PeZzy Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Why aren't the Canucks scoring? Does it make you scratch your head? It shouldn't. Just look at all the past Stanley Cup winners. Most of them had a bonifide offensive defenseman. What are the Canucks missing this season? You guessed it. It turns out Errorhoff was actually worth $40 million. Edler was able to fake being an offensive defensemen for awhile but then reality set in and he became average, making the Canucks and their PP average. Yes...a single offensive defenseman means that much to a team. The previous season the Canucks were a fun-to-watch offensive team. This season they managed to squeak out one goal victories. Offense begins on the backend. If your defense isn't moving the puck forward, then they are making your forwards backpeddle and backcheck. This is what we saw this season. Unfortunately there appears to be no offensive defensemen available during the off-season. The Canucks will continue to decline until they manage to find one.
