elvis15 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 yes - if by "everyone" you mean the people who wanted him gone, and by "everybody" you mean the people who didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginu Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Well, as much as I dislike his coaching decisions at times, I'd have to agree and say he will be missed from the bench... Sure he's been criticized to hell and back, however he's been the most accomplished coach for this organization and it will be very hard to replace that. With that being said, I hope some other team picks him up. Thanks for all the great times and accomplishment's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Line Juggler Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Kind of sad to see him go, but it is obviously time for a change. Au Revoir Alain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigano Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 it is sad to see him go, but he will be coaching next season. He did some good things but also made some big mistakes. Keith Ballard has been unfairly treated by AV from day 1 and this season the Luongo treatment was questionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VancouverStyle Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Alain sounds like a stand up guy, i wish him the best in any future opportunities that may arise for him. I just can't believe all the negativity that surrounds him. I was expecting some, but not as much as what i have been reading on cdc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hindsight Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I for one am going to miss AV. One of two Canuck coaches to get the Jack Adams award. Got the only two prez trophies this franchise has ever seen. 1 of 3 SCF appearances. Coached the only Art Ross(2), Selke, Hart, and Jennings trophy winners this team has ever seen. It has been a pleasure watching you grow as a coach with our core AV. You will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watermelon Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 You guys are pathetic. First Luongo and now AV. You guys call for their heads but as soon as they leave or prepare to leave you guys start to feel sorry for them and want them back.

AngNMGN99 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Overall he did a very good job (recordwise etc), but benching a goalie when he's keeping the team in the games the last 2 playoff series looked a little bit too desperate...still likes his pressconferences, but like some said: it was time!

BuretoMogilny Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 from a hockey side...i am glad he is gone. from a human side.. it is sad to se him go. he was a great coach who was here for too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 While I may not be an AV fan, I hope he rebounds well and makes a team like Phoenix/Nashville a perennial playoff team. I definitely think he has it in him. Although he has said some dumb things about his players, he has always acted with class with the media and the NHL. Way to leave on a good note AV.

lolwut? Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 What on earth is with all the sentimentality up in here..? The way some of you are talking its as if AV was your father or something.. He was our coach, he got to coach and do what he loves and will continue to on another team I am sure.. The canucks players I could understand having some emotion towards it, but us the fans? Not to mention that one week everyone is happy to flame him to death and then today its all "we'll miss you Alain!!! *sob*" I don't get it clearly.. I mean this is a business at the end of the day is it not? He's been here for near 8 years... Sheesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
