AK_19 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I mean our PK is historically bad, they may as well not even have a coach for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIXED.. this team just plays like it hates to score.. they play like pylons and are afraid to shoot the puck The change up that caused us to score like when Miller was put in Pettersson spot worked great but then they reverted back to that stale setup that we have had since Petterson joined the team. I mean cmon, why do they like to go back to the old setup that doesnt work. The PP coach is blind Edited November 12, 2021 by DefCon1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even you could Please enlight me on what areas the ”team” with the Canucks couldn’t do the same with or without Benning. The scouts scouts the same players.

joe-max Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 What now? Do we fire the coach, the GM or the owner? Do we tear it down, rebuild, retool or is the team good enough already to win the cup? I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we tear it down, rebuild, retool or is the team good enough already to win the cup? I'm confused. Lol. Exactly. There has never been a clear vision from this group. They have bounced from one idea to the next. We want to be this team, no we want to be this team. Now they just seem they are right back at being stuck in the middle. Which is where Benning started, being a mediocre team. There are pieces but obviously so many holes that can’t be easily fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contract negotiations, cap management, waiver eligibility, personnel management, PR, IR management, etc. There's a reason why even somebody like Brian Burke says it's an extremely stressful job. It's easy enough to assume it's just like the video games but there's a lot that goes into it. Half the people on this site aren't even aware how a two way contract works and who gets it and what it even means. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Meanwhile, over at HFBoards: I know it’s a much more critical group over there, but 98.6% calling for Benning’s immediate firing is higher than I ever expected to see, even for HFBoards. Wonder how a similar CDC poll would look right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning has experts in every area so the GM bit is more to handle people all around and Benning has his flaws there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
