I had a nightmare last night, Gillis was fired and Burke was rehired, and his first move was to trade 2 firsts and a second for Kessel.

Any time i hear something I will try. Even though I am quite close to him he does not share much.

Understandable.

Any bit of info gives us something to discuss during the long, miserable off season

Your co-worker is (frank)ed in the head. That's like the Lakers hiring Stu Jackson to right the ship.

Luongo hates AV too! Luongo: cory was put in a tough spot being asked to play without much practice time after his groin injury.
- hankthetank


I blame both AV and Gillis. AV for starting a injured goalie with Luongo playing well the first couple of games and Gillis for putting AV in that spot by not dealing with the goaltending situation earlier.

I personally know Gilman. He may want to be a GM but he does not know enough about the game to be one. He can be a Asst. GM because he understands the business side of the game by signing players that he is asked to sign and understanding the cap (He was originally signed as a Capologist). However, he does not know how to put a team together without help from someone who understands the game this is why he needs to be a ASST. Gm at best. I do believe that it is time to get rid of Gillis and AV and start fresh.

Mike Gillis is showing the decisive and strong leadership in his season-ending press conference. Oh, wait. No, just more the same Canucklehead crap.

The owner needs to step in and can Gillis and AV. One or both of the Sedins need to be traded, as well as half a dozen other players, and buyout Booth and Ballard (assuming Luongo can be traded).

Ugh. The media here is so incompetent. No mention of what role 10 different D pairings & countless line combos per game might have played in our disjointed showing...

Ugh, there goes any hope of going back to an offensive, puck-possession game.
