DeNiro Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 4 minutes ago, Hutton Wink said: Did you even consider where they started? There was a tonne to break down and clean up before starting to get the foundations in place. Have you even taken stock of what's happened in that time? How many NTCs have been forced out? Even taken a peek at the prospect pool at all? Not to mention the revamping of the organization itself. They had pieces to trade that had value. So far the returns on those players are looking pretty bad. Yes I'm well aware of where they started. They've added many pieces in that time, most of which have been underwhelming. Makes you kind of question how they evaluate NHL talent. That will be crucial when our prospects are ready for the big show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petmar74 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Well, I guess we shouldn't spot Tampa a three goal or more lead. Maybe no late penalties in the third either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will make us a weaker team down the stretch. i say move 2 d... . hutton and gud let biega and holme play the rest of the sesaon create roster space so d an upgraded through the draft, joulevi or free agent or trade nilsson won't fetch much . i don't know why we'd even bother vanek should be moved and maybe we can move one other forward...

Mr.DirtyDangles Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Just now, Green Building said: Well, I wouldn't necessarily call Dorsett a smasher, but if we had another guy like him I'd be satisfied. The way you compete with big body teams is by outskilling them, which at the moment we can't do. After all, who were our smashers in 2010-2011? WE had Bieksa for one : ) lappy, Burr, Rome casnt believe iam typing this ...Torres All not huge but willing to smash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concern over whether benning is as good at managing contracts and and vets/trades. Building a team is more than just drafting. Trade Tanev.....trade Gudbranson.....trade the twins.......trade Granny......trade Baertschi......trade Edler.....trade Jake.....trade Hutton......trade MDZ all for draft picks you read the threads.....I read this over and over again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 10-year-old niece has more patience. Frankly, it's embarrassing. Whats embarrassing is Canuck fans that constantly make excuses for poor club management that has assembled an old, slow, and soft team this year. No excuses. Benning assembled this team. He brought in MDZ, Gagner, and Loui E . Why ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're acting like he doesn't have a body of work to be evaluated. The whining is coming mostly from your end. I'm posing a question for discussion, that's kind of what we do here. Getting all worked up doesn't tend to lead to quality conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
