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.

I don't like him either, but we're not the only team that's gotta deal with $&!#ty reffing. We're supposed to overcome that sort of thing, or at least try to. We've rolled over in the defensive zone and put nothing in the net.

 

Every loss makes the playoffs less likely and we certainly haven't looked urgent out there tonight.

We have no players taking it to the net either. Where is our captain? Your season is on the line here and you are a no show.

As always, the captain is too busy focusing on being good on faceoffs and his defensive game.  No one should blame him for doing nothing offensively...

Got to load up the top 2 lines now. That really just means removing Eriksson from from Bo's line.

 

Gaudette is too weak defensively right now to be a center. I'm surprised he's still being played there. 

 

If we're going to have a shutdown line then let's get Eriksson Sutter Virtanen together.

 

Move Gaudette to Bo's wing.

At the game and so far the most exciting thing that happened is some guys had their beer on the dasher row one and the host told them to take it off but they didn’t. They were gone during the first intermission and then Edler hit someone against the boards and their beer spilled.

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.

Edler, Tanev and Myers move slower than a slug when moving the puck out of D zone. Sometimes they just take their sweet time looking for options and surrender the puck even if not pressured. Only guy on D that thinks on the dime is Hughes. I hope they completely revamp the D this summer. I would even trade Edler and Tanev just to promote within. Rafferty, Tryamkin and Joulevi need to make the team.

Just a warning to those who think the early return of Boeser is the holy grail this team needs.....get ready for more disapointment. 

It'll start when Macewan gets sent down over Eriksson lol.

Still, maybe Benning should be making it very clear to the league that Sutherland should never be allowed to officiate any of his games.  It's time we put our foot down and forced the league to hold this crook accountable.

Gotta give CBJ some credit on the defensive side, they've limited our space to shoot.

 

But when they do get the Jackets running around they are still trying to find the perfect shot.

 

This is gut check time. Win or lose lets see what we're made of here. 

No goal vs a tried and injured team, you still need more time to see what they are made of?
