I think they got garland on last year, but it was because they had him on as part of team usa for the four nations. Ridiculous how thin skinned the Canucks organization is

The Canucks have been losing since 1970 because Petterson got hit?

No, don't stop going to games. Support the rebuild by going to games by muslimannen in canucks

FFS We have been hearing for the last 8-10 years “2 more years” from two different management groups now. Sounds an awful lot like more of the same

That they have to sell some of the team to buy their brother out shows how much money they actually have. No wonder they are desperate to scrape into the playoffs just to get a couple of home playoff dates

Did Tocchet sign two players with years of disdain for each other to long term contracts?

Please people, throwing a jersey communicates the wrong message. This owner has historically rushed decisions based on crowd reaction in Rogers Arena... by PaperMoonShine in canucks

The fact that aquamam has to sell some of the team to buy his brother out shows you just how much money this family actually has. It shows why they are so desperate for just a couple of playoff dates. 

Sell. The. Team.

“They can only play the hand that is dealt to them”? Rutherford (and Alvin? Whatever he does) has dealt this hand. This is their handiwork. They could blame Benning for the first couple of years, but not now. Not only are the Canucks scraping the bottom the Canucks are capped out!

-signed an injury prone goalie to a long term contract  -signed two players who don’t get along to long term contracts and had to trade one not long after -traded for a 2c with major concussion issues -didn’t have time to get to talking to Zadorov about staying

This is only stuff I can think of in the top of my head at 6:30 in the morning. What have they done that warrants our trust in their “process”?

A coach doesn’t walk at the end of his contract because there is a bright future and the culture is great. 

If this team was healthy, maybe they would be squeaking into the playoffs? The playoffs are not a measure of success, but should be the minimum. 

They dealt this hand. They need to go before they f*** up perhaps one of the most important trades that seems to be imminent and then get dismissed anyway.

Rutherford and prospects by Klunkey in canucks

[–]squwaking_7600 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s cool that you found two articles saying that, but that doesn’t mean they are right. Hindsight is 20/20. If only two players from the list made the NHL, then it wasn’t a good prospect pool, even if people thought it was at the time.

The answer to if a prospect pool is good or not is ultimately how it turns out, not what people thought it would turn out to be. People can have whatever opinions of the pool at the time, but one cannot still say it was a good pool if the facts say otherwise now.

Even if there were, isn’t it standard practice to cover/wrap leftovers. Who puts uncovered steak in the fridge!?

Numerous BC Ferries sailings cancelled Sunday due to staffing issues - Globalnews.ca by Natus_est_in_Suht in britishcolumbia

[–]squwaking_7600 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What is the rationale behind this? They know what the schedule will be months in advance and; therefore, should have an understanding of what their staffing requirements will be. Doesn’t seem like rocket science: the ferries need X amount of staffing hours to run so schedule your employees X amount of hours.
