All coaches get a 3 year team. Most get more.

What was the quality of the rosters in Arizona that put up that .481 record?

I’m not a fan but f*** me takes like this are shit.
How did Tippet do with that same roster

By the way the Canucks are just as crap as that Arizona roster. Take off the rose coloured glasses

These are the same fans that lost their shit and got Gillis fired because of two trades that were maybe the biggest wins for the franchise in the last decade.

And then licked Benning‘s balls for 8 years.

The fans of this team are very stupid.

Lol he f***ed Hodgson up so bad the fact you listed him is hilarious. I have been told when you have top 10 pick you better hit on them if that the rule for Benning same applies for Gillis. Also if you look at some of the players that either went right after or a couple spots after are pretty good.
I'm really starting to wonder if Gillis just went around kicking people's dogs, I really just don't understand how the best GM we've ever had still has people like this that will argue to the ends of the earth about how he was a bad gm cause he didn't draft like someone that had 5 top 10 picks.

Only 4 players Benning drafted are on the squad: Pettersson, Hughes, Boeser and Demko.

4 players in 8 drafts which you had 5 picks in the top 10.
People really struggle to understand the context in evaluating draft success.

So strongly influenced by how many high picks you make, and then if you have just a ridiculously high volume of later round picks because those are total shots in the dark.

Then you factor in what the development is like at lower levels and how quickly players can get themselves onto the roster.

All that shit influences eventual games played tallies which are posted way too frequently.

I liked that Gillis was accountable about the drafting process and results being bad.

So are you more pissed about his coaching record, or his gambling charges? Seems like you’re very bitter about him…like he did something to you personally kind of bitter.

Love how people still blame Benning (and he was awful) yet theses 2 current clowns extended miller and gave up a 2nd for Stillman

Ironically that was Scotty Bowmans coaching record before St.Louis hired him and then went to the Finals
Who is scotty bowman?

Make my day.
I was just thinking the same thing. It's really a shame that we are so shitty and need to trade him away for more assets. Otherwise I would of loved him to retire a Canuck.

Throughout this horrible run, Schenn always looked like the only one who still gave a f@#k.

Love Schenn. :thumbu:

Schenn will return as a UFA. I can feel it

Media probably mad because management burned their source in Doerrie.

There is no thought or strategy behind the PP, nobody knows what to do or has any sort of plan, that needs to change.
