I don't discount what you say as wrong ...but you believe with the right coach the Canucks are a playoff team ...this has to be taken into account when reviewing your opinion on any hockey matters

Hey, be nice, we all sounds like Jack assess once in a while...
Even me!

I feel your pain brother. I too get frustrated when I post my opinion and folks on here don't take it as fact.

I just shake my head in disbelief.

not opinion....systems info IS fact, what isnt is its integration on certain teams. Stuff I posted on the kings awhile back was though

Why are you oversimplifying coaching? It's not just tapping a guy to go over the boards and yell play hard.

You noticed how the Oil D is playing so well. They got bombed 7-0. Adjustments made. Now, the CBC crew are calling them an asset and even throwing Hedman comparisons out to Klefbom. That's part of coaching.

I never said coaching has no place ...but to think every result has some tie in to the brilliance or idiocy of a coach is asinine ...hockey is played by players

I dont think your accurate with my beliefs.... more so we would be improved and on our way to playoffs. It IS possible however to be turned into playoff team sooner if its the right staff. Possible, not probable. Theres a difference

and who said that? misquoting or not following me

Close but no cigar...what really happened was the Larsson trade which allowed Klef to be more offensive since Larsson could protect the defensive end...also the signing of Russel helped as well....as much as you guys want to hang it all on coaching its really a combo of the GM coach and players

I'll use the adding of stone to Brodie's game ...weird how he looked like an ahl D man with bums and gets someone decent and he looks like himself ...coaches must have got through to him

I went to a friends restaurant tonight for dinner and there was an Alpha Romeo in his staff parking lot, I thought it was my friends because he has a Porsche and a Mercedes. So I said when did you get the Alpha? his response shocked me "oh that belongs to my new dishwasher and delivery guy" "it must be nice to be the only child in an Asian family" no poop.

But ...but ...Pittsburgh

and who said that? misquoting or not following me
- SMBDragon

You ...you always blame coaching for lack of results and praise it for wins

Go back and look ..it's there

But ...but ...Pittsburgh
- Redmile247

and there isnt the same circumstances here with same coach. Youve mistaken what Ive meant

So the 1 time I pick sharks to win a series and they blow it. Oh well I am happy with the 4th and Goldobin.
That trade for Larson sure looks good, he is a fine defenseman, so is Russell Sekera Nurse and Klefbom. Definitely a team to be concerned about for years to come.

yep it is.
and its there for a reason.

look you dont subscribe to it, so what?? Just dont say its not so just because you arent onboard with it

You used Pittsburgh as your example over and over again

I don't think you have to be concerned with Edmonton anytime soon

Actually...I'm pretty sure the people in this thread would rather never hear a dam thing about coaching ever again.

No we are at least 5years away, the rest of the league should be concerned.

yes when people say it doesnt matter, then I do use it. Just dont read into it too far either.

Rinne Lundqvist Talbot Allen Fleury. Its all about goaltending so far... also Elliot on the flipside

yep it is.

I believe coaching can be a huge factor in a game or for a team. ...but I still see how some coaches can't make a crap team better ...

- Bullfrog77

probably....and Ive pretty much retired from it. BUT people keep commenting.
If they dont wanna hear about it then they should stop asking

depending on the coach. Carlyle had the leafs in the playoffs and had the game 7 in the bag against the bruins....he DID make a crap team better, and they went back to supreme crap after he was gone

They will be a good team for years ...

You have used them as an example and mentioned playoffs for Canucks

Go back and look it's all there
