Good for him ... he earned it. Hopefully, this GM team will stop throwing away cap $$ on players like Halak.

Curious where the Canucks would be in the standings in Green/DimJim were gone at the start of the season

He needed to be gone before the off-season... I hated our team last year... and I do like Garland... and appreciate OEL at times...
but we were FINALLY at the last year of all those horrible contracts... just had to basically throw away this year (it's been thrown away anyway basically!) and then we were in fantastic shape with like $18+M off the books if you also don't sign Poolman and Dickinson... but nope, someone tried to save their job and make the playoffs.
I also kinda blame Horvat, his end of year comments about not staying here if we keep missing playoffs... put a lot of public pressure on management not just riding out the last year of all those horrible deals.
BUT... time heals all wounds right? Maybe the timing just wasn't right... if we hadn't kept GMJB as long as we had we maybe wouldn't have gotten Boudreau or Rutherford or Allvin... so... there's an upside to everything I think.

It would be a miracle if the GM can somehow offload Myers (NTC), OEL (NMC), Dickinson and Garland. While Garland is good, he's not at almost 5mil good.

Canucks have lots of upside, "cause there's no direction left to go except up. Okay, maybe stay the same.
I'm no longer a Canuck fan........ took everything Canucks down, except the "Heart and Soul," framed picture. I was thinking of selling the bandwagon. Then, I thought, why not rent it out? Every Tom's Dick in Harry is doing that in real estate these days. Why not the wagon, gulolol.

There are a couple of articles talking about whether this GM team will extend a 2nd year to Bruce Boudreau as coach. Apparently, Aquaman signed him as coach for 1 year with a 2nd year as option (not hired by this GM team).
Is that just click bait? If there was any more obvious conclusion, at least to me ... of course you bring him back for a year and then consider offering an extension sometime in the middle of next season if he continues to have this kind of winning percentage.

By all accounts Canucks ownership got Rutherford’s input before hiring Boudreau so it’s a bit of a fallacy to say this management had no say in his hiring.
Boudreau also has an out clause, so he may well leave to a better offer too.

Miller, Petey, Bo, Hughes, Boeser and Demko.
Petey, Bo, and Boeser been pretty shitty this year. If they don't bring their consistent A game like how the Sedins used to be. Nothing is going to change.

Uhm…
Bo has a career high for goals and Petey is just under a ppg now and playing the best hockey he ever has… how is that shitty man?
I’ll give you Boeser though, he’s been disappointing this year for sure.

Two HUGE home games against Vegas and Dallas are coming up.
The team needs to run the table in their remaining nine games.

Did this really happen here at Rogers arena? Looks like Detroit was in town. https://www.instagram.com/reel/CbSs1...d=YmMyMTA2M2Y= | |

Well, Detroit was in Rogers arena on March 17 (and the kiss cam refers to St. Patrick’s Day) and we lost 1-0, so it all adds up…
Weird, the first couple, the female looks like my manager! I don’t remember her husband looking like that guy though. Scared to ask if it’s her, lol…
