@MikeHalford604 I don’t get it. Those guys are best friends with Hughes but they signed long term deals and *didnt* know he was planning to leave? Like they never asked him if he was sticking around? Or did they just want the bag regardless of who signed the checks?

'quinn was definitely leaving so we signed boeser and demko and garland to keep him, even though, i repeat, we knew he was leaving' is quite the gambit

@CanucksArmy Did he just admit they tanked?

Jim Rutherford talks about Patrik Allvin and the bad season the team had. 🎥: #Canucks

@LaheyHNIC Agents love Alvin. He gave out long term contracts like candy

Dhali Texting agents on Allvin getting canned “Agents saying they fired the wrong guy” 👀 Halbro

@sekeresandprice Short of an impact player for impact player trade, this is the best return. Would have loved another pick though.

Do you feel better about the Quinn Hughes trade today than at the time it was made? #Canucks

@J_TheCynic People actually forgot the whole thing but he resurrected it out of the blue

The more Chris Pronger talks about why he left Edmonton. It becomes more and more obvious he is lying.

@Buckfoston Are we actually comparing MLB to MLS? City and fans will bend over backwards for an MLB team.

How does city of Vancouver plan to attract an owner for an MLB franchise to come buy land here, when they can’t accommodate their MLS team with much less of an investment than an MLB franchise?

@DonnieandDhali @FriedgeHNIC Rutherford was hired after Benning was fired.

"They never made a change without having the next guy.." @FriedgeHNIC on potential changes with Adam Foote and Patrik Allvin, and looking at the history of changes by the Ownership group. Full interview.. youtu.be/ic_iWR2KdAU

@SatiarShah @VCanucksNews The bar is so low, but you have to keep him around. We built our team around selfish players since the Horvat/Miller/EP/QH era started. Time to reset…

Blueger's leadership per/60 is the highest on the team

@sarobertsonca Canadians are so dumb. No wonder Americans don’t respect them.

PM Carney: "It started quietly. People choosing a wine from the Okanagan over one from California -- anyone had any bourbon recently? No, I didn't think so. Sorry."

@arpan_on_BC Hard to stomach. Been a while since we’ve had a franchise altering pick. Possibly never.

Normalize Canucks fans accepting that even getting the #3 pick would be an excellent result. The purpose of tanking was to get high of a pick as possible in the event didn’t win lottery. At worst, we get best non-lottery pick. A prospect with serious upside.

@mattsekeres The job is his if he wants it. They are trying to figure out what to do with Alvin.

If the Canucks are going to deny Ryan Johnson the opportunity of career advancement in Nashville (where he lives), then they owe him promotion within their own ranks. At least, that's what functional organizations who care about people (especially loyal employees) would do.

@garymasonglobe Gary Mason doesn’t wonder. He has direct access to ownership.

Here’s my take on the Canucks situation: As the Canucks go into a pivotal off-season, it’s hard to say if there will be front office change theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/…

@reporterchris @VCanucksNews Fitzy? Really?

The New Jersey Devils are parting ways with President/GM Tom Fitzgerald.

@Sapsterr_ The Canucks should have kept him

In 2021, when Pittsburgh was looking to hire a new front office, Mike Gillis provided a 27 page document to them that broke down why he believed he could be the person to turn Pittsburgh hockey back around. He took ownership of his faults, described what he did after being fired to get better (he mentioned Navy SEAL teams VUCA environments as something he was drawn to), and what changes he would make under a future tenure. Here was his approach to NHL Management in 2021. Even with his previous faults in Vancouver, Gillis has shown a willingness to learn and an eagerness to improve. The #LeafsForever have apparently hired a third party to help find their next Hockey Management lead, so it shouldn't be a surprise to hear he is in the running.

@patersonjeff Wow he said nothing

Quinn Hughes not sure how to feel ahead of first game vs #Canucks. Sticks up for City of Vancouver at the end

@ThomasDrance @TrevBeggs I think calling a guy writing for a website a “journalist” is a stretch.

The #Canucks have provided a statement on removing @TrevBeggs from Rogers Arena last week to the Globe and Mail. The club had previously offered no comment to other inquiring outlets, including The Athletic: theglobeandmail.com/gift/68b477bdf…

@Jabs_13 8 years yes. $9M no. I think $5 or so would be fine. He’s not even outplaying Willander who this regime played hardball with.

BRUH. This can’t be… I still very much believe in Zeev Buium and think he’s got a bright future, but there is no responsible reason he should be getting an 8-year extension and at that rate…. What happened to earning your money and proving your worth?

@JFreshHockey Yea no one is saying he’s a $9M player except his agent and Dhaliwal (mouthpiece)

Call me old-fashioned, but I feel like even if you're paying for potential you gotta make sure the guy is a player before you dump $60-70M on his lap

@jabo_vancouver The Horvat era…lose and hit the showers

We have seen some bad hockey over the last decade, but when was the last time we saw young important players decide they weren't going to take losing lying down? I love to see this and I hope it's the beginning of a new identity of toughness, win or lose. #Canucks

@VCanucksNews Relax guys. This is Dhaliwal doing his job, which is being a mouthpiece for the agents. They then feed him some info in return.
