If the team falters with a coach like this than we know the team as a whole is incapable and serious changes need to be made. Roster reconstruction will be needed. I still have my concerns with the defense corp and bottom 6 even with an experienced coach but maybe the offense snaps out of the funk and can help Demko carry us to victories. I think we're going to need help on D and in our bottom six going forward regardless of who we've just brought in. We don't have a Sutter replacement on the roster, we never replaced Beagle. Not having players who can effectively do what they did has hurt us so badly this season. I've always been more concerned with our D and depth than our top six, but if Boudreau can't get Pettersson, Boeser, Hoglander, and Horvat going it'll definitely raise some interesting questions regarding roster contruction. We have talent in our top six, we just need the guys we have to play like they have in the past. I think they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Me_ Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 The bigger question is, does Boudreau benefit from having Kane in the lineup? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm expecting our D corps to look better because our wingers won't be leaving early to get over the red line to hopefully tip a slap-pass into the other end that no one has any momentum to retrieve (couldn't stand that). Hopefully BB improves the breakouts significantly by having better fwd support in our end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Don’t want Kane. I would question why the Canucks would want such possible trouble. A desperation move to make playoffs? Let Boudreau work with what he has and have the chips fall where they may. Pick at the waiver wire if someone interesting comes along. Otherwise circulate players from Abby. Not only is it a solid development move but a reward for Abby players and an advertisement to the NHL that Vancouver rewards players in their system.

Can blame management for bungling that one, and Tram himself to an extent. Wanted to stay home near his family, can't fault a guy for that.

Well if the Benning / Green duo pissed him off, perhaps he will be willing to try it out again with this new management… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or beforehand if he somehow gets out of it. Is it possible he returns? Yeah. But he could very well end up on any other NHL as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolexSub Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 To be honest Kane would be a good fit here for him as we need that toughness on the ice and he can score, hit, and fight!!! Don't you all agree we are still lacking toughness out there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
