If it's the same old, then we are not winning that draft judging by our luck.

sassbs Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Passive green. I remember when toffoli came onboard , he came out smashing and banging and scoring!!! Someone must’ve said settle down, we don’t do that here because next thing you know, petterson is getting smashed and he does nothing. The only player I recall doing damage every shift was Luke Shenn. Someone looked at hughes the wrong way and he would drop him. sorry guys. This isn’t sitting well with me! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNate Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 1 minute ago, PhillipBlunt said: Every team played the 56 game schedule, and a few other teams had outbreaks of Covid in their rosters as well. So using that excuse doesn't fly. Notice that the players didn't lean on it to explain their lack of success. I'm fine with Green being re-signed, if that is in fact the case, but the two assistants clearly were less than successful in their specific areas of coaching. The defense was a porous mess most nights, with the Canucks surrendering more shots than any other team in the league. That wasn't because of Covid or a compressed schedule, it was because they were hemmed in their own end more than not, and couldn't break the puck out with any consistency. I hope for better next year, but am not going to count on it. Nobody had the level of covid related symptoms or time off we did, not even close. Boeser certainly made a point of mentioning it yesterday. I do agree that a new D and PP coach would go a long way, I hope those changes are made. Yes, I do think that the compressed schedule did cause some of the challenges we had on D, absolutely. We played 35 of our 56 games over a span of 56 days to start and end the year. Anybody who has played sports can understand that if you are playing on average close 4 games a week, 20+ mins a game, it will hurt your performance. Not using that as an excuse, we should have had better depth to get through it, but we didn't. Next year though that variable is gone, and I think our team will perform better as a result.

stawns Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 9 minutes ago, 48MPHSlapShot said: I think a lot of the "upward progression" being discussed can be attributed to the fact that we managed to add at least one star player to the lineup every year since Green made it to the big club. Just sayin' Edit: Also, the Clarke effect should be taken into consideration when discussing our "upward progression". You know, the one coach that is actually leaving the team. so the only players that matter are the ones who you don't think contribute? Are the players added not part of the team? Is the goalie not a part of the team? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 The pieces are there: Horvat, Pettersson, Boeser, Hoglander, Podkolzin, Hughes, Juolevi, Rathbone, Demko and they'll get another gem in a couple of months. It's very irritating to still have Roussel, Eriksson, Beagle, Ferland and Virtanen, and it looks like they'll probably re-sign Edler, maybe Sutter too - the 2 year end to this rebuild makes some sense and will fall into place. Contracts will have expired, a player traded or a buyout. By 2023/24 the Canucks will have a very good core of players, all just about to enter their prime. Pettersson (24) will be a 90 point player, Hughes (23) will lead the league for D, Boeser (26) will score 40 goals, and who knows what Podkolzin and Demko will do. Trying real hard to be positive about things. I love this team, don't like the current state, but it will get better, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Best Canucks news this week. Green was never the problem here. He’s gotten good results and generally overachieved with the rosters he’s been given to work with. And the players like him and have confidence in him. Cautiously optimistic this could mean Ian Clark also returns, as I’ve been hoping the team was holding off on announcing Clark until they’d made a decision and come to an agreement on Green, but that they might have had a handshake agreement on Clark for months, but just weren’t willing to create a distraction by signing an assistant coach/consultant before the head coach. We shall see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a bad year to be in the NHL in general. Team didn't have any practice time for the first 6 weeks, was completely exhausted and struggled with Covid for the last half of the season. We'll be fine next year, not worried at all. Wait and see! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
