Coconuts Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Just now, HKSR said: Yeah, and the whole talk of 'country club' culture is also in the mix. There's something seriously broken in that room. I do think it goes beyond the media just trying to stir things up, there has been ongoing speculation regarding the state of the room for a while now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the room is unfriendly right now it’s because they’re pissed about how their season is going, and tired of the media constantly stirring the pot. Just because Bo and Schenn fake a smile for the media doesn’t mean they don’t feel the same way. Edited December 13, 2022 by DeNiro 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most other cities aren't that much different, it's just that Vancouver is a smaller city with less sports teams to be fans of than say, Seattle, Toronto, New York and the like. It takes all types to be fans, but the advent of the internet, and especially social media, having given misery so many more avenues to amble down. Players can choose to tune it out or move to a team and a city where the sport matters less. Plenty of people, most actually, have no idea what the rigors are of the average athlete, but then again most don't make the ridiculous amount of money most athletes do either. You have to have a pretty thick skin to be a public figure. They’re right though. Some very fickle fans in this forum just waiting for someone to falter so they can take years of frustration with this club and project/focus it all centrally, and it’s rarely justified. have to wonder if 20% of this fanbase/forum could ever be satisfied. I know I’m not with the way things have been run. I’m fact, I’m actually unimpressed with this mgmt group and the way issues and drama have lingered on for so long like a really bad protein fart. Just waiting for them to clear the room and establish fresh oxygen. Edited December 13, 2022 by RWJC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just not sure what it is though. All one has to do is look on the ice as see that the team is f**ked. Lalji throws every single other player, outside of Schenn and Horvat, under the bus, calling them toxic, but doesn't provide any evidence to back it up. This has always been Lalji's way to do things.

There's seemingly been a cloud hanging over the Canucks organization since last season. There's definitely smoke, who's to say there's not fire? There’s definitely fire. Unfortunately it’s not originating out of performance but failure. That creates divides. If this team was all in cahoots, safe to say the record and accomplishments would measure quite differently Edited December 13, 2022 by RWJC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Management chose the way they wanted to move forward last offseason, and it looks like a own goal. In saying that moves has to be made to change this team, and the one player outside EP, that really can bring something back, is Bo with the season he is having (and maybe Kuz). This team is drifting around, and changes has to be made. Management is lining up serious changes to this team... Part of me will be sad to see Horvat leave, but part of me is also looking forward to see this team change, for better or worse... at the position we are drifting around, we won't win anything... Changes are coming... And here's Allvin with his first touch this season Oh my .... Edited December 13, 2022 by Gawdzukes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHL97OneTimer Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 6 hours ago, Canucks Curse said: there is not a seriously good package right now. We will not et a seriously good package for bo - think late first, A- prospect, 3rd line winger, we would be lucky to get a 3C. And you know this because...... They obviously get nothing for him after the TDL and it's risky to wait until just before the TDL. Fine to wait it out a bit at this point but as we're well into January, time is ticking and luck is usually not on our side. For the record, I'm okay if we can re-sign Bo for a reasonable contract......especially if they can trade Miller before the TDL. But losing both and rebuilding is unfortunately needed at this point if we care about a cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many ”what have you done for me lately” crowd. Once a player here struggles, doesn’t matter what they did last year, they become utter garbage. Truly is pathetic. Fans just want to see effort. If a player is struggling or the team is losing games, as long as the effort is there then fans are forgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
