Benning was always praised for his drafting, and wanting Pettersson as his guy, but according to Linden, he would’ve picked someone else. Think Benning would’ve preferred Glass? Vilardi? Those were the names heard around then by most. No way we would’ve been happy with anyone taken after Pettersson.

      Dude never posted again. One of those things that’ll be immortalized in the Canucks fan base. Just like “Burrows? Do we really need him?”

        I mean, would you post again? I’d be too embarrassed.

        I wonder if he made a new account and saw himself getting made fun of occasionally.
