Gomer wasn't railroaded. He was treated too much patience if anything. He was asked by the moderation team many, many times to adjust his posting style. He didn't. He had enough warnings. He's gone, end of story.

Maybe we can get back to past Canuck players now?

Gohmert got picked on by a lot of the elders. Hargraves tried to help him out a bit and efforted to get some folks to back off. Gomes got shafted. He was a pilot, an ex pro player and he shared some quality links for the people.

Interesting - he spent 21 teams through 12 leagues (and never made it to the NHL).

Great find Corn :)

He was my favorite Canuck the year he played here, a real character and a cult hero of sorts. He wore this contraption on his head that made Butch Goring's helmet look high tech by comparison.

Being named coach-GM of the legendary Macon Whoopees had to have been a career highlight.

I guess it just "feels" like we have been burdened by losers our entire existence....

...."some" other teams must feel.the same way.

Right?

Manno reminds me of that other sweathog, Horshack ^

EDIT: Or perhaps a cross of him and Epstein...

Didn't we once have a Canucks History subforum here?

Anyway Bruce Boudreau in a bubble helmet opens the scoring in this one.

My God those shift lengths though :lol:

I trust Miller sent that empty net goal puck to RoboSwede
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

The Rangers have signed the D prospect they recieved from the Canucks in the Miller trade, Jackson Dorrington. He played his AHL first game with Hartford this week.
