Pretty common behind the scenes things with agents and management, but as I said, Winter is a bit of a moron.

Daniel said that they wanted to go back to Sweden cause they felt like they werent playing at a level that they should be playing at or wanted to play at.

Hey I totally agree with you. If we win the cup this year or next year I dont' care who the fuck we have to lose to get it.

But if we don't then....CODYYYYYYYYYYY :tears:


Winning a Stanley cup is #1 over any player loyalty or even future success.

I want it so badddddddddd.

Ronin 03-02-2012 06:59 PM

Don't speak ill of Trevor Linden.

You won't like me when I'm angry.

Hondaracer 03-02-2012 07:04 PM

Lindens image is completely destroyed for me, especially now that I've known a few people who work daily directly with him with his gym endeavors

He just seems like a big pussy now and it's hard to seperate the heart and soul captain and the guy consumed with staying skinny and pushing glasses

Edit* also personally if you want to keep talking about Cody = linden, I'd rather have another bertuzzi than another linden :p

Random fact:

If the Canucks win the cup this year, Cody's name will be engraved on the cup.

Carry on :lol

kristianhay 03-02-2012 07:12 PM

People have got to quit crying over CoHo. Yeah he was a great young prospect, but he's gone. It's not like he was a 50 goal scorer, and we got something back we were in dire need of. Who knows how it plays out down the road, but hindsight is 20/20. Rid yourself of the emotional attachment because he's not coming back.

That's who we have now. Embrace it.

seriously, if any of you guys blame wilson on the leafs again, i am going to explode.... it was his players that played like shit. He was doing his job right, the team let HIM down.... fucking full of shit. I am tired of coaches fired because management is desperate for some change. People like ovechkin and the leafs defence makes me absolutely SICK...... gutless performances in their games....

Watch the Leafs "system" and compare it to the Canucks. It's like comparing the intelligence of a Neanderthal to a human's.

expect to get fired when you miss the playoffs 3 seasons in a row

Gilgamesh 03-02-2012 08:53 PM

^ I really think Eakins is a better choice because he seems to be better around younger players. Or keep Wilson until leafs get a 5th overall pick and then hire eakins,-it's a deep draft. Leafs aren't going to reach finals anyways.

As for the Canucks, you obviously need to make sacrifices since nucks are a playoff bound team.

Exactly...People need to understand he's gone, and he's not the next Linden or Yzerman or any kind of that person.

Here are some "good" calder trophy winners from the past.

A 5' 10" centre who was 22 years old and had 44 points in his rookie year.

His name is Chris Drury.

A 5' 11" centre at 19 yrs old had 70 points as a rookie.

His name is Scott Gomez.

Where are these guys now?

IMO, any player in the NHL can become a good player. It takes hard work and determination. I don't give a shit if you're 10th overall first round pick. It doesn't mean you're locked to stardom.

Look at Burrows. Never drafted. Played in the ECHL. Worked his ass off. Remember that year where he can't even buy a fucking goal? Look at him now. A leader playing on one of the best line in the NHL on one of the best team. Did he complain throughout the process? Nope. I honestly hope Cody didn't complain about ice time and all. Just cause you're a 10th overall pick, you get all this shit and be treated like the hockey's Steve Francis?

ummm drury and gomez both were great players and cup winners. Cody never complained about ice-time..where do you get your sources? Cody was compared to linden because of his personality not his game.

The entire organization from top to bottom is suspect. Burke has one season left and if next season is a fail, he'll be gone as well. Imagine giving a guy a 3 year contract extension only to fire him within the next couple months. I want to hear the justification on that one.

Regardless, it should be called Toronto Maple Ducks now.
