Agreed. Bench him for a game or two might be a good idea.

Kid needs the Tryamkin treatment. Piss poor conditioning leading to piss poor decision making.

If we're talking meritocracy, then I think Brock needs to sit just so they can figure out what's wrong with him.

He is way off and sucking the life out of every line he's on. Looks more out of shape than a fat Ben Hutton.

Over/under on 67 points this year?

I still think they can squeak over but I must say I like the open play. Travis likely hates it but it’s more fun for the fans after five seasons of slop. I’m thinking Travis and Elmer get the boot if they don’t get to .500

lol why wish that? JB could easily trade his 1st rounder, 2nd rounder, a few prospects for a veteran goalie, someone like Justin Faulk and vet up front to reach the playoffs.

But we are letting the young guns play like Goldy, Pettersson, Boeser, young vets Horvat, Baertschi, Stech etc, while the prospects Gaudette, Dahlen, Juolevi develop on the farm.

This is the first season without the Sedins, it's a learning process for everyone involved.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

I didn’t say I wished it. Learn to read. He will get the hook with another garbage season and it’s got fuck all to do with wishing. Lol at Faulk and a vet up front being enough to propel this scabby team into the playoffs. Lay off the bath salts

How many goals against from the blue line or the slot due to Markstrom not being far enough out to cut the angle down?

Looks like he doesn’t
Trust his D to take the man down low.

They got to work on that

Based solely on the three games thus far, I'd be tempted to start calling him Brock Krutov; however, I saw that pre season presser picture that showed his noticeable upper body muscle gain. Way bigger than Bo and whoever else was sitting with them. Seems like he fell into that common trap of too much gain and too fast that has compromised speed, quickness, conditioning, etc. Hopefully he can shed some of that bulk sooner rather than later before the weight (no pun intended) of the press and fans crushes him.

Why is everyone so surprised about the goaltending? Not as though anythings changed.
Stecher is not the worst defenseman. Not even close.
Getting so sick and tired of this Green love.
He's a goof!! The only discipline he should be applying is to himself.
If he put himself in the press box, a team might be born.
He's twitched more than Willie in one year + 3 games.
Oh no, mick; you can't blame the coach for player accountability.
Ya, I can !
You can't blame the coach for the players running around like chickens with their heads chopped off.
Ya, I can !
It will NOT get better without structure. Something Green cannot supply.

Don't need to hear: But they tried an experienced coach with Torts.
No; Aqua thought it cool to hire an Italian.
