Not even Sutherland’s fault, its his linesman that are having a shocker. The second goal was icing ignored for reasons. 

He saw a clear hold and chose to ignore it.  Not given a problem official with a history of rigging our games any benefit of the doubt.  The league should know better than to allow this criminal to work any of our games.

Let's be honest here.  First goal looked like the last goal.  Massive defensive failure.  Half coverage or no coverage at all.

 

Then our offensive zone play.  it's almost the exact same thing.  Columbus is employing a standard defense of 2-1-2 or being 2 forwards near the hashmarks, 2 defensemen on the boards and 1 forward directly in front of the blue paint.  They pick off every cross ice pass or manage to stick every puck going by.  It's almost sad how predictable it is.  

 

This is literally down to coaching, or an inability to change your game plan mid game.

 

What can you do?  We're kind of out of people to blame

They scored the first goal cause Louie wasn't on the ice.

We have to be the worst in the league at exiting the D zone.  Takes so much expended effort, sometimes ending up passing directly back to them, and having to recover the puck again.   At their end they only allow us one chance, and exit quick and efficiently for the most part.  Do they even practice that aspect of the game? Because many times they look lost in their own zone wondering what to do.

No goalie is stopping that one...

 

We should probably be in a better spot than we are, but at the same time coulda / woulda / shoulda. 

 

Gotta take the positive that we've probably been the better team, then make the adjustment; getting more pucks on net. 

Problem is we arent the better team on the score board.

Sutherland isn't leaving guys wide open in our defensive zone.. 

Not saying we're playing well, but allowing a guy with Sutherland's history to officiate Canucks games is a red flag that the game isn't going to be called honestly.

Hate to say it - but the captain has been brutal. 

Frustrating to watch.  Too many fn attempts to be 'pretty'  - no look passes, back passes, fancy crap that is failing endlessly.

Get back to your game - a power forward game - and cut the outsmarting yourself.

Team's falling down all over, and that last minute goal is a game breaker.

 

Demko's looked pretty good, but with that being said, this team has no killer instinct at all.

If they need a goalie better than demko has been tonight in order to win, they deserve to lose.
