I am not happy with much about our current management group or their transactions,

but

I do like the current coaching staff, or at least the new hires and Clark

Wonder if there are any former players coached by our new staff, that may become acquisition targets?

 

for example, anyone on the Russian national team that played under Gonchar

Not trying to imply anything or another, but I tried to google up Rick Tocchett and another link popped up.

As you might know by now, I am a sucker, and I clicked on the new link "Rick Tocchett's Wife".

Boing!  Wayne Gretzky's Wife!

I kid you not.  Google it if you don't believe me.

All class from Bruce as usual.  Have to admire his restraint in not calling out the slimeball in the President's office who sabotaged Boudreau and then threw him under the bus.

I mean the team and structure was less than mediocre under Bruce.

And yet the assistant coach who was brought in specifically to fix the structure was not fired.

Let’s put the blame where the blame is do, this hasn’t been a coaching issue. It is a decade of league worst management issue.

The last GM the Canucks had who was competent beyond all doubt was Burke, although I didn't mind Nonis.
