73 Percent Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 More and more hockey analysits/reporters starging to openly question AV's personnel decisions. Valk openly criticizing the decision to go with Edler on the PP over Garrison. Farhan Lalji questioning the handling of Ballard and Kassian. Here we are, 1 week from playoffs and no one knows who they will play with or in some cases, what position they will play, if at all. A good coach shoudl be able to identify good pairings and lines by observing the strengths, weaknesses and tendencies of players. It appears after 48 games, AV still has no clue where or how to find chemistry. Now we hear how great a job he is doing in turning the Sedins into better two-way players. As if we don't have enough tof those already FFS. Scoring has been the rproblem for this team in the last 3 years not defence. WIth the exception of the CHicago game, they have and continue to look like a team that is confused and out-of-sync. Unless they seriously elevate their execution and intensity, they will be out early. If so, I hope MG pulls the plug on the AV experiment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksSayEh Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Don't get why Weise has been scratched. He was playing just fine and showed he can up his game when the time calls for it. Durable, fast and physical with PK/defense play. WTH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73 Percent Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 If we start next season with av behind the bench I will be equally shocked and infuriated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C750X Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 This game will probably be boring. I will watch it until Sj vs LA comes on. That will be a good game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 AV still doesn't think it's important to have a good fourth line apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Man these lines suck bad. Not Sestito coming in or Ebbett still in at 4th line center. Roy go 3rd with Higgins and Kassian, Kesler with Burrows and Ray, Sedins with Hansen, then Ebbett out, Lapierre in between Sestito and Weise. I don't know what AV is thinking with these lines. 3-0 Canucks. Continue fire from 3rd period, getting ready to jump in with momentum to playoffs.

Honky Cat Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 You cant really 'maufacture' intensity when there's not much on the line for neither team..We will probably win,but I dont think I'll be crushed if we lost either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
