Former Canucks: Players & Management (Willie Desjardins fired by Kings, COO Victor De Bonis to SEA)

[M2Beezy]

This has become a very confusing thread at one point people are arguing Benning needs to be fired, then a couple of posts on hazing in the OHL, then hearing Mike Gillis is pushing hard for Seattle.

Just dont jump ship Grubster

Just dont jump ship Grubster

is it even jumping ship when this team has given nothing worthy of cheering for during bennings whole tenure

We tried throwing you off the ship but you keep coming back.

Anyone else finding it very funny that Beagle has been replaced nicely by 650k Nic Dowd in Washington?

everyone with an important role in Canucks staff is trash

oh but don't worry, when the Caps win the cup again, Dowd will get a fat 4 year deal too

 

[vanuck]

Please let this happen. Stick it right in Aquilini's face.

Beagles value was at an all time high.

Not the time for a rebuliding franchise to invest inna 4th line center.

Why is it always a Kyle?

I don't find it funny I find that it went as expected. 10-12 minute a night players don't get paid a lot. Or shouldn't.

Schaller's value was at an all time high.

Not the time for a rebuliding franchise to invest inna 4th line winger.

(different player but equally applicable comment)

Wonder if Linden will pop up in another organization?

well it won’t be seattle that’s for fffffing sur

2 points in 3 games for Leipsic. Probably his last shot to produce in the NHL, if he doesn’t he’s likely headed over to Europe. I seem to remember him being over a point per game in his first little stint with us before he fell off.

He started off hot with us too last year. He will have a solid 10 games and then go back to his normal million mile skates for nothing

i heard that story but a little differently.

Heard it was Kesler after acting like a fool at a party and being told to leave and not wanting to. Apparently Bieksa had to go with him to get him to leave and when Kes/Kass went ballistic getting aggressive Bieksa dropped him in the elevator and threw him in a cab telling him to sleep it off.

Makes more sense it was Kassian.....i guess we can see why they had to pay to get him out.....he was a complete trainwreck.

Love Bieksa interviews

They could have just put him on waivers for the purpose of buyout they didn’t need to give up a pick

We had him. Everybody here hated him. Ah Canuck fans...
