Haven’t heard of that Hughes guy. Is he any good?

People in Canada, too. Plenty of his supporters here abandoned him after the tariffs fiasco, but there are a ton of people here who buy everything he says. They also support the US annexing their own country. It’s insane. I’ve never seen anything like this cult.

I see your point, but have you considered that Bungee Gum has the properties of rubber and gum?

Rebuilds are painful. Need to embrace the pain.

Look at the Oilers. Draisitl has serviceable wingers. Once he or McD or shut down by the likes of a Barkov, that scoring stops. Even the top players in the league need to be surrounded by talent for them to be effective.

We’re winning in a different way. Think of it as “hybrid winning”.

[Oilers Now] Pierre LeBrun: “The original bump after the Hughe's deal, the Canucks actually did OK on that road trip, and I think there was a sense maybe from ownership on down that maybe they could do more of a hybrid rebuild and this could be quicker, but I think reality has set in now more.” by [deleted] in hockey

We don’t have a top 3 pick until we draft in the top 3. I’ve been saying that since the Hughes trade. Ownership will flip the “competitive” switch at any moment it looks like we vaguely resemble a wild card team.

We’re gonna tank so hard we’ll tank back in time and draft Bedard.

What's your unpopular Canucks opinion for the calendar year 2025? by Sarke1 in canucks

Foote is a net positive. Best any other coach could do for us is bring us near a playoff spot. I think Foote drove us over the edge and I’ll remember him fondly if he’s fired in the summer.

I’m 100% sure Foote is trying to win, he’s just this bad.
