Sooooo we’re firing a career .650 coach who’s been .565 since being here with a coach who’s best season ever was .530 and averages .460 win average.


This is going to go from awful to worse than that. We better get a top 3 pick out of this, but this organization doesn’t deserve it.

Tocchet just hired.

Bruce gone.

Tank strategy?

lol

You and me both. Especially the karma part. I'm not religious in the least but have seen karma in action too many times to deny it's existence.

Fuck this shit leadership group and the scummy way they conduct their business. They deserve what's coming from the fanbase, just as Bruce did last night.

Meh, there are too many poopty people out there who succeed massively, and many really great people who fail terribly, to think that karma is some level of divine intervention.

He wasn't winning hockey games, that's the bottom line, that said, this could've been handled with much more professionalism & dignity. They're a disgrace to the organization!! All of them, from the owner on down.

I hope they finish last OA and pooch the lottery.

Disgusting franchise.

Not sold on Tochett. Happy to wait and see (what else we gonna do).

I like the idea in theory of hiring two former defenceman as coaches.

Is Jason King still with the organization?!?

I don't either, I've been on the apathy train for a few years now. Now I'm at the point that the Canucks have earned their lack of success, I hope it continues to escalate.
- VanHockeyGuy

To what end? What level of carnage will satisfy? After that, then what?

50+ years of losing has a lot bitter fans. Maybe the team should move to Quebec?

I'm hoping Rutherford has a stroke while firing Boudreau.

Whatever, you have your beliefs. I have mine. Just because I feel you are mistaken, Karma is more about the energy you put out coming back, than it is about divine intervention.

Alain Vigneault was still coach of the #Canucks on this day 10 years ago. So that’s now 6 head coaches in a decade
Vigneault
Tortorella
Desjardins
Green
Boudreau
Tocchet

King & Yeo keep their jobs.

Happy Trent Cull has been shown the door...absolute disaster in Abby last year and why he was promoted to the big league this year is beyond me.

Curious to see what Foote and Gonchar bring as they played very different defensive styles but both very good d-man during their careers.

Why King and Yeo weren't shown the door is a surprise as they honestly haven't done anything to warrant maintaining employment.

Resign everyone.
Keep the core together.

Tocchet, Foote and Gonchar have 3,599 combined games of NHL playing experience. They have 8 Stanley Cup championships between them as both players and coaches. #Canucks @Sportsnet650


I think the country club is about to get their collective faces smashed in. I know people who know Tocchet and he's no pushover, he will challenge the guys individually.

I am guessing here, but Cull was potentially promoted,so they could monitor how he does, as they knew Bruce was going to be gone by at least the end of the season.

In a different 'retirement' job now with the municipality.

For 20+ years I built Fire Trucks and River Race boats. All we ever did was correct the imagineers mistakes. Good thing you spent all that cash on a 'degree' when a 5 dollar library card would have got you the same thing. Champ.

Sounds like only 1. Cull is gone. So one asst coach to come in.

Yeo is (frank)en brutal but somehow he stays. Rutherford sucks, this team sucks, owner sucks. Literally everything sucks

In the Buddhist sense of karma, it's like planting seeds. Your actions are seeds: good actions are good seeds, bad actions are bad seeds. Sometimes the seeds don't grow. Sometimes the good seeds grow and provide bad fruit, sometimes bad seeds grow and provide good fruit. But more often, the type of seed you plant bears the proper fruit.

I subscribe to that more than universe/energy.

Put the pompoms down, fanboy.
- Marwood

he's actually what the players need, to be challenged. That doesn't take away from the fact this whole thing has been a complete classless gong-show. Disgusting!!
