Like you love him now?

Like I said, a tad creepy.

Enjoy your DVD box set of My Sister Sam.

She really did love you, you know.

(frank) no. Why?

What has Gillis done for Vancouver?

I dare you to name all the players on the Canucks roster that Nonis brought in compared to what Gillis has. Go, on, call my bluff.

Yes, Burke and Nonis made some good moves here. Again, is Gillis supposed to trade them away because they weren't his players? No, instead he signed them all to discounts.

And keeping a player that didn't want to be here is a good decision how? This has been gone over in detail, old news, catch up.

Thats what Gillis wants you to think!

It's a shame they don't need a 4th line centre who is good at faceoffs.

Because we have like 40 of them.

you so funny!! News flash, we lost to them last year and the year before. Still went to the Cup finals and finished with the best record in the league both years.

And both seasons you won as many cups as 28 other NHL teams. High 5.

trade Nonis for Gillis...you wouldn't do it?
- Boinker

I find it funny that the last 2 men (Burke and Nonis) who basically built your franchise are now beneath Gillis.

What exactly has Gillis done that's so spectacular? Tell me about his track record...

We all know the Sedins were Burke's...and Luongo to Van was Nonis...did Gillis at least draft Kesler?

Gillis is a veteran GM


Wasn't Gillis a players agent before becoming the GM for Vancouver?

Winning a cup takes a lot of luck. We didn't have it. Too bad. We still get to watch one of the best products on the ice, over the last four years. That 2010/2011 team has to go down as one of the best teams to never win a championship. First in goals for, first in goals against, first in pp and first on pk.

Gillis is an idiot.
- Fakepartofme

That maybe so but he's trying to do right by his team and ask for the noon and the stars.

doesn't mean he'll either of them.

You went to the finals. Until you win a Cup, you dont have the privledge of calling it by name.

If Philly is offering Couturier, I'd do that one in a heartbeat.

If this is the case it would likely be "take Bryz and we'll give you Couturier" Still a bad deal because then you have to find a home for Bryz. That would be harder than moving Lu.
