La Mauviette75 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 i mean, it's possible, but i wouldn't bet on it unless the canucks get some extra pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainshane Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Did anyone think the Devils and Kings would be playing for the Stanley Cup last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Are All Cucks Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 There is at least a 1 in 30 chance we'll win. Likely higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 OP Take down the poll. Or at least change it so it isn't a yes/no question. They are good enough to win it... as are any other contending teams... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabychStache Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 It literally all hinges on Kesler. If he rounds into shape and peaks for the playoffs, yes they are good enough. If he continues to eat line mates, no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookie Wilson Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Only 1 in 30 could win. If you asked the same question about any other team, including Chicago or Boston, I would respond: "It doesn't look good for them." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoolander Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 We need another Sniper like Hossa,Semin,Seguin, etc If Kesler gets shut down, so does our entire 2nd line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xur Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 As of half way through last season, would you have thought the Kings would win the Cup? The Canucks have a better chance than most, but I certainly wouldn't wager any serious money on it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Your question is: "Will we win the Stanley Cup with this current team?" The answer to that for pretty much every team in the league should be: "No, probably not". Because it doesn't matter how good your team is, only one team will walk away the winner. Also, anything can happen, as perfectly exemplified last year. Presidents Trophy team has their top scorer injured, and goes cold, while the 8th seed goes on one of the biggest hot streaks in the history of the league. A better question would be "CAN we win...?" My answer? Hell ya! Didn't you read the last paragraph? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureNHLGm Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 No, dear reactionary CDC'er...they do not. While any team can certainly improve with a key trade here or there, they 're just fine with the personnel they have. What they need to do is simply get on their game.

Sedinry Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thats too much of an absolute statement. But this team has just as much of a chance as any other team in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 On paper they should. But the defense is playing much worse than it should on paper. Trade schneider and get a solid 1-2 dman asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollumpus Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 So as it stands right now, almost half way through the season, do you think this current team has what it takes to win the Stanley Cup? For me it's a no as it's not because of the Defense core. I mean on paper, if you can't win with the defense that Canucks have, something is very wrong. However I feel our 2nd line needs a real pure goal scorer on it and that Kesler needs to get back to using his Wingers and his Selke form, I mean how many take aways does Kesler have on the Season? Without going any further, what to do you guys think? And if yes or no, for what reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nino Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 No, I think we need to trade for a good second line center. I think our d will be fine. We don't need two great goalies in the playoffs pull the trade MG give us a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nevlach Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 We'll make the playoffs but we'll lose to either Chicago, St. Louis, Anaheim, or Detroit/LA if they make the playoffs. Hate to say it but expectations aren't high right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Meh, I said as of right now, and it's suppose to be absolute. As in, Gillis needs to change something for a change to occur, because from what I watched last season and this season nothing has changed. They have no motivation to play No...? lol Take a chill pill instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 And demote kesler to what? A five million dollar third line center? The guy just had multiple surgeries... he's one of the best all around defensive forwards in the game ffs. Smh. We need a shake up on d not center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
