One thing for sure for the Calgary game tonight is that Torts will definitely try to run into the Flames locker room in order to beat up Hartley. 
Some people on this thread are saying that the players have stopped listening to Torts.
Torts said it best when the team played poorly against Florida this season: "No respect at all".
The players have lost respect for Torts after he tried going to the Flames locker room to beat up Hartley last game. Is it just coincidence that this team has gone downhill since that incident?
I also think that Torts' system of offensive and defensive play for this team is not the right fit based on our players' skillsets.
Hamhuis and other d-men looked hesitant after making reads during the Dallas game. -never seen our d-men get caught up pinching so many times with the result being a Dallas goal.
If our players need to think during a game about how to play in a certain situation because they are unsure of how to play the system or even worse, they have doubts about Torts' system, it's no wonder this team can't score goals or defend properly.
Perhaps the guys have not fully grasped Torts' system of play and also have doubts whether his system is a recipe for success.
There is plenty of blame to share among many people for the team's weaksauce season so far.
Blame Aquaman if indeed he is micromanaging the team by making decisions on trades. Blame MG for making bad trades and drafting poorly. Blame Torts for not being able to adapt his coaching system to his players' skillsets instead of coaching the same way since his days with Tampa. Blame the players for what's happening on the ice.
Plently of blame to share among the owner, management, the coaches, and the players!

Yes dont blame the fact that every team must go through a rebuild to get good again. We have the shittiest draft record yet no one talks about our scouting staff ever.

If he thinks that there are better scouts in the league, then hire them instead of keeping the weaksauce scouts we have now. Why keep them on the payroll?

I agree. Since gillis arrived, I never knew he would keep Ron delmore and the scouting staff. Thought the days if Burke and nonis he would fire them all.
Can't really blame torts, the Canucks still lost when it was Sullivan and gully coaching.
When your 1st line hasn't scored since new year. I don't care if its Scotty bowman. Your team isn't gonna win.

Posted via RS Mobile | Its a writeoff season for the first line. With that said, torts and friends are bring phased out...so let see if the Canucks get embarrassed tonight from a Flames team who has a winning mentality. Doesn't matter who bad their team is. They have that will to wanna go out there and TAKE it Posted via RS Mobile | |

Haha.......... Don Cherie giving it to Luongo for tweets.
"They treated you pretty well......... 60 mil. You're in paradise now, keep your mouth shut."
Need to see it again.
Grapes started by saying how well luigi played and showed some highlights, then got into the tweeting shit.

lawls | good, I'll set other PVR to record it.
Grapes will be on during Canucks game too? If so, want to see what else he'll say. After the team gave you 60 mil contract comment, he added that the organization also traded him to Florida, as if they did him a favour. hmmmmmm........
wow....... titanfall commercial - first time I've seen it

Good, Maple Leafs win in OT. Now we can watch the Canucks game.
What a difference. The TML bench erupted. They is a happy bunch. So jelly............ that team wants to win so much compared to our sad bunch.

Even 2 years ago, I thought it was a radical diet, that he should reconsider.
Now.. what the hell happened. Disbelief...
