I’m on #teamBo not #teamJT.

I’ve worked in organizations with broken leadership, it’s tough to motivate the people around you when they see the guys at the top being morons.

Miller just wants his cookies that’s all. Playing for next contract elsewhere. I’m so sick of seeing him pointing telling guys where to go, flipping his head back dramatically when a puck doesn’t come his way. No matter how crappy they are as a team, they are professional hockey players out there at the top of their field ... they’re not gonna respond to someone exhibiting that kind of body language embarrassing them in front of crowds and tv.

I say that admitting full well he’s the best skater out there for the canucks most nights. I just think he’s the douchiest nuck ever ... on a team that had kesler.

I don’t really get all the Bo hate. A captain can’t just try harder and will a fundamentally broken system and team to do better ... especially when half the team has given up waiting for a change.

Miller bringing the puck outta the zone himself with the goalie pulled and then blindly flipping one up the middle for icing is all one really needs to see. #gaveup

You'd like your captain to have his team be accountable instead of sitting back and saying, yeah there's nothing I can do.

It's time to blow up that dressing room and start over before we end up like an Edmonton a while ago and Buffalo a few years ago

It's coaching. This team has seen massive changes over the years and results are always the same.

It’s Babcock time…

Players will get a real dose of reality. Find out fast who is coachable & who needs discipline.

Petey can’t win a face off, and it was Green who moved him to centre right away when he came into the league.

Seen it happen a couple of times.

Funny, I was just thinking… Micah Aivazoff told me his buddy Victor Gervais told him someone beat the crap out of Glen Goodall who was a dynamic scorer in junior for Seattle. They made it work.

Goodall was such a dick his billets kicked him out of their house

I’ve never once seen or heard of Pettersson working on his faceoff skills, not once. Doesn’t mean it hasn’t happen but I’m sure the Vancouver media would’ve been all over that.

Yep I just wish they got their cup ... then I really wouldn’t care so much. 32 teams now, odds stacked may never happen in anyone’s lifetime on here.

Columbus is playing some pretty good hockey right. .647% hockey after firing Torts and Brad Shaw.

I don't know who decided that Shaw was such a great coach but maybe not true.

I've never seen a video of Bo Horvat practicing his skating with a power coach, doesn't mean it doesn't happen.

I watched Clb-Buf last night and it was an UGLY 7-4 game. It looked beer leagues.

Yet somehow they still look less lost out there than the Canucks do.

1st off is no Pres has made for a dysfunctional management group.

2nd the need for NHL coaches has been hindered by the same. Nobody running hockey operations is the root of everything. Weisbrod has no place in hockey.

3rd a Pres would be hands on & wouldn’t let this happen without changes. Any Pres beats no Pres.

It’s so obvious there is talent & it simply doesn’t disappear without a reason. Bye bye coaches & interim Shaw or why was he hired?
