  1. Nice to see Dickenson in on that one. hopefully gives him some confidence and the ability to actually stick with Garland and Podz without the line blender blending.
  2. Of course Juolevi is a cut above those 3. oops! we traded our best LD PK guy already....
  3. Just fire Green already Not because he's a terrible coach, because they need a new voice behind the bench, a fresh perspective, and a new on ice system structure that the players can embrace and believe in. I remember when AV started with the Canucks and his first year he implemented a very defensive based system because he knew he didn't have the horses to drive offensive play. Once the Sedins and Co could drive play he adapted his style to match his roster. . Signs of an experienced coach that can adapt. Green doesn't seem to have the experience to adjust his coaching style to work with his roster it seems so time to move on
  4. Would like to see our AHL'rs protected a bit more on D, especially on the road. OEL - Bowey Hughes- Burroughs Rathbone- Myers either 2-1 Canucks in OT, or 5-1 ducks and Greener shown the door.
  5. As Horvat said last game, ... embarrassing. slow starts, being too tired, lacking confidence, still learning, "thats a good team over there".. the excuses are many. Our core is ready with at least a few years under their belt so now we need the coaching change to see what we really have.
  6. So many to blame , so little time to save the season. A depleted defense that was already suspect, 2 top PK'rs out of the line up, and a coach's system that doesn't protect the team from adversity is a recipe for disaster. Green, Baumer need to go for starters. His style / system doesn't work for this team or any perhaps. Brad Shaw to take over in the interim, until they find a Bruce Boudreau'esk' coach with a proven "NHL" track record, not AHL Waiting for other coaches to get canned and jumping on it would be the measured thing to do.
  7. And your Vancouver Canucks coaching squad!..... Don Cherry- Head coach - Bobby Orr and Doug Gilmour assistants
  8. 1. Tell Petey to take a postgame interview instead of protecting him 2. Put him on the PK and off the PP - can't get any worse 3. Throw him on the 4th line to grind it out Wake him up instead of coddling him
  9. or Phil Pritchard, the official keeper of the cup takes bench grinder to that 2010 team and erases them completely. They all knew what was going on and hoped it would disappear so they could focus on the playoffs. there was lots of talk about us picking Beach or Hodgson at the time I recall. wonder how that would have turned out if we did.. better for Beach for sure as the Sedins wouldn't allow any of that BS for starters.
  10. that's great news he got an assist in his first game with Abby so he's ready to bring a pile of offense! OEL - Poolboy Hughes- Harmonica Burroughs- Myers- Burrows could play left or right wing so i'm sure our 2.0 version can do the same Hunt- Schenn
  11. - Green and his new defense first system that should have been implemented last year or the year before.. - Petey not up to speed with the long gap between games- he had a slow start last year as well and got rolling - Brock just starting to produce after his injury - no Sutter/ Motte/ Hamonic so our PK/AHL bottom 6 is killing us - Podz needs time in AHL, he's not ready - Dickenson needs consistent line mates and an identity Positives - dual coyotes - Getting something for Juolevi- see he's injured again All the games are close and for the most part and we are improved in our own end outside of the passive PK cup half full feels they will win 2 of the next 3 games (fingers crossed!)
  12. I have no problem having Podzter sit for a game to step back and see how the game goes from the stands. They are not penalizing him, but giving a valuable asset the opportunity for a game reset, and watch his first reg season game from the stands and learn. MUST win tonight 4-1 Myers, Pearson, Petey, OEL
  13. This is what needs to get through their heads after a dumpster fire like this
  14. We revert back to poor defensive habits when under pressure still.
  15. yep, rather have Burroughs in if Quinn cant go next game... 2 righties on a pairing is better then Hunt tonight
  16. 3 hits each... lol Need Schenn to plow someone into the boards and then Garland doing Garland things....
