Neither goalies stats are very impressive.

 

Could be a long month till our only real goalie gets back.

 

Demko has totally blown his first two chances to show what he can do. Or maybe he has shown what he can do.  Either way it is very aggravating. Some of the goals demko's gives up are atrocious.

Just OK becuase the D sucked too. He is not Marky that's for sure. But he is the best nux have now. The skaters in front of him wasn't good enough and you know it.  Good teams help eachother out when one is not having a great game. 

Well, good teams also lose 9-3 too (ala Boston). Demko has to learn from this one and move on.

Knowing we’d play this way. I’d at the very least like to see more line juggling. Maybe taffoli with horvat and pearson. Virtanen back on the first line. The first line was trying to be too fancy, dangling 3/4 guys at once. They weren’t having any of that ...

Toffoli Miller Petey are not the issue...at all.

only miller, toffoli and hughes driving nuck production consistently these days

would be nice to see more balanced production from the rest of the team

Pettersson is doing his fair share as well.

 

I would really like to see Horvat start putting the guys on his back and show them he deserves that C because I cant say I've been that impressed with his play this year

Three soft goals by Demko. Yes, the team giveaways were pretty bad by everyone. But Demko absolutely had to make the 4th goal a save - and he lets in a soft one. This one was as much as Demko's loss, as it was a team loss.

That play should have been stopped to begin with as an honest ref would have called the blatant interference on EP moments before.

Need to mix up top 4 to get most out of it.

 

Edler-Tanev

Hughes-Myers.

 

We are a better team with these guys on the ice.

 

Need to play the better players more. Petey and Horvat's line like 2/3 the game.

 

Roussel does nothing so he needs to come out. Just put in Mac and hope Boeser returns soon. Bottom 6 shouldn't get much more than 1/3 of the game accumulated.

 

It's clear we need to rely on our better players more. Most of the bottom 6 is is a void of offense and are incapable of controlling play consistently. Either put Virtanen or Gaud with Bo and hope you can find an okay line with the other on the 3rd line till Boeser is back.

 

It's fine to have defensive forwards but this team has too many that are void of any offense in the bottom 6. Secondary scoring is only Gaudette and Virtanen

Pathetic. Just pathetic.

 

why does this team always need a kick in the butt to wake up?! 
 

Except you miller :wub:

Where would we be without Miller, man he drives our bus.

Demko needs to be better. Soft goals kill you, as Canucks remember with Marky circa 2017-2018

There are far too many passengers on the team. Lazy, uninspired players unwilling to play the right way. Benning has a summer ahead of him unloading the considerable dead wood this team still employs. 
 

Hopefully Green sees the situation for what it is and gives a couple of hungry young players opportunities and sits useless players like Eriksson and Roussel.

Hey man hes young. Mistakes are kind of expected. It's when their hustle isnt there you really need to worry, and he had a lot of hustle out there

there is hustling and then there is skating around out there doing not much of anything. he was bad just like the rest of the team tonight. another classic example of this canucks team that gets a big win against a top team and feels they can coast to some easy wins on garbage teams.. 

 

sadly i think we will continue to see this till we have a coach that doesnt let it happen, clearly horvat isnt leading the team away from it happening.

Demkos game wasn't a good performance but it sure wasn't a bad performance 

 

If the Canucks came to play this could have easily been a win, instead we got high risk passes, and terrible turn overs that lead to goals

And they’ll come out the same against Toronto.
