The housecleaning continues.

While fans look on, wondering why this is happening at the most crucial time of the year, for finding free agents.

Stop firing people, and start finding talent to make our team better. 29 other teams are doing that right now. :shakehead

Why not wait until there is nothing left to do, before looking at organizational changes.

This team has a real issue with timing.

Every time he opens his mouth the little boy in me dies a little.

All I feel I feel like doing is chanting in perfect EPL style: YOU DONT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING!

Living in NZ for a couple years, the standard rugby chant when an opposing player missed a kick or was sin binned was the elegantly simple:

YOU F***** UP!

YOU F***** UP!

YOU F***** UP!

YOU F***** UP!

Which seems about right here.

Benning is trying to make this team worse, not better.

Only 2 trades were made last year between this date and the start of the season (IIRC). Pretty much the team you see now is the team we got. Management is replacing the other guys at the time that you can probably consider as the "down time" for the team.

Why would anyone want to fire Benning when he's probably getting what most of the fans wanted; a top 5 pick this upcoming draft.

There is still no excuse for getting such poor returns on trades. If we are rebuilding, we need to be getting better picks. Not getting ripped apart on trades. Any bozo can get rid of players if the return doesn't matter and end up with a higher draft pick.

At this point, I might not be surprised if/when the Sedins are traded.
