Biggest joke of all
When the fans pay that much money to watch a product they can do whatever they want.

Don't want boos? Put on a decent team that can score and win. That's on the owner and management.

Something has to be said about the system Torts has implemented here. It's becoming the norm where we get a couple of goal lead to eventually blow it in the end.

But why not boo the entire team? I don't see why fans had to single out Lack and boo him. I guess Canucks fans don't want a goalie at all, might as well play with a empty net seeing how every Canucks goalie has got the brunt of the frustration from the fan base when really the angry should be directed towards the entire team.

Kind of reminds of the situation in Philly and how they've never had a solid number one goalie because fans go ape shit and make management make stupid goalie signings.

Which intermission? Im watching the PVR and Don Cherry is saying Luongo is being mistreated because hes too nice to people in the organization and they are taking advantage of him.

Pretty much telling Luu to leave this shitty organization called the Vancouver Canucks.

elliot - "vancouver fans treating lack like this is ridiculous, he is the future goalie here"

weeks- "the decision was a bad decision"

PJ stock - "you might lose lack because lack is going to the dressing room thinking fans dont like him, hearing 50,000 ppl booing him. How do you think your confident is as a young goaltender"

Ron -"Pj, Pj, Pj, no they're booing torts, gillis and the circumstance. Kevin Kevin how did you feel about the fans booing you in the NHL."

PJ Stock - "Ron... im telling you." "Its roberto going over telling Lack, "ive dealt with these people before, stick to your game"

Ron - "ok on the to Sedins"

I remember the year we lost in the first round to LA, Cherry was saying how Luongo should leave the city as hes being mistreated well

and hes right.
FAs must be avoiding the canucks like the plague right now.

Firing Gillis is the only way to re-brand the Canucks right now.

Before the Canucks had the whole "cup contender" status to lure players to Vancouver but with that out the window and the nonsense that's been going of late I wonder how many possible deals will fall through because players don't want to come here and subject themselves and their families to such a toxic environment.

Sedins Kesler need a better supporting cast. look at the grinders that are their line mates now. We certainly gotten 'tougher' after the Boston series...now look at this mess.

Our forwards are full of chicken shit.

You can't turn chicken shit into chicken salad.

You don't turn into chicken shit in 3 years but it happens when you trade away or not resign secondary players and not replace them: Raymond, Hodgson, Malholtra, Sammuelsson etc.

The only GM that like to do business with Gillis is Florida.

They should have played Lack on our minor team this year. Brought in a veteran backup goalie so there's no young goalie that would show Luu up.

Have the Canucks not learned from the past? It's basically Cory Schneider in the making right now.

The Heritage Classic was my first Canucks game ever and they were not booing Lack, they were Luu'ing when Lack was saving the shots. We paid $150 a ticket to see our #1 Goalie play. I don't think the management knows how much fan care about the Canucks. And when we see Luu treated like a second rate goalie, it really disappoints me as a Canucks fan.

The Sedins have always set the tone for this soft-ass team. Getting rid of them would go a long way to getting rid of that losing culture which only made the SCFs when Kesler (grit+skill) took the team on his back.

MG makes me physically sick. He's the hockey version of a self-righteous college professor who knows it all but hasn't done shit.

its also a season where burrows is doing shit all, maybe he should put some extra time in at the rink, not with the sloots. you know, like some of the other pros do. i dunno maybe i should just blame gillis for it like everyone else.

We're a mediocre team. The classic B student. The Accord with leather seats.

We're respectable, but not spectacular. Unfortunately, it's really good for business to have a team that "seems" to always be in contention.

Gillis did little to take the nux to another level. Burke and Nonis are known for some big moves and you have to wonder what they could have done to further tinker with that core. That anchor of a Luongo contract would have never been given out. Then again, Cloutier might still be your franchise goalie.
