fair enough, and I do think new assistant coaches would go a long way to fix the situation. 

 

So we'll see, its not a great sign that Green hasn't been inked yet, he may decide to try the market. 

My thing is the assistants report to Green, he has the final say 

 

if they don’t perform he can replace them or override their decisions 

 

buck stops with him 

 

that said the assistants are awful

Not sad, it’s time for a Graovac attack baby! 

And with that, I'm bluer than blue.

You consider .500 hockey, missing the playoffs, no offence, 5th in the division - wining and racking up points?

 

Yeah I’ve seen a lot of exciting hockey here over the last couple years. I guess you prefer Petterson blocking shots over highlight reels

We have not played 500 hockey over the last 4 years 

 

we will finish below 5th in a 7 team division 

 

how is any of that a good thing

You’ll have to trust me it was brilliant and you would surely have come around to my way of thinking!

He'll probably come around 360º !!

As a Canadian team that's been in existence for over 50 years - this so-called product is unacceptable. It's been years since they were relevant (excluding the bubble anomaly), 

 

Canucks fans deserve a lot better

It sucks, if you exclude the good stuff.

Talk about self fufilling statements.

This might be a chance for Graovac to grab and hold on to that 4C slot.  He hasn't shown much at the the NHL level for us so far but was playing lights out for the Moose on his loan there.  He's a UFA this year so will be playing for a contract

Maybe the bubble is who we are, and this year is an anomaly?

Playing lights out for the Moose means nothing if you flame out in the NHL in Graovacian fashion.

If last season was "Bubble" this season should have an asterix name too with "Covid" 

 

Though this is no defense if Green, or JB, I expected us to fair better this year. It sucks that Virt cannot figure it out and Petey got hurt, Tree is not coming back, and Toff is lighting it up elsewhere.

 

Hindsight is 20/20 though I think we still have a potentially bright future if we play our cards right.
