I'm still hoping they realize/can trade JTM this TDL.

There were a few of us hitting that drum last TDL when the return was probably higher... but getting some picks/prospects and the cap room going forward is important

He will cost more than 1 asset, tooooo dump.
- Reubenkincade


Why? Because he’s having a bad start now? That or the contract isn’t an anvil. There will be a team willing to part with some future assets. The Canucks wanted proven players which was the sticky point for trading. But now Ruthford is talking rebuilding and that changes the equation.

Yup. Another 6 or 7 years, no rush., patience is the key.
- Reubenkincade


If that’s the plan then everyone should be traded now. Complete fire-sale.

Then we can all debate if the draft picks are good enough. Thus extend the rebuild even more years.

Patience lol, has been exhausted. Look at how the season has been written off after a week.

Being a fan of the Canucks for 52 seasons, sure has been a struggle.
As much as I want my team to win, I have zero confidence in this group, to do that.
Maybe I am an old-school type, but your stars still have to be somewhat aggressive, not pansies like this team plays like.
Also, I don't think analytics are working, as they have very little impact on the game.

- Reubenkincade


This team sucks in every category, the old school people hate them because they’re soft and can’t defend, the nerds hate them because they suck at winning the scoring chance battle pretty much every night.

Demko will get hot eventually and we’ll get some slurpers thumping their chests again

Those 2 factors probably go hand in hand.

The way they’ve played to start the season, they’re untradable. It’s going to probably cost a first rounder and/or salary retention to dump a guy like Boeser. Miller is 100% untradeable with that contract in tow.

John Shorthouse bless his heart … the last 5 minutes he just rattles off excuse after excuse trying to find some light at end of tunnel but you can tell his heart is hurting.

It was actually John Garrett present on after hours.

Sounds like an undervalue reaction. They are playing like sh!t doesn’t mean they are always going to be that way and especially on another team not struggling.

But if you’re right then no choice but to keep them. Sell the players playing well to get the rebuild. That seems to be the logic.

Apparently, someone didn't like being shown up on national TV. A bit of a fight in the dressing room between the cliques.

Well whatever it takes to light a fire under these guys. Maybe stop how they often disappear in 3rd periods.

“We may very well be in a rebuild in the direction we’re going. Ideally, we’d like to transition this team on the fly.”

So it's a re-build now? This group is all over the map, clearly there's no plan.

Demko’s gotta stop those. Too many stoppable pucks getting through him.

Said before he looks slower and unsure.

It’s really just more of the same poop and excuses we’ve been subject to for most of the franchise’s existence. Only for about a five year period, 2008-2012, has the team been truly championship caliber. And even then they didn’t manage to win a Cup.

The team looks awful! No getting around that. Right now there’s hockey, playoff baseball, football and even basketball, if that’s your thing, it’s a great time to be a sports fan as there’s a lot of options out there and beer to be consumed.
