nickels Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Curious what it would take to bring Dale Tallon to Vcr to be our next GM. Seems we're at the perfect stage in rebuild to bring in someone who has brought both the Hawks and Panthers out from similar situations. How many more absolutely inexcusable, bonehead moves does Benning have to make before his "apologists" realize that he is completely unqualified as a GM. . Keep him on as a scout maybe, but he should never be allowed to make another trade or sign a player to another contract, His record in these 2 areas is atrocious.....and he is close to making our franchise the laughing stock of the league.(if he hasn't already.

Barry_Wilkins Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Dale Tallon still hasn't forgiven the Canucks for trying to make him a forward. I'm sure he's checking the Canucks' nosedive in the standings right now, then checking the quality of youth on his own team while sitting atop his division, then laughing into his mai tai on the sunny back deck. If Aqullini were to phone him in the next year or two, he'd laugh even louder into our owner's earhole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Torts Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Dude, we're rebuilding. You wouldn't be crying when we have fully developed Horvat baertchi Demko Boeser Mcann Pulljaarvi? Tryamkin Pedan etc on our team. Take a breather, I like benning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Boudreau Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 It's stuff like this which is why people say Van fans are fickle and only Canadian city besides those crazy frenchies in Montreal who would not stand for a real rebuild from the core to the supporting players.

Bruce Boudreau Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Tallon likes golfing in warm Florida instead of rainy every third day Vancouver. Rebuild takes time and patience look at Toronto and Calgary and Edmonton. This stuff takes time you gotta have a 5 year plan and be prepared to stick to it. This was year 1. Judge the Canucks in 4 years when they should be back to being a regular playoff team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being forced to trade Kelser to one team and ending up in the end with Sbisa, Sutter and McCann - OH MY gawd he got raaaped!!!! what a awful deal Sbisa's a disaster. Sutter's a3rd line plug, who he grossly overpaid for. McCann...we'll see 6.

Sell me a rebuild and I'll buy it This year they sold me a "100 point team" and I got a rebuild. But It's my fault for saying that this regime isn't doing a good job. Which to me is fine, I got what I wanted, a rebuild, but that isn't what I was sold. Their intentions weren't to rebuild they just messed things up so badly we stumbled into a rebuild.

Sean Monahan Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Just now, desiboynux4lifee******* said: u forgot the big trade deadline blunder this year. Not trading vrbata? He tried, nobody wanted him. not trading hammer? One team was in play and they ultimately choose another player. Benning and linden weren't going to take a lowball offer and I don't blame them at all, I'm happy they didn't. Why would you uproot a guy who's given his heart and soul to the team and force him to leave his pregnant and expecting wife for a mid round pick? Not worth it. also, most of this mess is on gillis. Benning is facing a very unique situation in that he's got to compensate for and overcome s length stretch of bad drafting which has left him with just about no prime-aged players, greener than green rookies, and an over the hill core. It's lipstick on a pig st this point. fans have been screaming for a "tank" or whatever you'd like to call it, well here it is. Stop your bitching.

bobbyg43 Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 There should be a thousand post minimum requirement before being allowed to post a thread. JB is just in year two and is getting a passing grade.Wait and see after year three is concluded before jumping the gun here. As for Dale Tallon leaving Florida for The northwest shake your head again , he is living the dream in Florida. ease up an give him alittle bit of slack at least until draft an free agency an see what he can do here.
