I made the decision this morning while I was eating my elephant.

That elephant was so good your forgot about the most important emoji...

 

But I just checked and you have now added it again.  Thank you sir.  Maybe I'll stick around now...

I'm usually very compassionate about the elderly. I feel so much empathy and a bit protective of them.

 

With JR, I just feel like he should be placed in a room with rails on the bed and given a nice cup of tea and a crossword puzzle. Tell him not to yell at the walls too much and check in on him every now and then to make sure his vitals are stable.

 

Patrik can bring him his blankie if he gets a chill.

 

It's time.

 

(I just checked and he's 73 going on 91)

I actually didn't mind Tocchet. He did pretty well here and gave us good meme material as well. 

 

 

Me too. I got a different vibe from him than I thought I would. I saw him on a hockey program/panel the other day and thought he was smug/arrogant. But I didn't get too much of that...I'll be on board for now.

Patrick is the GM lets not forget

And he talks about accountability 

Elephants never forget

The full answer on that one was ok. They didn't fully deny it. Looks like the rest of the season will be a glorified practice.

Yup which is the correct move. We just need to sell some offense and walaa could stay bottom 5

All i got outta that press conference is wondering what elephant tastes like and is it actually eaten 

Tastes like chicken, until you get to the anus.

It was the timing of it all. Went from elephant in the room to eating it. MMMMM hungry....

 

Pulled out all the elephant stops in one go.

I appreciate the context.

Allvin mentions that they are still talking to Bo's agent and "we'll see where it goes". I wonder if they are still entertaining the notion of re-signing him.

Never say never. We all thought JT was a gone at the end of the last season.

He should've ended that comment with "when I see an elephant fly" for the perfect trifecta.

Heard that too! Couldn’t identify the voice, but maybe it was Murph.

 

Sounded like some version of the “ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag” idiom, which, according to various online dictionaries, is a phrase used to “describe something that is extremely ugly, messy, or f*****-up.”

 

Definitely not the kind of thing Canucks PR would’ve liked going out over a hot mic at the end of the new coach introduction presser.

 

But probably a good reflection of where many people’s heads are at today.

Dman i missed it . I hope they don't clip it off 

[24K PureCool]

With regard to Tocchet.

 

I heard nothing he said that is not out of the norm that any incoming head coach would say. 

 

So I guess that is a win for him?
