Yeah I just heard that, I am not surprised. They are looking for someone to blame for the canucks not making the playoffs when they should be (at least when they are on paper). However I don't think it was all his fault, the team just didn't gel this year and there definitely needs to be some changes made next year if we are to make the next years playoffs

Just saw that myself..... one of the guys at work told me so I checked out the sportsnet website.... there's talk of Crow going to the Leafs vacant coaching spot.

The question is who do they get to fill the position here!?!?!

[Lenny]

I was thinking an actor. maybe emilio estevez, charlie sheen. who's with me?

[Cdn_Brdr]

VOTE FOR PEDRO!

Saw This One Coming From A Mile Away!

[Lenny]

I was also standing exactly one mile away and totally saw the same thing coming! Curious to see what else is in the works to shake up the organization, at this point just about anything is good.

[Pennywise]

trade bertuzzi! the guy is a floating BUM!

like i said before...
so much better with the flying V.

[esoter1c]

One of the Suters please !

[FeelGood]

when in doubt, fire the headcoach.

[dave mcnasty]

I never really thought crawford was that much of a problem.....but a new coach would give the team a kickstart

i think bringing pat quinn back to vancouver would be cool

[crackdragon]

He was alright I guess, cant says as Ill miss him. It was the entire teams fault for not making it to the playoffs this yr. I think he could have done more though, to light a fire under his slumping teams ass. From my point of view he just seemed to rely way to much on a couple of players to carry the team, and when they weren't producing there wasnt enough there to pick up the slack.

[Séguin]

Now they need to get rid of Bertuzzi.

[Chewy]

was it the coach that was playing hockey.. no it wasnt

it was the team, the 25 others who played the dam game, its there fault they didnt make it.

You cant blame crawford , blame it on bertuzzi if anyone. that guy is a bum

Exactaly. He's not worth 5 Million a year! You can get like 3 or 4 good rookies and a good veteriaan for that price.

[b0ld]

ya well players are going to be traded as well... You wait and see. Given the severity of talent there is absolutely no excuses why the canucks couldn't even make the playoffs. My guess is that they are going to ditch cloutier and definantly bertuzzi next. The most iritated players on that team IMO.

put down the pipe and walk away.

[Séguin]

oh, I forgot to mention... Ruutu needs to be downsized from the entire league. He's useless.

[Chewy]

ruutu is a little rat, he used to be good a drawing penalties , now he just takes them himself. i remeber some games he was getting about 3 ina row

[dave mcnasty]

Pat Quinn is a good coach...he was just stuck with a bunch of tools in Toronto for that many years...

dont forget who brought the Canucks to the Stanley Cup Finals in 94

[Séguin]

Ya, Pat Quinn is so great. The Leafs are a bad example because their all shitty players.
What about Team Canada 2006? You can't really blame that on the players... He put players together that should have not been together.

I still think Heatley, Spezza, and Staal would have made a better first line...

Pat Quinn needs to never return to hockey, he should hang his head in shame and not come back.
Don Cherry needs to be fired from CBC too. He was a wise man of hockey, but he's lost his mind now... They should take him off the air before he embarasses himself more, and others.

[Cdn_Brdr]

I've just decided, right here and right now, that Robb Peppertree is indeed a hockey retard

I disagree on this one rob. Toronto Maple Leafs Organisations big problem was actually more to do with the GM JFJ than Quinn.

He made no changes worse than the Canucks organisation.

He kept Lindros, and Allison and old players who were for sure hit and miss this year along with Belfour sucking the big one.

but ya i am pretty sure Pat Quinn is gonna be retiring anyways. He definetly didn't need to hang his head in shame when he was coaching and GM'ing in vancouver.

The coach is always the first to go, but if things don't improve next year I am certain Nonis will be gone too.

I honestly believing losing burke killed the canucks and anyone who thinks otherwise well look at anaheim and what he has done and look at van and where we ended up at the end of the season.
