I am getting a good laugh from the freak out on Twitter.

If we didn't trade for Garland and OEL we would have had all that cap space yada yada.

Can you imagine The Chipmunk with money to spend? I mean he has brought in so far Dermott Stillman Baer.

Those of you that hate the Garland signing should not like this Mikeyev signing then they are identical. For the record I was okay with both signings.

Miller long term is not a good thing.

This new management waste just as much money as the last group.

It is like the Canucks said adios Jim Benning welcome Jim Benning jr. from seven years ago.

To me it just looks like more of what everyone hated about Benning starting all over again.

Pretty much. They seem to like his team too since they've decided to build around it

That's the truth.

In four years half the city will want Benning back forgetting the mess he left just like Gillis. Time fixes everything.

I'm starting to wish someone else bought this team. The clown in charge sucks at picking the right guys to lead this franchise and seems to be cool with just trying to re-tool forever.


I think the casuals will start to turn on ownership by the end of this season or sometime next season if they keep trying to win-now with this team and falling flat on their faces.


"Sell the team chants" would be the pipedream.

At least 4 years of "anybody could do better than this moron".

1 year of someone else.... "I wish for the last guy back"

Benning wasn't going in the right direction after 8 years. I may not be saying that if he didn't trade for Garland and OEL though.

It was time to move on from him after that trade. These guys might not be the right GM's either. Maybe the next one after these guys??

Yeah, no matter how bad this new group does, I would never wish a return to that disaster. A less disastrous disaster is still a disaster.

But it’s not there yet. Still time to correct course.

That grass looks too green and well-kept to be ours...

The Aquilini plan.

Canuck season ticket holders are idiots, if you have that much disposable income then do coke.

Realistically I think if you trade Horvat, Miller Boeser and Myers for positive returns (yes, they can all net positive returns) You get back some C and D prospects and a 1st or two. Try and get Schenn to come back 1 year and roll hughes-schenn and OEL-Bear for another bad season. OEL is better to be bought out in 2024 or after. Keep Cap and weaponize for next off season by taking on 1 year deals to give contenders cap. we can start properly building towards a competitive team by 2026, MAYBE 2025 if some younger prospects develop and some lottery luck happens.

No way…idiot! Two wrongs don’t make a right. Keep searching until you find a competent person.

I'm not really concerned when they will be a contender again, I just want a proper re-build like Burke did years ago because I have zero respect for what this organization has been doing for the last decade.
