Daniel Sedin or Henrik Sedin

Yeah.

Or like Montreal a year ago.

right by the time conor bedard's third contract second contract is up or by the time like you want to be in that position and by the way that's not necessarily to land conor bedard this is one of those situations where the fun sexy prize is worth striving toward because that's what you need to do anyway right like it might be a star defenseman it might be you know a

Lithuanian forward.

Like, who cares?

It's not about the one guy.

It's about positioning yourself to take that sort of swing to put a dose of nitrous in your engine as you try to pull out of what's probably going to be a multi-year stretch in which the Canucks are very hard-pressed to win.

By the way,

colorado and vegas one game away yep another another one another one like you have to go back the last time a team that wasn't montreal playing in the 2021 season because they don't count during that weird pandemic year but the last team that there's only been four teams that have won the pacific since 2019 have won the the west yeah since 2019 four teams have won the west since 2019 like

Use that as a measure of just how much talent you need to amass.

And it's daunting.

It's daunting.

It's going to be extremely unlikely that Rian Johnson and the Sedin twins achieve this.

They are very unlikely, given what they are inheriting, to succeed.

And I don't think it's negative to say that.

I think it's clarifying.

What they are about to attempt, what this incoming Canucks management group is about to attempt,

The odds are massively stacked against them.

And if you understand that and really wrap your head around it and like sit with it, right?

Allow it to be something you know, bone deep.
