The only way to improve his public speaking is keep him away from a microphone

He stopped trading picks

Yup definitely slowed down , I'm not convinced he won't do it again though.

I don't think he'll get renewed when these two years are up or he'll be fired at the end of this year/season.

Not true, he traded a fourth rounder and only made six picks this year. In five drafts he's traded away a pick in every one of them.

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

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

In that case he just added a 6th so he hasn’t traded any picks in the last 12 months

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

Got me there 😂😂👍
Fact i said JB is under the microscope this year & beyond. Gave him a grace period dismantling MG’s mess. Tikanese is a subtle art form of speech.

We pretty well knew JB wouldn't last to see the rebuild.

My only hope is it kills off all of the bandwagoners for good & more so the Pacific Mausoleum crowd of days gone by who won’t go away. Those 2 ignorant factions gone once & for all is my dream.
True JB is likely gone as most GM’s rarely get to be around to see the payoff.

If they plan on winning with some of the kids he's drafted they'd be wise let someone who knows how to trade become the GM.

I suspect if the team doesn’t improve by 10 points or more in the standings he will be fired before the draft.

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

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’d hire Benning. He could be a motivational speaker. From a grade 10 education to the leader of a billionaire dollar company. A real rags to riches classic
