Bump - just kidding.

It may be difficult but I still say TO is not done, FA made 40/42 saves/shots, if it was not for him then the Laughs would of been blown out again.

I just would of preferred to see TO gone in 4, that would be great for Canada.

Hey I agree with the choice. Blobbee as usual was just trying to incite another fight, but nobody would take the bait. Brilliant non-response from the Benning Genius, 1-2 year Crew.

I challenge you to find a single one!


You're so full of shit your posts are brown!! :lol:

It’s in the thread that a Mod locked Mr Grimace
That post was after the 2013 season, not 2012.

Yes I do understand that 2013 is technically after 2012 but after the 2013 season where we got bounced two years in a row in the same round by Cali teams it was pretty evident some changes were on the way.

There weren't many thinking full rebuild after the 2012 season. More tweaks and chalking up the early playoff exit to a Stanley Cup hangover.

You did call for a mini-rebuild in 2012, so props for that:

The front end of this machine needs a mini rebuild and no fucking bondo please. I could see Stevie Y wanting to throw in a contract ( Ryan Malone.... no problem with him ) while maybe Tallon and Gillis have a side deal where he finally gets to eat the bad contract.
That was in the "Luongo will waive NTC if asked to" thread.

Yeah whatevs. The way Doc goes on, one would think I have never supported rebuilding the team in any shape or form.

Please note in two of my Blob quotes from the archives (from 2014!) you'll find the phrase "mini rebuild".

(I bolded it both times)

So yes, in 2013 the Blob was one of the many calling for a mini rebuild… and he was still doing so in 2014!

But wait... is a "mini rebuild" the same thing as a "rebuild on the fly"?

Oh I think it is! :mrgreen:

This is why the Blob was so happy when Lord Benning came along right about then talking “rebuild on the fly".

He originally called Lord Benning "his hero" (or words to that effect).

But soon afterwards of course, the pain of a rebuild drove him completely insane...

I called for a rebuild in 2012 tbqh:lol:

Well tbqh I have hardly been around the last two days (coupla minutes per day).

And when I have been around, this is the only thread on which I've clicked...

Quite right Corn... hey Blob, how many times have I asked you to stop bumping ancient threads?? :scowl:

Why oh why didn't you just copy/paste that quote into this thread, after all quotes come with links now.

“Gutting it from tip to tail” is not a mini rebuild Mr Grimace

I hated Jim Benning as a player. I dislike him as a manager. I guess he is my hero. Sure, makes a ton of sense. :lol:

I have given him credit for some good draft picks and ripped him for some of his trades and contracts. I ripped him for picking Juolevi over Tkachuk. I am a fan of the Canucks. The current GM has done a better job over his last 16 months. He made of lot of mistakes previous to that.

Bubbles hates it when Jimbro trades 4th and 5th round picks for vets.
