No, those things sound good on the surface level but lead to costly mistakes, we can play that way once the core matures, not yet.

Standing up at the blueline leads to potential for getting beat and giving up a clean breakaway.

Moving the puck too quickly from your own zone to unsuspecting forwards leads to turnovers and icing calls(Schmidt did it many times this year).

Myers and Edler played the right way that Green wanted

oh okay. i just thought you were presenting the opposite view of your own in a way that trolls the people who are supporting the team in a sincere fashion.

glad you cleared that up.

They’re all good men to an extent(FA may be shady), but yeah the lack of cheekbones and strong jawlines/chins is a bit concerning for leaders amongst men

it was game over the day JV told Green that A&W was out of onion rings and that's why they were missing from the coach's order.

sadly, when JV told Green that, he got too close... Green could smell the onions on JV's breath.

Anything Nucker posts is pure hyperbolic sarcasm/irony. That's how I read it anyways. Though he's quickly moving to NFU/NuckUp territory of just purely skipping over.

You're a good poster. The kind that would brag about walking onto 5th Ave and get away with shooting someone.

Those bubble playoffs were the worst thing that could have happened to this organization


Imagine rewarding a coach who develops a system where you allow the
most shot attempts against
Most odd man rushes against
Worst neutral zone defense

Nothing official yet but it sounds like Travis Green and the #Canucks have agreed on an extension. Working on the rest of the coaching staff

- VanHockeyGuy


The entire NHL thinks this is the right call. Except for those that think a system is player execution failures.

Green should learn from his mistakes and have an augmented coaching staff.

Those contributing factors were not the sole reasons to losing. There's a lot of work to do. Though having some player upgrades in place will be a good step.

They both ran the team that tormented us in 2011. Not exactly a losing combination

Turns out everyone gets a mulligan.

No major changes.

Maybe Sedins in advisory roles.

And Hire a President (again).

New assistant coaches.

Tweak.
