Why did i drink that much last night?
The Canucks looked a bit tentative in the first period last night ..Its apparent that there is still confusion on some zone exits (BB said they will be working on that today), still quite a bit of 'you take it, Ive got it'.........The good teams have these breakouts down pat, split second one touch passes...and you're off.
Its almost as of BB has taken the shackles off a bit, and gone back to simplifying their game..Small sample size, but it looks a style which is a lot more conducive to the players we have.
He is a dinosaur coach..to put it mildly..he's funny though..swears a lot..like a 'bad grandpa'....He said that one of the most important things was to have the players (and the fans) having fun again..Working so far..

Yeah there was a short video. The fans went nuts! Edler did a quick lap and you could tell he thought the noise would die down, but the fans just kept cheering and he stood there sheepishly waving. Shame it wasn't on TV, he deserved a thanks from the home fans as well, even if he wouldn't have heard it.Was there a video or anything for Edler? Sportsnet went to commercial at the first stoppage instead of letting us, home viewers, see him get a standing O, so was wondering if there was a sweet video for him?
Absolutely agree
Jb’s biggest 2 mistakes were hiring Willie and Green
and also not punting Green when it was apparent Green was in incompetent
As we begin to turn it around under a real coach remember who put the core that is winning together
I have been saying that this roster is capable of winning. Green and Baumer were the problems. We should have fired King
We should have cleaned out the coaching staff in the off season. Dim jim made alot of mistakes but he also made some good moves. Would have preferred we waited until we saw what real coaches could do with what we have

That it wasn’t shown on TV is …. Interesting.
Hard to give BB too much credit for a single win....
The two most significant things that looked different were - D were less aggressive and stayed home more... - he mentioned that in his presser pre game - wanted our players on the right side of puck more than they have been... and pinching aggressively doesn't help being on the right side of the puck.
and 2 - more aggressive/less passive PK.... fricken no brainer move. ABSOLUTELY mind boggling the previous regime refused to change the strategy. They will eventually get burned by fantastic puck movement thru the slot... but man it was nice to see the change up..
Otherwise the game is just so dynamic between the whistles that the guys just play... 1 practice aint gonna change anything significant...
This is a group players that should be 95+ playoff challenging team... fully hoping this spurrs them back to that level of play.
They didn’t show any video. Usually we see the videos on TV. Especially for big names.They did show it - it's been common in the recent past that the Canucks show their tribute videos during a commercial break, and the feed usually comes back in when the player is getting cheered by the fans at its conclusion. That definitely happened last night - they showed Edler getting showered with praise by the fans and saluting them back.
