Tystick Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 If we could play with that type of urgency as soon as the 2nd period, we'd have a fighting chance.The one thing we can take solace in is that every game we have played so far has been within our reach.We just need to get back to how we were earlier. If we can play hard for a full 60, I'd be ecstatic. But really we just need to pick it up sooner than the last 10 minutes of the 3rd. This sucks right now, but I'd rather have this slump now than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Kids had a bad night minus McCann.Vrbata needs to be moved as soon as the right opportunity arises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 This game was about as much fun as trudging through rabbit crap in clogs in a soggy oat field in the rain. I did that right before the game...it was more fulfilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JV77 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Defense needs a complete overhaul. We must have one of the worst defense corps in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-SN- Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Refs need to stop deciding games. Canucks need to get more scoring in their lineup. Maybe Vrbata needs to be moved.Vrbata has very little value right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Problems - young kids on the same line have no guidance and can't do anything together, they just look bad out there + two offensive defencemen on the same pairing looks pretty but compounds problems in the defensive zone.Solution - This lineup for the next game: Sedin - Sedin - Hansen (the only good line we have so far)Shinkaruk - Horvat - Burrows (Burr is the veteran, Shinkaruk brings skill, Horvat brings size)Baertschi - McCann - Vbrata (as above, veterans and rookies together works better and this line has been alright at times)Higgins - Cracknell - Dorsett (a true 4th line) Edler - Tanev (not much we can change here)Hutton - Hamhuis (I'd really like to see this tried out)Bartkowski - Weber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo2337 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 We played like trash and turned it over all game. Good effort in the final two minutes once the game was over. I'll admit the refs looked once sided, but maybe we deserved it. Either that or Gary told them to be careful and punish the team instead of Burrows.It has become very clear that we must look at acquiring some decent depth on D (probably by giving up forward depth). Hutton was a nice surprise, but not nearly enough to get us by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LM11 Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 The amount of times the defense turned the puck over was astonishing. It made me wish Sbisa was actually playing instead. Forget every other mistakes and focus on the defense. They just crapped the bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Higgins, Dorsett, Burrows - InvisibleCracknell - turning into a finese player, needs to go back to the AWD shortening the bench...........against the LEAFS FFS. what a terrible game.

Tystick Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 By the way, I think that last TO goal should have been disallowed. Had the skate not been there, Miller could have knocked the puck out of the way. Instead, it just slid slowly right to Lupul.Either way, poor effort from everyone. Deserved to lose.Agreed.I'm really getting sick of the double standards.If a player is impeding the goalie's path to making the save, attempting to make the save, or at the very least in his blue crease, how in the hell is that a good goal?Makes zero sense to me.

Canucks Curse Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 Maybe aquilini doesn't watch the games but any idiot could see it is time to actually go full rebuild. These are the real Canucks that we are seeeing, that team that started 3-0-1 was a flash in the pan. We make bad goalies look all world. One of the worst d corps in the nhl. Rebuild.Edler + Hansen for Duchenne and 2ndhamhuis + Vrbata+ Jensen for theadore and Nattinen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
