Hopefully we trade all three, but IMO it’s only Sutter goes.
My empty Scotch glass is showing Sutter to the Oilers for that ex Giant kid - Bennet?

They be the fodder for the Tank canons.
Things are looking up:
Steal a win in the first game against MTL, move within 3 points, and pressure ramps up.
Next game, pressure is on to move within 1 point (we'll ignore the five games MTL has in hand) and the team responds with Demko giving them great goaltending - and we get a 5-1 loss.
Like I said, anyone can walk a 2by4 when there is no pressure, no expectations, no consequences. This team will continue to drift, behind MTL.
I expect a closer game coming up, but ultimately the more the Canucks narrow the gap, the more they will choke and fold like a cheap tent. The more the gap widens, the better the Canucks will play until the pressure is on again. It won't be enough to make playoffs.
Mediocrity purgatory. I wonder who first came up with that phrase. (oh, gawddammitt @racerjoe and @y2kcanucks - at least I made it famous)
We were never going to be bottom 3. A win streak was inevitable.
8-10 last is most likely.
League would have found a way to punish the canucks retroactively had they blatantly tanked.It is fun to consider that the Canucks have always driven poorly constructed Tanks and have alway been punished for it while the Lafs former coach now acknowledges they actually conspired, with intent, to create a well constructed Tank in order to claim Matthews but yet received no penalty from the League Overlords for this violation.
Canuckluck or?

I think it all depends on if they make the playoffs.Barf. Benning and Green will keep their jobs, won’t they? f*** me

I think Jim will prob stay since he has extension already, but Green will most likely get released, since his contract is near over.

I don't think that's the case, I have no doubt that Jim Wants to win the cup like everybody else, I just don't feel he is talented enough in the FA Department to get it done.And here lies the problem: this team's target has always been playoffs, not the cup.
Even then, they are still VERY bad at reaching this minimal-effort goal.

He should have brought in somebody ages ago to handle and help with Free Agents, Because Drafting, and even trading (When it's not giving picks away) He has done fairly alright.
I can kinda feel that playoff is what they are shooting for, nothing further. This explains why Benning is so eager to jump on so many what he would perceive as shortcuts then fail so spectacularly.
The past off season he did alright. But against more than half a decade of horrific asset management/contracts, it's like dusting a pile of shit with some powdered sugar to make it looks like brownies.
