Its embarrassing. You don't see a single coach acting that wait. Its like he wants to get fired.
Why not ... sit at home and collect $2 m/yr for the next 4 years if he's not hired somewhere else.
-
Corrado with 2 interference penalties ... not ready for the big league?
-
This game is so exciting, I'm voluntarily doing earth hour again.
-
Is this the kind of exciting up tempo game we can expect next year if MG and Torts both stay?
-
I'm beginning to think that this should be handled internally and then everyone come out publically on same page. All this jostling for position shows just how fractured ownership, GM, and coach is at.
-
Good news is that I like the fast, up tempo, puck possession style that Gillis envisions is best for the core roster of Canucks. However, if anyone wavered on the vision, I think Gillis did. After Boston won, it was the model of power, nastiness, mixed with skill. After Chicago won, it's back to speed and skill. Now it's back to up tempo, offensive approach hockey.
Bad news is that it seems he left a door way for Torts to come back if he is willing and capable of retooling himself to coaching that style of hockey. Can Torts do it? Is he willing to?
One statement that wasn't the most supportive of JT - "I believe any coach should be able to coach our team with the current roster and resources" (something to that extent).
-
Sounds like he is positioning himself to be President of hockey operations with a vision.
Step aside from GM job and get a coach that can coach the up tempo roster ... a coach kind of like AV, I guess.
Please don't whine about Toronto media ... sound like the players of old. I thought you instituted a no whining culture. Don't pay attention to the Toronto media.
-
Gillis should stay as the custodian at Rogers Arena.
OK, that's a bit mean ... he should be the Zamboni driver.
-
Treat the rest of the season like training camp ... let anyone and everyone play. Tinker with combinations. Bring up some kids. Separate the team into two ... blue and white and send one to Calgary and the other to Edmonton.

I am more sickened by some of the fans posting on this message board than I am by our team. Cheering for and advocating that our players injure members of another team? Come on guys grow up
Agree +1 ... but some of the other mods on CDC are like this! See the end of Anaheim GDT.

Just met Torts after the game, and he was by FAR the nicest Canuck that stopped. He stopped, made sure everyone got a signature or a picture with him. All very politely and with a smile. He's a very nice guy, contrary to his on-ice image.
nobody questions his niceness as a person. But $2m/yr is a lot to pay for a nice guy that can't produce W's.
His post game interview said it all ...

Obi wan Kenobi ... please stop already. The more you post, the more you reveal your stupidity.

Why are people surprised about tonight?
Now we can lay it to rest, all the optimist can be realist now, we are all Canucks again.
-
Think Buffalo wouldn't consider both Sedins for their number 1?
... are you remotely serious ? -
Kesler auditioning for AV and Sather ...
-
Smart guy won ... idiot lost. Torts, take padawan to go and meet hero next door.
-
Hero was better than padawan tonight. Don't worry, Torts will take you over and meet him after the game.
-
Prediction: Some part of the game, AV goes into uncontrollable laughter as Bieska skates by visitor's bench.

AV trolls Torts by putting 4th liners on to start the game.
Lookout AV, Torts is coming to the visitor locker room but you know all the escape routes.
-
Just saw clip on CBC ... AV was chumming it up with MG and Gilman in the stands watching the Canucks practice ... interesting.
Maybe MG is asking AV what the scoop is on Sather and if he is planning to retire any time soon. Maybe there is room in NY for him.
-
A year ago, it was "FI-RE AV" ... now it will be "FI-RE Gillis" followed by "FI-RE TORTO"
Can't wait to see that AV snicker.

So poetic to have AV and the Rangers in town on April 1st of all days.

What do you guys think of the Nazzy theory?
MG steps back and be President.
Nazzy comes in to be GM.
Nazzy gets to decide whether Torts stay or go ... he axes Torts and because Nazzy has clout/credit with fan base, no one is upset that he fires Torts and bring in new coach.
Everyone saves face including owner and MG ... except of course, Torts, he is the scapegoat.

oldnews ... please stop with your defence. Time is running out, it ain't going to happen. Let it rest.
