Ya, thanks for the reminder. Can always count on you to bring us good news.

Hopefully they can recoup some of the losses when trading Garland, this off-season.

Between Garland & Miller, they should get some good prospects and some picks back.

Hopefully.
Not expecting much of a return for Brock though.

You’re welcome. Just trying to put a positive spin of Benning’s reign as leader of the Migjty Canuck Fraternity. Long live Jim!

His legacy will be around for a long time, after the buyouts of Richardinson and Poolman.
That will be 6 years of dead contract space.

Thanks Jim.

Yet some still think he’s built a good team. That trade with Arizona was a last ditched effort to save his job.
All GM’s make mistakes, they’re like crows. They see something shiny and have to have it.

I think OEL will be better next year, coming to a new team with different systems takes some time.

Recap from the most knowledgeable people not even remotely associated with hockey in any way shape or form.

Negatives
OEL - anchor contract, overrated.
Hughes - terrible at defence, needs to be traded.
Myers - chaos, not worth his salary.
Poolman - isn't even NHL calibre.
Hunt - AHL player, #9 D overall.
Dermott - could have been had for sweet (frank) all, rainbow tape on stick, wasted 3rd.
Keeper - AHL, diverse signing, a few here don't like diversity.
Miller - wants 8-9 mil a season, to pricey trade for 1st & 3rd.
Pettersson - can't stay on his feet, pouts too much, trade him.
Boeser - slow, not worth qualifying, let him walk.
Horvat - beta, not Captain material, never challenged Petey for injuring BB.
Garland - bust, not producing how posters expect, try to get a 3rd for him.
Richardson - wasted waiver pick up, could of had so and so instead.
Dickinson - another wasted choice by Benning.
Highmore - see Dickinson above.
Chiasson - should never have been chosen at training camp.

Positives
Demko - stellar #1, need to keep him, at least until the fans run him out also.
Schenn - good value for contract.
Pearson - tough on the boards, another good contract.

Agreed with most of this. Peopled say Canucks fans get what they deserve, but this is pretty realistic, homer glasses finally off.

Forgot about him, (frank), he would make the positive side so far, next season I'm not so sure.
