Hotdawg Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Schneider hung out to dry first by Bieksa, then by Hanky, the third off an intight rebound. Only the third goal should have happened, and we would have won 2-1. The team was lacking passion and smartness tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpt Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I think that winning the conference should be the goal. Presidents trophy is nice for the trophy case but unless NY and Vancouver make it to the finals what is the advantage? Having home ice for the first three rounds would be huge when you consider the home vs road records of teams like Detroit and St Louis. Finally, my parting shot to the flames fans (the fan base that hates the canucks and the city of vancouver the most): enjoy your draft day BBQ. maybe next year your team will break the streak of only making it past the first round once in 23 years LOL! and iggy is a punk who cant take a hit....all smiles on camera but an absolute joker on the ice who thinks hes untouchable.

wendythirteenthrashers Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 i hope this loss is a blessing in disguise.... will end the goalie controversy and give them an angry fire in their bellies again....im sure the next practise will contain many defensive drills and hopefully some accuracy shooting..... no more lackadaisical slacking with the lead.... line 2 needs to be split apart...no one has helped with all the different tryouts....its just booth /kes that have zero chemistry these days... cant have 2 puck hogs on the same line...

WZRD Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Henrik turned the puck over twice which led to two goals. Remember before the third goal happened? Henrik has possession in the offensive zone, then he blindly throws the puck back towards the blue line and it's pretty much a 3-on-0. The resulting clusterf*ck in the defensive zone led to the goal. If Henrik is going to continue to make these blind passes, he'd better be damn sure that someone on OUR team is there. Getting real tired of him just throwing the puck around to nobody.

Hockey Coach12 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 No need to fuss over the PT. I want to get past the first round and play the Blackhawks! Will be sweet to exact revenge on them for Keith's hit on DS. They have some talent over there though, it won't be a cakewalk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuxFan09 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The loss is annoying but meaningless. If I had to pin blame somewhere, I would pick the 2nd line. The 1st line has been on fire lately and a guy who isn't even supposed to be carrying any offensive duties - Lapierre - has been majorly picking up the slack so I give them a pass. The 3rd line was again solid as it is every game and got the 2nd goal of the game. Schneider was ok - not bad, not great - but he has been playing awesome lately so he also gets a pass. The defense was the defense. At the end of the day, this was a game in which the Canucks needed the 2nd line to step up, especially when those guys - Kesler/Booth - are the most overdue for some production. However, they were invisible again. Perhaps the team's biggest concern going into the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucklehead53 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 If only our PP hadn't been so bad. Funny how if Lou was playing, and the defense/PP played this way, the loss would be weighted on his shoulders by many "Canuck fans" on this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS* Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Bandwagoneer Cory groupies don't like heir own medicine. What makes it worst is the fact that Schneider is an unproven backup with padded stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimito Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 that 3rd goal was a comedy of errors. phelgm got a 3 on 0 almost, then MAG had a chance to clear and didnt. ditto 2nd goal, blatant giveaway by hank pisspoor effort Bie looks like he is still on maintenance day, very sloppy, esp on the 1st goal, total blown coverage. gave up a odd man chances on the PP too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
