That's expected.

They say that every year. They finished almost bottom 5 in the league. Is it so hard to be honest?

Yes, we need some changes. Look at where we finished in the standings. We weren't good enough. We need to trade for Crosby.

Kes sure sounds like he wants new line mates...

"I believe the centre makes the line go. What do I need in a line mate? That's not my job, that's the jobs of the coach and the GM."

- hankthetank


If he truly believes constructing lines is the job of the coach & GM then he'll accept a role as RW, right?

Love that he says "I believe the centre makes the line go" because his lines go nowhere when he's centre.

It is when your job and season ticket renewals depend on you not being honest.

What else are they going to say? Naslund got ripped for the "we choked" from what I can remember.

Patterson: Did you have an end game, going into the tunnel that night?

Torts: I did. I was gonna get him. I'm not gonna lie. If I would have got in, I would have got him.

Woah, Torts just said he felt from day one that the locker room is stale and needs youth.

It's stale. This is a group that has been together a long time. It's stale. It needs some youth. We have to stop talking about 2011. This isn't 2011. We need some youth.

Nice to see someone being honest! It's not criticism, it's true.

Maybe Torts will be the new director of player safety. Would love to see his suspension videos.

If torts coached as well as he spins things in the media we'd have won the cup this year.

I agree with everything he's saying. Lack of depth, youth and says he was part of the problem during the 2nd half. Hopefully Linden is taking notes.

Speaking of lack of youth:

Canucks have third-fewest GP by draft picks since 2001 (Ron Delorme era).

This is great stuff


I'm gonna talk with Trevor and he's either gonna say "Holy sh!t, get this guy outta here", or he's gonna say "let's have another conversation."

Another thing I really like about Torts right now is that he is sitting there taking the heat and being honest. If this were AV, we wouldn't even hear from him.

Sums up my thoughts on Tort's presser. Too bad the guy can't as effectively as he does his pressers.
