Marc CrawFIRED
 

The Vancouver Canucks have called a news conference for 6:30pm et/3:30pm pt where they are expected to announce the firing of head coach Marc Crawford, according to Mojo Radio in Vancouver


Quinn coming home?

the Canucks are fucking horrid,

my most hated Canadian team, i love how people were saying with Bertuzzi they were gonna win the cup.

what happened to making the playoffs first?

Horrid? Far from.. they missed the playoffs sure, but that is what they need in order to bring it home next year. I also don't call missing the playoffs by a game 'horrid'

I thought it was possible to see an Ottawa vs Vancouver final, but the Canucks fell flat on their face. They're a better team than they showed, but they need a big league goalie, and the loss of Jovanovski hurt big time.

It looks like they'll push to sign Bertuzzi, because if the Canucks wanted Bertuzzi back, Crawford had to go...at least from what I've heard.

Sheeeet for reals? I thought the rumour was he was staying.... they should of fired his ass down the stretch... good coach but he's been here far to long.

who are they looking to replace him with?

Ottawa isn't looking so hot without hasek them selves.. and I really don't think that the goalie situation is the main problem. I think it was lack of production from the big line, and the lack of ice time for the sedins+carter.

Bertuzzi is signed for another couple of years already... and yeah it does look like they'll be keeping him. Thank god!

Thank God. His management of the team was suspect at best.

I hope Quinn comes home. Or make a strong push for Brent Sutter. Though I hear the Isles have him pegged to be their next GM

missing the playoffs by one game makes it that much worse

I would not be surprised to see that Quinn would be the next coach.

It all went down hill once they fired Brian Burke

Too bad they didn't can the entire coaching staff. They need a clean, fresh start

that doesn't mean anything to me. Awesome thread!

I would like to see Quinn back..the Cannots need a major overhaul.The coach always takes the blame

I concur.

I wonder who they're going to hire to replace him
