We had like, what, 2 shots in the last 2 and a half minutes? Nobody went to the crease or screened Marky. All we did was passing the puck around the premeter just like pp. And nobody wanted to take a shot either.
What happened to just getting the puck through and pounding the rebounds? They were down by 2 goals. Where's some goddamn urgency?
Benning must be feeling really full from the middle fingers he's gotten from all the ex-Canucks.
You have plenty of time for more, Jimbo. Never worry about running out of time for that.
Green is perhaps a better coach than given credit for.
But to be honest, it's hard not to think what could a veteran high-profile head coach like Boudreau, Quinville, Gallant, Trotz or Bylsma have achieved with this core. (or will achieve)
1st goal: Schmidt's kicking motion assist to Riley
2nd goal: Beagle totally left Matthews all by himself between the slots
3rd goal: Hughes lost the puck, but then Sutter failed to cover Kerfoot.
Boeser goes behind the net so often even though he's not good at playing along the boards at all.
Petey never wants to shoot unless there's a clear line of sight to the net.
Quinn's points shots are muffins and often blocked.
For JT shooting the puck is like the very last resort, although he has a canon of shot.
Sutter only wants to shoot backhand.
Nobody moves his feet except for Hoglander, and our passes are at half the speed of the leafs' in all 3 zones. You can't blink, but that's exactly what they did in those 11 seconds to put that 40 minutes of decent effort into big nothing.
It would have been for his (and the Canucks') best interest if JB let him walk this off season -- A fresh start elsewhere for Jake and we could have signed Toffoli.
Now chained with a backloaded 2-year contract and a series of healthy scratches he's nearly untradable.
