Angry Goose Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Please describe a 'good man" .. you believe Gillis was "something other"? .. please define what a 'good man' is to you, since this seems to be more about their character than their abilities? Gillis was dedicated 100% to the Canucks and no matter what his intentions, can you point out one instance when he put himself first?? I suggest no-one on these boards knows anything about who Gillis really is as a person. I agree and like Linden, I think Mike built a lot of solid personal relationships in VAN.

I don't respect a man who stood at a podium and basically told the entire nhl that one of his player's career was over. Malhotra could have lost his opportunity to be an NHL player because of those comments by MG. He's tremendously lucky that Carolina didn't buy into Gillis's comments and gave him another chance. MG had no right to do that to one of the team's heart and soul guys. Sorry, but that's not how you treat the players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THERETOOL Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 So did Aquaman just misuse his words or did Torts just get fired? I think aqua is a stupid man .. I think he just threw mike and torts under the bus but didn't mean to.. I dont believe that he is media savy .. I think he's nervous ,and I think he will regret saying what he did ..

Angry Goose Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Really curious who Linden will pick for GM. Could be unconventional by media standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Aerosex Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 It wasn't the TSN app on my phone or any of my friends that alerted me first to the confirmation that Linden was president…it was my mom, who is so out of touch with everything sports texting me "OMG OMG OMG TREV LINDEN IS THE PRESIDENT OF THE CANUCKS!!!" Makes you realize how many generations of aging puck bunnies collectively squealed at the thought of Vancouver's perfect man being back in the spotlight. My dad would normally be jealous, but he has an even bigger crush on Trevor Linden than my mom... Congrats Trevor! Looking forward to how you do in the new position!

Dogbyte Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Wow, a President that treats his fanbase with decency and respect. Also, Gillis hired Torts as was said all along. People still throwing Torts under the bus for absolutely no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
