I know what I know about the fam. You dont have to beleive. And profit of 750mil is literally making some profit. Is it max? maybe not but if he keeps retooling instead of a rebuild, then in theory the Nucks make the dance more often which equals big revenue.

It's technically only profit if he sells the team. Meanwhile, while you own the team it has to be super profitable to gain that much value.....that's how investment works. It's not that I don't believe that you somehow know the Aquilini's, I've go zero way to vet that information. I just know how investing works. To own an NHL team, have it increase in value three- fold and then say the owner (who's an investor) likely isn't motivated by profit just doesn't seem to hold water. Maybe I'm just a pessimist.

CanucksJay Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Ethan Bear being at the right place defensively and then tripping over someone and getting taken out of the play resulting effectively in a 2 on 0 for another goal against is pretty much the epitome of canucks hockey. So was Burroughs reversing the puck to a Tampa player and getting scored on... SMH.... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 If they do hire Tocchett I pray that they at least put time into hiring really good assistants. They completely screwed that up last time with Cull and Yeo. Doesn’t give me confidence that they won’t just go with some other failed retread and someone like Agnew from Abbotsford… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not disagreeing with how investments work. It wouldn't be the first time a billioniare does things with his money for personal reasons, though. Elon and Kanye come to mind. I worked with his high up people on the business side. I also had a friend that dated his daughter for years. They had a few stories. Nothing crazy but the familly is 'invested' in what decisions the team makes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that still doesn't mean trading picks for projects is the road to the Stanley cup. You need to have off years in order to win a cup. Full rebuild or not can be argued. But not having any off years, like Vancouver, Calgary and Philly seem to do, will not work. Edited January 19, 2023 by MaxVerstappen33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apricot Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 @Wise Guy I just saw this . You’re absolutely right, but I thought that’s what we want to do? I’ve been telling all of them to suck on purpose because we’re all team #tankforbedard. If you’d like I can talk to them…. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
