  1. Good context. Imo, it is the difference in coaching a prospect/AHL'er trying to make a name for himself vs an NHL millionaire
  2. I agree, a SOLID winning streak will help make this all go away.
  3. I can sense frustration in your post and it is always nice to get a win against Vegas
  4. Any one else, notices how the local media asks there questions ? Even Green, shows them no respect.
  5. I wonder how the Staff, tends to conduct there speeches
  6. King wasting spit or showering every one with spit.
  7. Imo, Green & King have a history together and he was hired with perhaps Greens' insistant (?). Not knowing, the internal context but the mediocre results we had seen for the most part these past few seasons, seems to indicate, he was hired because he knew the right people/person rather than anything else. Anyways, he can't BS the result, which shows he is not qualified for the position cause his peers from the other them has exposed him as unqualified.
  8. Fans won't allow it cause they will get enough loser points to lower the percentages. Just look at last year, when they went from 5th to 9th due to the loser points against the Flakes. With hindsight, it worked out cause they were intending of trading the picks - anyways.
  9. At this point: it seems obvious that the leadership group has no REAL clue, on how to build a winning culture cause the onwers impatient is demanding band aids; the very opposite of what Yzerman is being allowed to do in Detroit.
  10. That fourth line with ChaseOn won't be seeing alot of icetime; and hopefully, it doesn't mean ChaseOn PP experiment is back - smh.
  11. Hoping for a better showing against a Vegas team missing some key forwards.
  12. Players have VERY short memories; and (imo) it is mostly about the stats to get the BIG paychecks. As for Green & friends there records are well earned and will be with them wherever they go. Ofcourse, it will depend on there next bosses, if they will buy there BS over context; and give them another opportunity.
  13. Preferably a coach with a winning record cause that would indicate that he will be willing to give a different set of opinion.
  14. Ditto - like I stated Green & friends presented themselves as great coaches and leadership bought the hype & fluff but there overall record contradicts the fluff.
  15. Yup, his attitude in the last presser - doesn't command NATURAL respect (imo) and it seems (from my POV, of working under a foreman with similar traits) that his only tool for motivating players is managing there ice time. Not good cause it means a divided locker room between the favorites & everyone else. Overall, this reflects the internal politics within the leadership group (from Aquaman down) and it makes sense why MEDIOCRITY is the natural outcome cause nobody has a clue, of what it takes to build a winning culture - all talk but no balls to follow through. Sure, a playoff run or a winning streak here & there can further justify the status qou but the overall results don't lie; and it indicates a leadership group (assembled by Aquaman) that is restrained to be organic rather organized to just follow.
  16. Ditto; but the choice between waiver castoffs and the prospects, are on Green insisting his preference for veteran players. Funny thing: even the veterans are having issues succeeding in his system; it seems the result would had been no difference from a rookie.
  17. Yeah, that was the narrative being talked about back then by the 'EXPERTS' and there on anything old: OLD MEANS STUPID.
  18. This narrative of him being a desirable coach is all fluff - imo; and it is comparable to falling in love with a strpper in a strip bar. Anyways, his record speaks for itself; and I've heard from Drance (seems to be another wannabe Friedman) that ownership likes Green, hence the extension & re vamp roster. When the main reason, for keeping an employee is because the person is well liked rather than the results then mediocrity is what naturally follows.
  19. Credentials are only a formality cause most/all the time: the person that gets hired to fill an important position has already been chosen by the person doing the hiring. Imo, King acted/BS'ED his way into the position but the result is exposing his ineptitude for the role. As the saying goes - BS can only take so far !
  20. Good points about Green, wanting his (waiver) veterans over the developing player from the teams AHL club. The Chassion & Hunt choice over Gadj, MaC & OJ are on Green; and the loss of those players depleted any cheap depth the team had - over waiver castoffs. At the very least, if Gadj & OJ were kept - the fans can get excited about the teams prospect rather than watching waiver castoffs
  21. Same: just checking the forums and the tone to see how the game is going or for any Canuck related news
