It’s a lot more difficult in today’s climate to can your coach and have his replacement waiting in the wings. Oh ya you're right only 1500 times in professional sports history has a head coach been relieved without a permanent replacement already in place. Teams do this to send a message in an effort to get the players to come together. It happens all the time and it is time to do it here. Green is not the guy. Lol.

Irrelevent. The decision was - which goaltender is likely to fit better in your team's potential contending window. No bigger lover than Markstrom on these boards than myself - but I had to acknowledge that is was either Demko or Markstrom - and let it go. but you take it beyond that to but 'so-and-so was so-and-so's buddy'. Boohoo to that. It's a pro hockey team, not a clique or social club. Friends are going to move on - (and they're still your friends if you're real friends - which is what your off ice life is for - your business). Boohoo, Toffoli was Pearson's friend. No one disliked Leivo. None of that has a whiff to do with having to make decisions. Media can mope about it all as much as they want. Players need to grow up and be professionals - and I'm pretty sure they're far more emotionally mature than the twittiots surrounding the team. You missed the context of my comment old boy. But thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about accountability. You make it sound like it’s Bennings first year on the job. He’s been here seven years. That’s a long time for any gm. He’s had very little success in that time. You can’t be going back and forth as an organization and expect to be contenders. Edited February 9, 2021 by Canuckfanforlife82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Green’s fault, just like the Hitmen and Willie were responsible before for Jake not realizing his full potential. I personally have to point the finger at Myers for not making sure Jake was ready to go, and maybe Jake’s mom for not making sure he ate his veggies.

igorwasgreat Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hypothetically, if the team continues this trajectory, and there is a Coaching change.Would it be wise to hang onto JV and give a new coach a shot at elevating him to a regular spot on the team. Maybe it’s the coaching style that hasn’t gotten through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every GM is perfect I would absolutely love if we got another GM in here, but benning stayed on to deal with all the drafting and scouting lol.
