but this is coming from a guy (Chef) who pee’d his pant in Las Vegas. I also adore Doc. Chef on the other hand loves Chucky Bukowski, reminds me of the angry drunks who ran tabs and cashed cheques at my old man’s bar.

Counterpoints which are balancing out some extreme narratives.

Carry on Jello, says I.

It’s all way too weird. The criticisms coming from management over Petey’s commitment level has really ramped up lately since Paolo’s exit.
This is a reach man.

His exit is more likely to do with something like him being sued for 641K by a Capital Corp. for a failed 21M dollar real-estate deal in LA. Shady business is always the reason for these things. Not pouty players who are paid too much.
Hey now… be careful putting up logical explainations for things that go against the negative emotion that the media love to pander.

Side note: Did you know that sex and negative posts get the most attention and comments on the internet??

Canucks Army published excerpts from Rutherford's interview with Stephen Brunt. Some interesting tidbits.

Had to chuckle when Rutherford recounted how Frankie flew down to Carolina to talk with him. Rutherford's wife makes up a charcuterie board, Frankie says he's not hungry, then polishes it off five hours later. I guess a paisan can't resist a platter of cured meats. :lol:

The mortadella must’ve been tormenting him until he broke down. Probably asked him how much the mortadella was.

1 less distraction.

D core looks pretty good TBH. I would be happy with the group they come back with no more changes.

Hughes - Hronek
M.Petey - Myers
(Forbort) - E.Petey
Willander - Mancini

Looks like good depth to me as well (glad to have Forbort back, if they can sign him).

Just don’t look at our top 6 forward group. It’s as sad as it gets.

Lots of time here, no doubt a tough fix - but doable. Lets wait until Oct., before judging here.

Makes him more valuable as a trade asset, as it eliminates the NCAA flight-risk. ;)

Either way, this is good news. God knows we've been starving for some lately.

Looks to me that they met half-way.
