Horvat we really really need him.

Horvat doesn't play goal. This game was lost by Nilson with two incredibly soft goals out of the first three against a team where we needed a huge effort from him.  This is not acceptable. Is it time for Demko yet?  Bring him up, give him the reigns for the rest of the year.  Waive Nilsson down to Utica, and go from There.  Back to back horrible games by our goalies, wow! Also, Bo doesn't play defense, that MDZ - Pouliot pairing was an adventure.  I think MDZ needs to sit when Guddy returns.  And for all you, "We need Goldie because he can score" fans, now we know why Goldie has been sitting, he was -4 playing with the two best defensive forwards on the team, he is HORRIBLE in his own zone!  Green said to the media that he and Goldie a different idea what work ethic is, so Goldie hasn't learned.  Send Goldie back to the farm and bring up some bangers. I've felt pretty good about the team this year, they've been entertaining, but you can't take away what have become our new Hank, Danny, Kessler, and Bieksa and expect to win games against good teams.  Time to shift to a trapping style, bring up some bangers and play for 2-1, games until the injured return.

Lol are you serious? Emelin has thrown many dirty hits in his career and when Jake throws a good clean hit you guys overreact. 

Overreact really,you really think the players stop and think about the reaction after a hit,whether it's clean or dirty,next time the preds will just sit back and let jake dish out his hits

I think the pollution levels in LA are having a detrimental effect on IQ.

PK gotta learn when to shut his mouth. Last year in the playoffs it was his BS with bad breaths and Listerine that got Crosby turn up his game and start playing like Crosby in the final and arguably play a role in the Preds eventually losing the cup. He should learn from his lessons.

Really getting tired of the chickensh*t biased reffing the Canucks are getting game in and game out.  <_<

 

Yeah Virtanen maybe hit a micro-second late, but it was clear his stick rode up accidentally.

 

Then he gets jumped by Subban and the whole of the rest of the team... and ends up with more penalty minutes?????

 

WTF????

 

Yes it was late in the game, yes the Canucks were losing, but nothing Virtanen did deserved the minutes he got.   Just more anti-Canuck cr*p.

About the game:

 

Well, Nilsson has been a pretty good backup up to this point, but tonight he really stunk up the joint.  Yeah the shots were wonky and there were lots of deflections... but his positioning and general readiness were just not up to what is required.  Not a NHL calibre performance.... hopefully he doesn't let this destroy his confidence.  But still, maybe time to think about giving Demko a few starts as a backup.

 

Otherwise it was the same old story... with our two best faceoff and defensive centers out, this team is not up to the task.  Plus not enough firepower and having the Sedins as the first line will not win games.

 

Hopefully Canucks don't have too many more of these embarrassments... don't want a negative culture forming.

and you are blaming Nilsson ?

Both of Subban's goals were soft as butter.  He basically threw that shot from center ice into his net.  Once the team was down 3-0, the wind was out of the sails.  Even if he JUST stops Subban's second goal, and the Canucks score to make it 2-1 it's a different story, but really both of those Subban goals need to be saved.
