  1. They can put that line at the top all they want but we all know that’s the second line.
  2. That and it keeps the other 3 forward lines together, which I’m guessing is the point of this lineup. IMO it’s a good thing considering the chemistry they have shown together. Miller-Pettersson-Boeser By far our best Offensive line. Not a fan of putting all of our apples in one basket, but so far more successful than splitting them up. Roussel-Gaudette-Virtanen Fantastic 3rd line. Great chemistry. Schaller-Beagle-Motte Undeniable chemistry. Great shutdown 4th line. Have played fantastic together. ...and if that doesn’t work there is always the Green Blend-o-matic 3000.
  3. Super proud of the boys tonight. Some greasy goals and just a really gutsy win. That’s the kind of character I like to see from this team! Go Canucks Go!
  4. Oh Captain My Captain! Great shift by Bo and great finish by Tanev!
  5. I love how with most of Pettersson’s goals you’re not sure if they went in for a split second because they are all laser beams.
  6. And of course the guy that should have got the penalty scores seconds later... wtf
  7. How tf is there no penalty there?!?!? Blatant hit from behind in the numbers
  8. Pettersson changed his skates back to the goalie radius? Source?
  9. Damn. Gotta give credit where it’s due. That was an insane passing play by the Knights. Let’s get it back boys! Go Canucks Go!

  11. Even Petey getting in on the greasy goals! I like what I’m seeing from the boys tonight!!!
  12. Hell yeah boys! Another greasy goal in front of the net. That’s what I like to see!
  13. I used to defend Green, but it’s getting harder for me to do that. The systems that are currently in place do not suit the offensive players on this team, and our defensive systems are even worse. No more collapsing and giving the opposition so much time and space. We get destroyed 5v5 playing such a passive defensive system. To me Benning has put together a good team on paper. I don’t think he is the problem (He won’t be on the hot seat unless we miss the playoffs next season imo). It is up to the coaching staff and ultimately the players to execute. I think they need a new (and more experienced) voice behind the bench, and to employ an offensive strategy based on puck possession to be successful. In my opinion, Benning should let Green, Brown, and Baumgardner go. Bring in an experienced head coach and let him pick his staff, but retain Manny and Ian Clark. I think the players have lost all confidence in our systems. This team needs a shakeup in the worst way. We can still salvage this season if we act before it’s too late. As soon as the holiday roster freeze is over, pull the trigger Jim. Your team needs it.

      Goose may be adept at polishing turds, but I'd rather see Baumer fired before Green.

       

      It's not like I have a vendetta, I just havent liked the fact we don't break out as a group. The most glaring indictment on Baumer is the goddam 5v5 collapse / passive box bull$&!# own zone shenanigans. Arrrfgg

      Holy &^@#ing hell, it's like they're allergic to the puck in their own &^@#ing zone. "Stay away boys, don't get close to it unless it's on the boards! It might explode!"

      Our structure is poor and predictable. This is how teams see us and laugh. Video below:
