  1. EXCUSES!! He HAS been the gm for 8 seasons he was the one that said” we have a window to win” in 2014 Sure put some blame on the guy (linden ) that saw this coming spoke out and got fired. hiring linden unfortunatly was a PR move on the owners part anyway. Ok so that leaves the two roots of the issues JB and FA one can be easily removed one can’t. he’s had his chance to do what he said a “quick turn “ around developing in a “winning environment “ he hasn’t achieved any of him mission statements. He’s “ run out of time” So the players can’t use pathetic excuses for poor performance but the crappy GM keeps getting free passes. times up no more excuses #FIREBENNING
  2. He’s busy scouting draft picks to develop and then throw away for ahl plugs.
  3. So tired of this negativity. so I’ll focus on the positives ….
  4. Is my math wrong? they it’ll take 92 points to get in to the POs we have 12 points 92-12 = 80 so we need 80 more points 67 games left 67 / 80 = .830 lol is that right. We are out of it before mid November.
  5. So good we got rid of the nhl ready prospects going with trusted veterans has really paid off.
  6. So they figure 92 points to get In to the post season does that mean we have to play .800 hockey the rest of the way. lol
  7. Going back to 2014 Craig button has had a similar draft list as Benning he’s not some magical unicorn. he’s made some good picks and some bad ones we’ll be just fine when he’s gone. ( hopefully soon) If his Drafting is the last argument to keep him and it’s not a strong one. Over rated is a better term to describe him as a scout. what’s the point of drafting if your going to keep ahl plugs over your picks anyway.
  8. The fact your key players aren’t buying in means you’ve lost the room so behind the bench is the problem. his points only proves how green needs to be fired. schmidt wanted out after 1 season there’s something to he said for that to. to many excuses from Jb and green and to many things that just haven’t worked times up.
  9. How many GMs did Florida and edm. and Calgary have how are they doing NOW. huh. it’s not hysteria being afraid that a gm would tear down something that isn’t and hasn’t worked isn’t a bad thing. the core will still remain they are young and talented and any new gm would build around that it’s the terrible support coaching that’ll be gone. and the acceptance of being a failure that JB has in his “ winning environment” You worry about long term success when. A guy that’s been here for 8 seasons has yet to generate ANY success. Teams move on Burke put together a team nonis added but was clearly over his head Gillis added to that and we had a great team for years. JBs team JBs coach jb needs to be responsible and a message to fans and players that excuses for failure us no longer accepted. Or wait till 18000 fans are chanting FIRE BENNING because that isn’t embarrassing to an owner.
  10. A new gm won’t make damaging moves to hurt the future to try to save his job. And it is to show that fans that 8 seasons of incompetence and pathetic excuses isn’t acceptable. Asking the players to be accountable but the gm can continue to flounder. he’s had more than enough opportunity times up. no more excuses.
  11. Should be but aren’t. He retained green. he shouldn’t get another free pass for making a costly mistake. he built this team that’s still to small and easy to play against. He let good prospects leave to keep small ineffective ahlers. he’s done some good things but it’s very clear he’s not the guy to build a winner since he’s had 8 years to do it. to many excuses for the ever growing list of failures time it’s to move on. His coach his team his neck.
  12. Yup times up for JB And greens time was up in the summer. Benning small fun to play against teams haven’t and wont worked, his coach green and system are proven trash. times up no more excuses.
  13. He along with FA get/got rid of anyone that isn’t a yes man. gilman linden bracket. He listens as long as you agree with what he says.
  14. No more waiver wire turds. Not until we get rid of the ones we already have ( chiasson doweling highmore hunt) Lockwood is as good as anyone on that list and brings high energy we do not need another tired old recycled vet.
  15. Fair enough but the only coach he should get is shaw as an interm since he was the new addition. getting rid of a bad gm before he mortgages more of the future to save his job is equally important. And you want the players to wake up. Well getting rid of the guy who got them here puts all of them on notice.
  16. Can’t let him sell more of the future to save his job. makes him an even lamer duck. Owners should have had a fresh outlook in the summer now there seeing the recycled failed vision of a someone who can’t see. they should clean house and take their time to find Quality Experienced replacements and show the fans that incompetence won’t be tolerated anymore. interm guys can do just as good as the idiots we have now.
  17. Green is his guy he just resigned him and people want to give him another mulligan. if he picks the right coach…. HE JUST PICKED GREEN as the right guy like so many other things he was wrong. Jb is the root of the problem no point giving him another pass on doing the wrong thing again. I don’t get the passion to keep one of the worst gms we’ve had and the league has seen. So tired of pathetic excuses on his failures. Another coach times up . it was up in the summer his contract saved him.
  18. We’ll after we fire the root of the problem in JB and the coaching staff And a long over due firing of delarome while we’re in the mode then Find some size and toughness to fill out the bottom three and some checking towards that aren’t 3 feet tall and 120 pounds to complete the bottom six and pk. and while we’re at maybe find a 3rd line Center that can win a face off and chip in offensively once in a while.
