Herberts Vasiljevs Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) I'm excited that the arrivals of Hoglander and Podkolzin are on the horizon. Those are two wingers with non-stop motors who will play to the death. Edited August 4, 2020 by Herberts Vasiljevs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishopshodan Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I just want a bit of fire. Charge out of the gate. Play like you're already a goal down. Put shots on goal. It the playoffs. I may be wrong but I swear I heard TG preaching patience before the series began. No time for patience. Get after it, take it to them. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He sits the golden boy and the entire fanbase turns on him. Green is being exposed for his lack of results. No systems. The “success” came from the roster JB put together we have the horses and unfortunately we have a 200 pound clueless jockey 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously? you are looking past Minny when we just showed our team is unprepared and has zero system to play defensively and score goals I just meant more that I hope we can win this series while we gel, so that we can even make it to the next one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This a great coach makes adjustments and has a plan Green stands there like a deer in the headlights with that pathetic smirk on his face 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a young coach that acts like he has been there and done that. Except he hasn't. I thought he would grow and learn with the team but his cup seems already full. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck2288 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 When you bench offensive guys and play “defensive” guys you are telling the opposition you fear them and you think your O can’t beat their O. It’s coaching scared it automatically makes our guys nervous and not playing loose he just does not get that defend the deficit mentality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Hopefully it was just nerves for Petey and Hughes in game 1. It goes without saying this team lives and dies with their production. Edited August 4, 2020 by DeNiro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad penalties, a soft first goal and a poor block both on the pk decided the game. I can see why Green didn't make adjustments. I think this next game is the biggest of his time with us. Let's see what what kind of adjustments he makes. However at the end of the day it is up to the players. For example I love Boeser, but at this stage can he really try and load up and launch bombs. He needs to get greasy. Same with a lot of other guys. For me Green's evaluation starts tomorrow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck2288 Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 We had zero d system all year and a red hot Marky covered up that fact on many nights EP and Miller covered up the lack of offensive system them the playoffs hit and we face a trap, Green freezes in game it’s like he didn’t anticipate Minny being ahead in a game. He don’t mix lines, use his last change, didn’t shorten his bench. Didn’t have Jake to dump in and press the d to break the trap or Mac Instead we field slow players like Sutter and Beagle to kill penalties and win faceoff? How did that work for us? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Does anyone have an idea when our Thursday and Friday games will be? All I can find is that they’re TBD. Based on the order of the games on the schedule I’m gonna assume it will be morning games? Can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have traditionally supported Green. The fact that it was only one game has nothing to do with my assessment of his attitude. He should grow with this young team. Empty his cup a bit.

What if the team wins tomorrow and loses the next 2? Is his resume here good enough to stand that, or is it poor enough that one loss costs him his job? It does not make a lot of sense to give him such a short leash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he doesn't, the only thing he ever won was one WHL championship but he wasn't even really their head coach that year, Mike Johnson was but got suspended so Travis gave Mike's orders to the team for the last part of the season.
