Basing a decision whether to save your franchise entirely on the outcome of an individual regular season overtime game is so dumb that it's exactly what I expect Aquilini to do.I've lost hope that Benning gets fired this season or offseason after that win.
It's not worth it at all. Who cares if they're pissed off, really. They have a young forward thinking GM, a world class coach, great young players mixed with phenomenal vets and a real shot at going far this season.Aaaah whatever it was the Leafs I'm disappointed we added 2 points against the tank but worth it that Leafs fans freaking out. Never watched but I guess Jim Hughson gave it to the Leafs enough to piss their fans off.
I'm taking the silver lining here I'm fully aboard Team Tank.It's not worth it at all. Who cares if they're pissed off, really. They have a young forward thinking GM, a world class coach, great young players mixed with phenomenal vets and a real shot at going far this season.
Meanwhile, we're stuck in this bottomless pit of mediocrity at best with no end in sight for this regime.
'Moral victories' are not worth it when your organization is suffering.
It is. That's why I'm saying it's so important. Aquilini has always reacted to negative press from fans, and a loss against Toronto following a terrible loss against Las Vegas would have increased the fan pressure against his organization.Basing a decision whether to save your franchise entirely on the outcome of an individual regular season overtime game is so dumb that it's exactly what I expect Aquilini to do.
I honestly hope we DON'T win the lottery as long as it means it reflects well on Benning.Just have to hope we get lucky in the lottery and move up....
As far as I'm concerned Benning should not be at the draft or doing any UFA or trades next season..he should have been let go long ago..I honestly hope we DON'T win the lottery as long as it means it reflects well on Benning.
Getting rid of him is the #1 priority. Nothing else matters.
I will trade Jack Hughes/Kakko for an increased shot at him being fired within the next 2 years.
He has been rewarded enough for failure.
Seems likelyJust have to hope we get lucky in the lottery and move up....
can't lose them all. 2 losses 1 win, 2 losses 1 win. that'll get us to 6th I hope, I can't see us doing much better than that. Currently in a tie for 7-8-9.
I've followed this team for 25 years. I've wanted nothing more but to win the lottery for the large majority of those 25 years.As far as I'm concerned Benning should not be at the draft or doing any UFA or trades next season..he should have been let go long ago..
They will. Canucks won’tOilers better show up tomorrow
