Virtanen has his best developing season under Green. Not sure how you could ask for anything more. You expect Green to suddenly make Virtanen a 30 goal scorer or soemthing ? What the hell is your expectations on "developing him faster"? Your whole premise is absurd.
And, yeah. Boeser, Pettersson.... you know. Those guys. They have done pretty well under Green.
Other than those players, who else does Green have to really work with? You expecting Lind to suddenly become an NHLer because Green is the coach?
Everything you've suggested is weird considering most young players on the Canucks have seen success under Green. Who hasn't ? Who are these young players Green's "mythe" is ruining ?
Both Hutton and Virtanen, who were developing poorly have both rebounded this season under Green, so who are we missing here ?
Basically. What the **** are you talking about ?
You do realize Virtanen only had two coaches since his turned pro. You are pretty much saying Green is a better coach than Willy. That's it.
With Green, Virtanen is now a player that can take a regular shift and is reliable. That's all, I do expect more offence. 3 goals in his last 31 games. In term of 5 on 5. The numbers is pretty the much the same during his first season. He hasnt improve. Since he is more reliable he has opportunities to get some empty net points and with the lack of depth he gets some pp time as well. The number 5 on 5 It hasn't improve.
Pettersson and Boeser. They can perform with any coaches. Green very little to do with it.
Goldobin still hasn't a lot of work to do
Hutton rebounded with Green. Sure but he also had his worst season under Green. When Green took over both Button and Stecher took a step back.
In Utica which regular forward or defencemen became a regular in the nhl. Only Virtanen. The reason why Green got hired because he was good at developing young players. Yet only Virtanen made the nhl out All the forwards and defence in the ahl.
Pouliot. I don't expect much from Pouliot but a good coach might be able to turn him into a reliable number 7th D like Biega. Pouliot shouldn't even play any nhl games.
All those years with Markstrom in ahl and nhl. Markstrom is finally looking like a ok number 1 goalie. That a along time
