What did y’all do to the hockey Gods to be such a poorly run franchise? Ian Cole?
With term?
But why?
If y’all had just given Brock his QA on a one year deal last summer, he’d have been traded at 50% retained at the 2023 TDL for a middling draft pick. Would have $6.65mm in cap space for the next two years.
The same issue with Ian cole will happen next summer. You don’t do term deals with guys like Cole. The slow motion train wreck decisions Vancouvers front office makes are obvious and hard to watch.
The unforced errors your FO makes are mind numbing.
Dude again I ask what is your obsession with Vancouver? Good on winning a cup nobody can take that but let's not sugar coat the fact the Avs peaked and your roster has gotten weaker the last two years and since you guy might be the shittiest drafting team in hockey have fun getting back on top.
Seriously, after Makar, Mak, Rants, you have nothing that is anything special. You hit lightning in a bottle for 1 season and the exodus began.
Bo had 1 stretch in the playoffs in0uinn, he sure didn't look anywhere near his level.
You make fun of our roster, you mention Brock in this post when he would be #4 in points on the avs last season.
Your big add this year is a washed up lazy player a rebuilding team with no cap issues retained 50% just to be rid of him.
The funniest thing is you talk about bad moves but we have 1 player 30 or older signed for next season and he's only been top 20 in scoring over the last 4 years.
Ian Cole who likely signs for cheap for two years is hardly a move that would have any negative effect, I mean he's no Brad Hunt or Dennis Malgin but funny how he seems to be coveted by strong teams like TB and even the Avs.
End of the day we have a ton of cap this year and going forward, we are the 3rd youngest team with elite pieces in all the important places and a GM in Alvin who has purged a lot of Bennings mistakes.
