Unless he REALLY improve that's gonna be for a really poopty center

We can throw in Benning as part of the package

I think JB and everyone knew we’d suck for 3-5 years. They have to try to win either way. Imagine a pro sports team didn’t. I’d rather try to win and pick 7 then try to tank and maybe pick top 3.

Losing culture sticks.

I don't think he did, at all. They all admitted after the first couple years they had to rethink things. Linden spoke to this.

Losing culture is such a bullpoop cliche, you get better when you manage better.

If Benning wasn't a hockey GM he'd be a 70 year old piss-tank like you still working trying to make ends meet while living in someone's basement suite

Nice try Bozo.
I live & work in my own country.
I could’ve worked in the Middle East to avoid our taxes. Camel Piss beer no thx.
Too much sand between your ears.

It was strange how that guy just disappeared one day. I fear a poster found out who he was and drowned him in a barrel of soy lattes

I think it was UG but their ref retired so he's posting over in their thread again

Lack of intelligence or education c’mon

If you can’t see that trading a second pick and a 4th is different then you are fat and stupid
- CanuckDon

So he’ll only trade a 5th next year?

Hopefully he trades a 6th! 5th round picks appear to be his specialty

A 5th gets the crowbar hotel.

7th then?

He will have about 25 mil in cap space next year . A high draft pick. They will also pretty well have a full roster already set . Yet I still expect to hear chants of Fire Benn Ing as soon as we hit a slump

Not sure how those specific things are an accomplishment


Letting contracts expire while icing a poop team is a job literally anyone can do by sitting on their hands for long enough

And yet not many GM’s catch onto that.
Tanking is a fine art after its all said n done

Well the ones who have good teams that have legit playoff hopes or have young teams ready to take the next step would be stupid to do it.

Canucks fit into neither category in this point in time so it should be a no-brainer, not some kind of an accomplishment

Ovi's at the World Cup with the Stanley Cup and I've been putting together a new blog for you, with the development camp wrapup, Stecher's arbitration filing and a look at Baertschi's contract.

The issue for me is he's accomplished what I wanted, low finishes, but he wasn't trying to finish low, he was trying to be competitive. That's why he's an idiot.

If he's fired I win both ways

If you believe this, then you are as smart as Jimbo is articulate.

Sorry NH this is too funny to pass up . Of course you are defending Benning He talks like you spell and post , no one understands what he is saying .
