I have no idea what you are talking about.
Somewhere in NW BC trying (yet again) to trade a(nother) Swede…..

Re: Canucks News N Notes 25-26
I can’t remember exactly when I really got into the Canucks but my mom and dad came from back east and they were huge hockey fans but converted to Canucks when we moved out here.
I have seen this team through several owners, GMs and stars and times when the well was very very very dry. But through out it all I devoured everything Canucks. Reading the Province every day as that was the only not source of information on the team.
I never lost hope, I just went with the team though the times they went to the SC finals, staying up late to watch the multiple OT against Dallas I think.
Today with my medical issues I have a different perspective. My timeline is no longer years and years I can’t wait. I have no idea what the future holds.
Right now I have just started to think why? Why do I still put on the Canuck jersey and watch games? It is more fun to watch them with my son who finally got into it after 20. I have to now just tell him to be patient as I have seen this before and many times. My wife finally started to like hockey but follows the Maple leaves
so we have fun watching those games together.
I don’t mind seeing a mini rebuild but I need playoffs within 4-5 years, even if they just squeak in. Just make the playoffs. I really don’t care who is on the team, I stopped buying named jerseys back in Bertuzzi days.
Donny your letter was well put and the team is really close to losing our age bracket with their complete and utter destruction of this team through their constant meddling. I just wish they would sell the team to a new owner who understands.
I will still watch as much as I can, will put the game on and scroll the phone while watching. I actually feel sorry for players like Garland who has to watch someone like EP float out there at $11.6M.
Sigh
