Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
oh yah. And everyone can thank Hughes for that. If Hughes was about the money and wanted to stay and live the good old life and play hockey and not care about winning a cup he would stay. And the Canucks would be another 10 years of being in the mushy middle again. But Hughes being a hockey guy and knew this roster wasn't going anywhere.
Which forced Aquaman and management back into a corner with the only options to rebuild.
From a financial standpoint, I don't think Aquaman wants to pay for another fired coach. From a tanking standpoint, it makes more sense to keep him around if things are this bad. I honestly wonder if this was part of the plan all along and to bring Manny up from Abby after his 2-year contract is up.
I don't think I can handle another year of Foote. Too many remnants of the old regime. He was Hughes' hire.
I say finish the season and then bring Manny in for the next year. There's no guarantee he won't get poached by another team, so it makes no sense to wait for his contract in the AHL to finish. Manny will be good for all the kids' development.
Anytime info comes from Seravalli, especially in regards to the Canucks, I'd take it with a massive grain of salt. If Petey wants to go, I don't blame him. I'd also wish him the best of luck in another city.
They literally threatened to trade EP to carolina to get him to re-sign lol. I don't think he would waive to go to carolina.
And besides, what does carolina have that we want? They'll send Kotkaniemi back the other way, possibly Nadeau, and some late first round picks? Then we'll have a C lineup of Rossi, Kotkaniemi, and Raty with the potential addition of McKenna/Stenberg. That's a great way to hamper the development of a McKenna/Stenberg with that C depth.
Carolina is always competitive in a quiet market ... might be a good life. Whether they have any players that would help ... that's up to the GM's to sort out.
Honestly, hindsight is 20-20 but they should have traded his ass to Carolina before NTC kicked in.

There has to be some sort of rule to review such atrocious calls..... I really think they should allow teams to challenge ONE penalty per game. A simple video review on a fucking ipad would have reversed this call. Would have taken what, 2 mins total?
ya, after the coach called out all the Veteran players. There is a culture problem here, and they gotta clean house. Foote said its been going on for a few years here.

A lot of players showed their frustrations but the king of open temper tantrums was for sure JT
