No he’s not

Why yes he is, and you are wrong

That’s just a bunch of folklore to make your position sound better, none of it’s actually true. Sure the kid had a cocky attitude but what kid in the NHL at 19 doesn’t, his trading had everything to do with Benning wanting a big right shot defenceman not because of Jared McCann’s attitude.

He also gave up the 33rd overall pick, it was a terrible terrible trade. I voiced my opinion at the time that Gudbranson was a terrible defenseman, I made the comparison to Brenden Dillon and you laughed, he’s probably worse than Dillon.

Florida ended up with Adam Mascherin , Jonathan Ang ( 2 premier NHL stars)

Superstar McCann was traded for Brassard who scored one goal for the Panthers and Sheahan who scored two goals for the Panthers. Excellent trade for the Panthers.

We eventually ended up with Pearson Florida ended up with empty lockers.

McCann eventually ended up with Pens and we got Pearson who has 1 more goal and 3 more assisits.

I am sure you are going to throw in Yah but he is younger. We have young center Gaudette and other young talent.

You are wrong and I can’t believe you got passed the rank of CPO2


Happy New Year !!

That’s pure hindsight, it was a terrible trade. He traded McCann and the 33rd overall pick for Pearson, that’s brutal.

McCann is a bust on most teams, Pearson is just better and more experienced which is why he has better point totals over “it is what it is” d1ckhead.

What do you guys think of the kit that Nashville and Dallas are wearing?

I’ve seen no proof of that and who cares if they did, send him down, he shouldn’t have been there anyways as he wasn’t ready....another stupid move by Benning.

If you want to know how to decorate your furniture or the phone numbers of the local hookers the The Straight is your publication of choice. Sports info is not their specialty.


Do you even know who Nathan Caddell is

He gave the fans EXACTLY what they were kicking and screaming for.

You don’t manage an $800 million dollar business by listening to the fans, he’s a terrible GM.

Hasn't stopped the fans from thinking they are great GM's

This is actually a pretty entertaining game.

Canucks profit from 2005 to 2018

But Benning does have 17 mil in wasted salary

Don't look, Nylander has 35 in 41 games this season.
