Re: Ownership and Management
If you had any sort of memory left in your head you'd recall that I've noted that there are very few contracts on the team not signed by this incompetent group.Cousin Strawberry wrote: ↑Wed Mar 04, 2026 8:28 pmAnything to offload that gangly fumbler was worth it
Most are too expensive to now move on from. How many 1st round picks to move on from Scooter, Boeser, Demko, Petttersson. Their big off season acquisition while searching for a 2C, Kane, has been told to find his own trade deal.
You'd also recall dbr's recent work ( https://www.canuckscorner.com/forums/vi ... 59#p606559 ) or my work from several years ago, detailing just what sort of hot garbage 2nd and 4th round picks are. Meyer's and somewhere just under $2M for a 2027 2nd and a 2029 4th. Great deal!
It has only taken four years for this group to create the worst organization in the league and the worst in Vancouver Canuck history.
Yet some keep applauding them and drinking their kool aid. Mancini is here to save the day. Swoon for Sasson. LOL
I refuse the cheese from under a geriatric's foreskin, it seem some here are lapping it up.

Management is stable. Scooter will turn it around he just needs linemates, after all look at those shot block numbers. Datsyuk was drafted in the 6th round, late round picks are gold. I like kool aid.

Re: Ownership and Management
Tops, spend some more time reading this very thread. Almost everyone is on board with firing mgmt., and is putting this debacle mostly at their feet (and ownership). If there is any support for them, its because they want this team to fail so badly, that ownership will be forced to sell. Not one person that I am aware of, is supportive of the job this group has done, or is doing or has faith they will "turn it around."
Most want to trade EP40 as well, and hopefully get more picks. No one is under the illusion he is a 100pt. player anymore. The only ones supporting keeping him (I am not in the boat), are arguing that the return won't give us a #1C or even a #2. Might as well keep him with the hopes that a player like McKenna might be able to help him out, or buy some time for the team to find another option/draft his replacement.
I have no idea why you think having lots of draft capital is a bad thing. Yes, its a huge gamble - and the large majority of them do not pan out (we've all seen the stats, thanks). But having draft capital also allows a competent management team to make deals that will better this club, move up in the draft etc. Trading Myers for draft capital is a good thing. Why would they keep him? Unless you think they should re-sign him after his contract expires? Or he will help the team be better next year?

Re: Ownership and Management
Something went really wrong with this franchise.
Just thinking little less than a year ago. Abby won the Calder, what a bright future we could have. Turned out to be a disaster. What's the sense of a farmteam not developing some players for the 1st team. They can get as many draft picks they want, if they're not closing this gap, senseless.

Would Myers have been a good vet for the kids to learn from? Yup, but he's not the only vet on the blueline.
Is retaining on Myers contract ideal? Nope, and managing the amount of retentions a club has is important, but it's not like he has a shit-ton of term left compared to a Garland or Pettersson contract. Besides, it's not like the club needs cap space to sign core or quality supporting players in the near term.
Are the '27 2nd and '29 4th-rund picks going to amount to anything? Who knows? All we know is Myers wasn't going to be a factor for this club moving forward into contention. At least with those picks, there's a chance of having a player that will be a factor in the future.
Pretty much everyone here has criticisms of management and the job they've done. Just not everybody seems committed to painting every move as an unmitigated disaster.

Or you can take the time to explain your stance on draft capital, what you would do with Myers - what your plan would be for EP40.
