Has Seguin?

What about his little radio show with Captain Jamie snickering about the Sedins?

Don't put too much stock into that one! But who knows if he has turned a corner. Guys like him, all the talent in the world and hockey comes easy to them. Some get it, others just feel entitled. I honestly don't know where he fits but I do think Boston got way too little for him.

And in the Hamilton deal, a lot of GMs would gladly have paid the price but he apparently wasn't shopped too much. Calgary even said they were surprised to get him for just picks, they were prepared to lose a roster player. Same way they handled Thornton. Didn't shop him too widely. Many a GM said after the Thornton deal they didn't even know he was available. Something in the Boston water the way all these GMs turn over high calibre players for way less than market, all without fully shopping them.

Re-invent history? Um no....more like rehabilitating those with SELECTIVE memories. Yes, sir... you are the leader of the pack in that category, but hey keep on keeping on with the agenda, it's fun

Stats are simply numbers, get your name engraved on the mug underneath Vancouver Canucks and that'll impress the fuck outta me.

"There are three kinds of lies: Lies, damned lies and statistics." – Mark Twain

“Statistics are for losers” - Vince Lombardi

“Corsi is for losers” - Chris Neil

Everyone used to know that each statistic must be taken with a grain of salt.

They are just one set of tools at a GM's disposal.

But... sadly... they are the only thing many fans go by these days.

I call these fans: MORONS

Sooooo when Luca Sbisa is among the league worst in every single stat except rattling the boards every ten games people are morons for thinking he sucks . Cool ..... But then he fails any sane persons eye test if they are truly honest . So wtf are the clowns who keep excusing Benning for the horrible acquisition and even more horrible extension ? I call them fucking liars or trolls depending on the poster .

Sbisa fails the available-stats test AND the eye test.

I think everyone agrees on that.

I don't see anyone saying the Sbisa contract is a good one right now Scarecrow Blob.

Except Benning? I'm not hopeful, but I'm hoping this professional hockey guy knows better than us.

24 year old, 6'0", 190 lbs - sound two-way center Cody Eakin re-signs with Dallas 4yrs-$3.85M per - his highest goal total is 19 in a season.

Blob is definitely an interesting case study right now, I think we can all agree that blobs - Sbisa Hate is what we call Displaced Agression, he is merely just a lightning rod for Blobby as his hate started brewing way back when he was blaming Giggles for ruining Keith Buyout Ballards game, the entire Rogers Arena crowd chanting - Fire Gillis, the eventual firing of Gillis, the letting go of his favourite pugilist - Tom Sestito, the letting go of Ryan Nolans Punching Bag Stanton, to what broke the camels back - the trading of his future Ryan Clowe - Zack Bump Kassian.

Blobby may need a team of psychiatrists from Switzerlznd to help straighten him out

Some people, including Benning, see Sbisa as an overpaid but necessary piece at this stage of the rebuild.

Some people, including Benning, think Sbisa will perform better in the future than he has in the past.

Some people, including Benning, know that if Sbisa does not perform better

... Sbisa/contract is gone baby gone in 3 years (towards the end of the rebuild).

But hey ALL people, including Benning, know the Sbisa contract is a not a good one right now.

Lol like I should expect anything other than a red herring from Pacific Blue. My problem is the Canucks current GM , James Elmer Benning . All of that other drivel you typed out has nothing to do with anything being discussed here.

Did you know Willie is short for Wilrod? Elmer and Wilrod. That explains a lot.
