  1. lol at what point is it " it's not you, it's me" where it's not Canucks playing well it's Smith and Oilers absolutely sucking
  2. To be honest thats a no excuse goal, you bet the coach will call him out for that.. in modern NHL no goalie gives up goals that bad
  3. Guys you can't expect a 4 mill goalie to "steal games" Holtby is a technical goalie who excels under a defensive system. Technical goalies truly shine under specific systems. A "hero" goalie is the type that can play lights out but then falters another game. I rather have a 3 or 4 goals against goalie and not a shut out goalie one game and 7 goals against. Also hero goalies cost a lot more than 4 million Canucks are paying Holtby you get what you pay for.
  4. EP misses a lot over the net because he keeps aiming for top right corner its his one gimmick so if he tries it enough each game some will go in
  5. I am amazed people who pay the bills of these players, true fans who sponsor the team are so lenient and supportive of poor performances. If you were a boss and your employees kept underpeforming you would fire them change it up .. why are fans so soft
  6. Many people believe the answer is resoundingly YES. I pulled a few recent articles including: Karlsson contract single handedly ruined Sharks season And this delicious quote from a Toronto paper: Catastrophe in Buffalo "Thirteen games in, Jack Eichel has scored twice. Taylor Hall has scored once. And Jeff Skinner hasn’t scored at all. Combined, a high-paid trio that is earning $27-million this year has one even-strength goal and nine even-strength points. Skinner, who’s $9-million cap hit makes him the highest-paid fourth-line forward in the NHL, hasn’t scored in almost 12 months." ____ It's for these types of reasons why so many and I mean many people in Vancouver are on Bennings case about poor contracts. Just one bad contract can absolutely crush a team, no joke. Yet Canucks have several, it's incredible they are where they are in the standings considering how bad their contract managment has been. Cautionary tale here for EP and QH contracts coming up, they can make or break a team just 2 guys is enough to completely tank a team as shown. Thoughts are welcomed.
  7. Its hard to cheer and support today's game.. guys making fancy passes ALL ALLLLLLLL period long without shooting what
  8. Canucks will be 2-1-1 with a huge momentum building game including a stud performance by Holtby
  9. Rudy said its as simple hockey as it gets if i didn't know better he almost sounded disappointed by the Flames.. but its a national broadcast so he can't show any bias or he will get canned correct?
  10. Man when that first line is on they look unstoppable.. Calgary you can't give up chances like this
  11. Marky wow come on guys are you not seeing Marky swimming around out there? Soo shaky
