The Bell/TSN radio station that got shut down unexpected early this week.
Vancouver had 2 sports radio stations, a Rogers Sportsnet one and a Bell TSN one.
1040 was way better and now it's gone.
Do you honestly think Ward is coaching “skate slow, miss passes and skate into coverage so you have to dump”?
If anything their problem was that the forwards were not skating out with the D - they were not in good pass receipt positions and the D were required to chip out.
Because of the breakout. It is the same every time, and the Nucks are sitting on it.
The winger can't skate it out if the defenseman is on top of him before the puck even arrives.
That happened at least half a dozen times in the first.

I think they are coached to not move the puck quicky up ice with a stretch pass which could result in a turnover or icing, and to instead pass D to D and wait for the players to get set and then move the puck. This makes the team look slow and gives the defense a chance to get set.
It's exactly what Gulutzan preached and it was terrible to watch and not winning hockey.

what is going on? Are they talking about someone's local radio station going under on a national broadcast?
It's pretty big news across the country this week, I think Winnipeg also had oen shut down. They even mentioned how competition is good. I didn't have a problem with it.
