Popular Post Dumb Nuck Posted January 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) I love our team, hate the coaching. Yeah, I know that today we are #1 in our division but we are one loss away from 6th. I’m not a Green lover, I think he’s way to soft of a coach to have any playoff success so I’ll put my money where my mouth is: I will donate to Canucks Place as follows: $25 if we win the first round under Green. $50 more if we win the second round under Green. $100 more if we win the conference finals under Green. $150 more if we win the cup under Green. Bookmark it, quote me, hold me accountable, I’m putting my beer money where my mouth is. Edited January 19, 2020 by Dumb Nuck 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grape Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I think coaching is generally overrated in hockey. It's much more of a player's game compared to basketball and especially football. So that, combined with my belief that Green is doing a fine job, makes me disagree with your opinion. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the teams make the playoffs, not really an accomplishment, playoffs are a whole new animal and IMHO Green is the wrong coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saved_by_Jesus Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) I always love these kinds of complaints. The Canucks are having great success and people are still saying we should fire the coach? And who are we going to replace him with - the flawless coach out there whom no one else has hired? Who exactly would that be? People forget that if you fire the coach, you have to replace him. Who do you have in mind that hasn't just been fired for underachieving?

I feel a team adopts a coaches attitude and plays as such, I feel Green is way to soft and as a result our team is too soft to have playoff success.

Not sure what the issues with Gallant are but he has a decent record and coached a pretty gritty team. Regardless, sticking with an inferior coach because you’re scared of change is not a good Stanley Cup winning strategy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But firing a winning/overachieving coach, and hiring the coach who was just fired for underachieving with a more skilled team on paper - that's your winning strategy? 1 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post spook007 Posted January 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 19, 2020 Talk about moving goal posts.... At the start of the season, it was all about trying to make the play offs. Great achievement for a team led by youngsters... And you are unhappy about us maybe not winning a play off round? How about we achieve our first target of getting there, and if we should do so, we can set new targets.... patience... 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but yours is simply wrong. If you had a great idea for a replacement, I might bother to keep listening to you, but suggesting Gallant just makes me certain that you have no idea what you are talking about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, I feel we have a solid team, that should make the playoffs and with a bit of luck could make a run, problem is I do not believe we have the right coach for that hence I’m risking my beer consumption to prove my point.
