What we can't handle is mediocrity and treating fans like idiots and squeezing them for every dollar they own Sure we can all handle a rebuild. But the question is, will we support it by buying tickets to the games. There are quite a few empty seats right now. I personally don't think people will be buying tickets if we rebuild, and that is what matters to ownership unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might be good enough in 5 years for another one and done run with this plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the cup is the end goal ,the bench mark, but theres 30 other teams in NHL purgatory every year ,and close only counts in horse shoes and hand grenades. Theres far better teams that come close and fail and on a consistent basis when compared to the canucks you sound very frustrated. And I can sympathize with you. Man I’m 63. And been waiting since I was 11 years old. But I’ve never taken the negative outlook like yours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
