Doesn't matter if poop follows you around as long as it doesn't stick.

Benning used to smear poop into his hair.

Have you ever worked in a structured environment? Do you really think that was Tallon's job?

That stuff gets assigned, in all organizations.

Dale Tallon’s name does show up in the Jenner and Block investigation, but only tangentially: it was he who brought in Aldrich, on the suggestion of Doug Wilson, GM of the San Jose Sharks and boss of Aldrich’s father, the longtime equipment manager of the Sharks.

Of course, he would have been in the May 23 meeting if he hadn’t struggled with the fax machine a year earlier. But he was a big influence in the bad culture on display in that meeting.

He was still a senior advisor, even if he’d lost his role as general manager. But no, he wasn’t in the room when the crucial choices were made.

I thought it was shoe polish?

What because a few guys in here want to feel nostalgic over Canucks first ever draft pick?

Minivan's due for a rage quit, hopefully the draft puts him over the edge.

Oh ya. He is definitely melting down. We will all make his book/ list

Summer could start tonight.

Unlucky…..Makar never got away from Benning, just so we’re clear 70

It’s important that you all know: Tallon is the new Bracket. There are no Rutherford or Allvin picks. Management teams do not make decisions collaboratively and, most importantly, Sakic didn’t draft anyone it was some other guy in the organization like a scout or something making the call.

We’re dealing in reality here son…

Looks like he's on his way out...

Rutherford:

“With J.T. Miller, we’ve suggested we would like to keep him. He’s been a good player for the Canucks, (But) it may not make sense for both sides. This is a time that he’s earned, going into free agency. We’d like to do it but we’ve got to be careful.”
