How long before the Canucks make a coaching change? Interesting thought!

[scruffy]

if they keep performing like the way they did the other night i would think soon

[HARLEY]

It can not always be just the players-we do have some good ones-most of the time though it can be a real talent to receive the best from them-it is the same as any other job that if fact requires involvement of a group-They are nothing without the proper leader-Just my thoughts.

The coach is going nowhere. We have no offense and thats where the problem is not the coach. Time to make some trades for some proven goal scorers.

What would you trade??  There isn't really any person they could give up, other than the core players.  That would leave us the same problem.  They don't have any extra D to trade with, and not much in the line of prospects that anyone would want!!  I know you are going to say Morrison, but what would that do, can't get much for him, and you would be giving up offence for offense.

We shall see-I wonder who will part with proven goal scorers-lastly I wonder where the money would come from-I thought the salary cap was still effect-interesting thought though.

[bbronswyk2000]

Yes Morrison. They might have to trade a defenseman as well to get some talent. Meaning relying more on Luongo if that does happen. A mix up of even a couple players can make a huge impact sometimes.

[THE_ROE_SLINGER]

They are lacking offense!!!, however im going to have to agree, morrison is not worth much anymore. And the 1.9mil kesler is making He has 0 offensive talent

I don't think Vignault has much of a team to ice. The fault lies with Nonis.

I am still mad as hell  Nonis didn't sign Scott Niedermayer when he had the chance 2 years ago. Niedermayer's first choice was Vancouver but Nonis said he didn't have the money. I would have traded everyone on the defense, including Ohlund, to land Niedermayer. He's won everything there is to win, Memorial Cup (MVP), 3 Stanley Cups, Canada Cup, World Cup, World championship, Olympic gold, and the Norris Trophy. He would have been the offensive defenseman we've always coveted. Nonis simply blew it.

The Canucks brass just don't have the guts or the brains to make the smart deals.

Agree

Agree

Very interesting ideas--Who do you think would be the first to leave--The GM? Or the Coach? Or maybe a person may feel that everything will stay the same.  I think not...I think that there will be a move and soon...We shall see..

THey should have put Tambellini in charge. A BC boy who's played hockey and knows what he's doin'.

[Sterling C]

There are a lot of deals Nonis should have made since he became GM but hindsight is 20/20. Too bad he could see into the future or he could have made some of these deals...

Sign Brian Rolston at 2.4 mil
 
Sign Dustin Penner at leauge minimum

Sign Carter initially for a longer deal ie 3 years at 1.75 mil

Sign Teemu Selanne to a one year 1 mil deal or better yet a 2 year deal at 2mil
