the difference is that in one scenario your playing the game in the other your watching the game

 

I believe in emotion in playing the game trust me I know I played till I was 22 

 

but negative emotions well watching a game seriously 

Reasonable statement 

[J-23]

Seriously tho, GDT’s have dropped of over the years. All you guys do now is argue between one another smh.

Then why the &^@# are you hoping for losses, pal dude buddy, guy man?

 

So in the pregame "coaching speach" you give to 4 year olds..... nevermind. Just don't tell them it's okay to lose BEFORE the game. Tell em it's okay AFTER they lose, coach buddy dude guy.

 

Take off

I tell them to go have fun, 

 

here is a mind blower, talent is learned, but not taught

when kids have fun playing that is when kids learn to do all the tricks these players do 

you can teach structure, you can teach defence, but all you can do is encourage talent

 

and this is what I tell other coaches

 

my four year old can skate circles around 7-8 olds the reason is I tell him to try the things he sees Hockey players do, we watch past all star games and I tell him try that, doesn't that look fun

Well my son's a sens fan because of the wife. 

One of the Dad's from my son's team is a diehard nucks fan, wife from toronto, kid's a leafs fan.

 

It happens. You'll still love em

Green after the loss - "ARI is a good team, they needed this win too and had something to play for, it came down to a few lucky bounces, but I thought we played well."

 

or they could win

 

 

Save this quote ... it is totally recyclable

Omg, you're a revolutionary coach, like really.

 

I've been coaching youth sports for 8 years and I never thought once about telling them to go out there and have fun.

Never

 

Because that's not like only thing they're supposed to do. How'd I miss that? Pal

I don't hope for loses I just see them coming 

 

So I will cheer for the Canucks and what they are good at

 

I truly found that last game impressive, that was one hell of an impressive loss

 

8 mins left to go up 3-1 and they allow 4 goals

that is the definition of impressive

Having a leafs fan in the family gives many opportunities to publicly shame that family member that ya probably don’t really like that much anyway.

 

amirite

Ok guys back on track here. 
 

I think the best thing Green did in TO was not pull Demko after those 2 gimme goals. I felt for the guy man. I think that was a good move. Like it was a message saying no Demmer you’re our guy you battle through this. I think it’s going to give him a boost vs the Yotes. There’s no reason to believe he can’t put this together. He’s played well for us in the past and he’s learning on the fly.

 

To the guys going to the game, show your support and get loud when he makes a save

you know you could just smile if you kid cheered for the Leafs

 

Also I don't hate the leafs or Boston or any team I don't even dislike them without them it Just wouldn't be the same game

Another must win game. 

Never gets old.

You make it work. Best just not to talk hockey at the dinner table and stick to less contentious topics like American politics.

No way this fan base wants him pulled and a Zamboni driver to take his place

 

If this fan base controlled the Canucks their would be full team turn overs every two years
