I really and truely beileved in what Benning was doing here. He obviously made some glaring mistakes throughout his tenure, but I always like the direction. It is really difficult to see this team struggle this badly. I look forward to the next chapter of Canucks hockey. I agree to a certain extent. But in the end he wasn't building a team. It was more of a collection of individuals. And he was always plugging holes in the dyke. Instead of doing the long term fixes. 1 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ilduce39 Posted December 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2021 But seriously, JB has run his course. Time for someone to come in and apply some polish. Leaves behind a mess on the blue line, but a ton of talent up front and in net that can hopefully be leveraged into a more balanced lineup as we move forward. Still think history will be kinder to JB than his detractors were the past 8 years but as with everything I guess we’ll see. 1 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueRoyal Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 One thing's for sure: the players need to figure it out. Aquaman cleaned house, it's on them now. If there are still issues then some of them will be the next to go. I like the group we have so I sincerely hope the toxicity and whatever has ailed that lockerroom came down to the off ice staff. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coaching staff and the lack of experience around him were the problem. To only place the blame on Benning is laughable He left a very good core, something he didn't have at all. He had an uphill battle from day 1. Wish him all the best and pray the new gm keeps this young core. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AV. Posted December 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 6, 2021 Memes aside, I do appreciate the effort put in. The product was horrendous, but it wasn't for a lack of trying, nor was it to apathy. I think a role back in scouting somewhere would be best for Mr. Benning. 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was even a point a few years ago where I considered myself a supporter, but years of cap mismanagement, expensive bandaid fixes and not building a proper defence caught up with him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
