    Zegras is another of those "look at me go mommy" players that are useless without the puck.  90% of their time on ice they hurt their team.  Crap player.  Crap team. Crap fans.  Crap city.  Crap state.  Crap country.

    Lol okay. You obviously don't know what you are talking about and is a homer.

    The most annoying thing about the PP was just how easy and obvious the fix was. Who'd have thought that moving and allowing anyone to take the shot when they get an opening would be beneficial to the PP? Shocking.

     

    The penalty kill is a huge problem, and it's likely not as easily solved as the PP issues are. Benning may have to make a trade for a LD that can come in and kill some penalties. 

    Yeah. The PP coach needs to be fired. It took them 12 games to figure out that the PP players needed to move and you can't rely on 1 person (Petey) to shoot the puck

    If this team is in the tank by game 40 they might package Miller and Hogs for a Ferland type of top six forward.

    Garland is producing more in the top 6 than Hoglander. I like Hogs but we need a top 6 winger/center with size and speed if Miller is not going to re-sign.

    Why?

    If we are 40 games in and are still below 500. We should rebuild because something went incredibly wrong and the core guys cannot get it done.

    Greens emphasis on playing a safe defensive game reminds me of when AV started coaching the Canucks - back

    when the Sedins began to shoulder the weight and had yet to break into their greatness - in the first years of Luongos tenure -

    but we were a better team back then and played with much more cohesion.  
    But we did count on Luongo to win games which we did usually by one goal low scoring affairs.

     

    I recall Naslund in his final year looking disinterested saying that the team is no longer a run and gun team - it’s about defence and playing safe.

    AV said at that time that the Canucks didn’t have the talent to play a run and gun game 

    I think Green thinks the players he has don’t have the talent to play a possession or run and gun game.

    He doesn’t want to risk it. 
    we gave up a lot of goals last year.

    but in correcting that he has swung too far the other way. 
    This team is playing too conservative there is no room for creativity. 
    The talent be being wasted.

    its time for a fresh approach this defensive system is killing us. 

    Boeser and Petey are terrible when it comes to skating through into the Ozone.

  5. I only watched the highlights but I am still worried about PP1. I still say remove Miller. It is very easy to tell what Miller wants to do on the PP. Just look at this 5 v 3. He is literally looking at Petey and telling everyone where he was passing it to, he just got lucky the PK didn't catch it. I have seen so many times where Miller telepaths his plays like this. It is pretty frustrating.

    Yo what the hell, Green?! Why isn't our best player on a line with Miller and Petey anymore??? 

     

    Chiasson was due for 6 goals in one game. 

     

    GOD WHAT AN IDIOT! 

    Yeah not sure what Green was thinking putting one of the slowest guys on the team (Chiasson) with Miller and Petey while pitting their line against the 2 most dominant players in the league and one of the fastest player(McDavid) in the league.

    We got lucky they actually only scored once when the duo was on the ice.
