Quoting: Juiceman
You from the future huh? You think they are going to sell their future for a 3 month rental?
No but I do work around the team and I know it's a real **** show.
You think Tocchet calling out ownership in the media this week was a slip up?
You think Petty saying that he won't sign till he knows the team can compete is normal?
The Canucks are in a real make or break year.
Wanna know the hard truth that no Canucks fans will admit, the Canucks are a pathetic joke of an organization. Nobody wants to be here anymore. Miller was trying to force his way out last year Horvat used the media to push out.
Did you know the Canucks don't even have a practice facility? The damn Coyotes have one but the Canucks don't so when they can't use Rogers Arena which has been all summer due to renovations and is going to be most nights in October cause of shows, they can't practice without going to Abbotsford or renting ice like a bunch of teenagers.
The organization is a joke. Feel free to save this and we can chat in a year. There is a reasons Benning made the Horrible OEL trade. Ownership is obsessed with winning NOW. With Petty threatening to leave if they don't compete this year ownership will either back down and decide to rebuild or go all in and do a trade as stupid as the OEL deal to get a short term boost.
If you don't think this is what the Leafs are asking for then you are insane. Boeser is essentially a cap dump at $6.5M. Canucks shopped hard last year and even Friedman reported nobody would give them a 2nd even with retention. 1st, 1st and 2nd for an 87 points player to come be your #1 winger isn't an overpay by any means. 3rd line centers regularly get a 1st+ even as pending UFAs. So adding in the contract dump this is the type of deal the Canucks are looking at if they want to do business.
Again cry all you want, I'm suremy peaks inside give me a different view from the normal fan but this organization is completely messed up and has zero chance of being functional anytime soon, players know it.
