  1. I'd be surprised if he gets another NHL job.

    The TSN panel however, is creaming themselves with the prospect of having Torts back. Could you imagine that guy slamming us on a nightly basis? (Don't tell me he's a professional, because if anything this season has proved he's not).

    He's not a "professional" in the terms where he won't sit back and let other people go after his team or slander him without responding. Of course, having a backbone in today's sensitive NHL gets you fined, suspended, and eventually fired.

    I trust Linden's decision, but there's no reason Torts shouldn't have been given at least half a season more with the Canucks.

  2. Yes and it's his fault. GMMG said he wanted to get younger. What does Torts do?

    - Doesn't even give Shinkaruk and Horvat 9 games. Not saying keep them for sure, but at least give them a shot.

    - Plays the "old players" 20-28 minutes per game, right from the get go.

    - Plays Kassian < 12 minutes per game until the season was virtually over.

    - Doesn't give Jensen a shot until the season is virtually over (even though he didn't deserve it really).

    - Sent Corrado down for basically the whole season.

    D'uh!

    GMMG was the one who pulled the strings for that. You're fooling yourself if you think otherwise. Continue the hate circlejerk, though - it totally hasn't gotten old despite the continued false information.

  3. Again: The last two times in the last decade they missed the playoffs, they bounced back the next season and won the division. This was when Calgary and Edmonton weren't pushovers, and were just as good as the California teams are today.

    The amount of hyperbole in this fanbase makes me sick.

  4. Must win game and you start Markstrom? Uhm, no.

    Because Lack's played so well since Luongo was traded, right? Besides, I'd rather the team miss the playoffs and have a chance in the lottery than get swept in the first round and have nothing to show for it outside of excuses like "well, we made the playoffs, it's a process" from the management.

  5. seriously? the Sedins are cancerous?

    you want to build the team on a bunch of 20 years old and let go of two form 100 points players?

    holy jesus dude, wtf are you smoking?

    NOTHING but the term core I said applies to the Sedins. I said the core refuses to work with anyone, which is the opposite of the Sedins. I assumed that would have been clear enough reading my post, but clearly not.

    I'm talking Kesler, Elder, Booth, Burrows, etc.
