If he improves, he should get there. that's asinine. should you be able to do your job better now than you did 6 months ago, while your 2 direct subordinates are gone on short term disability and you're left to do all of their work in addition to your own?

Nucker 67 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Injuries shouldn't be an excuse. Every team (I believe) has injuries. This year the Canucks have improved depth too, so what's the problem? Has Green turned over the room to Bo? Or are they in denial until they're at the bottom again? Tired of hearing "these are the ebbs and flows of the season". You'd never hear Scotty Bowman say that lol 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plain and simple they set the bar too high...the first sign of success and they start planning a parade. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been the situation for years now this is not an anomaly. I remember some players over the years playing almost 30 minutes a night. Players such as Pronger or Leetch. Never heard them complaining of playing too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVE Roussel....our fans should roar loudly for him and drown out the red jerseys. Tbh, I hate he Leafs blue more than the Montreal red. Went to the Canadiens and Canucks game last season, though it sucks to have half the building filled with opposing team’s fans but at the very least, Habs fans are classy and respectful. Can’t say the same about the Leafs fans. Although never been to a Canucks and Leafs game live, but from what I can see and hear on TV, Leafs fans are more of a brat and think they are the centre of the universe. The chanting of “Go Leafs Go” during a moment of silence of a former NHL legend last season was disgraceful. Also, the year before that, Dorsett was forced into an early retirement, he came out to congratulate Daniel on scoring his 1000th point the game before and the crowd was clapping. But then when the camera zoomed in at a section, none of the Leafs fans clapped in that section in the camera. It just things like this I notice that I would never want to see a Leafs cup in my life time. Back on topic, hope the Canucks play a good game tonight and drown down the Canadiens fans in the building by being loud and proud.

Some teams have the ability to overcome problems they encounter and some have a hard time with it. That and I think the coach is too worried about his job and winning as opposed to developing the young guys still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB even said he liked Virtanen on the third line before the season started, said it gave them speed on that line but nope, Green started him on the 4th line and gave him less than 10 minutes a game for the first two months of the season. Played every one from Sutter to Graovac on the PP over him and hasn't played him once in OT. Surprisingly Virtanen has still put up points.

LowerMainLander18 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 If we go back to that team that wants to be the hardest working team on any given night, I like our chances in these 5 game home stance. We are not good enough to rely on talents alone to win games. I liked our game in the beginning of the season when everybody finished their checks and we outworked the other team the right way. Effort should be there every night. And at least that's what the team should show to the fans that support them. Some teams may outskill us. But they shouldn't outwork us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are too obsessed with wanting Green to fail to the point that you’re cheering for your team to lose. Come on dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
