You lost me at "I wonder" because everything after that is speculation. Gillis was judged on what the team did during his time at the helm of this team. Benning will be too, and that's as it should be. What happened before they took office is irrelevant.

Its a rare kind of ignorance to simply look at a record and not consider any of the details.

Whats to speculate? Gillis walked into a team in their prime. Thats not speculation. Benning hasnt.... he walked into a mess. Thats not speculation. The scenarios cant be compared fairly is all Im saying... speculation my ass.

yup. thats why if we play like shyt for the next three years the gm wont be as scrutinized as gillis was. Benning is hear to clean up the mess and everyone knows it. should he not do so withing 5 years or so then he's in trouble.

The immediate future. he's just fine.

Is it polite to complain this early in the season that Bieksas Bi*ches isnt dressing his team and getting blown out 15-0?


Just checking, I got ragged on for missing like one day last year.

well since we're basing things on one game, raymond got a hat trick

I like Raymond, he's good value, probably better value than Burrows, but the falling down wore thin. If the Canucks had trades Kesler years ago maybe Raymond would have found a C that could pass him the puck in a shooting area instead of him always going wide and missing the net or falling down and losing the puck.

I'm staring to think Mrs. Marwood isn't real.

Bieksa has been seen here twice all summer. He said he has other commitments now with the new house. Things change.

Nucker should send him a PM and ask him if he wants to continue or is he too busy?

If he doesn't respond in a week then sell his team to the highest bidder or have a disbursement draft.

Like Scooby said the talent pool left of players sucks. Everyone would have have an off week every 15 weeks.

Nucker needs to move bieksas players into active roster spots, not sure why that hasn't been done yet.

We'll wait until I beat Zogg before we trade him

And if we do end up firing Nucker, then his brother should take over. If I've learned anything from the monarchy, I think that's how it works....

Would be nice if Nucker could at least dress a full line up for Bieksa so it's not such a cakewalk for Lefty until we decide what to do, although it might be a little late now.
