This hockey is way too fast and mean for this powderpuff team in Vancouver as its currently constucted.

Definitely. The way Twerpchinko and Faska were hitting to injure the Jets tonight...just imagine that level of physicality up against whatever the Canucks can throw over the boards right now.

We're not even close.

Blow it up

But... but... Sherwood had 462 hits last year!
(None stand out, but still....)

If the team has to trade the best player we've ever had when he is in the prime of his career all because they shit the bed on personnel management.....well I cannot think of a worse era for this team.

They piss Horvat off by low-balling him during contract negotiations and then trade him choosing Miller over him all the while, according to some ex teammates and coaches, Miller was getting in Petterson’s grill when Horvat was here.

Management lets the Miller/Pettersson drama fester affecting the team. Had a great opportunity to trade Miller at peak value and keeping Horvat insteadx, who has been putting up good numbers since being traded to NYI.

With the drama festering and Petey playing like garbage and is still playing like garbage is gifted a ridiculous in intradeable contract by management

The Miller/Pettersson war reaches a boiling point, Miller goes on leave, and we learn now that Tocchet, the now ex-coach, was in the Miller camp which most likely was the reason why we kept Miller over Horvat and why the organization put up with the Miller/Pettersson drama. Now, both assholes are no longer.

Management decides to walk Tocchet to the end of his contract instead of extending him last summer. Another missed opportunity.

Now backed into a corner, management desperately tries to trade Miller and Petterson, apparently having a golden opportunity to trade Pettersson for Necas and Kotkianemi but passed, now we are stuck with a player who is aloof, non-committed to offseason training and working hard in practice.

Then we low ball our top prospect while comparable college players are getting paid what Willander is asking

Now we are stuck with one core player and a President whom can’t keep his mouth shut - “he wants to play with his brothers”. It’s not the first time our President has let his mouth go wild, alienating another player much similar to Allvin throwing Boeser under the bus at the deadline. Now we will lose Boeser for nothing.

I could keep going but this management group are turning out to be a bunch of fuck ups. It will be fun watching them fuck up the Hughes situation now - “he wants to play with his brother”, why the fuck does have to say that? Idiot

For starters you bitched nonstop about Bo for two years +. But now he was the wrong one to deal.

You said the Chytil + originally presented for Miller two years before he was traded for a similar package was fair value.

Pretty much everyone liked the Pettersson contract when it was signed.

Their offer to Wilander is inline with other players drafted the same tier as he is.

Miller signed for $8M after being a better than 1.0 PPG player for 4 seasons after arriving in Vancouver. If I recall correctly, Horvat was being offered somewhere in the high $6M range and had never managed better than 61 points. He balked at it and was dealt. He then signed for $8.5M after being traded to the Islanders.....so we know what he was asking for. Horvat has never managed better than 68 points in a season, which he did last year, and this season he produced 57 points. Bo was a good player, he was hard on the puck, and great in the circle. He was the furthest thing from as asshole. Keeping Miller was the right decision.

We don't know that Tocchet wanted an extension last year, do we?

When did they desperately try to trade Pettersson? I've never heard that.

Unquestionably, this management team of Rutherford and Allvin have been pretty brutal over the past 12-18 months.

Management being bad for 12 - 18 months deserves to have their wrists slapped. 7 years of horrible management should have gotten every tooth kicked out of the manager's head.

I give these guys 1 more year to get this thing fixed or take a blowtorch to it and truly rebuild. But I don't think the Aquilinis will let them rip this team down to the studs.

Ottawa just couldn't pull it off.

So the East is settled before even one series is decided in the West.
