Carol Schram: Jim Benning has few answers as the Canucks carry on, hosting the Jets The Vancouver Canucks will look to snap out of their early-season swoon when they host the Winnipeg Jets on Friday night at Rogers Arena — one day after frustrated general manager Jim Benning spoke to the media about his team's troubles.

Thanks Carol

Thanks Carol! I can’t believe Green is forcing Richardson to play with Pouty and the pylon that can’t score without 25 seconds to release his shot

Thanks Carol!

Too bad about Gorton, he would have been my choice.

At least if you put the Sedins in charge they'd probably only trade our draft picks to each other.

Thanks Carol, I feel a statement game coming on. I’m not sure what that statement will be…

6-0 Canucks, Demko goes on a shutout heater setting a new NHL record.

Aquilini will never get a qualified President or GM because he is a meddling owner. Have to hope they luck out with some AGM. Back to the Bennning strategy

Jim Benning is a far better GM, after all, he’s never been fired.

Thanks Carol

I actually liked what Gorton had done in NY. I get why he was fired, but he was fired for far less than what Benning has done.

Thank you Carol

Thanks Carol!

Gorton seems like a well respected choice, but I would love to see if they could pull Chris MacFarland out of Colorado. He went to the team in 2015 when they were terrible, and with Sakic turned them around.

Well done Carol.

Gotta win eventually right?

Thanks Carol

I would be happy if the Canucks were able to bring Gorton in, perhaps as a highly paid AGM to be promoted as soon as they finally get rid of JB?

Maurice and Green are similar offensively minded coaches. Winnipeg is doomed until they fire Maurice, and Green is a worse version of him. That Baumgartner and King have jobs still is mind blowing.

Hopefully JTM and Schmit get to fight tonight....maybe Petey will try to get invovled and "tweak" his other wrist when he falls on the ice


Until Green and JTM are gone this team is split and a wash out.

Thanks Carol.

Hopefully Kevin Dineen is being considered for the Head Coaching position.

3-2 Vancouver.

I like that idea, bring in some new blood as an assistant, consultant, adviser or whatever.

Head Coach list:

David Quinn
Claude Julien


GM list:

Basil McRae
Pat Verbeek
Dan Mckinnon
Patrik Allvin

3-2 Vancouver.

Jets came off a tough game last night. You know how Van likes to roll over for teams that on the second half of a back to back.

#Canucks lineup at morning skate, based on drills:

Pearson-Horvat-Höglander
Garland-Miller-Podkolzin
Richardinson-Pettersson-Boeser
Motte-Lammikko-Chiasson

Hughes-Hamonic
OEL-Poolman
Burroughs-Myers
Hunt-Schenn

Green thought process, the line that was the worst last game gets to stay together and everyone else has to change.

Excellent chance for the shut out for Comrie.
