Can’t stand these phonies like Friedman that act like they care about the player, but really only care about their breaking stories.

 

Like yea, you feel bad for him? Yet you decide to leak the story about him seeking a trade the same night as hockey fights cancer? knowing full well it’s gonna be an emotional night for him?

 

Cut the heartfelt crap and admit what you really care about.

Yep.

 

Brock didn’t appreciate being hounded by reporters about trade rumours on a night that clearly meant a lot to him. Completely stole the spotlight away from what should have been about his dad. 

Agreed. These types love to get the traffic going their way. Don’t care about the effects that it may have on others.

It is newsworthy that Boeser was scratched by Boudreau on a night like this.  Coach had no idea tonight was HFC and Joshua's injury made it simple to ice Boeser.  The agent didn't help things.  This is the beginning of the end.

 

Asking him about it would be fair game on any other night (but definitely not tonight), and he is going to have to address it next week.

There are no moves to be made to improve this team right now otherwise they would have happened.

 

Just try and enjoy the wins when we get them. Who knows when it’s the last time we see this group together.

Totally.    Trade Horvat, don't trade Horvat... Brock scoring a goal the first time in his career he's been a healthy scratch, on a date he circled on the schedule for his Dad Duke, then getting the call to play (Bruce is cold man - that's some tough love - not that some of these guys couldn't use some of that) and watching them celebrate for him was pretty cool.   And the warm-up honouring his Dad.      I agree with this.   Until there is a move that makes sense for the future - this is the team we've got.   Might as well just enjoy EP... QHs and Horvats goal scoring.   And things like this.  

 

Edit:  For all of flak Brocks got, deserved or otherwise,  if he has a typical Brock season (career average) he should sneak into the top 25 in all-time scoring passing Mogilny, Lumme and Kearns this year (if he's not traded).   If he finishes his contract with us pass Burrows.

Those are some Canuck legends right there... the fact he could pass Lumme before the New Year and probably Edler this year is something.    By the time his deals up, QHs will own all the assist and point records for us.   And that beard he's been trying to grow since his rookie season is starting to look pretty good lol.   His shot might not go in, but man he's good at setting up rebounds and tip ins.

Oh I’m fully prepared for it. Do I agree with it? no, but they already picked their guy 

Spot on amigo.... they made their bed.

For better or worse. Only positive is, the way he is playing, he should bring a decent haul at TDL... Especially with $ retained...

 

Don't want to see him go, but this team needs a serious clear out. 

 

If we wanna go places, we shouldn't be celebrating the joy of beating at team of craps in OT...

ATM we are heading for a 10-16 draft pick again... what the point in this?

 

Time to do something drastic....

I had my gripes with the Benning crew but what I’ve seen from JR and crew is disappointing so far.  Bruce is a good man and no matter what happens I’ll always view him in a positive light. They threw him under the bus, and it was no fair. Last year of a contract and he gets criticized by the president  via the media early on . Keep that shit behind closed doors.  Not only that, how do the players read the situation when the they hear the president trashing the coach via the media.  Just amateur crap. 

Again, Benning threw young prospects under the bus and you complain about an old coach getting some needed advice?!?

 

Here fans throw management under the bus for the decision to not play Boeser this special night when BB clearly say he is the reason.

 

What is going on here?

Who is orchestering this storm of negativity against management and why?

It's Friedman's job to report what's going on in the league.

 

It's not his fault reporters post game brought it up to Boeser knowing he was going to give a "no comment" answer

If we tear down a bit there's no point in keeping Miller and Horvat probably walks anyway not wanting to stick around. 

Unless by some miracle we are a top team in this conference the final 40 games of the season like last year - we simply can't take the risk of Horvat walking.      Even then unless we can fix our defense,  at least one solid top four D like Quin managed with Brown (Hedican too but he was still green at the time), don't see any other choice but to trade him at the deadline.    Really Allvin should be letting all GMs know on the sly, that Brock, Garland, Myers, Miller and Horvat are on the market and accepting offers on any of them right now.
