Maybe the first 3 are correct but you bring in a guy that averages around 60 points a season and he gets 24. That one is on the player.

They feel the kids need a strong leader behind them. I think they need someone they can connect with, learn from, grow with.

Not really. Same as Vrbata. Given his opportunity by the coach has one of the best seasons ever. Coach takes that away, he sucks. Goes to Arizona, given another good opportunity and does well. On the coach.

People here think we ned someone to open the gate and send out kids and next year we get 50 wins.

There are some on here that have posted that we have gone through now 3 coaches and still get the same result.

Then you get the know it alls but I wont single anyone out (Hefty) .

We don't have the players to finish out of the bottom 5 so no coach is going to make a difference.

We will draft high this year and again next year and probably the year after,

I personally don't see why they fired WD with this in mind. If you want to appease fans, just tell us you 100% committed to a rebuild and the retool failed.
I do however think there are better and worse mentor types, Green is a rookie coach teaching rookie players... I don't like it, personally. But I'll leave it alone now.

For an article trying to prove a point, they should made a lot of comments about how it isn't perfect. There a lot of exceptions. They science isn't always right. That was only 5v5 points counted too.

Got it. Facts be damned.
I hope the Canucks can turn it around. Nothing better than to have all Canadian teams in the playoffs next year and every year.

I was just trying to say it wasn't fair desjardins got fired and a bunch of guys seem to think I am trolling. Not my intent at all. I want all Canadian teams to do well.
