3/12. Jim Benning will now head up hockey operations and report directly to the ownership group.

I just think for the time being until they hire a new pres

Idk if quit is exact.
I’m guessing FA wants a new direction & already has a Prez in mind. I ignore the usual platitudes calling it bs smoke screen

😂😂

Perhaps this means they are going to bring in a New GM instead and let Benning do all the PR.

The team announced what they called an “amicable” departure on Wednesday.

"I just felt that someone needed to wipe down the treadmills at my gym, and I was the best option for that."

Wonder who the replacement candidates are?
Is Mark Hunter decent?

Watch the pendulum swing again towards JB being decent in the eyes of fans here.

Good draft. Check. Not many arguing about the smurf's talent.
Good UFA day. Check. Didn't go buckwild, shored up some depth, creating competition.
Re upped JV and Stetcher for short term deals around market value.

The Gym Manager is gone and it took me less than a week on hockey buzz.

Sharpens knife....ready for the next one.

Idk when he wasn’t decent. Not one of those nit picky fans jumping on every detail or move. That said its time to see results.

Twitter and the radio are great right now. I always love to see the knives come out once a guy leaves.

Last summer, "Linden is the voice of reason and the guy who wants to rebuild."

Now, "Linden was standing in the way of the rebuild and also retiring Bure's number and also he thinks the puck should be replaced with newborn babies"

Not sure Linden and ownership always saw eye to eye. Believe he would have stepped down if told to gas WD after his second year behind bench.

He'd be no different than JB. Amateur scout by trade, nothing else by qualification.

I think what upset Trev baby was Canucks still had 9 mil in cap space and there were more aging plugs he could have filled

What’s your beef with linden? Sad to see him go out this way. He will alsways be a Canuck and hope he does well in his next venture

Good move for you guys. He was (frank)ing useless. Get rid of Benning and assemble a top notch management team, which I believe a team like the Nucks wouldn't have a hard time attracting.

Probably starts with ex Leafs AGM, Hunter.

Couldn't keep a Swedish team in the first division, pretty sure it folded.

So sure, sounds promising.

His next venture will be his old venture.

he was unqualified at his job during arguably one of the most important points in franchise history.

I lived in some squalid basement suite off of Kingsway & Victoria. We called it 'The Gateway to Hell'.
