No. It has to be Burrows or Luongo. No one else deserves it

Yes. I started day drinking so that poster Skippy from the other day that predicted the Canucks would make the playoffs doesn’t feel alone

The irony of the 1040 getting canned before Benning or Green . The can join Dave Pratts podcast I guess?

I think things would have to get a lot worse and that’s hard to imagine. The team is bad but not this bad 🤷‍♂️ I doubt any decisions will be made until the summer. But (frank) who knows

Hmmm...wonder where we might find two Canucks alumni who were accomplished & revered players, have made the city their home, are respected for their community involvement, and are well known to the Aquillini family, to take on the GM & coach positions. We could call one 22 and the other 33 and never know who was doing which role that day!

(Just joking makes at least as much sense as Luongo for GM, ffs )

It would actually make a lot of sense to give them some kind of front office jobs, and have their primary role be to attend rookie camps and teach passing techniques, help bring up the younger generations. They are masters at the passing game after all.

It disgusts me how this organization won’t bring in new blood (most NHL teams for that matter). Is our history so great that we need to be incestuous 🤦🏻‍♂️

The only Ex Canuck I would consider is Hamhuis (as a D coach ) and that is because he spent 9 years under one of the best defences of the decade Nashville Preds. He also spent a few years in Dallas who were very good. It has nothing to do with him being an ex Canuck.

Oh...better yet, have them coach the power play! Vantel would have a coronary!

Let’s not hire people for roles they aren’t capable of doing simply because they used to play for the Canucks.

More seriously what would you think of Mark Hunter as a candidate for GM? Did a great job turning the London Knights into a real power and was well regarded in Toronto before Lou’s exit and Dubas being named GM.

I think Benning had something to do with what happened at 1040.

definitely should be one of the guys interviewed. it would be nice if they interviewed several people. a few that are in the league now (from past GMs to current AGMs) and some guys from the outside (new blood.)

see what the different ideas are out there. pick a gm that can guide in the right direction while building a strong organization.

those are easy words to type. it's the execution by FA that makes the difference. the best thing we can hope for is that FA is being counseled by people who know what they are doing during the process.

Didn’t Leafs fans dislike him? Honestly can’t remember what the reason was for him getting tossed
