It was leaked by Friedman then came the media session when JR was asked. JR couldn't lie and said he wasn't talkign to any candidates. If he said he didn't and then Bruce gets fired that would look even worse on him. Two words "No comment". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the odds from 5-8. They go 8.5%, 7.5%, 6.5%, 6.0%. All very close and we'd have a very similar chance as these teams in both the #1 draw, and the #2 draw. That said there could very well be a gem at 5-8 as well. It'll be very interesting to see how the prospects finish down the stretch. I think we have to be going for a center unless someone jumps up the table. Yeah for sure, being in the top 10 definitely helps and there are some very good players available. Odds are, the Canucks lottery luck HAS to change at some point, doesn't it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made last season a memorable one. I love Bruce as a coach. He brought a lot of fun after years of Green's 1-0 / 2-1 games. Bruce also reignited Petey's game (directly/indirectly). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean media was able to post the entire kraken roster before the BIG announcement. You’ve missed nuckins entire point of Jim Rutherford had he had an ounce of class it wouldn’t have been a media issue.like at all ! But the stupider part would be comparing a roster announcement to that. Gotcha. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will have so many repercussions from agents that will tell their clients to avoid this clown show of an organization, we have become the oilers pre Mcdavid and it’s only going to get worse from here 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RU SERIOUS Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Likely the 2nd to last (maybe 3rd last) game for Bruce as rumor is he'll be fired early next week. Feel so bad for this guy, used like a carpet by Ruthrford and treated like doggie-doo! What a classless way to go down! Not surprised when you have a Leaky Condo Construction Contractor running things and JR, who has not been very impressive to start after all the hoopla by Aqua-lini!

If Rutherford doesn’t open his big mouth which actually accomplished nothing. It WOULDNT have been an issue. Plain and simple !! During the same presser he admits to offering horvat with prior performance and excludes this year. You do realize he’s diminishing his own asset.
