[GDT/PGT] Vancouver Canucks @ Toronto Maple Laffs | February 6, 2021 | 4 p.m. PT | NHLN, CBC, TVAS, SN, CITY

The Canucks are in their own heads. This game is 50% mental. I think they will come out of it. The only problem is that the season is so short.  The other big issue this year is that you are playing the same team for little mini series. When you see the same team for 3 games straight it makes it more difficult to come out of it. There is no weaker teams to help you out of a slump.

When you don't know what the root causes really are you have to use phrases - to play better is a phrase - .

Or afraid to accept fault, maybe it should be to coach better

The only time Ferlund stepped up, was in a meaningless scrap in a meaningless game against LA, where he got his bell rung, and he has never been the same ever since. I feel bad for the guy,  but Benning signed a guy with known concussion issues, at the same time he was burying Baer for the same reasons.  Ferlund is just another one of a long line of cap boat anchors, compliments of Benning.

Yet , was a big part why Calgary won a series against us. Hindsight is 20/20.

Doesn’t matter, if my staff didn’t do what I told them to do my ass would be on the line, that’s the job of a coach, get them to do what you want them to do and if they don’t you’re the failure.

He seems to be very stubborn, and doesn't evolve with the game.  When you are losing this bad, 5 games in a row now, one would think you might try tinkering with the defence and not just the forwards. He just keeps trying to force good things with the D. and it is not going well.

What can he do with the Defence 

Change one and you get guys on there off side

[BertaNuck]

Virtanen was giving the company tract a chance to be a big part of the puzzle and gave cut up to Loui Eriksson 

 

they guy has nothing move on already

I am OK with your statement, BUT I think the assistants (Baumer and Brown) should be part of the house cleaning, too.

Everyone in the coaching staff besides a few(like Ian Clarke) and the both the AGM and GM is what I implied from clean house. Brown and Baumer especially.

Louie Eriksson is 9 games away from 1000 career NHL games. 

Good luck with that Louie !

I think he’s in a good place.

Yes that is how things do work but what if you bring in a new coach and nothing changes 

 

1 major assumption Green firing callers are assuming is it is Greens fault

[ChuckNORRIS4Cup]

Is Sundin available at 10M a year still....

[AV.]

You already know what I'm going to say.

 

Another night, another 5 goals in the back of our net.  It really, really makes you wonder.

 

The clock is ticking, Mr. Benning...

Maybe but I think this year that’s a lot harder to do anyways with the quarantine and everything.  
 

Ownership has to sign off on trades, too.  With the way things are going we might even be sellers.
 

Sutter, Pearson, Edler and Benn would all have value. 

Yip. Maybe even Hamonic if he is healthy and finds his game.

lol.  Refs swallowed their whistles (among other organic material) during that playoff series.

 

How many bodies would be left laying on the ice if Torres were given that privilage in 2011?

Yeah what, three four years ago, and Calgary traded him away.  

[Dumb Nuck]

Remember when just before the season someone posted Green was picked to be runner up for coach of the year? LOL.
