Canucks are fucked either way with Benning as GM. Best to demote him as head scout

Canucks are gonna be so desperate and sign somebody max contract and eventually buying him out cause they no longer having fun playing hockey

It's not JB that is the problem.
The problem is the club wants to win NOW. It is quite obvious that the team should have been in a rebuild phase a few years ago but they didn't and every year are trying to retool while trying to remain competitive.

It does appear Aqua man isn't giving the club that much room to play with in terms of loosing and getting the better draft picks and trying to restock the shelves.

I wonder if Seth Griffith will go through waivers unclaimed.
Canucks should give him a chance since he did well playing with Bo Ho in London.

I'd like to hear JB's reasoning if that was the case given Griffith was a JB draft pick when JB was still with the Bruins.

^exactly I have no idea wtf this guy is thinking I mean the only reasoning I could think of was they need to give guys like skille, chaput, dorsett more ice time so they can "score" fuck give me a break. Put Griffith with bo and let them work their magic but no team is doing so well right now with scoring and winning that they thought they wouldn't give another young guy a chance...

It seems as though we have the perfect storm brewing within the Canucks organization. An ownership group that is intent on meddling in hockey operations. A first-time general manager who has clearly made some mistakes as to the management of his hockey team. A first-time coach who has also made mistakes in the handling of the on-ice product. Essentially a 3-tiered shit storm with no end in sight! That being said, there are many saying that the firing of WD is imminent and that Doug Jarvis would takeover on an interim basis should that happen.

Hard to say. Larkin was passed by quite a few teams before being drafted 15th by the Wings.

I am curious to see what would happen if they drop the ticket prices so low that the whole arena is packed. Mabye we can get some actual energy in the building.

I think it's fair to say Larkin would've been an off-the-board pick at #6.

Here are the 2014 top 15 picks and their pre-draft breakdowns from 13 different scouting sources:

Ekblad: Low - 1, High - 3, Average - 1.62, Median - 1
Reinhart: Low - 1, High - 4, Average - 2.23, Median - 2
Draisaitl: Low - 3, High - 7, Average - 4.69, Median - 4
Bennett: Low - 1, High - 4, Average - 2.31, Median - 2
Dal Colle: Low - 3, High - 8, Average - 5.62, Median - 5
Virtanen: Low - 6, High - 43, Average - 12.08, Median - 10
Fleury: Low - 7, High - 12, Average - 9.46, Median - 10
Nylander: Low - 3, High - 10, Average - 6.85, Median - 7
Ehlers: Low - 4, High - 16, Average - 7.77, Median - 8
Ritchie: Low - 5, High - 18, Average - 8.92, Median - 8
Fiala: Low - 6, High - 22, Average - 14.38, Median - 14
Perlini: Low - 9, High - 20, Average - 12.15, Median - 12
Vrana: Low - 13, High - 30, Average - 21, Median - 21
Honka: Low - 13, High - 34, Average - 22.15, Median - 20
Larkin: Low - 9, High - 26, Average - 16.38, Median - 15

Nylander was the consensus BPA based on pre-draft scouting reports available to the public.

Trade Eriksson. We signed a 30 goal scorer a year and he has 1 goal so far.

The season is 20% over. Eriksson will be good for 5 goals this year...

Not even a team trying to reach the cap floor would take on that contract
