players with upside. And you say we’re still 2 years away huh. there is no logical reason for Jim Benning to still be employed other than he’s got a year and half left on his contract. -
[PGT] Chicago Blackhawks at Vancouver Canucks | Nov. 21, 2021
combover replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
They didn’t want to fire him last summer because he has two years left. i remember hearing fried say that was one of the reasons in a uncertain covid market and that they learned it from paying Gillis for 5 years after he was yet go. they didn’t buy out Louie they traded him and a bunch of other mistakes they bought out holtby and JV FA is desperate for a win now team he’s wanted since the day JB was hired. It’s the same reason he hasn’t been fired yet There is logical explication to leave a guy that’s been as bad as JB in that position. no GM in the nhl Survives being this horrible. unless he’s a pet a puppet and a yes man three of the main things FA looks for in executives. notice not once has JB disagreed with the owners or stated something that contradicts them. gillis did linden did Going back to when Burke did it’s because JB is yes man pet that’s why he’s employed still. #firebenning#firegreen#selltheteam -

Except here the excuses have been acceptable and start at management. #FIREBENNING #FIREGREEN#SELLTHETEAM -

combover replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
FA he’s hired rookie gms since he had control because he wants to be the gm without being the gm. Burke was the last GM with a solid resume this club had. puppets and pets are what FA wants self respecting professionals won’t work in this environment. hence why we still have JB who’s been terrible. FA - win now Gillis its time to rebuild - FA your fired linden it’s time to rebuild -FA your fired Benning yes sir right away sir 8 years of failing FA -good boy your not fired #FIREBENNING #FIREGREEN #SELLTHETEAM -

Hamonic had our two shots until like the 5 minute mark. Lol if that’s “we played well” “we win that 8 or 9 time out ten” I think the problem is obvious the totally oblivious Coach . #FIREBENNING #FIREGREEN -

If this season bombs, do you support a rebuild ?
combover replied to MaxVerstappen33's topic in Canucks Talk
This season is already f’d I support firing the person who assemble the team and the inept coach then Go from there with hopefully a GM that has a plan and knows how to build a team. hopefully get some size and toughness in the bottom six and a coach that can coach to the players strengths and isn’t afraid to play the prospects over ahl plug ufas. So a yes to management/coaching rebuild. #firebenning#Firegreen -

[PGT] Winnipeg Jets at Vancouver Canucks | Nov. 19, 2021
combover replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Happy for the win wpj played the night before we played their back up we got the “ lucky” bounces demko still had to face 37 shots the refs didn’t call a single penalty against us and the could have easily called at least 3. the Jets are terrible pkers too. we took advantage of those things which is a positive. Step in the right direction but we need to win a few in a row. Reminds of when we beat Dallas then Tanked for 5. Demko could be this teams best draft pick under Benning. He’d be in vezina conversations if he played for a average to good team. #firebenning #FIREGREEN -
Rain drops keep falling on my head but that doesn’t mean my eyes will soon be turning red cryings not for me ….. and the longest line -nofx fitting for the Canuck fans.

https://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/canucks-by-the-numbers-club-in-a-funk-well-that-figures There is absolutely no LOGICAL reason to keep JB or Green. Really hoping for some loud “ upsetting” chants see if green and Benning can “block out the noise “ 6-2 wpj Nuck can’t win as proven by the numbers with these two idi it’s in charge #firebenning #firegreen

https://theprovince.com/sports/hockey/nhl/vancouver-canucks/canucks-by-the-numbers-club-in-a-funk-well-that-figures There is absolutely no LOGICAL reason to keep JB or Green.it’s not a “ narrative “ it’s the numbers and they don’t lie. . Any self respecting coach manger or professional at any level would should be mortified by having a performance report like this. 13 wins since last Feb And historic failures #firebenning #firegreen

There is another with fire Benning.

Some videos have surfaced of fans walking out in the lobbies chant fire Benning sell the team. Security was confiscating any anti Benning signs. It’s a joke. Really I find it hard not ti just laugh at Jim FA and green it’s such a train wreck you can’t not watch. Lol

Ships already down. now it’s time for the recovery team. as long as he doesn’t throw away more picks,the young core or what’s left of our prospects for more recycled trash ahlers. but if you own a business do you really want to be on every sports channel and news with fans chanting - sell the team fire the gm pretty embarrassing the brothers will not be happy with FA
