More news from somewhere on the web: Johnson said assistant general managers Emilie Castonguay and Cammi Granato are being retained. “They are a big part of this group and their maturation. Nothing has changed in that regard.” Johnson is also working on filling his old position — GM of AHL affiliate ...

The Canucks were in please Quinn mode. After Tocchet left Quinn spoke highly about Foote and his relationship with him.

The Rutherford regime really screwed the pooch on the whole Hughes thing.

Would you pick him at third Donny?

Perhaps it makes no difference but if Buium signs after July he /or the Canucks can benefit with an eight year deal. After Sept it drops to a seven year deal. Speaking of the Rossi :mrgreen: , what does his next deal look like? I guess we get to, hopefully, see a full season from him this upcoming ...

The apathy for me is the biggest challenge. Once upon a time I was a die hard. Never missed a game, even bought the PPV way back when. I can barely watch a full game anymore. I PVR most games and then decide if I want to watch and when I do I fast forward a lot. A far cry from the WCE days when you ...

The Cap circumvention also helped them tremendously. I thought they would fall off this year not being able to utilize that loop hole. But you have to hand it to them. When a high value player is available they make room. Stone, Eichel, Mariner come to mind. Even if they have to tamper they will get ...

Aquaman was looking for another yes man. Maybe he has learned?? Like I said yesterday, it was the first time I have heard him utter rebuild, and he did so several times. Now does he believe it? Does he have the patience? Will he listen to the twins whereas in the past he has failed to listen to ...

So strange that he did that. They won! Imagine if they had lost that series.

The answer to me is simple. When pick 24 comes around if one of them is BPA then you pick him. If the other one falls to 33 and is BPA you pick him. I do not see them as game breakers that we should be going out of our way to draft. We need to improve our prospects pool and you do that by sticking ...

Seems Rutherford has cleaned out his office and at the completion of the draft will make Vancouver is secondary home and return to the east for a more permanent home. So sticking close some of the time to make himself available. Perhaps this is just a nice way to fire the guy. Twins were asked who ...

I didn't read they were limiting spending. Just the opposite. They will spend what it takes and provide the new management team with whatever they feel they need in order to expedite the rebuild without going to fast or cutting corners. They emphasized several times that every decision moving ...

Rumours that the leaves asked Riley to waivers NMC. Blockbuster trade, Riley for Nurse straight up.

A few things that I noted: Ownership must have said rebuild or full rebuild 10 times before he introduced the new crew. This is huge IMHO. All three said that ownership presented them with plan that they agreed with and they have full autonomy. Yes I know we have heard that before. Henrik went as ...

I wonder who Quit will blame for this loss?

Guerin is quoted as stating that he gave TFG'S exactly what they asked for first kick at the can. It is also reported that the Red Wings offer was better but QH would not sign an extension thus the deal fell apart. We have no idea what compotent Management (like say Guerin for instance) could have ...
