Fan forum is perfect to find angles/insights you can't find anywhere else. 'journalists' that need to 'source' their ideas from fan forums aren't worth the words they publish - and regardless that has nothing to do with the issue, which is the fact that Eriksson's own comments started the drama - it's all on him and his journalist 'source' - none of this is the fault of Benning or Green, period. The rest is pointless noise imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is that so strange? A young, not so muschled rookie waste his energy on backchecking when he is a monster going forward. strange the only strange thing is you and your posts , again its called hockey hitting and backchecking is part of the game what part don't you understand , give your head a shake , a coach yelling don't back check your gonna get tired ,, nooo don't hit him lol good grief dude just stop posting nonsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the Milan is worse than Loui, and has a way worse contract, but Loui is a bad contract too. I don't want, for the sake of dumping Loui, giving up important assets. Can we dump Loui without bad stuff coming back or losing assets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Loui knew exactly what he was doing when he made those comments. He knows it would make headlines here and get the ball rolling on a fresh start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest is pointless noise imo. Really? Sourcing forums for ideas is common. I have read many posts here that ended up being content on various shows, some posters more than others. A forum sometimes feeds trends of fan attitudes sort of like a big polls only with open thoughts to comment on. Just look at the show 65o just did, trade Virtanen, Julievi and the Canucks #1 for Ghost. That has to come from a controversial forum topic as there is no way that player is worth three 1rst round picks, it is so wrong in so many ways the least of which is the odds that one of the three traded shine or worse all three become regular players that the Canucks could have used down the road. But it got attention even if negative which usually give more ideas for shows than agreeing to everything the team does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe during the regular season and maybe on the PP but when it comes to 5 on 5 or in the playoffs your dead in the water. Unfortunately the Sedins were like this and they were nullified once their team toughness disappeared and they lost that support. Put them on the PP and they were magical, put them in the Playoffs or tight checking 5 on5, not so effective. The league has gotten so competitive though now and if you have any kind of weakness on any of the 4 lines you definitely will be exposed. I like Petey's all round game and it will take him to far more success then just getting a lot points in the regular season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides isn't there going to be a lock out next year? Of course a buyout is a possibility without losing any assets, but throw in a 3rd round pick to get Puljujarvi? Sure why not? Very few of the teams draft picks even see the AHL team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The journalist that quoted Eriksson didn't need to read CDC to get 'ideas' about Eriksson. The entire sidetrack is irrelevent. Can 'journalists' source their ideas - in other words plagiarize the work of posters offering their opinions, ideas, thoughts freely on a forum? Yes, of course they can - but those 'journalists' are weak minded people that probably don't belong in the business if they can't generate their own perspective - and regardless, it's irrelevent to the discussion here, which stems directly from comments straight from the horse's (Eriksson's) mouth. No amount of finessing the importance of fan opiniion is going to change the fact that this is about Eriksson's direct relationship with his coaching and management staff and has nothing to do with fan 'hate" or opinions.

Okay, sorry i didn't read the several pages of posts so i took the comment out of context. Funny though, how many posters tried to find a different meaning to the statement, one that makes the Canucks look good.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah because their shootout abilities, slapshots, bodychecking, forechecking, PKing, footspeed etc abilities were second to none. Not to mention their relentless puck pursuit(oops I mean hooking and tripping abilities) and aggressive play. What was I thinking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
