I am neither of those and think it is a long time coming. That being said I think the Sedins are a great addition. Professional, hard working smart career hockey guys. Seattle has a female president I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vancouver fans choose not to believe that where there is dmoke there is fire and thats fine too. Of course he/they meddle. I'll never own a team for obvious reasons but if I did I'd meddle too. You don't get rich and buy fancy toys to let them sit. Let the horses out of the barn. I'd probably practice with the team....

Some, like Aquilini, Melnyk, and Dolan are seen as owners who force hockey ops decisions on executives with little reciprocal input prior to decisions being finalized. sorry , we are lucky to have the Aquilinis as owners of the Canucks, they always spend to the max and they care about the players 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Older brother stepping and making sure there are advisors in place to make sure everything is being run smoothly and on course. I take this as more of a lead for Francesco from the family. Imac interviewed today on 650 and said this was ALL Jim Benning's doing. He's the one who's been leading the charge on bringing them on board...having the conversations with them, etc. 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spend to the cap. I dont think they care for the players more or less than any other owner does and thats an unprovable claim anyway. They also cheap out on the front office a lot in the Benning era and force decisions on the hockey people, both which unnecessarily hurt results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the Sedins around can only bring good things. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumb Nuck Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 I have some reservations as I feel we need to build a much tougher team to have any success especially in the playoffs, having said that I wish them nothing but success because they are 2 class act individuals and in the end we all want the same thing, a Cup. Cheers 22 & 33. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
