That's a good point, it's not Green's fault he's got an absolutely horrendous D to work with (and as I've said before, Demko's numbers would be WAY better if he was playing with a normal defense, he's not a bad goalie at all). Benning though has to go, and like you said, how many more times do the moves he makes need to be proved as epic fails before he gets the boot? Don't have any idea why he's still around. (Sorry about the vid, don't know why it's not working, I just posted the link instead)

If he's not fired this offseason or by the winter break god help that team as how long before Petey or Hughes go yeah I want out. Or even Boeser/Horvat.

As remember this comment Petey made before signing

Spoke to Elias Pettersson (in Swedish) today about his negotiations with the #Canucks (among other things). Here's a translation of what he had to say.Original source: https://t.co/zy8WQloLax pic.twitter.com/88Y7oy8WWd

Cause if their not careful we could see Eichel 2.0

Fire green. He’s lost the room. He’s better off coaching our farm team but we need someone with nhl experience. Yes our d core isn’t great but our forward group should be producing like a top 10 team with all that talent.


Hoglander played 10 minutes tonight, was a +2 and had two goals and an assist

Green has gotta go if he’s going to sit out best player right now

Benning has been in the front office for eight seasons now and his teams have only made the playoffs once (twice if you include the weird bubble playoffs).

Willie Desjardins 109-110-27
Travis Green 130-139-34

And you want him to hire another one???
Fire Benning first, get a new GM. Have a lame duck coach in Green this year and find a new one next year.

That seems like a smart idea

Better do it quick as next offseason his Nephew is available

Aquilini should also be gone along with Benning as he has not really impressed all that much either.

Nah. Fire Benning and get a new head coach. Wait a minute, no. Get rid of Aquaman first cause he is quite literally sinking the team. Get rid of everyone except for Ian Clark Brad Shaw and the Sedins

At this point, the Sedins should either take over coaching and gm position, or straight up come out of retirement and drag this team of the whole they dug

I would think Nucks fans want Benning out also so no point in having him fire Green and hire Boudreau, Julien or whoever else is out there. New GM’s like their own coaches so better off getting Benning out first IMO

How are you gonna fire the owner lol

(if you find out please for the love of god let me know so I can fire Melnyk, and then forward it to Sabres fans because I pity them)

They need to clean house, GM and coach IMO. But start with Benning.

Canucks Sports & Entertainment could request Aqulini step back from being the president and focus on his company the Aquilini Investment Group. Which would allow for them to appoint someone better suited for the job. So while not a firing more like a passing on the torch so to speak.

A good example is seen in Buffalo as ifwe look at the Buffalo Bills the Pegula's let management run the team and dont interfere anymore which is resulting in significant improvements. Dont know why they dont do the same with the sabers but I guess they know better.

Aquilini should do the same thing for Vancouver as eventually this is gonna get to buffalo levels of bad where people wont want to go to games and 1 by 1 their stars are either gonna ask to be traded or leave via FA. Now to start on the right path fire Benning

Yeah, good luck telling him that. Rule #1 is you don't piss off the boss, and he's EVERYONE'S boss. If he doesn't do it of his own volition it ain't happening.

No matter how much the owner likes Benning, it is impossible for Benning not to be fired if he misses the playoffs this year. He specifically made moves so that the Canucks can win now while sacrificing the future, and if they miss in their win-now year then this team is in deep ****.

Random (but not hypothetical) question: How long do you give a member of your fantasy league to accept or decline a trade before cancelling?

Doesn’t work

Yeah, I know, don't know why YT is being so frustrating with this one. I think it's the underscore/dash in the video ID that throws the embedded link off. Well, here's the link anyway (it's Demko actively getting stripped by his own defenseman to give Marchessault his 2nd goal of the game, and seal a win for the Knights): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6ts-Fg_qqg

Well, I’d say 1-2 days, i mean, if they’re not active, I’m not sure why you’d bother and if they haven’t accepted after that time, i doubt they will

So i made an AGM with the list of every Habs player with an injury so far https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/2895123

PS: It’s a long list

He certainly seems to be active, but I'm not sure if he's A) not taking the deal but hasn't pressed "Decline", B) just hesitating on the deal, or C) hasn't seen it (which would be weird, it's been 12 hours since I proposed the trade, you would think he'd have checked his email by now). It's Taylor Hall (from me) for Tuevo Teravinen, Hall has been a letdown and doesn't look much like his 2nd-half self from last year (no Krejci seems to be playing a role in that), whereas Teravinen racks up a ton of SOG and is having a sneaky good year. (Hopefully this guy doesn't read CF.)

The Canucks
Hot Since 1970!

[edit - insert tire fire]

Beauty!

That's also the Habs right now due to everyone having an injury and our players missing their linemates

Not to pile on, but it's not going to get any prettier with a Monetembeault-Primeau tandem

Petry pushed him from behind in the small of the back. Larkin would never have collided with Allen if not for that.

I don’t think the Sharks ever consider that trade haha

Yep, we all know that. Not sure why we called up Primeau, seems like a great way to ruin another prospect by throwing him to the wolves, I'd have rather seen McNiven get called up
