[PGT] Colorado Avalanche at Vancouver Canucks | Nov. 17, 2021
combover replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Good thing we’re only “ two years away” from being competitive. Lol why jim has a job is baffling. -
Agreed but it’s a direct result of the guy steering the ship. pretty simple solution and inevitability of having a job like nhl GM. on a side note I live in Vancouver island and people are going crazy buying fuel and groceries. It’s reported that we have no supply chain. Ever gas station have huge line ups. is that happen in Vancouver too?

so being grateful to have a team means we should all accept mediocrity. The fact people are so upset shows how much this team means. I’d be far more concerned if people didn’t post here didn’t hire planes with banners ect. just be like a US market averaging 5000 fans. You think fans in WPJ would tolerate 8 years of crap Jb has done here and still support the team without question. I don’t. The love affair with a below average GM is just baffling. Why are the players held to a hired standard jim has failed at every level and excuses are accepted he set the bar for the entire team. the team plays just like he manages hit and miss filled with excuses and short comings. it’s defiantly his team.

So I use to be emotionally attached to this team it bothered me when we lost it angered me when calls went the wrong way. But slowly over the JB era my attachment has faded now all the predictable events from the last 5 years are humorous. I watch every game I still want to win but I just laugh at the GM and coach and the endless fails and hilarious excuses. the team Jb built is a league wide joke and it’s been that way for a long time. “ fun to play against”. Jb hasn’t damaged the brand he’s destroyed it. he has completed his mission. Jb has made it extremely easy for the media he like his team is a joke and the fans that still get upset when reporting failure after failure are the punchline.

Did the oilers celebrate winning streaks with 10 games left that ruined their chances at getting first over all’s. i know it was pre lottery but they traded vets added picks and made sure they got first. Jb so worried that he was making a playoff push when we weren’t a playoff team let veterans leave for free was excited to see winning streaks that ruined our draft position so we took a different route to and they want us to celebrate and support mediocrity. no thanks. -
i Love the conviction and dedication regardless of if we agree. sometimes some tough love is needed in order to rectify a situation. This is one of those times. i want Vancouver to Win I want them to win every game I want them to win at everything I want them to win the super bowl that’s why I can’t stand JB and what he’s done he’s a proven loser and it’s time for some tough love to save the team I love. have fun at the game and stay safe!!!

So a sh-t show. sounds about right for JB.

Is owners aren’t worried about the GM and the coaches then why should fans. FA knows what’s coming it’s been brewing for over a year. last year with no fans the only reason it didn’t happen then. Green and Benning both know it. I’d love to Hear Fire aquallini too. He had the power to save himself and the franchise the embarrassment by firing the GM and coach . He has chosen the cowards route and sends his guys the linch mob. then he’ll do what should have been done last summer - clean house. the brand is damaged with JB here pointless PR moves won’t save face this time. #FIRBENNING #FIREGREEN #FIREAQUALLINI Times up No more excuses

You said Benning an plan . lolololololololololol. good one I needed that. it’s like saying green and system lolololololo. -
It’s not desperate at all it’s very well deserved and long over due. his coach 100% his team hes has failed to deliver on almost every hes said since arriving here If Resigning Green wasn’t the final nail in jbs coffin letting developed young prospects go for free in favour of absolutely terrible AHLers that have done nothing should be. I just don’t get why there’s such a love affair with a guy that’s been a total disaster since day one. please Don’t say drafting - Craig buttons draft list since 2014 has been every bit as good as JBs picks some better some worse. JBs is so over rated here and for no good reason. 8 years of garbage is plenty long enough.
-
The gm just resigned this coach. JB has had every opportunity he deserves the lions share of “attacks” this is 100% his team from coaches to players to thrown away prospects. Why leave this refool in charge to further damage the brand and the future.

Sounds like this three game home stand and the fans will determine Jb/ greens fate.like more proof of incompetence is actually needed.lol. both are flat out terrible at there jobs. 5 years of greens trash 8 years of Jb pathetic excuses for failing. yeah a three game home stand should be the difference….. looks like owners want fans opinion live on TV I hope those at the game give the. What they want. Looking forward to here.chants of FIRE Benning It’s Long over due. To bad coward owners won’t just make the move with out embarrassing the GM and coach. isn’t a story or report that sees either green or Jb surviving this disaster. if fans at the game really want to deliver a message FIRE AQUALLINI should be the chant,

Babcock or Green. Who would you rather see coach the Canucks.
