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

[Motte and Bailey]

Ah yeah, now lets move forward 5 days...

That’s not a dirty play. I agree with Kypreos that the glove shouldn’t have been there. What else could he do?

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

Unrestricted free agent Shawn Matthias tweeted Carcillo's series of posts, saying his experience as a rookie on the OHL's Belleville Bulls left him "an angry confused young man" until he joined the NHL's Winnipeg Jets, where he said head coach Paul Maurice and other members of the organization helped him overcome his trauma.

Matthias did not immediately respond to an interview request from The Canadian Press. Maurice declined comment.

Guessing he’s referring to Josh Sands.

Very disheartening to hear this issue appears to have been (hopefully past tense) such a systematic issue throughout the CHL.

The OHL is in very big trouble...

in an podcast with the cbc, carcillo mentions that the same psycho who created the toxic culture in sarnia also created it in belleville, where shawn matthias had it bad. there is not a player who played on both carcillo's and matthias' team.

but as i just googled josh sands, i found that there is one guy who played on wellwood/sands' team and later carcillo's—

carcillo also said something like, i don't want to blow up anybody's life. some of these guys are still grinding away in the minor leagues. and here he is—

Spoiler

Munce said a Sting teammate approached his dressing stall and told the six-foot, 150-pound puck-stopper to bend over his knee. He spanked Munce "like a kid" and then beat him and other teammates with a sawed-off paddle.

Munce added he was beaten with the same paddle at the rookie party because he wasn't drinking alcohol, and spent the remainder of the night hiding from the veteran players behind a couch.

f***.

and to bring this back to a former canucks subject, paul maurice helping matthias through his trauma is a result of team mental health initiatives initiated in honour of rick rypien.

Nice detective work. That edit is something else.

Good on Paul Maurice and the Jets for helping. Craig Heisinger is also one of the kindest people in the sport and was in Rypien’s corner in a big way. Have to think he’d have a big influence on the culture there.

 

[Zombotron]

That edit came from Stratford, Ontario, by the way.

EDIT:

 

[DL44]

Looked up Cole Cassels cuz of reasons...

He's in the DEL with 11pts in 24gms..
League also has the likes of Stajan, Alex Friesen, Genoway, Adam Luke in it...
League leader is Matsumoto ((Flyers 2006 draft pick).. 31 pts in 24gms)

He's 4th on team scoring.. Good on him!

Just a random update.. carry on....

Still can't believe Matt Stajan scored the GWG in Game 6 2015.

Newbury probably feels like complete shit for what he did, and rightfully so, but the real blame lies with that disgusting excuse for a head coach.

A lot of victims end up becoming predators themselves.

Obviously doesn't excuse it, but it's a cycle. The problem is when nobody steps in to stop the cycle when they have the opportunity to do so.

 

[Fire Benning]

 

[M2Beezy]

Now THAT would be crazy

 

[Rowlet]

please please please hire Gillis, I might even have to switch teams

 

[geebaan]

If Gillis gets hired their, they win a cup before Benning guaranteed

 

[PecaFan]

If Gillis gets hired their, they win a cup before Benning guaranteed

That's a sure bet, because Benning is never winning anything.

I heard he won the $1mil 50/50

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

I heard he won the $1mil 50/50

He traded the ticket for $250 000...... and threw in a second rounder.

 

[M2Beezy]

Hope you and other weeny Canucks fans leave our team and join some expansion team fans, and then we win the Cup just so youd feel like COMPLETE backstabbing weenys

take a nap son, I've been following this team since before you were born

Benning did win a cup in 2011, remember?

In any case, I doubt Benning will last when Seattle win's their first cup.

 

[Grub]

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.
