ThaBestPlaceOnEarth Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I know the sanity of our fans is, not even two dozen games and y'all are losing it already, have a little constancy will you? The only constant among us the past couple years has been to constantly be losing our ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apples Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 AV and the canucks should split apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucksfan171995 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Nas19 and others... We are 6-0-1 in our week division but 4-5-3 outside our division... So I don't see how this is good in any way besides getting seeded high (home ice). We are not falling apart but lets be real here, we have a lot of work to do.

Ugli Fruit Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Team stopped winning when Luongo stopped playing like God. A good record means nothing if most of the wins were not deserved. We are honestly in some trouble at this point. Although I think with the absence of Kesler the Schroeder line will start producing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
van_ws Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 This team has no hope of going anywhere in the playoffs with this coaching staff and lineup. If nothing significant is done, it is going to be another first or second round playoff exit. To be frank, they simply aren't that good of a team anymore. Not dominant by any means, as this is masked by the fact that they play in a very weak division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snucks Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm a little concerned.Ryan Kesler will be out again for weeks with a foot injury.Bieksa day-to-day with a groin injury.Volpatti has been snapped up by the Washington Capitals day after being put on waivers.Malhotra has been forced into early retirement.After strong start, Kassian has been put on 4th line and given less ice time. Doesn't seem happy.Schneider not too happy about having to share #1 spot and his performance is slipping.Luongo's performance might be slipping as well. Have I missed anything? All this adds up to a Canucks team that appears to be falling apart at the seams at a time when it should be getting it's sh*t together. The Playoffs are not that far away. Is team management getting sloppy? If so, who's to blame, Gillis or Vigneault? Or do you think I'm overracting and that this is nothing out of the ordinary? After all, Canucks are still in the League Top 10 despite some dismal games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snucks Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Despite Bieksa's sometimes cavalier attitude he is kind of Mr Canuck, Burrows is another one but when Kevin is down, the team looses something. Bieksa doesn't have the grit he had any more but he has some skill and is good for the team. I like it when Bieksa goes to the net or comes in late with a shot. He could be a forward, maybe better than Kessler. The team should have been rebuilt or the start of a rebuild after the Boston Stanley Cup final. Now they are older and the energy less. The management here fills its building with corporate bought seats so they are not in a hurry to rebuild. The fans keep filling the building so there is no panic, but really this team with its current group is going no where. MG and AV and his coaches need to go. They can't compete anymore with the Ducks, the Kings, the Sharks, the Blackhawk divers, Boston goons, etc. A lot of it is the coaching staff, and a phyically weak team, too small.

canucks.brad Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Jesus tits people. We're 10-5-4. That's one of our best starts to a season that I can remember. God damn do people need to calm their ****. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madeincanada Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I'm not a fan of how AV is handling Kassian right now, 6 mins on the 4th line does nothing but hurt his confidence. Gillis hasn't done anything good since our cup run. We'll make the playoffs easily since were in the weakest division ever so I doubt there will be many changes, I expect to be out in the 2nd round, if we even make it that far.

37yrsncounting Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I tell you, its the weather in Vancouver, you lose a few games, its gloomy outside and we see everything as glass half empty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningWild Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I wasn't concerned till I looked at the standings. In a few games, it will be the half way mark in the season. At this point, we can realistically evaluate the team. Minnesota is 2 pts behind Vancouver right now. Edmonton, 4 pts. (All played 19 games). How the heck did this happen? Calgary has scored the same amount of goals as Vancouver thus far. Van has a +2 differential Injuries are starting pile up. I think we'd all be advised to be a little concerned.

Master Mind Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 Both AV and MG are to blame. AV because he isn't motivating the team, hasn't made the D any better, and mismanages players. MG because he isn't improving our team (nor will he), and he just got rid of a useful player for nothing. Team might not be falling apart, but they will if nothing gets fixed.

SNACanuck Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 simple answer is NO we are not falling apart. But we do got some issues(injuries, confidence, etc). Maybe beating the Kings this Sat will help with their confidence, LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 10-5-4 is a fancy way of saying 10-9. Barely over 500. HArdly one of the Canucks best starts ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 AV is clearly mismanaging Kassian as verified by .. who was it on Sportsnet the other night during the intermission? The difference in Kassian's numbers are night and day when given fourth line minutes vs top six minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
