At this point, Jakes is responsible for his play. I agree he has not been great but he has been put through the ringer with Green and when he gets a chance its usually very limited ice time and with different linemates its hard to get any traction yes i am disappointed but there is potential there thats why any team with good coaching would be interested in him 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope he does well tho, I don't have a hate on him at all like some here do. But yes, I do wonder what better coaching could have done too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Violator Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I still don't think we should give up on him stupid coaching has made his development worse . But I guess that means it will be better to let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timråfan Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 18 minutes ago, Provost said: I think everyone knows what Green expects of Jake at this point. He has said that they have at down with Virtanen many many times and that they told him exactly what do do. Green has said it in press conferences at least a dozen times. “We need Jake to be consistent and use his size and speed to drive to the net, good things will happen if he does that”. Cut to the next game and Jake using his size and speed to fend off defenders, drive to the net, and score. Then cut to the next 10 games where Jake sees a defender between him and the net, so cuts away to the perimeter... circles behind the net with the puck, and passes it to the opposition”. Rinse, Repeat for 7 seasons. As I said to Jimmy, better talk to DeNiro about this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You made a claim that Green isn't communicating with Virtanen by making some tenuous connection that Dahlen claimed his AHL coach (not Green by the way) didn't communicate with him enough. Not only was Green NOT Dahlen's coach... but Dahlen has since flopped out of the AHL with his NEW team and coach and is now playing in a 2nd tier Swedish league.... so it seems pretty clear that there is more keeping him out of the NHL than one coach not talking with him enough. There is no way to correlate the two things at all really, and I have no idea why messaging DeNiro for a claim you are making would be appropriate. If he thinks the same as you, then he can read my response to your claim. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if the situation is the same Green using AHL tactics in NHL. A lack of communication is never good What kind of player is Dahlen. Why does he continue to play Allsvenskan istead of stiffer competition in the SHL. What’s he trying to prove, I don’t get it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfgang Durst Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Sportsnet: Elliotte Friedman on Headlines on the Canucks and Ducks trade speculation involving Virtanen. ** NHLRumors.com transcription “Well it’s been kind of something that has been talked about all week is Jake Virtanen and the Anaheim Ducks. They’ve been dance partners with each other, trying to see if something can fit, and Vancouver twitter did it’s thing today blowing it into a one-for-one deal with Danton Heinen. Right now as it stands at 8:50 PM Eastern Time on Saturday night, I think it’s more not likely than likely that this happens. Quite simply it’s the salary. This is actual cash and not cap hit and the numbers just have to match. The Ducks and Canucks have been trying to work to see what else they could do in this deal to make it work so they could complete it. But as it stands on Saturday night it’s not sounding optimistic. Although they have tried before, all week, and they may try again.” sounds like this deal ain't happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed him film of the way they wanted him to play. Basically drew him a picture and tried to build him up. Look, if Jake is dumb as a bag of hammers, don't hang it on Green. He's tired of a player who was spoon fed and still doesn't get it. I don't blame him a bit. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt JB or Anaheim bring Eliotte into their inner circles. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s revisit it in a few years and see who was completely incorrect for the record, Green is incapable of showing anybody the right way to play. Name 1 success story from his time in Utica. no clue how Green’s cult rationalizes his existence as a head coach when he frankly has a horrible record. Never taken a team to a title at any level if hockey and somehow now he is a star at developing players? tell that to Jake, Gauds, Goldy and the list goes on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
