Your take is literally the equivalent of having and expecting a car to run 365 days a year, all the while having 3 flat tires, an oil leak, a faulty o2 sensor, and a faulty thermostat, and instead of fixing the problem, just complaining that all you care about is wanting a fully functioning vehicle

Let it go.
As you said earlier, not everyone lives & breathes analytics.
Personally, I think they are a small tool to use with other measures.
I find they are often used to back-up confirmation bias.

No wonder I left you in the ball room at Ikea 25 years ago.

Just read Canucks gave up 3 short handed goals

Good job Newell

Again though, just a difference of opinion i guess

It's reality setting in. Benning has some done some good things but also made some gaffes like all GM's do. We just don't have the players to make a run for the WC spot.

We need a top 5 pick badly to complement Pettersson.

I dont see us getting anything but a top 5 pick this year. Outside the top 2, there is a great selection of kids. More D than forwards but i really like brady tkachuk

Anyone who uses strictly fancy stats to build a team are idiots. Like you said, its a complimentry performance metric tool that should be utilized and acknowledged is all im sayìng. I never would have thought posting a single players impressive post game corsi would have had someone so triggered but i know now how he stands. All good.

DP had a very good seeing eye test game imo lol

I am glad we are falling back we do need high end talent . Jim is batting 500 IMO.
I want this season to end and see what it looks like next year.

It looks like Canucks have about 7 good prospects but the Comets are not that good.

I hope they make serious changes this year starting with Mgmt.

We need a Boqvist Wilde and Tkachuk

I think boqvist is going 3oa no matter what. He is kind of being overshadowed by dahlin. He's going to be real good too

Glad Derrick Pouliot is finding his way.

If we're losing due to Tanev's absence, their in more trouble than i thought.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The prospect rating does finally look decent.

I remember when Benning was first hired some of us talked about whether he would be here for a renewal…hard to say.

The loss of Tanev really re-iterates the fact we need more shut down dmen…maybe the draft.

But it's clear Edler needs to go.

I'm actually glad we passed on Tkachuk and went with OJ.

Watched them both closely at Mem Cup and thought OJ was the way to go.

Plus Tkachuk seems like quite a tool not sure we want more of that Burrows/Kesler crap on the team now that we are rid of it.

One players absence having this much of a negative impact is a healthy dose of reality for the club. Team is not very good.

From the clips ive seen, brady plays much like his brother. Both play with a chip on their shoulders and both play a gritty game. I think we kind of need a player like that now. But we need so many different types of players right now, anything in the top 5 will be a win
