  1. I would like to see a new coach with a new attitude and a winning track record. Not that much to ask for. Green is just not a great coach and he is overrated for having a record that is worse than Willy D. I would really like to send the players a message that we are turning the page in a positive way going into next year. i think this team can definitely be on the rise but I don't have confidence in Willy 2.0
  2. Couldn't agree with you more. The insignificant nobodies at the end of the proverbial road trying desperately to get noticed. There is a vacuum of talent here in the media because there is nothing to report on.
  3. Question is JB pissed that Green played Benn all year blocking Juolevi. So JB trades Juolevi and says ok he will now play the rest of the year. Then Green still sits him? Do JB and Green see eye to eye or if JB goes to Aqua in the off season and says I am gonna let Green go but I want to stay does Aqua say ok - cuz JB is under contract and Green is not? (Money). Hmmm. I wonder whether both or one or none will be here by next season start.
  4. Ya gotta agree with you that Green does his rookies are worth less than everyone else thing, a lot. Too bad in this case. Kid played his heart out again. Not his fault he hasn't played 400 games already.
  5. After we are eliminated not before. Specific partner, specific. Or not lol.
  6. Why these jerks keep doing this is beyond me. Is there any valid hockey point being made here or is it just more whining and hoping for the Canucks to do something that they can hack on. Unbelievable garbage!
  7. Be specific partner. We just lost the last game. Going into tonight we have 7 left. We expect to win 3 or 4 based on our winning percentage. At the start of the game when Green set the roster we were not yet eliminated. You want him to throw in the towel before we are eliminated? Be specific in your comments or they just sound like silliness.
  8. All good my friend. Look you just have to be specific. The Canucks cannot be expected to realistically play to a much worse winning percentage in their last 7 games than they played all year right? So it's reasonable to epect that they will win either 3 or 4 of their last 7 games. That puts them at 49 or 51 points. Very likely the ultimate result. That likeley means 7 - 10 pick. I get that you want a higher pick but we aren't going to throw games away - these are real people playing for their jobs. We are out of the race for the top 4 unless we win the lottery. Mathematically Buff and Ana have 1 and 2. Seattle was gifted 3. NJ lost tonight and with 2 points we finish ahead of them. So we are 5 to 11 and likely 7 to 10. it's ok. The one thing Benning is on a heater for is drafting. He will get us a good player. This year of all years, outside of the top 4 I don't know that anyone can realistically say that 5 is for sure better than 11. So let's go with the positive take and assume that JB will pick a beauty at 7 to 10.
  9. Canucks finally eliminated in game 50 by Mtl in their game 55. Provost you were not even close back in February. Lol. Mr. Negative... forever.
  10. Every beer league hockey player in the world has had a Vesey type teammate.
  11. You making a negative comment. Wow. I'm shocked. Partner it is all good. We are gonna get a good pick regardless and having a little fun at the end of the year is a good thing. Chin up. Canucks are going to keep improving. Many positives to take from this down year and many more coming next season.
  12. i want a job where my only responsibility is coaching special teams and I get well paid and keep my job by having terrible results but nobody calls me out.
  13. This is the weirdest year I can ever remember. Scenario 1. We lose tonight and go 1 and 6 the rest of the way. We finish 3rd worst in the league and get a very high pick. Scenario 2. We win tonight. Mtl loses it's remaining 2 games. We go 6 and 1 in our last 7 games and we make the playoffs. That is absolutely ridiculous - but both scenarios are true. Lol.
  14. it's a moo point. Means nothing. You know like a cow's opinion. It's moo.
  15. So far I'm enjoying tonight's game. I want us to look good, feel good about ourselves, play well but ultimately win no more than 3 of our last 8. That gives us pretty much a lock on picking in the top 8 where grandma keeps the peanut butter.
  16. Miss Petey all together. C'mon Petey heal that wrist or whatever it is and get back to health soon so we can start coming together as a team of destiny for the future!
  17. Great to see the league opening up for teams that are fully vaccinated. Good sign for everyone that positive change, supported and backed by science, is finally starting to come.
  18. Rathbone looks good! He is a driver of the play, nice shot, smart good first pass, good skater. Really looking forward to seeing more from him. Olli is a nice kid but there is no question Rathbone is way more dynamic.
