I agree, PA is the worst. Never thought I would be able to say that after the Benning years.
As VHG once posted, get it right next timeImagine if he had 4 mil extra to sign Toffoli and Tanev instead of paying the Luongo cap re-capture penalty. Yes it was legal at the time of the signing but the Gillis arrogance made the NHL make sure there was a message sent to MG. Maybe then JB would have not needed more time if he had the cap space.
Benning was terrible PA even worse but it all started with the incompetence and arrogance of Gillis.
You can have your opinion but that won’t change mine.
I don’t buy that. Gillis started the chaos. He emptied the cupboards and gave NMC and NTCs to aging players. Remember the Kesler trade where Benning had one team to deal with only. Bieksa Hamhuis.
Then Gillis realized holy shit this team is slow and old . The blame starts with him and snowballed as each mgmt group got worse as time went on. PA and JR are the worst mgmt group ever. Not even close.
JB hands down the worst.

Canucks have had the worst management and ownership for over a decade now.Even dating back to Gillis. Even though he took them to game 7 he collapsed the future. His drafting was terrible, he left the shelves empty, he handcuffed the team with full NTCs and NMCs
Time to admits this team aside from a few bright moments have been a train wreck and the ownership through it’s entire existence has stunk.
Maybe a reset and going back to square one with the Sedins and RJ will change things but with an owner that pays its GM less than a JapaDog cart vendor I am not really expecting much. I think FA is just putting lipstick on a pig.
GMMG advised a retool or a rebuild fired for it. Of course cupboard was bear from cup runs like most teams do. Naslund injured by a dirty hy by Moore hurt. Best line in hockey then. His drafting overall was probably the worst in team history. Since then it’s all on FA & every regime he has hired. Fired TL over rebuilding properly. TL hiring JB was a domino that set the team back a decade plus. JR/PA regime did ok on draft capital & UFA’s.

GM’s make mistakes, they certainly did with regards to EP40, hand is dealt move on.
It’s RJ’s problem how to deal with him now whether he’s cool with him floating the rest of his deal out.
There is a long list of players that played like crap here. Eventually you got to stop blaming the players and look at the system
Yes, paying a player before winning is the biggest flaw in said system in my opinion.
