Alflives Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 3 minutes ago, 6string said: There was no effort to start the third, you're down two ffs. I thought we actually played without passion (I do think guys make effort, except Loui) the whole game. We get little sparks, but - unless we score - there is no flame. And even then any flame goes out quickly. IMO it’s a combination of older players who are just soft (that’s who they are) and a coach’s systems and philosophy that make for passive play. Our young top players are getting more and more frustrated. Now are they frustrated with the systems they have to play within? Do they have confidence in those systems? Do they have confidence in their coach? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) This is the area of the game where Boeser and Ferland thrived. Brock the beast is getting close. Hopefully Markstrom and Boeser are healthy soon, just in time for the playoffs. Edited March 9, 2020 by PhillipBlunt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) I'm still tracking this team. I check the out of town scoreboard multiple times a day, I'm here more than I probably should be, and I've watched more than I said I would. Despite all this I'm having a really hard time believing in this team. It feels like it goes back to the Boston loss, we've pissed things away these last twenty games or so. We're dependent on other teams losing and us somehow pulling things together before it's too late. With every regulation loss we get closer to it being too late. Few in the media saw us being in the mix at this point, so that in itself is a win. But it's hard for it to feel that way when we've allowed what seemed like a solid chance at a top divisional spot to slip away.

I wouldn’t count on his return this season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanfor42 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Green doesn't understand the Vancouver market. The mosr patient fans in the NHL. 50 years waiting for a cup. Twice to game 7. There is an urgency the fans feel to compete again in the playoffs. Green doesn't get this. He's too passive. His quotes: We played well. That's a good team over there. That's a big team. Sometimes you play well and lose... Cmon Green. Figure out your fanbase is wanting results not excuses. Get mad. Show anger. Show passion. Stop the passive aw shucks. It's time to make the playoffs or get fired. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainhorvat Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Demko played well enough for us to win but we still couldn’t get it done. Tough pill swallow. Looks like it’s gonna be a bumpy ride to the end but I still think we squeeze in. This would be a great time for a players only meeting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Bracket, the guy responsible for us finally having good young players/prospects (which he accomplished having limited picks, and in later rounds) is leaving. Maybe Aquilini figures out who the real star is in his management group? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Frankly, the game was a success upon the culmination of that Pettersson goal. That was incredible. He’s going to flip into Arcade mode with Hughes in the final games. Add in Boeser drop Toffoli to Horvat’s line. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that prevents Eriksson from getting even one shift of top six time will be a plus for the team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
