The Sedin era Canucks were a talent heavy team, and quite frankly a playoff failure (yeah ok, one SCF but also a bunch of early exits when we were the most skilled team in the league.
On the flip side a team full of goons will fail as well.
The sweet spot is somewhere in the middle, I’ve been saying this since AV and his turn the other cheek and chew some gum style of coaching and till the Canucks figure it out it’ll just be the same sh!t, another year.
