  1. The irony is the breakout drawn up is fairly normal. Multiple pass lane options for d man. What we do not do is take that direct path. We circle back and also drop pass that said, the drop pass is common as it allows for a rusher to take the puck under speed and leave the forechecker flat footed my issue is when to get into the o zone we don’t progress deep enough before we hook and either pass back or across. That causes blue line turnovers the other frustrating thing is the pass attempts to players in no better position than the passer was. Just wastes time, gains nothing and risks a turnover we also need a legit shot from the point. I love Hughes but his shot is not a threat
  2. Breaking news... the Canucks have now set an NHL record in racking up “moral victories” while managing to lose 9 of 11 games a rare feat indeed
  3. This roster can be successful if the players are used in appropriate roles in an appropriate system at an appropriate time in games are they?
  4. This “coaching staff” simply can not manage a hockey game while it’s happening we had them on the ropes 2-0 and we needed to roll 4 lines and grind them down. Basic hockey But instead, our geniuses decide to shorten the bench which in stops the hitting and tires out top end. We turn soft and it flips the game trying to “defend” a 2-0 in the second period is ridiculous and it tells your team the coaches have zero trust in line 4 but what do I know? Green and his staff are so nice and amazing. Clearly the future is bright with the team in their hands
  5. Cant give up possession like that no clue if that was and awful shot or an awful pass
  6. Game shifted in second period when Green decided to revert to playing soft thats the message he sent when he sat line 4
  7. The game is slowly turning you need guys crashing and banging to keep the energy up it just seems like Green simply does not understand that
  8. Man you have to send him and the team the message that you are are happy with standing up and you are rewarding him with ice time. That is what a real coach would do what message does it send when you staple him to the bench? classic Green head scratcher
  9. Beginning to think Green was told to dress Mac he certainty did not reward him for standing up for Hogs so it makes me wonder if he wanted him in the lineup at all
