  1. Yes let’s sit Podkolzin and then play him on the wing he doesn’t usually play on and take away one his his greatest assets this team needs which is driving the net. Much easier to do on your off wing which is the position Podz likes to play. I get it’s a bit easier in your own zone and breaking out this way, but I’d much rather be utilizing Podkolzins strengths. This is what I don’t like about Green, doesn’t properly utilize his players and tries to make most of them play the same way in his crappy system. (Boeser net front presence on pp) Ever notice how physical/creative players are when they first get here and then it disappears? Look how much more gritty OEL & Garland are than the rest of our team. Also if pp1 is going to get that much time OEL should be on the unit with Hughes. Move Miller to the 2nd unit. Hughes can be the rover so we can actually get some movement on the pp.
  2. Put him in for Petey. Prob be better at face offs as well.
  3. He needs to stop worrying about building his “brand” and put some work in. Looks like he hasn’t added any weight or strength since his rookie season?
  4. Most pple love their uniforms and name. I think it’s you.
  5. He should have even more energy then. Where’s his motor that he had in his rookie season? He used to get pissed and chase pucks down when he lost it, now he just pouts or skates to the bench.
  6. Seriously, his compete level is what’s most concerning to me. Nowhere near his rookie season. He just seems arrogant and whiny to me. watch 5 on 3 and our pp will stand in one spot and play pass.
  7. I don’t understand a lot of the things he does. It’s time to drop Petey to the third, he looks like hot garbage.
  8. Look how much their pp moves!!!! Ours is an absolute joke. edit: that wasn’t a pp, we just suck.
  9. So he whines his players didn’t hit enough last game and he scratches Podz? How is anyone still defending this guy? Podz should be net presence on pp 1.
  10. Pettersson gets knocked off the puck easier than almost anyone in the NHL. He’s overhyped and plays nowhere near the caliber he did at the start of his rookie season. He doesn’t even have his motor anymore. Still a good player, but nowhere near the best player Canucks have ever had.
  11. This. Insane how some people still can’t see how bad the coaching is. How many years is it going to take for them to move around on the power play!?
  12. Have been saying this. He needs to go before he loses all his value. Even last year Boeser would be visibly annoyed with Miller constantly throughout the season.
  13. Funny, I said before the first game that Green needs to be fired and this team would go nowhere with him. Hope all the cdc cheerleaders can finally start waking up. Our systems are trash. We have way too much talent on this team to look this bad constantly.
  14. He’s really not very effective 5 on 5. Gets pushed off the puck sooo easily. Needs to get a lot stronger.
  15. I want to see Miller and Petey split up. Hoglander-Pettersson-Boeser Pearson-Horvat-Garland Miller-Dickinson-Podkolzin
  16. Those guys had heart and intensity. Bert was a beast. His rivalries with Phaneuf, Jackman, Walz, etc were awesome. Hockey was so much more entertaining back then. I’m a big fan of Pettersson, but he does a lot of pouting on the ice like Miller when things don’t go his way. He used to chase down the puck any time he lost it or messed up when he first arrived and had a way higher compete level. Now a lot of the time he just throws his head back and slowly skates to the bench. We’d be an absolute joke again this year without the compete level OEL and Garland bring to the team. Look at how much more Horvat has been engaged and how Canucks games are actually exciting to watch again even if they lose. That was one of JB’s best moves imo. Hopefully Miller and Petey take note. They need to be split up imo, they feed negatively off eachother.
  17. I wanted Miller traded after his first season. Knew he would never match it again and his constant pouting and giving up on plays probably wears on his teammates.
  18. This team will be dangerous once Boeser is back. Not quite sure how I feel about Rathbone, needs a little seasoning..
  19. He’s 92. Lammikko is 91. Cameraman just put it on Lammikko for some reason instead of Podz.
