How was green offensive minded?

He was gifted good goaltending over his entire tenure as coach and still has terrible goal differentials every season

He let the run and gun happen but just preached that players needed to "get back" and play the 200ft game. He let the game open up alot more than other coaches. Bruce is similar but at least has some experience.

Give it 6 months until #teamwhiner is calling for the heads of the new staff...

Maybe. It kinda depends on what they do? Who’s team whiner? Asking for a friend. Team whiner wanted changes years ago, you figured it out a few weeks ago.

Ovechkin has a desire to win, always has, but I don't know about "heart". Ovechkin didn't start back checking until a few years ago. He has evolved and matured so much in the last few years, but he was dogpoop defensively for soo long.

Boudreau has always been an offense first coach. I think we see the players with a bit more creative freedom.

Friend said that to me but I don't remember him that way in Minnesota. It was always a very boring game against Minny.

I also remember the teams he had having very different personnel than what the Canucks currently have.

Can't wait until we go off the board at next year's draft and pick a real sleeper from Sweden

Might work out as well as Virtanen or OJ. Hopefully we don’t wait 8 years to figure it out. I’m kind of amazed such a failure of a GM in franchise history still has so much support.

Dirty. Drop the gloves and square up if you want to play tough hockey. Glad the Kings scored 3 on the powerplay.

🤙 that’s why many were quick to replace him. Boring and winning is one thing, losing is another.

Nope. Win is a win.

Brucey has experience coaching some very talented players over the years and Canucks need that.

I didn't realize Scott Walker was drafted by the Canucks.

It’s not like I’m expecting them to go on a run or anything. At this point I’ll be satisfied with basic competence. From the ice to the management box.

With no actual GM in place, personnel changes will have to come within the organization. Good thing Abbotsford is close and Bruce can go see if Cull has anything for him.
