I'm referencing everything. I'm just tired of people's intelligence being in question because they don't agree with management. "You just don't get it" for example. 

Management is out to lunch with their retool philosophy.  They are split between rebuild and compete now.  We should tank and tank hard for as long as it takes to get elite skill to build around.

I don't think we need to tank, we just need to keep and maybe even acquire some draft picks.

That would be an added bonus but you're not getting generational talent this draft. 

So the experts say.  Remember those are the same experts who predicted a 65 point season this year for us.  We are on pace for 68, no?  <_<

Sadly yes, but luckily only 4 points out of the Wildcard.

Does it mean everyone else cant understand the reasoning? Maybe some people don't agree with the reasoning. Their plan isn't written in some kinda Templar code that only the elite hockey minds can unlock. Teams have been built like this since the 60's. Some people just do not accept the reasoning believe it or not. 

The real question here is what do you know about Templar codes.... are you enlightened LaBamba!?!?

Worst? That's stupid.

Still not too bummed we traded McCann, more bummed that we passed on drafting Pastrnak...

 

15 goals now and a point per game player. He was there for the grabbing.

At least be thankful the Oilers or Flames didn't take him.

At least Nedved played.

 

That same draft we passed on Brodeur and Tkachuk in order to take Shawn Antoski...

 

Looking at the Canucks drafting record really is painful.

No matter who does our drafting there are epic misses

seens like the non- Benning Boston scouts have been pretty awesome - lucic, Bergeron, krecji, Marchand, seguin, Kessel, Hamilton, pastranak, versteeg

That is an all star team right there

 

compare that too our recent run 

 

sedins, Horvat, Schneider, Edler, kesler, Hansen, 

good, but no where near the Boston caliber.

 

boston has had some real stinker drafts just feels like the Canucks pick the wrong guy like 80% of the time.

what gets me is this:

benning talks about character in what he looks for in a player at the draft- virtanen and McCann both had attitude problems in junior. That is the reason why McCann dropped in the first place- he ruffled a lot of feathers in the team canada office with they way he went about asking team canada for more playing time at the hlinka tournament or the u18s or whatever
