canuckster19 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 What difference does any of this make if he’s just an Aquilini puppet? I’m beginning to think that’s all this is now. Any other team would have bare minimum hired a new coach by now. I’m officially apathetic, I just don’t really care until there is some kind of major change. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is about going too far in my opinion. Really? Going to far? With the facts? With reallity? With raising current affairs and specific viewpoints and news discussion items for further analysis and discussion here on CDC? Unfortunately, the team has been in a very long funk and many long time supporters (as in several decades) have lost the faith in where this team is going and are NOT satisfied with mediocre, last place finishes year after year and demand more - especially when we put our money where our mouth is and are STH's, as I have been for decades. Uncle Jim/Green have had almost a decade/or less to prove themselves and here we sit today; Mid November in the basement with the season pretty well lost again! Does this satisfy anyone? How many years or decades should Jim be allowed? Keeping dirty little secrets and failures hidden and not openly discussing them - does nothing to prompt anyone to fix things. Why do you think the Canucks Owners, management, coaches and players are presently under extreme pressure to get the ship righted? Rest assured I'm in bed with this team, likely like all of us are but insist that everyone keep the pressure on this organization until change occurs or we'll be talking about 28th place finishes for the foreseable future! However, for those content with the status quo - I respect your opinion! Go Canucks go! Edited November 24, 2021 by RU SERIOUS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general these tyoes of voluntary polls tend to draw out the people who really have an ax to grind one way or another and are more than willing o jump at an opportunity to make their cause known. I think if this were to be conducted in a more statistically valid format you would still get a majority of people agree with this result but it would be far less from 94% Edited November 24, 2021 by GB5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No surprise that the poster has used the survey's answer to bolster his own thoughts on it. In short, a confirmation bias is a confirmation bias. The people have also spoken here on the forums - Green is highly unpopular here and we want change. I agree, polls like this on talk shows or conducted by the media are intended to generate discussion but in no way should be taken as definitive evidence to prove a point.

Interestingly enough, most daily polls on that show draw-in 1500 to 2500 respondands on a typical day, with no more than 60-70% leaning one way or another on any given question. However this poll drew in an unusually high number of respondants with an extremely one sided response. So, I would suspect that even in a more controlled format, we'd still see extremely high - one sided numbers against Jim, which pretty well echo what we see on this board, as there are only a smattering of die-hard Jim B supporters left lying around - here & there. Most "Normal people" have "seen the light" by now and are resigned to the reality of our current situation Jim left us in! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely different! Only those that think otherwise are WRONG! If you don't trust him to make a trade, how can you trust him to run the team?
