Rumor: Benning has green light to make a trade and is working the phones. Trying to fix "chemistry"

[Just A Bit Outside]

Is this folgers a RD? Calling for a cup might be premature

It’s the return of Sutter.

All is solved.

Tells me Benning has had his phone disconnected.

Hes been spotted trying to wind up his iPhone...

 

[M2Beezy]

If you really insist, we'll give you Evander Kane. He'll change the chemistry.

JT Miller and a 2nd to San Jose for Evander Kane and a 4th....

Canucks be interested in Gallagher?

You want Myers going back?

Gallagher and OEL in the same offseason would be something special and set this team up to suck for the next 6 years

Like legit, what needs to change player wise in Vancouver?

 

[Oddbob]

Wouldn't all GMs have the green light to make moves that try and improve the team, or is he on thin ice with the owners and they have taken his power away?

We trade Miller, our best player for another headache? No thanks chief

"Benning has the green light do anything to save his job!"

 

[lawrence]

Frickin embarrassment……. Benning is such a joke they gms will phone about his captain. This shit will never happen when Gillis or Burke was the gm. It’s an insult to think Mike Gillis or Burke will consider trading the captain.

what a joke our team has become.

I would say change the coach first before you mess around with the roster even more. We know how tgat worked when Benning got smart and let Tanev go just to trade for schmidt and then trade him the very next year.

"Benning has the green light do anything to save his job!"

Heard its not true, because Gillis was contacted by the Canucks owner. If Benning had the green light he would can Green before the yellow light

I think he cant do anything without owners approval and it is why Green is still coaching. They want to hire the new GM so he can hire the new coach. It makes the most sense. As far as am concerned, Benning had the kiss of death when owners met up with him recently.

So many rumours not enough actually facts.

True but am pretty sure any other GM would have fired Green 5 games ago including Benning if he still had the "green light" to do anything. The writing is on the wall for Benning and his 8 year tenure with the team. Just a matter of time before he gets the boot.

They should change the coach before they change key players on this roster to clean the slate if they feel like there is some bad juju. At the very least they should consider hiring a currently unemployed coach or two with lots of experience like Tortorella or Joe Quennville etc. to provide consultation on what they see on the ice to determine their direction. They could use it as an interview process to hire their next coach as well.

Torts has already probably seen enough of this ownership group.
Joel Quenneville will not go to a market with as much scrutiny as Vancouver after he resigned in Florida for being complicit in the Beach stuff.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Miller seems cut from the Blake Wheeler cloth. I don't think many of today's kinder, gentler athletes fare well under that kind of withering glare.

Dale tallon will save you.
