How does one interview make you feel like this is refreshing? I guarantee that anyone else who comes in and talks about the team would sound refreshing if they are not Benning. That doesn't mean that anything is necessarily happening. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm basing it on many. Just because more people are unhappy that Miller isn't traded yet doesn't mean they know what's happening behind the scenes. I'm happy with the fact that it feels more like business, Bringing in a someone like Jim who has 3 rings under his belt plus the experience is refreshing to me. I have yet to see a move that's been made that I disagree with, minor or not. 1 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DeltaSwede Posted August 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2022 This management group shouldn't be judged by fans impatience. I would much rather them make the right moves rather than the fast moves out of desperation or pressure from media and fans. 1 2 9 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nucker 67 Posted August 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2022 I do like that Allvin is challenging Hughes and Pettersson next season, to come to camp ready and to be in top form from Game 1. Canucks are going to be good next season. Feels like the expectations are higher from management. There's going to be pressure on Boudreau to win games, and I'm sure he'll do a great job getting through to the players, and they'll respond. Excited to see what kind of player Kuzmenko is in the NHL, the speed of Mikheyev, the home-town grit of Lazar. Goaltending should be better too. Martin might get 20+ games, allowing Demko more rest. Dare I say next season they could win the William Jennings trophy for best goalie tandem in the league? 1 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the new regime as well, feeling hopeful for the future although they have not done much in the way of on-ice transformations yet, which I think we sorely need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I for one am giving them until after next year's draft before making any real judgments. What's your judgement timeline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awalk Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Just now, Bure_Pavel said: Trade deadline this year, should be plenty of time to wheel and deal. That's fair. I'll probably have a real good sense of if I like the new group or not by the deadline, but something gut feel is telling me they have been targeting the 2023 draft for big moves since they got here. We'll see but I think in the meantime, it's gonna be a tough middle of the pack year again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would much rather them make the right moves rather than the fast moves out of desperation or pressure from media and fans. GMJB was exciting - I remember he made four big trades over a two day period. His first three trades were good, then 13 out of his next 15 trades were kinda bad (Bieksa for a 2nd was good, and Shinkaruk for Granlund wasn't bad although Granlund was the epitomy of mediocrity). After that his trades were pretty good for the most part but his signings and cap management became abysmal. Regardless, he was certainly not idle handed but he seemed to lack direction. Also he almost avoided developing players like the plague. Our prospects mostly developed in NCAA or Europe and he kept trying to acquire old prospects to jump right into the NHL. Guys that we did develop were let go pretty quick. I think if he just focused on player development instead of knee jerk trades and expensive signings to fill secondary holes he would have been a decent GM.

A half a bag of pucks would have been a good deal for Shrink-rack. Should have traded him asap though when people thought he was going to be a player.
