The next coach should be either Terry or Chris as they are rolling, rolling, rolling onto the golfing season.

I 100% agree with you ... I think Pat Quinn is too old school in his thinking to be an effective GM but I think he makes a great coach... he made some of the biggest bonehead trades of the Canucks History when he was here but he always managed to inspire the players as a coach.... I really hope he ends up here again.. I like Crawford, but if given the choice between the two I think it would be a no brainer

Absolutely true. He could have assembled a very good team with the talent he traded away. I amazed how long he lasted as GM with his track record.

Saying that, my resume is in the mail as I get so many Personal Messages from the team that they read and enjoy The Journal. However if I got the job my journal would be about the road to the Stanley Cup and the readers of The Journal on this forum could drop considerably. ;D ;D ;D

Well, Mojo, he might be pretty close pretty soon!!! ;D ;D
I agree with Rick, I actually hope that Quinn comes this way, then we might be able to get something out of the overpaid superstars if Nonis wimps out on trading some or all of them!! ;D

Post by: Terry Bodman on April 20, 2006, 06:37:25 PM: My take is that the owners hired the GM so his job is safe or they (the owners) would be admitting a mistake had been made. The players can't be fired; they are under contract. Let's see.....who does that leave???? ???

Post by: Fishin Freak on April 20, 2006, 07:07:02 PM: Maybe it's time for a coach swap, the nucks and laughs swap coaches and see what happens. Wouldn't be surprised if it actually did happen.
