  1. Without demko last year, they're a bottom 6 team, easily
  2. I think people see Tocchet as some kind of hard assed coach, but my understanding is he's a players coach, one of the guys kind of.
  3. I have absolutely nothing against BB. He's a great person and deserved far better than the treatment he received from training camp on.
  4. I didn't say "good", I said big difference. I've been saying for two years they need to balance the roster, but if they had a coach with a strong defensive system, they'd likely be on the wild card bubble, if not in. This team can score and with a some structure on defense they'd win more games than they'd lose
  5. Green didn't have much structure either and that's ridiculous, of course they can. Every single player on this roster has played a strong systems coach at some point in the career, as an amateur or pro or both.
  6. Roster needs balancing, no doubt, but a better coach for this group would have made a huge difference. BB was a terrible coach for this team.
  7. D E M K O All the same problems were there last year and Demko won them a lot of games they had no business winning.
  8. He was, no argument Doesn't change that he was terrible in Van. Completely wrong coach for this group.
  9. Strong defensive systems are made for teams without game changing players and they're much more effective. You put a strong systems coach on the bench and you'd see a huge difference, even without demko. A good system is the great equalizer
  10. That's bullsh!t. Let's stop mythologizing him. He had demko cover the warts last year and no structure to his game, at all, this year. He has been a huge part of the problem Great guy, hated seeing him so disrespected, but he was not good in Van, at all
  11. I got the ahltv for the rest of the season. I haven't watched the last three Canucks games because the Abby games were on and I didnt.misd it a bit
  12. Disagree, if they'd had a proper system coach in there things would be different. They've got more than enough talent to be good, but they're not good enough defensively to play the run and gun style BB likes. They need defensive structure.
  13. Again, people should be watching Abby games, they're very entertaining and they're playing very well Podz Hogz Klim Woo Ksrlsson Silovs Aman Bains All playing some great hockey right now.
  14. Klim, beauty one timer, but wranglers win. I'd say Abby out played them and AKL with two outstanding bouts
  15. Wranglers are so good on special teams. Aggressive pk and some great shooters on the pp 3-1
  16. My daughter looked exactly like this kid when she was young and every time shes pissing me off, I send that to her.
  17. It's funny that Aman is the same player in Abby as he is in Van. He's just a good, solid, reliable two way C.
