  1. I think you're letting him off too easy. He's getting paid like a star and not playing that way. He's paid to score and put up big points not be a great defensive forward. Look at the really good platers they all have had to face the same issues you outline that EP does now, sometimes even worse then he has and they haven't missed a beat as far as being dominant forces and maintaining their production levels. This has gone on longer then what would be considered a temporary slump IMO. Either he's not as good as we thought he was, he's playing through an undisclosed injury or he's complacent and satisfied because we "showed him the money". Time will tell I guess but if this caries on through the entire season and the start of the next...well Bye bye EP... we should show him the door!
  2. Well at Least Willie had the guts and class to attend a press conference after he was fired not slither away silently like I'm too Green to be an NHL coach did
  3. Seriously???? Yeah they weren't at their best but do you honestly think Green's Canucks would have salvaged a point from that game and had a chance for 2. Was that a splash I heard as you jumped over the railing?
  4. 7 and oh..would we have believed that a month or so ago....Miller is clutch....and btw is Schenn not the best 750K the Canucks have ever spent? Almost 22 minutes, 5 hits and +1. On to 8 and oh!!!
  5. Hope Noah pans out. but....OJ was the only plus defenseman in Florida's 8-2 loss to Ottawa..me fears this trade will come back to bite us..That said.. go Canucks.. 10 game streak
  6. No, no, a thousand times no. I'd rather have Petey play defense
  7. IMO Green ad two big problems that caused the issues. 1. He made the players try and fit a system he wanted instead of implementing a system that fit the players and the skills they have. . 2. He was stubborn as heck (see point #1). The new coach seems to be the opposite of both those. I watched the Boston game and haven't seen our team seem as fast and pushing offensively in a long, long time.
  8. Demko SO.....Brock scores...PK 100%....PP scores....Schenn 7 hits...we win...that is all....
  9. The Fallout from Benning/Green's bumbling will be with us for some time. Thanks for the memories.
  10. He's got two Stanley Cup "rings" so I think his groove has been fine for a while lol. ...really like the guy
  11. ..and Garland continues to be clutch. Schenn is a solid, if slow, reliable anchor on defense
  12. Reading that is just 10 minutes of my life I'm never getting back
  13. I really think Green is the problem, well the system he wants them to play is. I just have this feeling that the better players don't believe that his dump and chase system is suited to their style/skills so they are not buying in or perhaps they are trying but they just can't change how they've played for years that got them to the NHL. It's not so much that a different body behind the bench will change things but someone who will build a system that works for the players strengths..at least a coach with the NHL experience to be able to assess what system would work with the players strengths, not building a system and trying to get the players to fit it. no matter what. I feel so sorry for OEL who wanted out of Arizona because he was tired of being on a losing team so he comes here expecting things to be better...he must feel like he's in Arizona the sequel.
  14. So Happy with the win but unless our "elite" players (Petterson, Boeser, Horvat, and lately Hughes) start producing this will be short lived joy
  15. OK. I agree fans like me don't have the hockey knowledge and experience of a Benning or a Green but even "just a fan" can see the system differences. Good teams carry the puck into the offensive zone most times, the don't give up possession by dumping it in and hoping the can get it back. Look at PP lots of movement and creativity ours looks pretty much the same almost every time. The system they use is the problem and who decides on the system. Those Hockey brains
  16. I think they should see what they can get for Boeser. Good shot, bad skater which will always limit him. What cold we get???
  17. What I heard..Blah, Blah, Blah...Ya know...Blah, Blah, Blah...Ya know...
