Post Game; Bo Horvat. 5:58 min.
"We should be embarrassed" - Bo Horvat.
Post Game; Travis Green. 5;19 min.
Green: "Very disappointed in the whole game. We weren't close tonight. We looked like we had a bunch of guys that were a half step behind. We had a lot of guys that weren't very good tonight."
Green: "We have a lot of guys that need to show their character next game and respond with a much better effort."

So it would be tre cool to hear this interview response in reverse.

Horvat: Yeah, I think the coaching staff blew chunks tonight. They seem to have trouble getting the boys motivated and I don't know what's up with our special teams systems. Did Jason King even play hockey?

They're gonna have to stop coaching from a half period behind and step their games up or we're not gonna sniff the post season any time soon.

I'm still trying to figure out who spoke up for Travis in last years exit interviews.

I can only think it was just Francesco personally.

The rest of they boys completely deny it.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.

even the Colorado commentators were commenting on how they couldn't figure out why the Canucks can't score, especially when they look at the roster

I know, too many fancy passes, period end of story. QH is a freaking great passer but his shot from the point doesn't scare anyone, OEL seems ok as well as Myers but not sure of the other 3. Canucks needs to get more shots to the net and they really need to shake some shit up.

Those 3 fingers went down to quick, may need to do 2 more and that means 5 which means a whole fist, my lucky night. :mrgreen:

Haha. Fuck yeah, I could totally hear Bo's thoughts being muttered out loud.

The whole room is like, "What? I didn't vote for the guy."

"Hey, who da fock is this Jason King guy? Does he look like he knows what he's doing?"

"Dunno. Heard he played with the Sedins once and scored a bunch of goals with them."

"Yeah, like Loui?"

"Oh, shit..."

Big Frank has to learn that going all in means not only trading away all your draft choices and spending to the cap on player contracts, it also means bucking up and not cheaping out on the coaching staff.

Keeping the guy around you brought up from the AHL and his Canucks alumni assistants isn't that.

Fuck what an embarrassment. If this isn't the turning point starting tomorrow then you have to gun TG and his sea of Bumgarners immediately. The season can be salvaged, they aren't way out of any race but it has to start tomorrow.

Green can’t coach top end players but he can coach a sea of Schallers thats for sure

Frank does have his mitts all over this - the impatient win now trades, I’m hearing that he badly wants to win the Cup before he kicks the bucket,

I can't believe he did that stupid interview after the game. I know there's some what of a pre-commitment to do them but this was one of those times you close the dressing room door with a fuck-off taped to it.
In that interview; He sounded like a beaten man. No answers. Basically put it on the team not following the plan. Yah, right!
Get him outta here.
Wasn't keen on Horvat's take on the game either.
