List of coaches on Canucks Alplication sheet

[Mr Base]

So far we hear names of Dave Tipett. Lindy Ruff, John Stevens, Scott Arniel, and Toronto farm team coach.
I am sure there will be few other guys on that list. Mr. Robinson should be if he wants to be a head coach.
Stevens is young enough and tough enough to do the job. Tipett is like AV politicly correct. Ruff is tough and he does speak out. Arniel in my opinion should be a assistant for two years.
All of you hockey guys in your opinion who would do the best job out of these few names?

 

[RL RCD]

The only guy who can do something with this Canucks team is Joel Quenneville - no one else.

Thanks rich2. We signed you up for the mini camp.

 

[Mr Base]

Trace who do you think will get the job from Gillis and the owners. It surly has to be some one level headed. Or this club will fall apart. They do have three good kids in the farm program. I just do not think with addition of Jensen and Mallet or the other Gaunce Ontario kid is enough. They must make drastic move and add a first line winger that can dish out and put the puck in the net. It might cost a good D but with out scoring there is no way of winning in the playoffs That is if they make it next year. In my opinion Edmonton is going to start rocking and with addition of Jets in this div. it might get harder.

Add John Tortorella to the mix. Just got canned in NY. That would be fun to watch!!!!

I wouldn't want him here as a coach but would absolutely LOVE to see/hear him rip Chapman or Botchford a new one.

Tortorella is a great coach. The Rangers didn't have the right mix imho.

He and Gillis could either be an awesome combo or oil and water, no in between.

Tortorella had a young team with aging vets when they won that Cup against the Flans... Not that we're in any rush for a Cup (roster wise today anyways) but he might be a great fit.

They hire Tortorella and there is zero chance the Sedins resign. Say what you want about the Sedins in the playoffs but we either try to resign them or we loose them next summer for nothing. Then our top six is really thin going forward and we are officially in complete rebuild mode. Personally I feel with the right coach and players around them, plus the NHL not fully going back to the dead puck era, the Sedins still have 3 or 4 good years left in them.

I couldnt disagree more with this.....he is a terriable coach.....he should stick to showing his uneducated mug between nick kypreos and Matthew Barnaby

 

[Mr Base]

We must get twins to stay. These guys get the team into playoffs year after year. There is no way Gillis is bringing Tortorella here. He can coach but he border line mad man. Gillis would fire that guy after ten games. I am surprized that one of the players does not clock that guy. Paul Maurice is one of the best coaches out there. He is young enough and does have Stanley cup win. It remains fun to speculate who the lucky guy is. It will cost the club big bocks.
Curt Fraser is still coaching is there any possibility he might showup in this city?

 

[Mr Base]

AV in last two for New York Ranges job. Av is simply nuts in my opinion. He should have sent five guys packing and keep AV. I would still do it.
Grets and his side kick will get top notch coach.

Canucks need a bit more of this:

 

[rich2]

and a little less of this?

 

[Regs]

If you are saying a little less of the fcuking brutal NHL officiating, then yes, I'm on board.

 

[Mr Base]

AV asst. coach got a job in Tampa Bay. Good for Rick, what better place than that to move your family to. Nice and worm.
Good place to buy a home now to spend rest of you life on a sunny side of US. Golf is good all year and cold beer tastes better.
AV might find job with Panthers . Boys will be close again. We are still holding on to see what the heck will Canucks do.
With Farm team relocation and head coach job it might take bit longer. At least they will be able to talk to LA guy soon the way it looks.
