Not Ruff, please not Ruff. Imagine how bad the PR will be when he isn’t the answer and they have to move on from him a year or two later. It’s Berube or Gallant.

I’d like to see him under a new coach. That doesn’t work, move on.

How about Harrington on Twitter and in his column suggesting Bruce Boudreau. Another great guy but if people think we were country club under DG, just wait. The Canucks got a new coach bounce when he came in but once everyone realized there was no structure it started to fade. Adams said he wanted structure and here’s MH suggesting BB. Such a bad take.

I think this is the first time KA hasn’t talked about the team with kid gloves on. I liked it. He’s put the team on notice. He legit looked pissed off for the first time. Get the coaching hire right. Tweak the roster and we should improve. Also this is the last chance surely for KA. This next season will be make or break.

I’m not so sure Ruff is the answer. Been there, done that. It’s not a slight to say this. I think we look even more foolish by bringing back the guy who was the last to get us in the playoffs. It would be a why’d ya get rid of him in the first place narrative and just give more ammunition to the pundits. We do need someone who will hold these kids more accountable though. Again, Tocchet, wasn’t sold on him being the answer in Vancouver but they’ve gone wire to wire this season and few saw them making the playoffs this year. He holds those kids accountable. All of them, from top to bottom.

We can work with him, can’t we? He’s as ugly as we should go 😂

I think it’s time to start hiring some handsome guys. Enough of these balding, or hanging onto their hair guys. Let’s get some stud behind the bench. If we can’t win in the ice let’s win on good looks!

Dylan for the love of god just put the puck behind your net and re-start. This season can’t end soon enough for Cozens

Thompson with the win. Greenway well done. THAT needs to happen just a bit more often.

We are coached not to hit. And it seems getting to the net is an attitude problem with most in Sabres. Look at the Canucks goals against Vegas the other night. Garland, and EP40 camping out in front of the crease. Garland with two goals from the paint. It’s an attitude and they’re not coached to do it. And if they are then the message has not resonated with the players. Aside from Benson.

Detroit with the absolute worst empty net percentage in nhl history 😂

They have to blow those dead. Idc, it’s a puck in the mouth and the ref sees it all the way. As soon as the Detroit guy passed the puck it should be blown. If he shoots it right away fine.

Imagine if this team was ready to start games? That to me, is on the coaching staff not having them ready to go. The sample size is ample.

Is there a way to see how many have muted a user?

Power with the right coach will be just fine. He’s a child. He needs time.

I think the talk at the exit meetings should center around getting stronger for sure. Thompson is 6’7” but plays like he is a foot shorter. Cozens needs to get bigger for sure. Power too. 💯 agree on that sentiment.

I believe there are guys on the team that this doesn’t phase them. Dylan Cozens, Tuch, Dahlin, this eats them up. Cozens is not there just collecting, this is seriously hurting him. His character and roots dictate that. He will be better. But he needs a vocal coach to rid him of the fry. My goodness I’m not so sure. Some wanted to move on from Hedman early on.

Cozens is all heart and this is hurting him and his pride. But I don’t see him being the type to just keep accepting this. He will try to improve. I believe that. His vocal fry, however, belongs on the bachelor. Insaid it in another thread but when Sergei Gonchar offers advice to a Quinn Hughes, his resume dictates that he should be listened to and respected. Matt Ellis commands absolutely nothing. As for Byram I’m not so sure he will bolt so soon but it could mean Power is moved for other pieces.

We really are embarrassing. Drop that pos Bertuzzi

To be fair, the Oilers were playing like a$$ at the start, but their team was loaded with talent and they were a Cup pick before season started. The Canucks were nowhere near projected to be where they are and don’t have the best two forwards in hockey. Tocchet will/should win the Adams.

Look no further than Vancouver to see what a coaching change and a staff of very good assistants can do.

Well put. In off season I try to move Skinner and retain whatever we have to within reason. If no trade, he has to be bought out. Tonight it looked like Cozens was not into it. Definitely need some vets who will ruffle feathers. Coaching staff has to change. An example of not being ready was tonight and to not call a timeout at 2, then 3 nothing is unacceptable. Feelings being hurt doesn’t matter either. UPL didn’t have it tonight and after 3 he should have been pulled. The game was salvageable at 3 and Levi playing well game them a chance. Off season is gonna be very interesting, or it should be.

Katchouk giving g Dahlin the feigning head butt lol and Dahlin paid him no mind.

Levi big save.

I’m actually super surprised by this. Quite remarkable tbh. we should have two ourselves. UPL just didn’t have it tonight.
