Truly the only head coach to have done little since leaving the Canucks is Travis Green, and that is not that long ago. Travis is probably still under contract to the Nucks- does anyone know if the Canucks have given consent to him even looking for a job? I'd think they have, but do not know. I was referencing our last couple of coaches (WD, TG), the others go without saying, but I should have clarified. My bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torts is a pos. And will soon be once again out of work. The league is a better place without this idiot. So Terrible he won a Jack Adams in 2016/17 and was a runner up in 2020? 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torts is one of those coaches who gets the best out of what his team has. Given a good lineup he will get them going. I think the Flyers don’t have a good lineup. They will be as bad as the Habs this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was also less than 2 years into his tenure. He left when the Sedins retired and there was a lot of buzz that Benning’s perpetual retool song and dance (and the consolidation of power in a stripped down and cheaper head office) appealed a lot more to Aquilini than Lindens long term rebuild idea and ultimately led to Linden being forced out.

mll Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 A behind the scenes look at the Flyer's training camp. From the synopsis: In the first episode of The Standard, Flyers head coach John Tortorella sets the tone early at camp, the club faces an injury to one of its leaders, and new opportunity arises for prospects pushing toward roster spots.

DownUndaCanuck Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Sanheim might be on the market, we should swoop hard. Big 26 year old defenceman who's decent defensively, one of their few bright sparks. Not sure what they'd want or which direction they're going in but I'd give them Garland + 2nd for him.
