Post-Game Talk: GM 7 | Habs def. Canucks - 5-2 (Pettersson, Hoglander)

[DustyMartellaughs]

Don't lose faith my son...

"And This Too Shall Pass" 2 Corinthians 4: 17-18

I’m an atheist. Not because of the Canucks, but they don’t help things.

We really should of picked up Devon Toews this off-season, although we didnt have cap space I suppose.

We need 2 top 4 dman next off-season yikes...

I think everyone knew it, the only question was, Can you afford to give an aging goalie with reoccurring injuries a long term contract.

That's a question that won't be answered in the first 10 games of this season.

Of course we did exactly that with Ferland but hopefully we're moving up the learning curve.

Can you afford to pay Tyler Myers 6M over 5 years?
Can you afford to pay Loui Eriksson 6M over 6 years?
Can you afford to pay Jay Beagle 3M over 4 years?
Can you afford to pay Antoine Roussel 3M over 4 years?
Can you afford to pay Brandon Sutter 4.375M over 5 years?

These are questions that have already been answered.

So.... if we already know the answer to these questions... is it not logical that we know the answer to YOUR question?

Or .... do you want to take a wait-and-see approach?

 

[CherryToke]

I think we’ll take 2 of three from the sens.

Every other time I’m less optimistic

Possible I guess but the b2b game is a guaranteed loss as per usual

 

[Jack Burton]

There's almost a beauty in the fact that Benning can't even do anything to "fix" the team because he's capped out thanks to his ingenious signings.

The clock is ticking.

Its a beautiful sight.

Benning needs to be stopped.

 

[Peen]

I’m still an advocate for trying myers at forward.

 

[CNuck]

the Canucks played with urgency tonight which is a good sign. I think they will breakout soon.

I think Tkachuk is going to have a good game.

For like 5 minutes at the beginning of the 3rd period. The other 55 minutes of the game, they were awful.

and Eriksson on D.

What's the worst that could happen

love the positivity; it's so easy to burn the team right now.

I'm comfortably numb at the moment.

Do GMs get fired mid-season very often? And without firing the coach? Is there any better way to humiliate and demoralize the team/players during the regular season?

Take away their 1D and 1G after getting deep into the playoffs?

Oh wait.. that's already happened.

If you are firing the GM and coach they likely already are demoralized.

You're missing 2 more contracts equaling 5.9 mil.

but I understand how you forgot them considering they're not even on the damn roster.

[xtra]

Those saying he can’t do anything to fix this mess forget he has a full complement of picks and podz to deal to clear cap and get a player or two in

 

[The Iron Goalie]

Season hangs in the balance next week vs Ottawa...need 2 wins minimum, or the math starts getting really really tough.

I see no reason to bring Luca Sbisa into this conversation.

I would rather have Pizza's 3.6M over 3 year contract on the team than Myers right now and forever.

It's awesome how this team has levels of shittyness.

I'm still shocked someone was stupid enough to give him that....and then traded for and extended Gudbranson at $4M over 3...and then was still given authority to sign Myers to $6M over 5. Like the Twilight Zone or something.
