To clarify for the interlopers or the too lazy to back read or selective memory loss.

I said many times this is now JB’s team & it’s all on him. I also said the same for Green & his staff. An extension is more for optics & no guarantee JB’s job is safe.

His job is safe, who extends someone only to fire them?

I be ok if they extended Benning if he had a flat out BAN from taking part in Free Agency.

Not my money so idc tbh

A lame duck GM is bad juju. All i read into it is JB has a job from season to season not the entire term. If this season blows up in his face he could get axed anyways.

This has been discussed and approved by team whiner. We also added Trades and Public Speaking to the ban list.

I think having 9+mil tied up in 2 useless Lou's for the next 3 years takes care of that.

Why not remove free agency altogether & save most GM’s from themselves?

Btw i’m not sure if I ever saw you post anything good or suggest what you would do. I do you see you on other blogs complaining like a champ.

You're moving right? Sometimes we get in ruts and a change of scenery helps kick start a healthier lifestyle.

That's exactly what happened to me when I moved from the east coast to the west coast. I'm healthier at 50 then I was at 30.

Then again, I smoke a hell of a lot more cannabis now then I did back then so maybe it's a moot point.

Not give big money to cats over 30
And when it comes to the decision of a draft pick ranking always go with the non CHL scout.

Totally agree. A fresh start is a new beginning to get all things in better order. I’ve been fortunate with my health & had a great metabolism for an unhealthy lifestyle. Time to stop taking it for granted. The ganja is only a demotivator that is all in the mind & something i will need to change.

Cannabis is good for you people will find out with some research, smoking isn't the way to go but it wont kill you.

Yep that too.

From outsider standpoint and why Benning gets (and deserves) a lot of grief is the fact that he gave tbay an out. I bet you could practically hear the collective face palms from other GMs ... Jim Jim Jimmy . One of the elite run teams looked to be in a corner and finally have to give up one of their good younger players and Jimbo extended a lifeline to a team that certainly doesn't need one. This year's playoffs aside, they are and will be a force for long time.

Other GM's probably tried to get Miller and that took the trade price out of bargain basement.

Normally for a player like Miller a team would want a good player and/or top end prospect back. Which would leave the Canucks out of the trade. Like what happened with Barrie and the Avs.
