Have you purchased the (obligatory) Canucks vest for said canine yet?

He probably won't like water so I don't think a diving vest is needed for him.

Sounds like an interesting mix. I look forward to seeing a picture.

All I can say is, all this Linden excitement will be tempered significantly if Torts is still here next year and, as you noted, the jury will be out until we see who the managerial group/coach/coaching staff will be composed of. I guess it's baby steps for now
- Zogg


If Torts remains next season I'll be even more upset. That would mean not one but two GMs seem to think he's the right coach for this team, which would be compounded idiocy.

If they have to rebuild or retool torts is possibly the worst coach to have, right along with Randy Carlyle.

I wonder if Gallagher's right and Shanny/Benning are on the top of his shortlist.
- Nucker101

Linden said today he would like someone more experienced than Shannys and also he needs permission to talk to the image he has in mind seeing they are under contract with a current NHL team? I think he is looking hard at Bennington.

If Linden wants him, Calgary will give him up and they will like it. It's Trevor Linden damn it!!
- fiveandagame

kind of true, iggy and the flames almost paid more respect to him in his last year then AV and management did.

She was the only female dog who came out black. The rest where like the the mother(bordeaux). All the pups were taken but someone backed out. Don't know if it was because they wanted the Frenchie chocolate looking ones or what.

I agree, it's a nightmare scenario as far as I'm concerned. All these ambitious changes and the good-will the hiring of Linden brings, will mean absolutely nothing unless he goes.

Well, once the monsoon season rolls around, I think it will be imperative Thunda procures some quality canine water-proof vests (I suggest going with the Linden motif of course). Perhaps even booties? or is that too emasculating even for a dog?

she will be the envy of canines everywhere

I think if we hang onto this core we will be pissed off again. Next year and years to follow.

I just hope linden being friends with most of this core doesn't affect how he handles this mess.
