[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Vegas Golden Knights | Nov. 13, 2021
N4ZZY replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
It’s probably apathy with the team as well. Nobody wants to spend a hundred bucks for parking, food merchandise at the game only to watch a loss. And one that isn’t even entertaining. The team sucks ass. They’re bad from literally their top players. Boeser isn’t producing. Looks like he’s injured. Petey is obviously so behind the eight ball that by the time he gets going next season is already here. Where’s Bo been? Miller while getting his points hasn’t been very good defensively and gives away pucks way you much. Green has a better roster. It’s his job to get the most. The max out of the team he’s given by the GM. The team should be better just based off of their talent alone. -

Mac I don't really see if he would have produced here. He was claimed off waivers. It happens. Did he deserve a roster spot with the way he's performed during training camp and the pre-season? I don't like Chaisson either, but maybe he outperformed Mac during training camp. I can understand rewarding players for working hard. That's definitely a culture the team needs to reinforce. Gadjovich I'm a little more upset with. I think he worked his tail off, and proved to be on the team. He adds an element to the team that we don't have right now. Toughness. A willingness to scrap, stand up for teammates, those are intangibles that every single team needs. We don't have that. Like, at all. -

Green will get another chance to coaching another NHL team. The sense from the league is that he's a good coach, with a bad construction of the roster perhaps. But like many first time NHL coaches, they almost never do well in their first job. It's their second, or third opportunities after having time to reflect on their work and what they could've done better, is what makes them to grow. It's like that for any job, really, and unfortunately. Benning on the other hand, may never be a GM for another franchise again. He will get work as a scout, maybe even head scout if he wants to continue to remain in the NHL, but as GM? Everyone in the league has seen his body of work. There are no surprises there. He's not a top tier GM. But GM's and coaches are a part of an old boys club (isn't that what they call it?). It's always about who you know. So I doubt that they'll be out of the NHL. They'll be back in, given a period of time. -

Well, he doesn't have any, after being on the job and his role for 8 years now. I can't believe he's been GM of this team for that long. That's crazy to me. If this year is a failure, it might just be the undoing of both GM and his staff, as well as the head coach and his staff. -

How do you know? Well, we're not &^@#ing dumb, and we're calling out all the $&!# and his tendency to just want people to do things his &^@#ing way. Hey, Francesco, if you're wanting to meddle, why don't you just take the &^@#ing GM role of your own &^@#ing team! And then fire yourself. Jackass. -

Winning culture? This organization hasn't done a lot of that under his management the last 8 years. -

Probably should have played Hunt instead of Rathbone. You have a journeyman who's been in the league. Hunt couldn't have been worse than Rathbone was. Need to let Rathbone play in all situations, let him simmer in Abby and communicate with the coaching staff in Abby about his game and whether he warrants and earns a call up when there are injuries. He was certainly called up by the Canucks. But did he play well to warrant that call up? Call ups should be on merit, and what the players are doing in the AHL to get a call up to the big leagues. If they're not ready or playing well, then they remain where they are. I don't even know what kind of culture the Canucks as an organization is promoting and has established. I mean, Benning has been on record to have said that he's taking things day to day. What kind of overall plan is that? For a person who's leading a multi-million dollar organization, that reeks of incompetence and non-confidence. I'm not sure if after eight years on the job, if he's just not a good GM. -

What about scratching EP40 for a game? What about Miller tonight? What happened with the guy? -

He definitely has heart and character. I'm not questioning that. But Linden had more Linden carried his team on his back. Which is why he's so beloved in this city. -

So you think it's a mismatch in terms of player personnel and coaching personnel? I mean the roster that Benning has composed should be doing better. They're definitely underperforming at the moment. -

I guess. But players like Linden don't grow on trees. He was a very special player not only in his talent and skill, but his heart and character. -

Yea, I get it, man. I'm a fan of the team. Was a little embarassed to wear my team's jersey when they didn't put any effort really in tonight's game. They have been boring, mainly because the players aren't producing. Frustrating because they're not winning, and apathetic, sadly, because we're kind of used to this team's performance, not just this season, but over decades. I'm not sure what's going on here. Why is this team so bad this season? We're almost 15 games into the season, and we're 2 games under .500. Lose on Saturday, and then we're 3 games under .500. If we don't win any of those road games, we're falling farther and farther behind the "playoff" race. -

I mean, they essentially mentored the guy, so I'm not really surprised that he's more Sedin than Linden. -

When you lose 7-1, the players aren't just having an "off night". Something is deeply wrong with this team. Where do you even begin to ask questions, worse yet, where are the answers. Why is this team so bad? -

I like Rathbone, but let's all remember that he's a rookie, what was he? A 5th round draft choice? Tonight's loss wasn't on him. The entire team played didn't even show up. Played like they wanted Green fired. I have no idea who the &^@# this team is, but they aren't the Canucks. -

I said I'd try to be positive about the team. But after this game. It's hard to be positive about much of anything after what I saw tonight. Are heads going to roll soon? -

Yeah, that's awesome. We need Hamonic on the defense. Our defense is so much better for it. -

OOF. 31 percent. Damn, Canucks better stay out of the box tonight or the game could get ugly. Hoping Demko is sharp tonight.
