Probably the difference between me and you is you look at the overall job (the five years of Benning) and I look at the last two.

Some people hate the Beagle signing , I don't .

$3M for 3 goals, who can complain?

Considering drafting is a crapshoot he’s done a good job. It’s the rest of his work that I’m unhappy with. That’s why I don’t believe he’s a true GM. JB is a hockey guy, no doubt. But I think he’s miscast in his current role.

Yes VERY good value, great 4th line centre, tough to criticize anything about Beagle

Do you still have season tickets? I miss your “Dear Bloated “ letters from the Canucks to its season ticket holders.

I’d provide plenty of “glue” for the boys in the room for a lot less than $3M

Didn't you not say two days ago that you don't judge a player or his contract by his numbers? It sure sounds to me like you actually do.

Glad you remembered since you wanted to trade Tanev and yet you like Beagle

That’s exactly what I was getting at here

No. I told them to (frank) off when they hired Torts. That was the straw that broke my 15 year run as a STH. I couldn't continue to invest in such a poorly run company.

That's why I feel entitled to female dog and moan every chance I get.

Except Beagle doesn't sit in the stands for his contract.

Missed 25 games

Again, I want this team to be good again so I have a higher bar than “at least we’re not Edmonton”

$3M for 3 goals from a forward is not something I’m satisfied with as a fan of this team

Caps must’ve had some elite 4th line wingers, we should’ve signed them instead

In the last 3 years Tanev has missed a combined 85 games beagle has missed 29 . It is stupid putting them in the same category

Ok I’ll start

My bleep is about bleeping the cap. Any anchor contract needs a bleep for optimum bleep bleep. I envision a couple bleep bleeps are coming before or on the draft day. Sutter is odd man out for a team needing a bleep bleep bleep.

I honestly hope so, he turns 34 in October but does keep himself in great shape but eventually Father Time catches everyone, the Sedins were in great shape too and they still lost a step.

Maybe less time with Eriksson on his line will help, feels weird to have Loui on an “energy line” anyway
