Lindenforpresident Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 After watching game after game of Travis Green and staff continuously trying the same thing over and over again with the same results just Maybe it is time Benning should look at a making a change, as I have lost all confidence that the staff can make any in game adjustments or even pre game decisions that will lead to the playoffs. Watching Pety have to carry Brock in all zones night after night... well it's infuriating and getting old! At least Goldy got him the puck. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Some fans may want a new coach, but it’s nit happening. Benning has hired two coaches, so if Green goes that means Aquilini will be cleaning house completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true Travis has been given what he has asked for with the editions over the last two summer's. And in my opinion has not used those additions to the best of the abilities of the players. It's on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many GM’s get to hire a third coach during and immediately after a rebuild? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Green is a today kind of coach. He's young, he understands younger players and how to communicate with them, he knows how to develop, etc. He's not going anywhere, unless the Canucks miss the next two playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again the post is just my opinion, from drafting on I don't have a lot of problems with what Jim Benning has done. I am bringing to question what Travis Greene is doing with what he has to work with at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c00kies Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'd love to see the Canucks be more aggressive, especially in the defensive zone. We have a good goalie (both actually), but it's time we trust him and play aggressive and allow him to bail us out. One play that sticks out from yesterday is when Myers laid down to try and take away both plays (the player driving and the pass), but ended up taking away neither. I would have liked him to stay up and take the pass across and let Marky deal with the other player one-on-one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just the regular season, if he isn't making the proper in game adjustments and getting the best players on the ice now good luck in the playoffs. Maybe he can hold their hands when they're golfing in the off season and give them all a participation ribbon. Barf!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care for the soft coach either, not sure if a team could win it all with one. I think it's a little concerning as well, that if a coach scolds a player, that player could "out" the coach in the media for mental abuse or something silly, just because they don't get along? (or in Eriksson's case, don't see eye to eye) The coach used to be the boss, and now it seems the players are in control. Sadly, this seems to be the new NHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on him. yes you are obviously correct 2 games out of a playoff spot with 2 games in hand and of course green requested and was granted an injured sutter, beagle, ferland, edler, and now demko he also wanted baer not to fully get over his concussion issues he clearly should not have made those injury asks ah, and yeah, he also wanted an under performing loui on an inflated contract that obviously shows his inexperience so yes, he was granted his perfect team, and yet shows mostly almost failure so blow it all up let's clean house and hire a coach/seer/magician to fix those problems that are usually beyond the average coach's duties maybe you could apply for the job as you know so much better then those trained for this sort of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
