We don't want to become Edmonton right?!!?!! Oh wait... Yeah because Ericsson is a great leader really doesn't talk much but let's his play on the ice speak for itself... Great role model for the young players on how to be a "2 way guy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look like desperate attempts to make the playoffs to me. I like how JB came in first day and clearly stated that this team was going to compete for the playoffs. Yet we have blind fans stating a rebuild started 3 years ago... when JB, the man himself, stated otherwise. It's actually pathetic. Jim Benning: We are going to compete for the playoffs. Brought in Vrbata and Miller to compete for playoffs. Blind Fans: We've been rebuilding since 2014! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a hard job, but someone's gotta do it. Or you might just be extremely pretentious and condescending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya I think benning got a raw deal on this one, Hammer and Lazy Bones did nothing to help Benning make a trade and if anything hampered the process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 It's only a rebuild if you acquire picks. If you acquire 25, 23, 21, 19 year olds, however, it doesn't count. Must do it like.....um, the 'proper' way. Whatever. that. is. Most pathetic, meaningless protests/complaints imaginable. Linden uses the wrong word. It's "rebuild", not transition. Yawn. What a sadass market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acquilini heard the noise and saw what Willie D being announced back next year would torpedo ticket sales... I love how guys like you attack anything that is not pro Canuck.

coastal.view Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 well it is certainly a move. the firing . that can be rationally justified but curious really still whoever is hired is unlikely to have a winning season unless additional experienced players are acquired in the off season and so the new guy will become the new target for unhappy fans next year after the honeymoon phase wanes so i kind of hope the new coach is on a 3 year or shorter contract kinda a placeholder coach i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
