If you were too much man, you should be getting a lot more than two minutes out of the deal.

PP and D coaching has been poor for more than just 2 games. I would have preferred Baumer to be the new Head Coach of Utica while continuing to grow as a coach and learn while we brought in someone more experienced. Larry Robinson recently joined the Blues in some capacity if I am not mistaken, he seems to have great success helping the D. We need to find someone like that to join our staff in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Never been a fan of Baumer and Brown aint having any success on the PP anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 As Stated in other thread change up the Power play by having Quinn play behind the net and below the goal line. Qb from downlow, not from way out at the blue line. Canucks have the quickness and skill in Hughes and Petey to run the PowerPlay that way. make it happen Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Canuck Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I’m just curious. Should Green get the boot AFTER JUST 2 GAMES, who replaces him? I hear Craig MacTavish is available. And so is some guy named Willy something. While I agree Brown needs to go, and Baumer is still in above his head, Green is doing fine, just requires better assistance. Don’t swing the axe without thinking where the tree will fall. Go Canucks Go!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EP-40 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 i already made a thread about baumgartner, he is woefully unqualified to be an nhl coach. The only reason hes coaching is because the utica staff felt bad for the guy playing his entire career in the minor leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo2337 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 The powerplay looks terrible. Same old expired formula that isn't working. I'd like to see us skate it into the zone on the rush, and lose the drop pass forever. Move the puck quickly. Hot potato, no player holding it more than 2 seconds. Try something new for once. Maybe setup behind the net and flip it over the back of the net in front. If we are rusty on passing, then practice practice practice. Have some target shooting drills. Work that rust off so we can hit the net. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why will a powerplay be that hard to figure out? maybe start by reviewing powerplays of other winning teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 The PP has been terrible for years, is Newell Brown the special teams coach? If so, he should be let go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote up a powerplay for him to use (even used mspaint for that!) in the PGT on like page 10. I don't mind throwing the guy a bone, he's clearly out of ideas. Jokes aside, yes, he needed to go the first time and not come back. Tampa gassed him and then...became successful. There's a message there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It sounds like Green is going to switch things up (big surprise), but this might actually be a good one. Moving Miller to Pettersson's wing and Ferland to Horvat's. Miller - Pettersson - Boeser Ferland - Horvat - Pearson Miller is a high energy, fast player, who plays a gritty, smart game, quick on the forecheck, he could possibly get Pettersson or Boeser the puck better than Ferland. Also, Ferland with Bo and Pearson makes that a pretty punishing line for opponents to play against. I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 I stand by what I said in the pre season for the PP, put Edler on the 2nd unit and put Hughes on the 1st unit, the kids got skill why not take advantage of his abilities on a man advantage with the rest of your best players surrounding him, seems like a no brainer plus he's quicker and a better passer then Edler. The other change I would make is switching Leivo and Ferland, and sticking Ferland infront of the net, that's why they brought this guy in for his strength and ability to put the puck in occasionally, so maybe utilize him on your top PP line when you have the opportunity and he can hopefully bury some garbage goals infront of the net. I would even put Miller on the 2nd unit and Horvat on the 1st as well. 1st PP unit Ferland - Horvat - Pettersson Boeser Hughes 2nd PP unit Pearson - Miller - Leivo/Virtanen (Virt for infront of net) Myers Edler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_T83 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 (edited) Team is weak. We have no #1 or #2 left wing. And we've got no real #2 right wing. So we're basically a team with 2/3rds of a 1st line, 1/3rd of a 2nd line, and then a 3rd and 4th line. Our GM gave up a 1st and a 3rd to trade for overpriced, overvalued JT Miller. This is a joke. Edit: I don't know why management would ever break up the BHB line. To me, that's what gave them the best value from Baertschi ... and now he's waived because of it. I can't imagine this was Green's choice. More than likely management told Green to play EP with Boeser.... and that's why Baertschi is now off the team. That was a legit 2nd line. Now the team is worse because our GM is too incompetent to find players to play with EP, so he cannibalizes a functional line to do it.
