nuckin_futz Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Gotta laugh at this Basant Motors ad they keep playing on Donnie and Dhali. The commercial features Podkolzin, Garland and Joshua. A guy in the minors, a guy who's being shopped around and a grinder. Probably could have chosen the cast a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawbone Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I keep thinking of how the Seattle Kraken, in just their 2nd year, have put together a team that's on pace for more points this season than any Canucks team in the last 10 years. They have a bunch of journeymen players, no superstars, and on paper do not look like a 100 point team, but here we are. It just goes to show how building a TEAM is so much more important than collecting a bunch of players that look good on paper. This Canucks roster has been tinkered with endlessly over the past decade, and the end result is always garbage. Maybe, just maybe, there's some magic combination of a few individual player moves that can bring chemistry and success to this team, but it seems impossible to predict and maybe isn't possible at all. The only path forward that provides at least a reasonable chance at success within a few years is to gut this roster, get as many good draft picks, prospects, and cap space as possible, be near the bottom of the standings for a couple of years (which they're doing anyhow!) and build back from the ground up, taking in to account how every single player added is going to contribute to overall team success. That's obviously the incredibly hard part, but that's why the management folks get paid the big bucks. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
