It is bizarre to have your head hockey guy having such a close relationship with some of the players. - golfingsince
From FA's mouth
In his role, Linden will be responsible for all hockey operations, including the coaching and scouting staffs, player procurement and development, and minor league affiliations and operations.
And it’s not a ‘figurehead’ job — owner Francesco Aquilini says Linden will be calling the shots.
He says, “Trevor will make all the decisions on hockey-related personnel: coaches, players, free agents…Trevor will be in charge for all hockey operations and make all the decisions.”
Aquilini praised Linden as a “proven leader.” |

That and the constant mixed messages.
Saying he couldn't tell the Sedins that the Canucks were going for a re-build did it for me. - Marwood

That in itself is a mixed message. Signing LE to a 6 year deal at his age doesn't exactly scream re-build to me. |

So what I get from this is Linden drafted JV.

On another topic....

Pffft. Why should this 'tapping epidemic' be of any concern? It's completely pointless to female dog about it until officials are allowed to call infractions based on the definition of the penalties and not the score, who's winning, how much time's on the clock, how many powerplays the other team's had, who's got momentum at the time, who needs the points more, if the offender is a ticket draw or on a 'pet market' team, etc., etc., |

It's BS to play the kids, despite what management has come out and said publicly if they aren't going to play hard.
You play the kids to see what they have, and if they don't have the heart for it their ass should be on the sidelines. That's about the only way to coach effort. - golfingsince
if they arent trying i get that, but what kid wouldnt be putting the effort in at this point knowing that jobs are up for grabs?
Well other than JV.. |

that be my pick to, although if FA actually steps back or TL or whoever was calling the shots and lets benning do things maybe we can see what he is really about.
if you get tallon in there with benning in charge of drafting that would probably work well |

How is Wpg Car NJ Ari Col doing with that system? - VANTEL
In contrast to some teams like CLB, TOR, EDM and CAL, not very good. |

This isn't the first coach that's called him out on his effort. It's a bit of a pattern with him. |

Why the Canucks suck and will go no where and achieve nothing.
1)Blame it all on the players. They all suck except for one who isn't a 1C. Everyone else should get traded or played in the AHL.
2)Blame it all on Mangement. They are dumb. They don't know what they are doing. They make bad decisions. They listen to Ownership. They are too close to the Sedins.
3)Blame it on Ownership. They only want to sell jerseys of sucky players and spend money on UFA's and RFA's. Their constant interference in not blowing up the team is a testament to their greed. They don't get the fans want a loser for years.
4)Blame it on coaching. If it's broke why fix it. It's hard work doing the same things over and over again. They can't do any better because everything else sucks. They should get fired and go to a better team.
The fans know it all and should be running the team to get the Cup. |

He might just be one of those guys who just never puts it together. I would have preferred to get their 1st instead of him but was just happy that we finally changed directions and are going to the rebuild. |

Dude, the organization has not looked professional in years. I'll blame that much on the owner.
Gillis and Linden were both hired pretty shadily. Didn't Linden deny a link between him and the Canucks days before he was hired? - golfingsince
