Not stupid at all. . The nucks wouldn't be making the playoffs with this lineup. . But Willie's player deployment was incredibly poor all year long
Call me crazy, but I thought the young guys like Baertschi, Horvat, Granlund, Stetcher all performed well under Willie.
Wow, didn't see this one coming , lol.
Firing the coach when the on ice talent is lacking is so lazy but not surprising.
The canucks have made two stupid moves in recent years 1) Hiring Mike Gillis as GM 2) Firing Desjardens today.
The man had nothing to work with and the team's current state is still the result of when Burke was GM.
Desjardens will be scooped up pretty quickly by a franchise that actually has depth to bottom.
I wouldn't be surprised if he did well somewhere else, he never had a good roster to begin with and still got decent results from them.
For the ¨irrationals¨ lineup decisions, every fans complains in every cities about these decisions when the team loses. If Mike Sullivan would have lost last year, every pens fans would have complain about Kessel on the 3rd line not being with Crosby or Malkin.
Im not saying Willie is a genius, im sure Canucks fans know what they are claiming but i would like to see this guy get a chance somewhere else before calling him atrocious. Give him a decent lineup + now he has experience. Why not Buffalo...
Should have fired Benning/Linden.
Yeah, but this is hockey's future. To some individuals here winning is getting the #1 overall pick. Gillis brought the Canucks very, very far from getting a #1 overall pick and is, therefore, a terrible GM in some people's eyes.Back to back presidents trophies and a trip to the finals. Gillis put together a dominant team.
