Cool story. Right up there with Dick’s story that Benning traded for Rask, drafted Lucic, Kessel and Marchand all while he was still an employee of the Buffalo Sabres.RoyalDude wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 8:32 amIf Benning wins the cup for us, Blob will still mope.

Sort of like how you credit Gillis for the likes of Edler, Sedins, Burrows, Bieksa, Kesler, Salo, Luongo etc., because he - in your own words “resigned them” even through they were there before Gillis started his first day on the jobBlob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 8:41 amCool story.

That was in response to the tards that said Jim Benning built the Bruins. The drafting stunk while he was there and all the good players that were and are there were acquired before or after his tenure. They drafted one good player in his time there- Tyler Seguin and he was a layup at #2.RoyalDude wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 9:56 amSort of like how you credit Gillis for the likes of Edler, Sedins, Burrows, Bieksa, Kesler, Salo, Luongo etc., because he - in your own words “resigned them” even through they were there before Gillis started his first day on the jobBlob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 8:41 amCool story.

So again... are you one of the meat puppets that think Benning built the Bruins?

You can’t have your cake and eat it Bubbles
“Benning had nothing to do with the players already in Boston’s system who won them the cup in 2011”
“Sedins, Kesler, Burrows, Bieksa, Edler, Salo, Luongo, Hansen, Raymond etc are Gillis players cause he resigned them” even though they were brought in by previous Mgmt.
Hmm

So you agree Elmer had little to do with the Bruins cup in 2011 and little to do with their current success.RoyalDude wrote: ↑Sun Jul 14, 2019 10:49 am You can’t have your cake and eat it Bubbles

So Blab, I don’t understand
You give Gillis credit for getting to the finals with a core of players provided by previous front offices cause he, in your words “resigned them” but won’t give credit to Benning for winning the cup with players provided by other front office staff? How is that different?
