Also, the realization that if he doesn't grow as a coach and change a few things, he may never coach in the NHL again. I'd take Babcock in a heartbeat. Instant credibility. I think if he demonstrates that he's learned from his previous times with Detroit and Toronto, then and only then he could be a good candidate to replace Green.

If he's learned from his mistakes and has grown as a coach and as a person, then he deserves a second chance to prove that. If he hasn't, then he can remain coaching the U of Saskatchewan team.

Fair enough. Thing is, available, veteran coaches are few and far between. He's an egomaniac, but I think this team could use that.

I'm not judging one way or the other, I'm just saying I'd be surprised if the canucks touched it with a 10 foot pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'd be surprised as well. I think Boudreau is probably a better candidate than Babcock. Bruce can coach high octane offense, he just can't seem to win in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I wouldn't go back to Torts. We tried that before. I'd give a shot to Boudreau or Julien. Julien is more defensive minded isn't he? Wouldn't that be the same ilk as Green?

Got to try and make the best of it with rumours and ideas. If only Aqualini put in this much effort to try and fix the team. Gotta talk about something different than the same old $&!# we've been talking about for days and weeks now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
