Jesus F Christ

Jim Benning is a f***ing idiot.

 

[RussianRacket]

GO CANUCKS GO!!!

 

[4Twenty]

He had 3 goals in the bubble

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Not that I expected a terrific return if the Canucks moved on from Gaudette, but man that is an underwhelming stat sheet when one considers Gaudette scored at a 40+ point pace last year.

 

[canuckking1]

Makes no sense!

Unless Benning is shipping Gaudette out for being patient zero? You could put him on waivers and get similar results

 

[604]

Traded due to Covid stupidity?

 

[The Vasili Jerry]

...uhhhhh

 

[Peen]

I don’t understand - they don’t want to make rental trades for the human aspect but the human aspect doesn’t matter here? Like what?

 

[Breakers]

For Crying out loud

Can we get a pick JUST ONCE.

JUST ONE F'N TIME.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

This is actually horrid

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Also wonder if the smoke around Gaudette being patient zero on the Canucks for the recent outbreak made them want to move on.

 

[FroshaugFan2]

Buy high sell low!

Just an classic Benning trade. Love to see it.

 

[Jay Cee]

Lol.

 

[VanCanFanEDM]

Why even bother making this type of deal?

 

[Peter Griffin]

Why?

 

[Vector]

He's also not even big 5'11 188 lbs. Gave away Gaudette so they don't have to pay him next year and, my suspicion, get rid of him for his role in the outbreak.

 

[Bubbles]

Another age-gap player, instead of a pick.

I'm done guys. No more games for me until Benning is fired.

He's a god damn f***ing winger and our stupid ass coach has tried to form him as a 3rd line C for the duration of his pro-hockey career. Chicago will use him accordingly because they are a decent organization.

 

[Bonham]

Talk about selling low.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Not that I expected a terrific return if the Canucks moved on from Gaudette, but man that is an underwhelming stat sheet when one considers Gaudette scored at a 40+ point pace last year.

Why even bother moving him then is my question.

Very human

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Don’t really know much about Highmore..Another Brendan Gaunce..?

 

[MS]

This will be a terrible trade for this team but the *asterisk here is that I would guess that Gaudette is being fired into the sun for causing the COVID outbreak.

Highmore is fast and I'm guessing they're going for another Tyler Motte here although Highmore is 3 years older than Motte when we acquired him and less dynamic than Motte.

Gaudette will break out when put at wing with good players.
