Listening to the latest Vancast with Drance and Farhan. Drance will move mountains to defend Green under any conditions. He's absolutely shameless with it.
On the one hand, he was marveling at Colorado's blue line and how effectively they move the puck while noting they aren't that talented, especially when a bum like Jack Johnson is getting 17 minutes a night. Then on the other hand, it's all roster construction for why Vancouver's defense is so bad and there's nothing Green can do.
When they talked about the possibility of Green getting fired and if someone new could light a spark in this team, Drance pivoted to "what does this say to these young players if they can play poorly and get a coach fired?"
They've played well and the team was still getting worked over the past 4+ seasons!
What Imac is to Benning, Drance is to Green.
