  1. Trading Tanev, and Toffoli were absolutely a huge mistake of which is going to bite the Canucks in the rear end for a few more years!
  2. You want to pout ....... get em out of here. This isn't a boys club, this is the freakin NHL!! Man up, play tough, and play as a team!! As have been the issue over the last few years the Canucks are way too soft and not the right mix of players. Ya its great to have shooters and natural goal scorers/play makers, you need to have some big solid players as well that can play tough and answer the bell as needed. Having a couple of big hitters and who play with an edge is needed to let the other players on your team be able to feel as if one of those guys will have their back when needed. You need the right mix! Canucks have alot of smaller players and other teams mostly have their way with them and know they can bounce them around at will! Gotta stop this pattern soon or nothing will ever change! Start by making Schenn or Miller the Captain!!
  3. 100% agree!! Bo is a good player but is not a guy to captain this team. Canucks need a guy with emotion, grit, and fire the guys up when needed. I would give the C to Luke Schenn or Miller! (NOW). Could we ever use Ferland now!

  5. This is canucks new addition for next season trainers for the boys 200 (1)canucksnewwomantrainer.webp
  6. I would be good with that acquisition. (Scott). **** TAKE NOTE LINDEN AND BENNING ***** YOUR WAY AND THOUGHT PROCESS IS NOT CUTTING IT.
  7. TEAM TOUGHNESS......... there is none and other teams know it! Yes, Dorsett has the heart and soul but he is NOT feared or a heavy weight by any means. We have no defenseman that have that edge and want to clear the front of the net and in fact most of them look like they are very intimidated.... IE: EDLER. Other teams players know they can just park themselves in front of our net and with no repercussions and in fact its embarrassing to watch. I think Edler is the worst, and that guy has to go. He appears to actually get out of the way of opposing players or, stand right in front of our goalie and screen the heck out of him all the time. Defenseman are supposed to clear the front of the net and cover their man and hopefully move the puck out their end and play tough and make it a miserable place to be when the opposing players get in their kitchen.All our defenseman are too polite and not punishing the opposing players plain and simple. I am not advocating goonery, just a some defense with a purpose and passion, and a willingness to play it tough both physically, and mentally. It must be a nightmare playing goal for our goalies with a defense core like we have. Our defense is way too soft and we will continue to be in trouble if its not addressed.Would loved to have a guy like big buff from the Jets but oh well. I personally believe none of our players will play to their potential until the Canucks management wise up and balance this team with players with size, and an edge, which in turn make some of are more skilled players play bigger and more comfortable. We need guys like a Lucic, Ferland, yes, Kassian etc... to balance the team out out. Hell, I would even prefer Marchand at this point(as much as I can't stand him), but I got to say that even though he is not the biggest player, the guy plays big, with heart and passion, and willing to get into the dirty areas.He doesn't shy away is more than I can say for a lot of our forwards. So, until we balance this team of ours with skill, and team toughness it will always be the same old excuses, and bull$&!# end results .I think Linden, and Benning is also to be held accountable for this un balanced sorry ass state we are in. Fire Linden and Benning, bring in Crawford to coach and light a fire and instill passion, and get rid Edler and some of our soft forwards (and we have many), and bring in some toughness!!!!
  8. the young skilled guys will excell alot quicker and play with a ton more confidence with a true heavy weight tuff guy around. Team mates play bigger and that is a fact whether you like it or not.Dorssett has the heart and soul but he is not a true heavy weight nor is Guddy.Tramkin is huge but not a scary fighter at all.Hate to say it but we need a Ferland type player.
