John Shannon was on with Donnie and Dhali yesterday and basically said that Canucks fans couldn't stomach a full tear down and rebuild like they did in Colorado. Man, how do you know until you try? If you are transparent and communicate with the fans what the plan is, I'm pretty sure most will buy in.

John shannon must have just emerged from a six year coma because this is what “experts” like him were saying back then ... and they were wrong because we wanted a teardown/rebuild

At this stage, they have a young core to build around. They need someone intelligent running things who can dig the team out of the mess of shit contracts jimbo saddled the team with

we don't need a full rebuild, Horvat (26) is the eldest of our core - arguably include Miller (28) in that group.
just stop paying bottom six players multi millions of dollars. and stop trading youth for grizzled character players (Gubberson).

i think we were for the most part on board for a rebuild when Sedins retired.
kind of hanging on to faint playoff homes in their final couple of years so they didn't have to go through the rebuild.
which is why signing louie for 6 years was so goddamned infuriating.

we have been accidentally shitty enough in that time to restock the prospect pipeline anyway.

Nice to see Green benching Boeser for those first two games didn’t sink his chances for a second contract.

A shift toward youth? Good idea. Get rid of those vets in decline. 3 firsts for the old fart.

old fart is Edler. he's a UFA soon though, so you don't need to pay quite that much
Louie and Beagle are also 35, so maybe you mean them......

Jpat: “Jim ... when you look at your teams record over the past 6 years ... youve finished 23rd or worse overall in 5 of those years ... do you feel lucky to still have a job here?”

Jimbo :”well um ... i think thats more of a question for Travis ... Travis ?”

it's tweets like these that just make me shake my head with how utterly stupid that benning bro side is... I don't support the bitter bros as much but man this is stupid.

What was the progress in 2020? Canucks being routinely outshot playoff game after playoff game and Markstrom/Demko stealing wins with lights out goaltending?
