Was a tough game to watch last night. Also forced to listen to Chris Cuthbert from TSN was simply painful. He hates the canucks and its evident in everything he verbalizes.

Luongo was our best player all night. Hopefully a bit of a rest will help them against Colorado.

Well since AV never appointed a clear cut number 1 for the team.. the goalie that plays great should keep playing till he has a avg or poor game. Schneider with the exception of the 2nd anaheim game have been pretty average/below avg this season.. if every point counts.. just plays whoever's playing better atm

It's pretty sad to see a couple very young players and a "backup" goalie leading this team right now.

And Edler's losing me, I used to be a huge fan, and now all I seem to be doing is sighing at his mistakes. (Along with the other defencemen's)

So Luongo is calm. Bieksa is calm. Edler is calm. There in lies part of the problem. They are too relaxed for a 40 game schedule. Luongo needs to hack those guys so they stop bowling him over, or having his own players shove guys on top of him into the net. Of course if you are a puck watching D man then Luongo either gets scored on or falls into his net pushed by someone. Where is the coach? Do they have a coach? It sure looks like a rudderless ship out there and it shouldn't be.

Team still trying to get into game shape. The positives -Kassian continues to show that he is a good fit with the Sedins; Schroeder is an NHL player (even when playing against the biggest teams); Bieksa looked really good; Burrows is improving (don't even mention that ??? shootout), Higgins is on the verge of scoring a goal and Hansen looks better than last year.

They have one more game before facing a hot Chicago team and then four easier games. By the time they play St.Louis, they should be playing well (still without a 2nd line though). They need to win ALL the games against the lesser teams while they're waiting for a SCF second line.

The biggest concern for me, right now, is Garrison. So far he's been a train wreck and not nearly the player he was made out to be. Though he's playing on the second pairing, he's at the bottom of the depth list for starting dmen.......by a long shot. That said, I am chalking it up to new team, new partner (who is also playing terribly) and the pressure of playing in front of the hometown

LA is such a bunch of chumps. Look at Doughty diving like a bitch...if a Canuck falls anywhere on the ice it's diving but these guys get a free pass somehow. And Kopitar. And the worst of all, Brown. Not to mention throwing hits on icing and getting away with it a couple times, then whining like little kids when they finally get called on it. And flopping on top of the goalie, it's gonna burn you eventually, you have no right to complain. They get away with so much, nobody calls them on their BS. I'd say teams like SJ and LA get called out for about 30, 40 percent of the crap they pull where we get called out for about 200%.
