All these names being brought up for LE are just to take the attention off of Benning for signing him.

That's what I laugh at. All these people saying what a good job Benning does getting rid of his mistakes. If he can get rid of LE, he'll probably get a pat on the back from his fan club.

I got off the benning wagon when he traded a 1st to a cap strap strapped team and included a 1st rounder...

And if he doesn't he'll be criticized by the haters, if he does he will be criticized by by the haters...my point...haters will always hate good or bad

I'm looking forward to JB's fans blaming Benning when the next GM gets hired and can't make the playoffs.

I was thinking more about "How to Get Ahead in Advertising"

That would be quite the event night.

Interesting conspiracy. The hockey media is trying to make a smoke screen for Benning.

In this day and age it’s easy to pin it on one guy but I don’t believe most of the decisions made my today’s management groups are done by one person. More like an idiot collective with a single fall guy.

I wouldn't blame the previous GM for setting up the next GM and him failing.

Mistakes need to be criticized and never forgotten. Makes a GM think twice before making them again. Think of fan hate as a memo to management; keep (frank)ing up and we'll pressure a very skitterish owner to can your ass.

The final decision is made by him but if you don't have the staff to give you the right input it's still your fault for keeping those people around, like our pro scouts.

Sportsnet 650: John Shannon on Sportsnet 650 on Vancouver Canucks restricted free agent forward Brock Boeser: “Both sides are saying the right things. I fully expect he will be in camp with a new contract. Just don’t ask me how much because the Hayes signing was pretty nuts so anything can happen.”
-------------------------------------------

I don't know how Hayes really has that much to do with Boeser.
Not nearly the same age
Nowhere near the same experience.
Goal scorer vs playmaker
Wingers vs centermen
RFA vs UFA
Crazy overpaid and everyone knows it vs zero leverage.

The scene in the hospital, just before the bogart is lanced. So much to like about that movie and how pathetic our consumerism society is...

I have a digital copy on my computer. Used to have the DVD but I lent it to a friend and never got it back. You should be able to find a torrent of it somewhere. Don’t think any of the streaming services offer it, but who knows.
