Back to back President's trophy, 1 win away from winning the cup, 5 division titles in 6 years. If the Canucks are struggling 20 games into next season, then I might consider a change.

If you read a couple posts up, Gillis knows he is accountable and responsible as well.
After 6/7 years with the team though, it's not about whether or not AV is a good coach. We all know he's a good coach and he's proven that - but we still don't have a cup. He has been out coached on numerous occasions, this series being one of them. Sometimes change is good, a coach using our players with different systems may be just what we need.
