bd71 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I may get some heat for this but how much more rope is Schroeder going to get? I know everyone wants him moved up on the depth chart but he has one point and is -9 in his last ten games. -9??? Raymond has played well at Center but this team needs much more up the middle to legitimately contend. Right now the fourth line is getting scored upon almost every game while generating nothing. That isn't going to work in late April. They need that line to eat playoff minutes and not give up anything while chipping in along the way. In any playoff year you need four lines contributing but that is going to be even more important this year with the condensed schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Carell Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 The only thing that's giving me hope right now is that we're playing like LA did mid-way through last season and entering the post-season. And, well, we all know what happened once they made the playoffs. I've said it before and I'll say it again, this team just has too much talent to suck. Blame is on the COACHES. Whether it's picking people for the shootout, strategies on the PP, it has to CHANGE. I will really start crying if we don't come out of the next three games with a positive record (They play Columbus, Minnesota, then Columbus again.)

SergioMomesso Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 we were 0-5 on the PP. One with 5 min left and another in OT. Anyone who is ok with the loser point should be ashamed of themselves. We have to win these games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuretoMogilny Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Oh yeah AV, wtf? You player Shroeder with Weise when we are strapped on offence? Thats really what you want to do with the US World Junior scoring champ whos 5'5? Stick him on the 4th line to grind it out??? Oh yeah keep throwing Eddy on the ice. We want to send the right message to the team. Favorites get played regardless. Ballard, you are on thin ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksJay Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Goaltending is not the problem. Even our shaky D hasn't been costing us games for the most part. We're only playing with two effective lines right now. And our special teams are not giving us any sort of edge. Both of those things can be solved with some good coaching. Your move AV.

Steve Carell Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Umm re :#5 they were down 2-0 came back, and 100% deserved the win in regulation. i think that says something about their 'instinct' and heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THERETOOL Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Id rather come dead last than to squeak in to the playoffs and be knocked out easily in the 1st round .. the window is closing .. so make a move gillis .. wether that is a coaching change [ i wish ] or a trade , do something .. or think about starting a rebuild .. But go all in and stop hoping that this team will magically get better .. Its getting tedius now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks.rool Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Schroeder on the PP on the POINT! is AV DUMB! Garrison should be on the first unit.That's what he was signed for. He was signed to replace Salo and use his big shot! but no Schroeder is there. When is anything gonna go right for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socrates Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Forget practicing the SO.....we need practice on the PP so we don't have to get to the SO~!! Garry Valk....honorable mention to Edler for his many shots tonight.....r u kidding, right?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
406281dylan Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I liked the chemistry of the sedin burrows line the raymond hansen higgins line and the lapierre kassian booth line and ballard played amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeanBeef Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Garrison looked great, pinched at the right times and made some nice plays in his zone. Kassian and Booth showed sick chemistry tonight but struggled when stick handling. I'm pretty sure all of Barkers shots resulted in a scramble in front of the net, which shows that he knows when to shoot. Surprised that he and Ballard didn't fail in their own zone.

GoCanucksGo#1 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I have to admit Edler hasn't been playing well as of late, but he will pick it up. It's just the player he is! He is still pretty young, he will have some sort of turning point! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferlands_Head Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Canucks deserved the win, looked like men vs boys out there, Sharks got 2 fluke goals that would've never went in if Schneider was on his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilight Sparkle Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Geesh, that was one heck of a game. Down 2 goals and claw back, great pressure at times, great effort. We all got our monies worth- quit moaning !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
