Can’t wait to tell my kids about the glorious Jimmy Vesey Canucks era

Whoof
We were sooooo bad.
🤢 the plan was no plan
This reminds me, I need to book a therapy appointment.
Boy I was so excited to get Schmidt – can’t believe I got bamboozled
That was dark….
holy shit that D 🫣
That could be the opening credits to a horror movie.
Almost forgot about Holtby and Vesey being on the Canucks completely
Dark times….wow
That bottom-6 should have Benning put in front of the UN and answer to these war crimes.
was Petey injured?
Hey, I remember some of those names!
That looks like a preseason lineup. Good lord.
Gonna go out on a limb and guess we lost this game
May?
They were playing hockey in May, how bad could they be? /s
Much of this subreddit defended Benning until basically his firing. Worst GM in franchise history.
Holy that was dark
I legit thought this was a pre-season lineup until I caught the date 💀
Remember when people were swearing up and down that Highmore and Lockwood were going to be essential parts of the fourth line for years to come?
Dark days.
This team capped out too lol
Let’s not forget that this game took place after the playoffs had already started.
Where is petey? Cant seem to remember
“Why isn’t anybody taking Kole Lind.”
– James Elmer Benning, 2017 NHL Draft.
Oh good god lol was this when like half the team had covid because of Gaudette? Urghhh 😆
AND we did not get a 1st round pick
Ptsd
imagine living through this and not getting a top 3 pick. Unbelievable.
What the fuck is that roster, woof
And this was after how many years of high draft picks?
Lmao all i remember is pain from looking at this
God i love how far weve come
The joke is not how bad that roster was.
The joke is that we were capped out *and* had fewer picks than we were allotted—including not having first-rounders for *two years running.*
I fucking don’t understand how people defended Benning so hard back then. It was bad enough to have a gangrenous thumb acting as our GM, but to also be relentlessly gaslit by fellow fans?
Christ I’m so glad that era is over.
Man that’s so weird I always forget we had Holtby.
Look how far we’ve come
Boy, having nobody in the building to boo the daylights off this lineup when they got lit up on the regular during the pandemic sure extended both Green and Benning’s time here.
The 2018-19 team lineups were pretty bad too, but holy fuck, man.
Where was Petterson?
Why was Colon (Kole Lind) on the first line?
I’ll always remember vesys resting bitch face lol
Brother eughhh
Wow that’s brutal
Jesus
I love JT Miller now, but I hated that trade. Part of me still does. He’s part of the reason our window to compete is so weird compared to most teams coming out of a rebuild. Through no fault of his own, he was the absolute right player to target at the wrong time.
Miller Boeser and Horvat really decided to play an AHL game one day
Petey was injured but this lineup still looks like a pre season lineup
In Allvin I trust.
We sucked hard
Context is completely missing here.
This was the year when Covid ruined everything and we were already eliminated from playoffs.
Things were so out of whack that we played two matinees against Calgary after the playoffs had already started.
