No kidding, I'm trying to tell everyone that the goalie situation is not the issue with this present team....let it go folks.

The real issue is the coaching debacle, Green is over his head, Brown is living in the past, Baumgartner's defensive systems are crap...
- Makita

This. I don't think Green is the problem though. Baumer and Brown Though.

It is a weak draft with no stars, so yeah, I would (one for one)

it's not a weak draft, it's an average draft, better than 2018.

you and your semantics, Demko filled in quite nicely in Utica when Bachman was injured. Ok that's out of the way. Next Nilsson was traded and Demko brought up...the rest of the situation was unfortunate, but sh!t happens.

But look at it this way...where would all the hysteria or your hyperbole be generated from if Benning wasn't such a genius

Good point, I yield

If I’ve learned anything from this forum it’s that the 2019 NHL entry draft is the worst in the history of the draft, and it’s in Vancouver.

I follow Cam Robinson and Ryan Biech for prospect updates regarding the draft, and they seem to think its much deeper (in the 1st) than what people presumably think. A couple names that I hadn't even heard of before but recently came up in conversations by them is Bobby Brink and Jamie Drysdale. Two guys with higher ceilings than some people may know about (and two names i hadn't heard of prior to them). Again, everyone is going to have an opinion about this specific draft, but the more I think its weak, the more these two guys seem to prove otherwise

I think if the Canucks fired Green he would find another NHL coaching gig pretty soon. If Willy can, Greener is a lock.

Babcock couldn’t win a playoff round with this motley crew.

I haven't seen anything to suggest Green know how to adapt to in game situations, he plays favourites that have no business on the ice, he stubbornly refuses to bend on player deployment. I see a team with no chemistry with each other, I see a team that isn't prepared to play until well into the game. That is the coaches fault and it is up to him to make adjustments, before the game, during the game, and after the game.

Why is Brisebois sitting in the press box while Tanev plays terribly on his off side?

awesome you keep being you..

I miss Booner...
- LeftCoaster

We all do. His light hearted quips, his razor sharp wit, his deep caring for his fellow fans and his ability to see both sides of the debate and bring us all together are sorely missed.

JK Booner, we really do miss you around these here parts

I think Green basically called Bris a wussy, which is why he isn’t playing. Benning is too stubborn to send him back to Utica though.

awesome you keep being you..

My pleasure buddy

Also, hope you’ve got snow tires and AWD out there. I was supposed to work at RRU on Tuesday but they closed because no one could get to campus.

I haven't had any issues so far, I've been all over the place, I usually engage the tow/haul feature on my truck and if I have to I'll switch into 4x4 high. This morning veterans was a skating rink, bus and cars all over, switched into 4high and went around everyone.

Colwood and Langford should be embarrassed with their snow clearing efforts, Metchosin is awesome.

It's never over because it's continually on display, however, even someone who hates him as a GM, like me, gets tired of discussing it. I haven't had a good Benning rant in ages.

Truth be told, he just is what he is, it's boring though, I'd almost rather discuss the Milankovitch cycles with the environmental engineers lol.

Hey i'm wondering if you can help me out with the Molodensky equation and the fixed shift parameters for specific areas. Specifically in the northern and western hemispheres?

Gordon Head and Saanich main roads are in great condition, but all side roads are pure compacted ice and awful. I swear, the reason the west coast takes so much flack for their "whining" when it comes to snow, is that the city and municipalities are so unprepared for it each time it happens. I haven't seen any roads plowed yet. Parking lots were just getting tractors in this morning to plow. They are just days behind.

Sounds about right. Kesler's been just horrible for the Ducks this year but he might get up for this game lol. Wonder if Perry is back yet?
- LeftCoaster

Watch Kesler injure Pettersson for the remainder of the year...he's that much of a pr!ck.
