Fire Travis Green

[stampedingviking]

None of the early criticism of Green has been "the team isn't winning". Not around here, anyway.

No, it's worse, it's fire him before he's even got his feet under the table, just because it was Benning gave him the job.

Green is probably handcuffed to certain roster passengers. Handicap any Coach with millions in uselessness and see how he fares.

Good point. What is any coach going to do with Loui Eriksson for the next 5 years at 6 million? There are several others.

Calling out to fire Green 5 games into the season is pretty ridiculous.

As bad as it is, the Canucks are playing a more exciting game of hockey right now than any time in the past 3 seasons.

Only one more thing to make me happy will make you unhappy, dump Vanek and replace with Goldobin. Then three out of four lines will have a younger player to get excited over.

Without looking at numbers We've definitely seemed to improve at zone entries under Green, also did a good job of forcing Buffalo to dump the puck yesterday but their systems were a mess.

Had to double check the Sedins minutes when I saw how dry Daniel was in the post game interview

people are extremely dumb, despise how fickle and impatient canuck fans are.

If I were still a mod, I'd have closed this thread. It has changed my opinion on down voting.

And my post had nothing to do with winning. I predicted people would hate Green and sure enough I am right.

You should become a mod at the Canucks official forum and just ban anyone who disagrees with you.

 

[Nomobo]

Have the last couple of games changed anyones mind about Green?

Cutting back on the Sedins ice time seems to have transformed this team, like they have a new identity or something...

Wrong as usual. Pretend it's a North American thing if you want.

This.

Some opinions are too stupid to be allowed to breath. Smother them in their sleep.

Pretty quiet here for the past couple days.

Virtanen just had more ice time than both twins and played his best game.
So did Boeser
Horvat led the team in ice time.

In fact the Sedins have played some of the lowest minutes on the team for the past two games, and they are playing fine. They aren't hurting the team.

After reading this thread, this is what you all wanted. So what's next?

 

[VanJack]

Is Green a quality NHL coach?....too early to say for certain.....but compared to the last guy, it's like hitting your head with a hammer and then stopping....it actually feels better.

Under Willie that 4-1 lead would have evaporated...the rink would have tilted; they'd have been under siege in their own zone; and Miller would have been pelted with rubber. And even if they'd won, they'd be hanging on.....that was actually a pretty tidy third period and the Wings never looked like they were ever going to get back in it.

 

[GetFocht]

what a stupid thread.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Alrught, I'm eating my own words here
Green bitch slaps me multiple times with some good coaching decision last few games.
Still,I want to see the Sedins off the PP

 

[Royal Canuck]

Lol.

This is quite the thread.

I don't care if we have Stan Bowman behind the bench, this team isn't going anywhere, no point in going through a coaching parade with a team that can't do anything.

Green's major job realistically is developing the young players at this point.

Proposal - rename this thread "Travis Green for Jack Adams"

 

[iFan]

Green hasn’t been a problem here, he’s working with the kids great and has even cut the Sedins ice time. Green seems to have been doing a great job with the young players.

 

[Uhmkay]

I had to actually go to the first page of this thread to see if it was made in all seriousness or as a joke...

Hilarious that it was a serious thread at the time.

 

[vannuckles]

What a silly thread this is....

Don't worry ..after a few losses (which are inevitable)..the Chicken Little Squad will be back out, reigniting this thread.

 

[ItalianCanuck1]

Hope this thread will become the Hfboards version of 'Do we really need Alex Burrows'.

Since WTG is a mod perhaps he can make that change for us.

I predict it will only take one loss. Possibly even a Shootout Win.
