timmylu1 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Travis green is a great coach and I truly hope he survives this rebuild. He can’t help this tire fire of a defence. Also I’m over the Hughes banter. Canucks will probably finish dead last and still pick 5. Nothing new to see here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyotasfan Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Just now, PhillipBlunt said: Vancouver couldn't convert to save their lives, no doubt. The penalties called on Vancouver were weak as hell, and not giving that turd Pateryn a 5 minute major for the boarding is obscene. I agree , and if the refs are trying to keep the calls even between the teams a 5 minute major should offset that 2 man advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuitnTie Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 At this point, MDZ should sit and bring up Juolevi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only so much can be laid at the feet of the defensemen (outside of Del Zotto). They are running plays configured by Baumgartner and clearly Nolan doesn't design plays that work to his players strengths at all. I can't see how Green keeps this guy around, and is okay with it.

canuck2288 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Nolan needs to be fired played Pouliot like he was a first stringer and now MDZ he he is a useless coach and was a useless player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Green has his own worries such as getting an anemic offensive line to go get a goal. Ultimately, its Baumgartner's job as the assistant coach - who is in charge of the defense to deploy and make decisions. Green can't be worried running over to take over what a competent assistant coach should be able to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of keeping the calls even, how about they actually penalize the players actually breaking a rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sits in the press box for 14 games straight while Nylander has 9 goals in 54 games of power play time and a regular #1 line shift. Marner has 9 goals in the same 54 games with a regular shift. Neither have ever been in the press box despite a complete disinterest in defense. If Leivo played a regular shift he would probably score 20+ goals in a season.--I hope... but he needs to improve his skating, like Bo hired a speed skating coach for example If I didn’t read this in Tommy Wiseau’s voice it would have given me a headache...

King Heffy Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 9 minutes ago, canuck2288 said: Starting to lose faith in Green MDZ takes a penalty that causes 2 goals and Green puts him out with 1:45 left and he proceeds to let the Wild kill the clock with his inept play. Way to reward him Green too bad you hold Goldy to an entirely diffent standard Was pointed out in the intermission that the reason Greener's hard on Goldy is because the team actually sees a future for him. MDZ has a future selling insurance. Goldy's historically responded well after a benching so this could be worth it if he comes back motivated.
