  1. Lol. I don't hate the Leafs, last thing they did that I didn't like was a questionable hit by Kadri on Sedin. I hate the east coast media that covers hockey (except Bieksa).
  2. I haven't seen a ton of Dumba but I've never been overly impressed. Though let's be fair, players have their ups and downs. It's easy to love Boeser right now, just as it was easy to imagine trading him for a good defensemen when he was cold/injured.
  3. Toronto is more hated by most Canuck fans than any of the teams in our actual division. More hated than even Boston by some people.
  4. Canucks worst team in hockey in February. Their best player gets injured, so they go on to beat the best team in back to back games. Welcome to sports.
  5. That year Boeser needs to get resigned. And the year after 2022 Miller and Horvat need to get resigned. We have a one year window of cap flexibility. We should have it now, but we have the most useless expensive 4th liners and taxi squad around. And Benning blames the flst cap and covid, as if it only exists for Vancouver. 7 years of ineptitude.
  6. What the hell you talking about!?!? Linden wanted the long term rebuild and got fired for it. Benning's been taking short cuts from the start. Age gap experiment. Trading picks away to go for the playoffs every year. Give me a break.
  7. As long as he's a lapdog for Aquaman he'll stay on.
  8. CDC. Blaming refs and Toronto media for all of Canucks problems since the invention of the internet.
  9. I think Roussel, Beagle, Myers, Gudbranson, Vey, Sutter, Eriksson, not trading for draft picks when "rebuilding", starting the "rebuild" years too late, losing upcoming free agents for nothing, not finding a winger for Horvat for years and having a trash defense every year will cost Benning his job, not the coach.
  10. He has a trash lineup, can only squeeze so much blood from a stone. People crapped on our former coaches and assistant coaches too, they've gone on to win Stanley Cups and coach of the year awards when given quality teams to work with.
  11. I don't see why people are ripping Holtby. He's been average at best for a while now, so what are you expecting when he goes from a cup contending team to this dumpster fire.
  12. Management getting ripped apart on 650. I thought that was a 1040 thing. Talking about the 10 year "no plan" plan .
  13. Yeah, but had to have someone that could start in case Demko wasn't starter quality.
  14. Yeah I always had it on in the background and post game. 650 is boring and that Bruins fan Walker says dumb things just to be controversial.
  15. Yes, the "bad contracts" will be replaced by "good contracts." All that means is that the money paid to our bottom 6 and dead cap, will instead be paid to our stars. My point is that it won't leave much money for depth. The advantageous period of entry level deals for our best players is over. Managing the cap can be done, teams do it. Perhaps Benning can do that. I haven't seen him show any ability to manage the cap. Good players left because of our bad contracts and our two biggest stars aren't even getting paid yet. I guess time will tell. Here's goals allowed the last 4 seasons combined. One of these teams can play defense, and these stats are from a couple of seasons of prime Markstrom. The Canucks could make big moves and turn into the Avalanche sure.. But it's a wild take, that the Canucks are more like the Avs than the Oilers right now.
  16. How much of that money is getting used to resign Hughes & Pettersson? Not much money left over to replace the players that are leaving. And those players need to be better than the ones leaving for this team to improve.
  17. Yeah because we haven't paid our stars yet.
  18. Benning's Canucks are starting to look like Chiarelli's Oilers - Vancouver Is Awesome https://www.vancouverisawesome.com/canucks-hockey/bennings-canucks-are-starting-to-look-like-chiarellis-oilers-3463476
