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. Okay leafs lose to an beer league goalie and the next game they beat the lighting and we lose to the sens and then we lose to the leafs so........ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose at some point I hope JB steps in and takes over the lineup decisions or perhaps Green become competent overnight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are 0/50 several teams that fired their coach have gone on to win the cup, even if it was just one, still better odds historically.

He got our team to the playoffs the first year. Did you see the roster we iced in those years after. Nobody is winning anything with those rosters. It was the start of the rebuild so I don’t buy that at all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting stat. Not sure if the comments relate to mine/this, but... 75%>>25% not that we're a cup contender either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love torts coaching this bunch ha so I would say I trust his judge of coaching over Jim's ha I wouldn't want Torts within 10,000 km of this team. He'd play EP40, Miller, Toffoli and Hughes 30 minutes a game and burn them out. Then run to his place in Point Roberts. Sorry, no thanks. I'd take Babcock before Tort's any day.

He wAs a disaster in La and had players outright confused there is a reason he is no longer coaching at the NHL level That said he is a better coach than Green 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry Goose Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 13 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. Almost every team the Canucks play Alf use the same box + 1 d coverage as the Canucks. Player personnel also plays a huge factor in how that system is implemented as well. Fact is, your never going to get guys like Pearson playing a tight gap on their coverage because they don't have the agility to recover like say a Motte or Hughes if they get beat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t say it was 100%, just said the odds were better, if we fire our coach every season we should win a cup before our 100th anniversary.
