Trevor Linden is about to come on Global TV. Steve Darling started reporting it and he was walking in and Trevor says its news to him. He was laughing as Steve asked him

The Aquilinis have sent legal letters to two local media members, requesting a retraction and apology for suggesting ownership had a significant role in hiring John Tortorella. (for disclosure sake, I’m not one of them)

A libel notice must be sent within six weeks of an alleged libellous statement, and is the first step if you want to sue a publisher for libel.

In writing, you need to let the author know you believe you have been libelled.

In this particular case, the Aquilinis claim the reports, one of which says Tortorella was hired by consensus, were erroneous and Tortorella was their general manager’s choice, and one which they backed.

They also claim that by writing they had a prominent role in the hiring it was designed to “incite ridicule for making bad or embarrassing judgments.”

Linden has outright denied that the Canucks have contacted him about being President

Good luck to the Aquilini's because that won't go to court - they legally signed Torts so they wanted him, you can't back anything in their favor - these guys should just go away

paisano brotherhood!!! ... any italian gm candidates out there??? Jay Feaster is changing his name to Giovanni Mangiacake and growing facial hair to fit in

Tony Tanti? If I remember correctly he is Maltese, but that's pretty close and he had pretty thick hair as I recall

Also I noticed at the last Olympics that Mike Eruzione still isn't really doing anything after 30+ years, so he's probably free :laugh3:

I think the happiest person right now is my wife... baby coming in 3 weeks and now she knows I won't be glued to a Canucks first round blow out.

Tony Tanti now owns and operates a flooring business in the lower mainland so he has the general manager experience the canucks need
