Stay tuned for their next great hit to be used by Canucklehead fans, "Swoosh, Here I go!"
Professionals don't "work to rule" if they have any pride at all. Professionals also don't treat their coaches the way Boudreau was treated if they also want any further longevity in their careers. What sort of established coach (other than Rick "Perennial Loser" Tocchet) would work for someone like that?
Solid rebuttal. Glad to see you have an interesting perspective when someone disagrees with you.
No, I note posters that simply take numbers and will disagree as their rule with certain other posters.
Because some people want to see the world burn.
It isn't pretty when an org is rife with lack of direction and everybody pointing fingers. Chaos takes hold.
This feels like a “it will get worse before it gets better” situation.Because some people want to see the world burn.
My take is that the management is fed up with the whole club. Its their own fault, they hired these punter players. But not unlike when the Oilers hired Eakins because really management couldn't stand their own players and lol as they hired mr Eakins to run a boot camp on them and Ference to be captain of the circus.
I mean I'm glad when its happening to another club. Its better watching this kind of stuff from a distance.
Wouldn't surprise me. But Bruce was also involved in this in making it about him. He was being part of the distraction. Really now going back and looking at some videos Bruce has been struggling. But it gets a bit old. In retrospect Nucks probably should have got him out of there as it did become a carnival side show and wasn't helping the players focus. It seldom does when dead coach is walking.
It just looks odd because the one thing that I feel has been consistent in my observation is "Drivesaitl is spending a lot of energy defending the Canucks organization and I have no idea why."
Humans have varied emotions, reactions. I'm not having the same one about Boudreau that some other people are. Which is fine. The Nucks are a clown show top to bottom. But Boudreau was an awful coach there. On a level of what Pat Quinn was here.
Exactly. Losing record and 1 playoff appearance. If this guys the answer, wtf was the question?
Fair enough. You don’t have to feel bad. The firing was justifiable.
Right? That guy is terrible haha.
When boudreau swept in there a lot of posters here were saying that they were even worried about the Nucks. seem to recall you may have been one of them. Just saying this because its off kilter to say now that the team isn't constructed right now but to have been worried about the club last spring.
I’ll take “how do we torpedo this franchise even further for 500 Alex”?
Rutherford just being Rutherford hiring his Penguin alumi. I read Gonchar and another former Penguin player are going to be assistants or have a role elsewhere in the org.
I think he purposely tries to look unbiased and/or was told to by Sportsnet because he's actually an Oiler fan believe it or not. He was at one of our games recently. I also met him a long time ago and can confirm he's an Oiler fan. Super chill dude. But yeah, not my favourite announcer by any means.
Ofcourse the Nucks have been bad. They're vezina level goaltending got injured and they had it replaced with .880 quality goaltending.
Whos. the other guy?
Demko numbers were bad too. No goalie could hold up this stink show in Vancouver. Was amazing that Demko was doing it for long as he did. Nucks are AWFUL defensively. They're getting miles better goaltending than say LA gets.
