You think i agree with Donny very often? Benning talked about this being a rebuilding year and that the kids were going to have to push. Did not talk about the playoffs at all and when asked said if we make the playoffs it will because we ur young guys lead them there. 80-90% of the posters predicted us finishing at the bottom, but half those same people want to complain about it and fire everyone. Jb has said revamping the d this offseason is the priority. I believe that will be his focus.

How are we affording Miller, Barrie, Shattenkirk?

Please show me where Benning said he didn’t think they would make the playoffs. He has said every single season since he took over that their goal was to make the playoffs, and the moves and signings he made reinforce that. Revamp the 4th line, pffft, what a waste of time.

It would probably be better for JB just to sit there with his thumb up his ass waiting until the team is competitive to shell out second round picks for players like Boyle, Plekanac, Jensen and third round picks for Lovejoy, Hagelin.

I would rather him use picks instead of signing them in free agency.

He said it in a radio interview so there is no print .

I got this.

We're can afford it because the salary cap isn't going to be an issue with signing a12 million dollar 4th line.

We can afford anyone now.

I've wanted Benning gone for a few years. The Green anionting I never liked from the start.
That is the same with most of the folks who don't like Benning/Green, they have done so for a while too. It didn't just start with this perennial losing streak.

Before it was: “this is a successful season, how can you be upset?”

Now: “why are you overreacting to this losing streak?”


Some of us have been anti JB/FA for a long time now, winning and losing streaks don’t change our opinions.

My big takeaway from Saturday night: Vegas is going to be very hard to beat in the playoffs, again. What an amazing story they are.

Canucks have a long way to go to get to their level. Now we wait on Quinn Hughes & Will Lockwood...

I completely agree with him.
I'm going to the woodpile before you through a latte at me.

Unless he throws a latte through him, then that thrown-through latte that Don threw would make it more like murder.
