so sorry - you deserve a much better team.

I owe you that much.

I really don’t  care but hey maybe Jim will get us a new fourth liner for Christmas if Vancouver’s really good.

Everyone ready for a post game presser full of clichés?

Don’t worry, Babcock is coming.

Boudreau or Gallant

I know Aquilini said he fully backs Travis Green, but this team isn’t motivated. Green isn’t getting the best out of these guys. JT Miller looks like he’s about to rage quit Hockey almost every time he’s coming off the ice. The defense folds so easily far too often. Virtanen plays most of each game like he’s never played hockey before. Gaudette has the least amount of confidence of anyone I’ve ever seen. Someone needs to fire these guys up. This roster has loads of talent. They are too good to be this bad.

How many coaches have we had? 

How many cups have we won?

 

Yeah, I agree, easier to get rid of coaches then players...but it's not going to make a difference...

You believe it won't make a difference but you have no way of knowing.  

[Twilight Sparkle]

two games in a row greener finds a way to kill any momentum this team had going in to the second, with a lead xD it's happened a lot this season. it's not the players at this point

[Provost]

Send a message... play the whole taxi squad next game... force some embarrassment

i never said a word about the coach.  He and his assistants got their hands in this mess too,.

 

But do you really think Green makes Myers defend like Dana Murzyn.  Brain farts, freezes.  awful decisions?  Or do you think Green makes Edler skate like my mom?  A large part of this is on personnel too.

Hey, for whatever reason, he was able to get under Wayne Gretzky's skin.

Remember the days when we had a coach that would actually line match? You know, the coach that lead us to back to back president’s trophies and a win away from a cup??

I miss those days too 

 

P.S. they need a crying emoji so I can accurately depict my feelings right now lol

Show him the video of Kesler in the playoffs. 

Kesler had more heart in the finger he wanted to cut off then this whole team combined.

Just absolutely pathetic. Players don't seem to care at all. Stop playing after a 3-0 lead. Just like they stopped playing after those games with a 2-0 lead. Such trash. 

 

 

The first line seriously just needs to be broken up. For a LONG time. The amount of times they have the puck in the offensive zone and just turn it over because they aren't even close to being on the same page is absurd. Constantly have possession only to skate it into each other and lose all space and lose the battle. 

 

PP still accomplishes nothing. Putrid goaltending changing the dynamic of the game. Pretty big difference going into the second when it's 3-1 vs 3-0, especially when it's a late goal. Seriously. That shot had NOTHING on it. Pure fluffball. Just like this entire season in most games, we cannot get a save. Of course naturally complete lack of effort and battle in the second and third to complete the collapse. 

 

Just feeling apathetic towards the players on this team. 

Break up the first line and have Miller center a line and roll four lines. 
 

Boys looked to be out of gas in the third and any jump that the bottom six started with was neutered by the time third period rolled around from sitting too long. 
 

[-NucksFan]

Coaches of opposing teams in 3rd periods “ ok boys stop playing with your food ... finish this “

[GritGrinder]

8 more regulation losses until the playoffs hang in the balance. (Based on the 30-21-5 minimum needed).

 

[Trebreh]

My interest for the rest of the season was already low, but now it's completely gone. We need all 4 points in this mini series just to stay alive and we blew it away. 

 

JB (if he still has trading powers) must sell all pending UFAs to any takes. 

 

Trade Miller and his pouting ass to Buffalo or something. He doesn't deserve to play for us. I was so wrong about his character. 

 

what a waste of a season. 

 

[camaro ss]

It’s the god dam aquiline family that’s ruining this team. God dammit they’re cheap. Fire Green now.

[garthsbutcher]

Will make for some easy decisions at the trade deadline! 

[canuktravella]

Most mentally fragile team in the league.

That’s pretty much it in a nutshell. It’s everything. Even when we get a few bounces our way finally, we still find a way to lose
