Toronto also has the market, so they can afford to be shitty, so they can be great in the future. The people there are used to having shitty teams raptors, Jay's, Leafs all sucked til recently etc. It would still sell out regardless.

Vancouver doesn't even compare, shitty team = PCE out like grizzlies. Or like last season, tickets were low as 30bux and ppl still didn't bother to go. Most "Fans" /media here are too impatient, only a select few would understand. Plus aquaman is a greedy mofo and won't allow a full rebuild. No matter what gm the nucks get they will not be able to do what they really want, as long as aquaman is there.

Vancouver is too used to being a mediocre team, good enough to make playoffs or be "competitive" enough for ticket sales, but too shitty to ever win the cup. Prolly be another decade or so to make the finals lol

Fans have been losing interest year by year already without a rebuild.

And without the rebuild, we're destined to be shitty for several years to come but without the reward at the end.

Whether the owner will allow it is a separate issue. Yeah our fans suck, they'll leave when we start to rebuild, but they'll come back after the rebuild when we're good like the bandwagoners they are.

I don't care if we go 0-82 due to rebuild. Id just be happy to see new faces. As much as I love the Sedins I'm sick of the old boys club

#Canucks still working phones on the seconday market - some targets include Jooris, Knight, Pirri and Gagner.

im sure pirri will feel great to be playing WITH tryamkin than against, if he does sign with nucks jaja

We've been in on Barrie for a while. They asked about him before they traded for Gudbranson.

Not sure what we have left to trade for him, and there doesn't seem to be too much room left on our roster.

We desperately need someone like Barrie but the only logical trade would be Tanev for him 1-for-1. The problem with that is, then we'll desperately need someone like Tanev.
