Do you really think Tanev is a Hextall type of guy?
- VANTEL

Hextall's not coming here, Benning has a new three year contract that starts NEXT SEASON....he ain't going anywhere.

And as I've repeatedly said, if you can replace a defensive dman in Tanev for less money you certainly do it. Not everyone needs to be an offensive allstar, some guys need to defend.

Its one one the most prophetic movies of all time.

We're Richards! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid Richards. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong-ll is an bumhole. Pussies don't like Richards, because pussies get (frank)ed by Richards. But Richards also (frank) bumholes — bumholes who just want to poop on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with bumholes their way. But the only thing that can (frank) an bumhole is a Richard, with some balls. The problem with Richards is that sometimes they (frank) too much or (frank) when it isn't appropriate — and it takes a wussy to show them that. But sometimes, pussies get so full of poop that they become bumholes themselves... because pussies are only an inch and a half away from bumholes. I don't know much in this crazy, crazy world, but I do know that if you don't let us (frank) this bumhole, we're going to have our Richards and pussies all covered in poop!

If you were capable of following properly this started way back when I said I would take Hamonic ( Who is not an offensive star) at 3 mil over Tanev at 5 mil.

Try to keep up Gramps,

Just a general statement as to Tanev's worth, that's all, as for Hamonic, that's purely hypothetical, which I agreed would be a good fit. However, if you can't get someone like Hamonic then you have to think about re-signing Tanev because his worth to the team is in the numbers.

He won't last that long, don't worry, he's taken this team as far as he can. His missteps will catch up to him late next season of the next, when he'll be canned.

Funny how this conversation started way back about finding a cheaper replacement instead of overpaying Tanev. If only someone started with that


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the way back on page 7

To be clear I wasn't saying we should go after them I was suggesting there will be a list of replacements that could fill in for half the cost.

My buddy took his kid to that movie in the theater not knowing about the "love scene" where she poops all over his face lol

- Pacificgem


I saw it in Calgary when it came out. Was working in the wine biz, three of us skipped out at lunch (had a few bevies) and saw it. I nearly peed my pants a few times. The love scene being one, the other in the bar with the old man explaining how the world really works...

One of Pearson or Ferland won’t be here for top 6 LW in a year or 2.
Are they traded/LTIRed?
Resign Pearson or a prospect earns it?
Can we fit either in as top 9 or too expensive?

Pearson is a good trade chip next year at TDL. He has a good cap hit and is a 20 goal guy. You do have some guys that can play that spot . As we know some of those numbers have been empty net inflated numbers bit they are still numbers.

The other thing is he is a good value player.

Yes it's okay to mismanage your business if others mismanage theirs.

You guys are entitled to your opinion . Like I said many times I understand.

I don't think the Cap is mismanaged. I thought at the beginning of last year Canucks alloted 4.5 for each of Tanev and Markstrom. They have even officially offered Marky 4.5 for 2 years.

Markstrom played over his head this year and wants more . Canucks probably had wiggle room for another half a mil. If he is looking for more than that then good for him he deserves it and I wish him well on his new team there are others that can fill in for two years here in the 3.5 -4.5 range.

Same with Tanev they probably have a reasonable offer for him . If he wants more he will be playing elsewhere.

As much as some call this management stupid they do have a blueprint. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean they wont reach their goals.

“Almost nobody wins so don’t bother trying to win” is that what you’re saying?
