@patersonjeff#patcast random question: you and Botch used to talk about the best chicken and waffles in Vegas. What was the name of the place? I’ll be there and would like to go. 🙂
@reuben_copley @ThomasDrance@JamieDodd I hope so. God I hope so. I’m on the side of wanting picks over prospects, though. No more Baertschis, Dahlens and Goldobins.
@ThomasDrance@JamieDodd when #canucks mgmt says you don’t get in trouble signing high end players, only overpaying middle six players… I point to MIN with Suter and Parise. That was the canary in the coal mine for OEL and Miller.
@ThomasDrance with McCrimmon still GM in LV and known for moving cap to make high-end splashes, do you see them as potential partners for a JT Miller trade? #Canucks
@ThomasDrance do you read anything, if at all, into the fact that Rutherford still speaks about “the #Canucks” in the third person as opposed to “us” or “we”?
@ThomasDrance@JamieDodd if this regime can’t turn it around and decides to go scorched earth in 3 years, are they held accountable or do they get a pass and a chance to build it their way? #canucks
@ThomasDrance 👍🏼 Side note I’m listening to the Mar 1 Canucks Hour in pieces and see this is trod territory. Accountable consistency requires a proven alpha. Petey is an unproven alpha. Miller is a budding alpha. OEL is an experienced beta. Quite the quagmire with no cap maneuverability.
@ThomasDrance Is it just me or does this team remind you of the young, inconsistent 2008 Canucks and could similarly use a star of Sundin’s stature to show then what it really takes to prepare and win in this league? (Did the Sedins retire too early?)
@patersonjeff@sekeresandprice We all know Jeff is an excellent reporter, but the real acquisition lies in his ad segue skills. Looking forward to the show even more!
@nineoclockgun is there a chance you’ll be dropping the BC flag in heather grey / black / white, but standard flat brim adjustable instead of outdoorsman? 🔥💪🏼🤞🏼
