Give Benning one more draft and then move his desk to the basement like Milton.

Do you even need Benning for the draft as long as the scouting is in place? I don't care either way if he's around for the draft or not but damn it's time to find someone else to evaluate pro talent.

If a gm with experience is out of work I don’t think they are too picky. Not a lot of gm jobs around, but I don’t think the owners want to pay for someone with experience.

FA doesn't have to put a winning product on the ice to make money in this market, same with Toronto.

Ignore the past. Focus on the future.

Canada u18s slaughtered the reigning champ Swedes 12-1 yesterday.

Canucks NEED to tank for 2022 and 2023.

It's definitely affecting them. I hope it doesn't lead to permanent repercussions for any of the players or coaches.
Unfortunately, it will also be used as an excuse for pre-existing issues.

I knew last year covid would be used as the cap excuse. Now it will be the excuse for the entire season.

I'm no math genius (wink wink), but if my math is correct and Ottawa wins, 42 points > 41 points

I said it before, Aquilini is lucky there are no fans in the arena.

Maybe they didn't get enough rest with the early start?

Remember the old days when fans hung banners from the upper level at the Coliseum.

All season long this team has looked utterly incapable of winning when they don't get elite level goaltending, aside from a select few games.

The only reason I could think of is that a new gm is going to come in with his own ideas about the draft.
