This is from a Chicago media guy.
Wonder if he has heard this from Dickinson.


I’ve heard there’s a lot of friction in that dressing room between some of the star players and then the rest of the team,” said Cohen. “It’s real cliquey in that dressing room. The way that they’re promoting players, particularly on their social media channels, and just everything that I hear coming out of that dressing room, it seems really dysfunctional at the moment.”

- Reubenkincade

Perhaps he’s talking about the Chicago Blackhawks where they just destroyed their team from top to bottom and got rid of every good player except Patrick Kane.

No, it was in direct reference to the Canucks and how cliquey some of the players are.

I think this has been fairly obvious for a few years.
Players leaving and excelling elsewhere is also very telling.
Management had a chance to do something about it during the long off-season and chose to stand pat.

This rumor has been around for awhile, if true and player only meetings can't sort it, then management needs to step up or accept the results.

Same as the Blue Jays for you. Even though it’s thousands of miles away, in both cases, I was an impressionable 9 or 10 years old in the mid 70’s when the Flyers started a dominant two decades. My dad was a big Flyers fan as he’s from Saskatchewan.

They have a chance everyday to fix their mistakes but that would mean admitting their mistakes.

I don't think management has the desire to make any significant changes.

The first step to solving any problem, is admitting there is one. I don’t think we’re there yet.

Which were created by the previous regime. Bottom line is they need results, things won't get easier for them in this market.

I think they misplaced those finger quotation marks.

"defense" when "healthy" is "adequate"

I honestly didn't think his game would be as good as it is.
He is an incredible defenseman.

- Reubenkincade

He's top 3 in the league if not the best right now for sure in the NHL. Didn't see much of him his first full season in the AJHL but that second season the buzz really started when NHL clubs started asking about him and where they thought he might place in the draft. His second season at UMASS was equally as impressive as his last AJHL season. I remember the exact day some guy was in the Arena here talking about how Makar should be going first overall and he was getting laughed at. Not so much now lol. Kid is special.

BPA

Makes you wonder why “BPA” is usually a skilled winger…


I’d like to see BCDA

Best Center/dman available

- Nucker101


I like DFFN better.

'Draft For fucking Need'.



But BCDA is good too .

It doesn’t matter if Hughes breaks 100 points. Makar plays in 3 zones

Miller wanted to be a center. Miller calling out management. Miller wanting an extension. Miller not named by Allvin in core players.
