This isn't a 'coaching issue' as much as it is a player personnel issue. This team is just too soft and too slow. It's there for anybody to see, despite their run of success over the past couple of months.
It's funny, I told my Dad this morning we would be lucky if we were only down by 2 goals after half a period.Well that was quite shit really.
Imagine where the Flamers would be without Markstrom (who they didn't even play today), Tanev, Toffoli, Tkachuk, and Rasmussen. And they've even got f***ing Lucic and Gudbranson rumbling around there. Benning built a better team in Alberta than he did here.
No beef with Halak. Stuff gets said in the heat of the moment when shit goes south sometimes...not as if the game wasn't over by the time he came long.
No idea what has to happen for some people around here to admit to themselves the Canucks just aren't ready to seriously compete and need to make major changes before they are. OEL and Myers are trash. Massively, stupidly expensive trash. And that's just the beginning. Look at the deal Lindholm just signed in Boston, then look at Myers and OEL's deals.
And there are people still defending Benning. Insane.
I can’t even decipher what this post is intending to say. Is this even English?View attachment 518658
Amazing leadership sitting on the side he did, you can really tell Miller is the true captain of the room. Unlike that bum horvat sitting on the opposite side. What was he thinking?
Hell start him again vs Buffalo. Give Demko a rest. Sadly our chances of making playoffs are so slim to none.He was told on the bench by Bruce at the end of the 2nd that he was going into the 3rd. His reaction was bad.
Elliot Freidman speculates that he thought he was going to play tomorrow, and him going in tonight would mean Demko is starting tomorrow and he felt he was being cheated a start.
