Major Changes to The Canucks Hockey Department

[Cascade Youth]

My biggest fear at this point is that Adams is fired within the year - which would mean that this was NOT the plan (or that the plan was executed poorly) and it has all been for nothing…

Would that surprise anyone at this point with this ownership ?

I know that would be great fun but it isn't happening.

Nope.  You just could not type *overhall*

All the words ending in hall have been hereby officially shortened to *all*.  It's more goodly.

[Doohicksie]

But it's overhaul anyway.

To the people of Vancouver:  Welcome to Buffalo.  I'd like to say you'll get used to it, but I'm still not.

The word is overHAUL, NOT overHALL.

It's not an apartment above the tavern, it's a complete revamping of the FO.

 

Goll durn Canuck.  😛

We all know that, but it's funnier my way even if it's not goodly.

Next order of operations, they need to start purging the team of folks who a) don't want to be there, b) are causing locker room dissent, and c) are not "their" guys.

So --- who all do you want from Vancouver? What do you do to acquire them?

For example, a really bad idea: Get Vancouver to retain $1M/year on RHD Myers and send us a 1st to take his contract. He'd have to waive his trade list for it to work. Then, pair him with Power to form the tallest D-pair anywhere. And despite being the biggest on the ice, never ice them on a D-zone faceoff. After two years (2024-25) he's off the books as we start needing to spend to the cap on our kids, or buyout the final year of his contract. Note: We should rather do a broken Travis Hamonic (also needs to waive his trade clause) as the RHD than Myers. Both are bad ideas, but ideas are free.

A lot of the Vancouver thing falls on Pettersson and some of the other "stars" underachieving this year. Pettersson signed the contract late and now only has 4 goals on the season. So the question is will Boudreau get him back on track or will they end up tearing down like we did?

A number of people here wanted Boudreau, I guess we will find out if he might have been a good choice or not.
