Green is coaching for his career/ job. I doubt he gives a b level rookie a shot while they are in the race. Can’t blame him.
- CanuckDon

Even if they are mathematically eliminated do you think he’s going to rest Horvat so Lind can play? Every game matters...

His career is safe. It's the job that might not be. Honestly, as a B level rookie, how much worse can Lind be than Gaudette? Gauds got a decent look and share of icetime despite Green Coaching for his livelihood.

All Lind really has to show to earn minutes is some hustle, a willingness to finish checks and some semblance of defensive responsibility. Any offense is gravy.

Do you actually believe Lind will make a difference?
- CanuckDon

Yes.

I think that when you're a bottom 5 team then take your lumps and your draft picks. Don't trade them or sacrifice your draft position by trying to be competitive by signing high priced FA's to longer deals.

Shortcuts rarely work in life. Anyways, it's the hand we're playing now so I just want a better poker player moving forward.

Maybe Green should take over as GM, I hear he’s pretty good at the poker.

With the 1st overall pick the Canucks select Dirk Graham.

Zac Mac would have scored that one.

Vesey having a rough start. If we roast him enough he'll score 2

Green has really helped Virtanen's defensive game this past 5 years.

Ottawa's plan tonight is to just skate right by the Canuck defence.

That's why you don't have a left shoot D playing on the right side. Great now his trade value is cut in half.

Truth be told, he has. It's gone from like 2 to 3.5.. but I think Jake's ceiling is 4

Holy Fuck Schmidt.

It's a scale of 50.

Yes it matters. Playoff race

No but I’m sure Benning will instruct him to give the kids some ice

Canucks just move the puck so slowly.

That was brutal. The extra pepperoni was him sliding on his belly past the play as the shooter waited.

True. At least OJ has an answer.

It's been a decade since we competed for the cup, 10 years of spending to the cap.
