Missing you these days JM!!! Come back soon

I feel like the Canucks organization owes Bruce an apology - let the guy finish out the year

I like Bruce and am divided
If they don't want him then let him go (I understand they didn't hire him and may not like the way they see things, maybe too relaxed in the room after losing)
Maybe they want to bring a new guy in as for the team not to struggle with new changes at the beginning of the next season (like the last 2 years have)
I prefer to keep Bruce and let the Canucks (free fall if they are going too) and expose the character of players as they finish off the year
-
@Bell Aquilini should apologize by selling.
-
Mixed feelings. He's a dead man walking, he knows that. He knows he isn't coming back. Letting him go would be a mercy to some extent.
At the same time bringing in another coach at this point won't do anything, if anything it might hurt our sinking to the bottom, which is what we should be doing at this point. Plus, there should be more head coach candidates later on, we've yet to see a coach fired this season. I'd rather us take a more thorough approach to finding a head coach.
I've no issue with letting Bruce ride out the season though, but management would need to come out and state that they're doing just that. There would need to be transparency on that front.

So we loved Bruce last year and now he is the problem? SO CONFUSED
-
What time is the Oilers-Avs game.... oh right BAHAHAHAHA
-
I feel so dirty calling cheering for Calgary but God I hate the Coilers - even more with Keith on the team

Tank?
Remember when some thought with summer signings the cup was coming
I can't recall how we were to retain people with expiring contracts?
So was this team constructed to be better for this year only and with more let downs after we again would have lost people for nothing (especially if we had made the playoffs and old guard still in place)? Just up and groggy still wondering what the past plan would have been?

The Flames obsession with ex-Canucks continues haha
-
Damn - Bruce says the goal is to win the week and bam!! - boys go out and do that for him. Love how this guy breaks things up into small goals not the typical we have to win 45 of the next 60 games etc. That's coaching!!!

Bruce is all about changing behaviour, and a long-time strategy for behaviourists wanting to change behaviour is to give the subject short term, attainable goals with high feedback and accentuation of the positives. Nobody ever got better being told how bad they were. Bruce is one example of how experience and wisdom trumps youthful exuberance and impulsiveness. He seems to have all the answers because he's seen all of this before and knows the plot, the dialogue and the steps needed to pull out of this season-long slump.

McDavid's house - is it jus me or is it very underwhelming?
- Show previous comments 21 more

@Brad Marchand - so what you're saying is that McDavid bought his house for 6 million dollars but it's probably only really worth 1.5-2 million?
-
So remind me again why Leaf fans think Matthews is better than McDavid???

2 games in and Mark Spector, Gene Principe and Oilers nation already planning the parade down Whyte ave - #leafswest

Outside of their surprise 2017 2nd round appearance + a couple of upsets in the late 90's + a 2006 cup run, the Edmonton Oilers have largely been irrelevant to the sport of hockey since 1992.
The city as a whole is almost irrelevant outside of Western Canada.
Most self-respecting men, women, and hockey players only choose to live and work in Edmonton because the jobs they seek usually aren't available in other cities. That, or they have close family ties to Edmonton. You take away the Oilers, CFL Elk, their oil industry, and West Edmonton mall, and the city of Edmonton becomes a sub-standard city in almost every single aspect.
If I was an Edmontonian, or a media member of Edmonton, I would keep my mouth shut, learn a bit of humility, and learn not to count my chickens before they've hatched.

Funny how people were giving me funny looks not that long ago for still wearing my mask and lo and behold here in Albertabama masks are mandatory once again! Let the whining begin.

Yes, I can relate. I stepped into a convenience store at a gas
station two weeks ago. I was the only one wearing a mask.
None of the 3 employees, or the 12 other customers, was
wearing one. A few people did look at me as if I were a little
"different," No, my fly wasn't down, JM.
Today, I stopped into that same convenience store and everyone
was following the rules and wearing a mask. It was nice to see that.

Since my Seahawks are out is there really any other team to cheer for than the BILLS!!!!!!

Anyone else wondering how long until Calgary signs Toffoli?

You have to admit - it's a bold strategy on how to beat us - sign some of our great players. i do wonder though if Trevling realizes he only faces us what 4 times a year
I think this goes to show the Benning haters that he does know how to build a team and I think he is learning from his mistakes like the Erikkson contract but being prudent on the contracts he offers now.

Conor has COVID 19?
-
Anyone else ok with a Demko/Talbot tandem if Marky were to move on?
-
So the last time the Canucks were in the playoffs - Tampa and Boston played each other..... is history going to repeat itself and we get another shot at the Bruins????
