(Well we're not playing in a 5000 seat stadium that our AHL team has a LARGER arena) I'm not saying Ownership and management isn't bad. It is. But he seems to completely forgotten how bad Toronto was under the Ballard regime. Toronto still has an unqualified dweeb with zero understanding of the sport as a GM. Until he is replaced, we're safe from that distinction. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiseupsucker Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 (edited) I got zero hard evidence to back this up but it feels like Vancouver is in the midst of a Buffalo style trajectory from when either team went to the cup finals. Buffalo is further along, which means we have years more of this garbage Edited January 14 by wiseupsucker grammar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NHL player safety committee is not taking this seriously, until an incident happens. On a good note, Garland is one tough angry elf! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanucksJay Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 7 hours ago, Jaimito said: It's hard to say from the outside what they know. Each player's day to day activities, injury, rehab are handled by coaching staff and the medical staff. The management just need updates on how long they will be out etc. If the perception that his medical care was mishandled, that's what the player's perception was (Pearson, his teammates). Management's perception maybe just that it was bad luck and they lost their top 6 winger for the season, just like Poolman, Dermott, etc. It's not like they all sit together and discuss this on a weekly basis. Bruce is busy enough trying to save the sinking ship, he doesn't have time to think about a player's hand injury. All he cares is if a player has been cleared to play or not. So it's not unconceivable that the president of the team doesn't know how players feel about how an injury was managed. The medical team is not going to admit they mishandled it to the president either, if indeed that was the case. The only reason JR had to make this statement is the perception by the players and now by the public. Better to clear the air than sweep it under the rug. I say BS to this. If I am the president of an organization and I'm judged by the performance of 24 employees, I will 100% know if they had a setback on a surgery and will ask why. No boss would not ask what happened.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s their job and it’s what someone is getting paid to do. The report would include details of status and developments regarding injured players, particularly a top roster position holder like Pearson. There is no excuse for Rutherford not being aware , he wouldn’t even have to ask. It’s someone’s job to tell him. That is of course unless the management group has a “country club” atmosphere and old Jimmy hangs a ‘Do Not Disturb, I’m Napping’ sign on his office door.

JR was absolutely aware, but in all my media training I learned that you don't just open up and start blubbering the truth to the media. Your job is to give the media enough information to run with a story without saying anything that creates an obligation or places blame on yourself, colleagues or organization. I'm fine with what JR said and that they are investigating, that's standard response. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words, that’s a pretty long straw he’s using to blow smoke… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
