So what about the TNT contract? They can fire BB properly instead of this clown show (he is obviously getting fired no matter what, it's a fait accompli). Then, let Yeo hold down the fort for a couple weeks.
What's happening now is pathetic and embarrassing.
Exactly. The TNT thing is not a reason. I'm sure there are countless examples of a team not being able to hire a guy they want when they want so they carry on business as usual until then, whether they keep their current guy, hire an interim coach or whatever.
This is something else completely. I don't know what, but it's not normal. It's cruel.

Good for fans supporting him through this shit show.
It’s reached put Vancouver on your no trade list and don’t consider taking a job there territory the way this has been handled.

One of the worst ownership groups in the league, if not the worst. Clown show.

Bruce Boudreau Gets One Last 'Bruce There It Is' from Canucks Fans
In the midst of a stressful period in which his job is likely to be terminated any day now, Bruce Boudreau still has the support of the fanbase. Which - frankly - is awesome, as he is one of the NHL's Good Guys.

Good job Nuck fans and players. Good job Bruce for holding it together.
This team was terribly constructed by management, current and previous.
JR and Ownership can go eff themselves. I would hate to work for them.

Poor Boudreau. Doesn't deserve this bush league garbage by their management.

No coach deserves this level of dysfunction from management. I honestly hope every coach that is interviewed for this job, turns it down. There's no way that they can trust Rutheford to either have their back, or do the right thing with the roster decisions that need to be made.
Then why play this charade? Why drag everyone in the organization through the mud. I hope Tocchet realizes just how bad a situation this and it could cost him any future coaching gigs.

Fans want them to tank and it is clear it is what they are doing by creating this circus like distracting and demoralizing atmosphere. It's a pretty shitty way to do it, especially the attitude towards Boudreau. Rather they just trade away Horvat, Kuzmenko, Schenn and put a few guys on waivers. But we're getting what we want. I wouldn't be surprised if this team finishes dead last at this rate.

The only reason would be that they don't want to pay the extra 500k to 1m prorated during that time for Yeo to be head coach, and they hoped it would not leak.
They failed.
Agreed. I've given a lot of s*** to Nuk fans but this is a despicable ownership and it's nice to see the fans know exactly what's up. Too bad there remain too many institutional clients, i.e. law firms and accounting firms, that keep buying season tickets lol. The only way to get rid of aquilini is to cause him financial pain. Shame clearly doesn't work.
Agreed. No doubt Tocchet wants to get another coaching gig. He wants to stay relevant. But what exactly do you expect to accomplish here, really? Plus the fans have been driven to loyalty for Boudreau not so much out of good results, but out of an aligned dislike of ownership and management. Talk about a difficult room to walk into...
If I were Bruce, I would resign. I know he gets the laugh when he collects his money while home enjoying himself but the way they’re dragging him through this is ridiculous. I’d love to see them scramble a little without a HC, albeit briefly. It’s so disgraceful and disrespectful and I’d love to see someone stick it to him.
The entire coaching staff should show solidarity and walk together. It’s very likely 2 or more will get let go when the coaching change anyways. Tocchet is likely bringing his assistants on board too or at least, it’s rumoured he will.

Good external coaches rarely are available midseason. Usually want to come into training camp and have time to work to establish everything how they want their team to play like and build up a good working relationship with the players and other staff you don't bring in yourself . Not to mention how much of the mess the Canucks currently are. I don't think there's a single high profile coach that would take over this team right now . The way this plays out you get to take over an incredibly demoralized team. Players aren't robots . They see whats going on. Not to mention how much of a shit job Canucks front office and ownership are doing . This turns people off.
