Are you trying to have Buttman use a castrated Cox to Greek Nick?

So the fiasco that was is finally over and it sure seems that Gillis is getting the NDP treatment across the board for his handling of the drama. From media Columnists to armchair pundits alike he's taking the blame for the conditions of the NHL CBA and aparamtly the state of global economics. Though thankfully around here its much more level headed.

Gillis seems to be taking it in the rear over the length of time it's taken to resolve things but really I don't see how he could have handled things differently.

Other than not offering the contract in the first place of course
And maybe firing AV in 2010 before he could start Schneider in game three when he was not the starter and the team was not losing due to goaltending.

(There is a reason that you always stick with your starter and it was luongo's net and team until that point. )

However the die was cast with the cap dodge and it seems it was only a matter if time before buttplug was going to screw over Vancouver and make an example of Gillis and by extension NYI and Tampa for their own cap evasions.

The timing of the CBA And the pressure created by the optics of having Schneider usurp luongo in LA combined to squeeze Gillis into a corner to make sure no other GM was going to ride to the rescue unless Gillis was. Willing to give the farm away.

So what's a poor Irishman to do?

I guess the moral of the story for GMs and owners alike is dont fuck with Gary

Royaldude,

You're the man and everything and as much as I rib you on here, you know there's much man love behind those ribs.

Having said that, I seriously hope you're not this negative in real life.......and that much of what you say on here is trolling for trolling sake.

I don't remember you being this negative on Canuckscentral, or even the rival.com days.

Even in the game day threads, the only time you ever post on there is when the Canucks lose, or are losing.

What gives?

I dunno......

There is something Boothian Biblical, genetic, birth defect about that statement that even I can quite grasp. But then the statement came from the jaw bone of an ass.

he is a players agent...not a G.M...Gillis.


A post on the previous page speaks about the lack of goal production... sooo...here we are, facing the exact same shite. Me thinks that Dogsalmon summed Gillis up last year. I really don't beleive Gillis has the insight about the 'mechanics' of hockey as much as people tend to give him credit for.
