Gurn Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 Canucks weren't catching Toronto. But even the one point for Calgary hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah and based on just reading the forum, there seems to be mostly two sides to the teams struggle: coaching change or more roster tweaking.

Popular Post sockeye Posted February 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2021 (edited) 2 hours ago, EdgarM said: Remember, this is the coach that thought LE was still a legit NHL player. LE was a very legit NHL player when Benning signed him. At the time, our fan base (me too) felt we had won the lottery because lots of teams wanted LE when he became a UFA. There was no reason to think otherwise. LE had a great season the year before and he had shown good chemistry with the Sedins in international tournaments. Needless to say, it didn't work out.

The best thing I could possibly imagine is that they have a bench clearing brawl and beat the tar out of each other. Edit: Which I've mentioned before.

It is widely reported that other teams were offering Beagle 1 year @ 1m-1.5m and inept idiot foes out and gives him 4*3m Canucks were low in the standings so had to add that 4th year and the limited NTC. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ohmy Posted February 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2021 I think Greens loyalty will cost him his job. Loyalty to veterans and his coaching staff. Baumer is a good D coach in the AHL but not the NHL. Newell Browns PP is stagnant and rarely works anymore. Roussel has made as many boneheaded plays as Virtanen but continues to play. I'd rather pull Rooster out and run with 7 D if it keeps Juolevi in. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge Jake fanboy, but I've always supported our prospects and wished them all the best. I actually suggested last year to give him a one year 'do or die' contract to show his worth when everyone here was discussing his value and what to sign him at. But I agree, it's possible that because him and Green have a long history when he was coaching in Utica, it could be more intense than it needs to be. I know firsthand, if any boss was micro-managing me and pushing my buttons for too long - there would be a major problem. When you are playing in the best league in the world and have a chance to make an exceptional living - you have to bite your tongue, to some degree. Jake is responsible for his own results, it would be interesting to see how he plays out under a new coach, whether here or elsewhere. I'd rather give him his last last chance here. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Kneel Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 1 hour ago, Beary Sweet said: Can’t wait till players like Roussel, Beagle, Eriksson, Sutter and their contracts expire. It opens up more cap flexibility for JB to work with and contract offers for Petey and Huggy Bear. We can also use it to sign low risk, high reward bottom 6 players. I wish we can turn this year around but if we don’t, play the kids more and develop their overall game. An inexpensive 4th line ELC would be Woo, 11/7 arrangement. Just tell him to hit.

The problem is that we are still trying to be "the Sedin's team" , playing 60 minutes is optional, hitting or playing aggressive is optional and we live or die with our star players. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of revisionism by the fans is really sad. If we really believe in cancel culture, we could pull out that thread and see how many people bashed the hell out of the Pettersson pick.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
