It’s really just more of the same poop and excuses we’ve been subject to for most of the franchise’s existence. Only for about a five year period, 2008-2012, has the team been truly championship caliber. And even then they didn’t manage to win a Cup.

The team looks awful! No getting around that. Right now there’s hockey, playoff baseball, football and even basketball, if that’s your thing, it’s a great time to be a sports fan as there’s a lot of options out there and beer to be consumed.

WC Soccer starting as well. I only watched the first 2 periods, that was enough. The boo's and the jerseys on the ice sends a message to management.

Learning Dokken tracks from Back to the Attack man those George Lynch solos are unreal. Guy was so good are you and your daughter jamming it up?


- LordHumungous


I'm still doing Friday nights with the boys. Daughter is still playing, but I barely see her now that she's started High School.

Been awhile since I listened to Dokken. Might have to throw it on later. Good luck with the Lynch solos. Definitely not simple stuff.

To keep things on topic, blow it up. Fire and trade everyone. Sell the arena, it's cursed. Adopt a puppy as a mascot, and to break up some of the tension around the room. Rebuild done.

Haha….probably. Jets should be able to beat them easily. But if the Bronco’s players are motivated and hate Wilson as much as the Canucks player hate Miller, they might just pull it off.

Ya can play pieces of the Lynch solos but that's it. Guys was an unreal guitar player.

As long as FA is here there will be no teardown. Folks thought gunslinger Rutherford would take care of things but alas to no avail...yet lol.

What would you do? Keep Miller Horvat Petey Demko and start over? With the Culture change this club needs (and has needed) maybe keeping Petey/Demko is the only way?

I'd be shocked to see a teardown at this stage.

Wilson's an idiot, he demands his staff address him as "Mr Unlimited"

So can see why his teammates hate his guts.

Don't worry, FA will be told by Bettman that he needs to sell ala Adam Silver, once his wife wins her child support case and he gets arrested for child abuse. Then some Chinese billionaire will breeze in, buy the team for peanuts, and put a Tokarov to JR/PA and force them to build a winner or be executed (and then bill their families for the ammo used).

Well if you believe the stories about Wilson and Carroll that came out after they blew that Super Bowl vs the Pats it was then I thought there was alot of validity to the stories. The players like Lynch and Sherman and a few others started to sideways mention how entitled Wilson was and it all started to kind of make sense. Carroll still should have been canned along with Wilson leaving.

Miller. Has. Got. To. Go! He’s a cancer, he’s like Jeremy Roenick, a good player but a loudmouth know-it-all. He’s gotta go. Ottawa has a good collection of American kids, their rebuild is going well.

Look at the size and skill on Buffalos’ defence, all collected via the draft. Gotta build a core through the draft.

Technically we've done that with Petey, Horvat, Boeser, Demko, Hughes and a few others. If Miller is that much of an issue do you see this club winning if he's gone? I think it goes quite a bit deeper...

The immediate concern is D.

Pack up Pearson/Garlnad 2nd and get something done.

I'm with Yorky. They should have traded Miller and Boeser and still should.

There's huge issues showing themselves within the leadership group of this team. That would be the first thing I'd deal with because it greatly effects the team culture they keep preaching about.

Miller would be my starting point. He's a tire fire out there. After being rewarded with his contract he should've been ready to hit the ground running. Not one of our worst players. That says a lot to me about his leadership qualities.

Yup, time for new blood in Seattle. Geno's playing well, they are entertaining to watch (unlike the Canucks). I hope Denver tanks like f*ck, those high picks will come in handy next year. After that NE SB loss is when the players went screw this, the guys an entitled idiot.

It may be a different sport but if you have problem players on a team, it's managements job to fix the problem. Rutherford isn't helping himself standing pat.
