Rocky; Your going to feel much better tomorrow, or soon thereafter, when all of a sudden there's one less AHL, puffy faced, poor excuse for a coach, directing your Vancouver Canucks. Gotta happen, everything points to it.

Rocky. I barely made out it of your first sentence without peeing my pants horrendously.
That’s not surprising considering your age, your “build”,and some of the choices you’ve made over the years.

So, not being one to have paid too much attention to the media types up until a few years ago, can anybody explain the fascination and obsession some in this market have with this Botchford guy?

After following this team for years and seeing various media types come and go - nope.

The Bitters love Botchford, he was there at the beginning of social media taking off in Canuck land and was the leader in the Benning Hate which is why he is a god at Canucks HF I could tell Botch was coked up long before it finally did him in. He was wound tighter than a Murphy bed spring his last few years.

There was a span in time, when he'd travel with the team, he was OK. Then the writing in the Province was not too bad compared to the doom and gloom of Tony Gallagher. Then he lost it. Totally lost it. Left a family behind. Dummy.

Matt Sekeres is melting down before our eyes on Twitter, in a middle of a Twitter bitch fight with Iain McIntyre. Matt has gone real sour after he tweeted this “apparent” Horvat Miller fight :lol:

Is Janik Hansen the new Ray Ferraro?

Doyle what happened to your Boi Ray? He sucks now.

Bieksa and Hansen are where it’s at

Does Hansen think Benning is doing a good job?

There should be a new pair of eyes put in place Doyle, yes. I think it’s time but it don’t matter who gets the chair with these owners. I find it quite stunning how some can’t clue in on how this team is managed. There is a reason why Benning hasn’t been fired he is what the mafia calls a “front boss”. Someone made to look like the boss but is a mere decoy to throw of the Feds on who the real boss. Like how everyone thought Fat Tony Salerno was the Boss of the Genovese crime family when it was the Chin Gigante or how Sam Giancana was the boss of the Chicago Outfit when it was Tony Accardo. Benning is nothing but a front boss for the Aqualini’s

:lol:
The Chin was a Legend. He was the boss of the Genovese crime Family from 1981 to 2005. Ask Damonberryman about the Chin, he ran rackets for him in the 90’s.
