This fanbase’s stupidity and impatience knows no bounds

Your youth and lack of life experience is showing brightly here. For those of us that’ve followed the team for the better part of five decades, without a Stanley Cup, from years of mismanagement, followed by the current seven years of futility, while spending to the cap, and, Jim Benning saying before each season he expects the team to be playoff competitive.

Now....he says he needs two more years, so nine years to be competitive, seriously, what the honest fuck?

Despite brief periods of success for the franchise, they’ve been mismanaged for most of their existence, which breeds impatience, anger and apathy. This didn’t just happen overnight.

Many of us have been saying the same thing for years but there’s a number of Canuck fans that are very comfortable with mediocrity. It’s like a warm blanket. It’s comfortable and familiar.

It's great having band wagon fans telling lifelong fans how to be a proper fan. Only Karen from Red Deer believes Nucker's childish charade.

If that was true the franchise would be in Toledo Ohio by now.

Ruby is a moron, he doesn’t know anything.

Who do you like Hughes or Clarke to pick at 9-10?

I would prefer not to pick another soft offensive defensemen for the team.

If I had a choice, someone else, if I didn't have a choice, Clarke because at least he plays the right side.

Like Clarke on the right side as well. But if Luke Hughes falls to us it's a no brainer.

Is it really a no brainer if it's something the team just doesn't need at all. It's probably a trade down moment and you have then pissed off Quinn.

lol true. I'd be ok with a centre as well. But a big mobile RHD would be nice.

Does JB kick tires on a Seth Jones trade or join the bidding in free agency?

Seth Jones now wants out of Columbus.

Feel bad for the organization, they try hard to make things work but just no one wants to stay there.

There are probably 3 RHD next season that will be better than any of the RHD in this draft.

Canucks are always in the wrong years for their needs and what's available in the draft.

There shouldn't even be NHL Hockey there. Like ARZ, FLA, CLB, CAR...league should contract or move those clubs to Hockey markets.

I wouldn’t worry, they’ll be getting a high pick next year too.
