Flames have been rebuilding since 2005...

About 6 years later than your Oilers.

All this positive talk about Joe Levy yet he still can’t crack the lineup. Don’t get me wrong I liked what I saw about him earlier but do you really think he’s a positive building block going forward?

Is Green just being mean to him? Or is Benn a better option?

Green is the absolute worst at developing young players, if he is back as suggested earlier, (regardless of the negativity of this comment) it will be another bottom 5 finish.

I will be shocked if he gets an extension. Shocked and very mad.

JB also suggested as much (2 more years to compete). That said his stories change frequently as well. I guess that's part of being an astute, savvy GM.

It just feels like a change is going to happen, either with Benning or Green, hopefully a new GM that brings in a new coach.

Maybe FA relinquishes his duties as President of Hockey Operations?

That's because in 2 years the Roussel, Beagle, LE and now Holtby deals expire.

That is my hope. I think the Canucks will have a tough time trying to renew or sell season tickets with the same people in charge. I just hope the do a proper vetting for both positions.

Yeah he did say a couple of years, I really don’t get hung up on what Benning spouts off about.

This team has some good talent, we need a proper management and coaching group to take it to the next level.

100%, I'd be okay with Benning in a scouting role, aside from that, see ya.

Winning the lotto 4 times and getting mcdavid saved thier ass, without him where would they be? Top line has 3 top 5 picks and the canucks havn't picked top 5 since the Sedins.there is our problem but we have no luck.

I have the DCC gold CD copy of Queensryche's Empire mastered by Steve Hoffman. Ironically, the digital version is better than both pressings on vinyl original and heaveyweight. Very tough CD to find though they go for around $200 bucks now.

Holland will get things done. Only been a year there.

Problem with us is that we 'technically' should have torn the team down after the 2012 blowout loss to the Sharks in PO's but oh no...Gillis just had to hang on...

Hello, Happy Sunday!

Just posted a new blog, which I think is pretty juicy considering the Canucks aren't even playing...

Yikes. Listening to the Empire link you posted. Perfect weather here for staying inside and listening to some music.
