Because currently Green has a job with the Canucks and guess who his boss is.

mikkim Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 1 hour ago, canuck2288 said: I think the determining factor is whether they were added to our reserve list Not that I'm arguing, because I'm really hoping that Tryamkin can be signed and play this season, but last year Nylander had to sign with the Leafs by Dec. 1st or he would have been ineligible to play for them that season, I'm pretty sure he would have been on their reserve list. I know it's not the exact same scenario but both players were coming off ELC, does Nikita going to the KHL for a few years change that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb Nuck Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 21 minutes ago, canuck73_3 said: Actually the fact you think this team is a contender with a different coach says otherwise... 10 minutes ago, canuck73_3 said: That will be considered IF it happens. Until then it is unnecessary to whine about it ad nauseam on here. The first three years we were still rebuilding. You can't rebuild AND make the playoffs so I'm really not sure why you keep whining about not making the playoffs the first three years. This is his first season with a playoff contender and we are still holding a playoff spot... Firstly, I never said contender, just said better but you seem to be a bit wishy washy on the subject.

WHL rocks Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 If we go .500 for remaining 18 games most likely we make playoffs. If we miss playoffs Green will be replaced by Gallant this summer. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyCanuck Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 2 minutes ago, Alflives said: None of these changes makes any difference if Green stays with the same systems, and passive (chase) philosophy. As I’ve been posting here for quite a while, our systems do not get the best out of our players. I've stated this before but bringing in veteran coach as a new D coach would do Green wonders and means Green can finally stop learning on the job.... I thought Green had the room but after the last two loses I'm not sure..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 1 minute ago, Alflives said: Why are you so personal in your posts? We all want the same thing, don’t we? We just have differing ways to get there. Some of us happen to believe we have very good players, who would be doing better with a stronger coach. Pretty obvious when you brag about being experienced in the game, calling other forum users dumb for not being as experienced as he is. Then he says Green accepts losing based off of media clips... No NHL coach accepts losing and to claim you’re so experienced in the game and then spout off that an NHL coach accepts losing is laughable at best. To question Green’s moves is 100% acceptable, to say he accepts losing matter of factly like that is disingenuous at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s kind of a straw man, but you also nail a great aside, and that is that for anyone bitchin about Greene, coaching or anything relating to the roster, the guy responsible is Benning. Any and all blame rests at the feet of Benning. There seems to be reluctance in the forum to place blame or criticism where it belongs. He is the manager, after all.

Up to a certain point I'd agree. But the refs arms seem to get tired eventually. Look at the calls Petey got at the start of this season compared to now and I suspect its the same with a lot of the young stars around the league, not just Petey. Yeah players have to fight through, but at the same time a penalty is a penalty. Has to be consistent . .

I would guess that most fans are indifferent on the prospect of him staying or going because they see the obvious and realize it could be Willy-worse. TG isn’t out coaching anybody that I’ve seen, but I can definitely cite instances where he was schooled as a HC by the opposition. I bet that he’s one of the first casualties of this season if/when JB makes real changes in the offseason. Why? Why not? There are really no reasons to keep him beyond continuity, IMO. Huh, I sound like an anti Greener. I’m not, but I’m also far from a backer. I’m using my amateur assessments of him to figure it all out still, I guess. At least you are realistic about the whole thing. Not just Fire Green blah I’m upset, type comment. I think Green can be a better coach too, everyone can be better but the team is far from a contender (anything can happen of course) The team is right were they should be maybe even a few points above the bar. From the start of the season I thought this year would be a big stepping stone, next year playoffs or better. Never changed the fact the Ownership wants us to make the playoffs which means JB believes in Green. Edited March 1, 2020 by Devron44 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we miss playoffs Green will be replaced by Gallant this summer. there's a lot of big decisions this summer, coaching, goaltending, contract extension talks, possible UFA additions vs call-ups, its going to be interesting with a lot of potential movement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
