Bruce Boudreau Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 1040 is all over Hitchcock saying he will be top of the list because he is a vet coach... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Thank you sweet baby jesus. Now all we need is a good coach to get fired. If Green gets the job I'm cancelling my cable package. I'm so very tired of coaches that have absolutely zero idea how to coach offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Goldobin and Tryamkin are probably drinking vodka and singing in Russian right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitch has come out saying he's retiring at the end of the season. The firing just made it early for him from St. Louis.

cbdoubleu Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Knowing this management team's MO, I won't be surprised if they hire a big name coach and try to pass this rebuild off as having turned the corner towards completion. I think season ticket retention is going to be a huge objective for the Canucks this off-season, more important than actually developing all these prospects we have now. Hope I'm wrong.

ForsbergTheGreat Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 8 minutes ago, Baggins said: He's the sacrificial lamb to quell the torch and pitchfork fans. I was hoping he'd get another season to see how he does with some actual young offensive forwards available instead of the Skille and Chaput type spot fillers he's had the past two years. Or perhaps: The mgmt knew there were better options, Weren't actually on the same page like the WD homers suggested Because it's not a try league, it's a get it done league Mgmt wasn't satified that WD was able to turn this team around. JB has more concern over his own contract status this year than over what a few fans and media thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neversummer Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 He will go on to become a Coach of the Year candidate, coach of a team in the playoffs, or coach of Stanley Cup .. like the previous corp of recent Canucks coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaudette Celly Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 1 minute ago, CanuckGAME said: Team 1040 is wanting Hitchcock. That would be a nightmare. No kidding. The guy is trying to RETIRE, and they want to bring in a guy who will coach the excitement and entertainment right out of the team? Hitchcock is probably smarter than this anyway, knowing that it would likely leave a stain on his legacy coming here with this fickle reactionary fanbase and toxic media environment. Gallagher was bad enough, then Pratt with his Hitchcock-pimping, now the "fans" coming on and yammering nonsense... had to turn that crap off, lol.

nux_win Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I guess the angry mob with the pitchforks won. No big surprise here, they always do. The mob rules! (doesn't matter that they are frequently incorrect or acting on impulse, when the mob demands a scapegoat one is given lest one become one oneself) GCG!

Maybe he just likes the food there, but curious that he's floating around Vancouver. Being fired does a lot to spark your ego. I could see him making one last stand. I'd prefer Crawford though, but I see Hitchcock as more of a Benning guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
