I think injuries are a legit excuse for coach Green who'd like to roll out the team in a certain way. Where they are in the standings, where they are with their young guys, where they are with their injuries, in the very least coach Green is somewhat experimental. He's consistently sending out Goldobin, Virtanen, Gaudette over the boards. No doubt these players are improving. Anyone saying this team isn't improving or coaching is a problem is watching this team with their head up their a** honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally everyone who simplifies it to “he was outcoached” here has had no clue to what they're talking about. I don't think blindly backing Green is justified anymore. Look I played for years and coached for a decade. I personally have close friends and family who have played in the NHL AHL NCAA USHL CHL and BCHL. I am a Canucks season ticket holder for years. In my opinion coach Green is a nice guy and an ok coach who will be hard pressed to take this team from a developing project to a legit contender. Just my opinion mind you.

That's all being said ignoring the roster. If all you need for a rebuilding team is a great coach why is Edmonton who has a great coach and the best/2nd best player in the game only 1 point ahead of us?

Oilers have different issues, for a team to win the cup a lot of things have to click, one of which is coaching. Green will never coach a STanley Cup winning team thushe is a part of the problem.

Their roster is similar to ours with only one better generational player and a great coach in Hitchcock and only a one point difference. Fact you need a Good Coach AND a good team to win in the NHL not one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck2288 Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Those of you that “rationalize” Green’s performance based upon our roster should ask yourself how Arizona is managing to win could it actually be coaching ???? Green.... nice guy but not an nhl calibre coach get Quenneville in here ASAP JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey partner I get the fact that our roster isn't finished developing. Just saying a lifetime spent in hockey tells me that when the roster is finally ready...Greens not the guy. Nice guy but not a shooting star. Thanks for your comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost as bad as the ridiculous "should of", which now could classify as buzz wordy just from frequency alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My preference is to keep him but we need to get some offensive help so we're not stuck defending much which is the true root of the majority of his and our injuries. I know. In a sense I'm agreeing with u and adding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree it's reasonable to blame the coach on a rebuilding team. Too many players improving under Green to dismiss him as a mediocre coach.

Bell Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 It's super weird coming here and finding people so mad at Green. This is a super young club, that has been decimated by injuries all season. I figured I would come here this evening and have people drooling over the Pettersson shootout magic. Instead it is very negative. This is going to be a very good team in a few seasons. Green is not the issue. Enjoy the last few games of the season nuckleheads, good times are ahead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming off a serious injury, putting up 23 goals, and currently on a 5 game point streak.....and you're saying he's going backwards? Man oh man what is wrong with this fan base.
