Oh, I think we’re all there for sure. I’m just not getting my hopes up for sweeping changes just yet. -

Who has the assets, cap space and will to be buying in November? -

I said something similar when we lost to Carolina. That’s the problem with digging in with a 0-4-2 start. When we lose the ones we’re expected to lose it feels like a disaster as opposed to the usual ups and downs of a season. -

Benning’s team looked pretty good to end last season. This Rutherford team looks terrible. -

At this point we just need to ride it out. Sell hard at the deadline if it keeps up. Core piece or two + peripherals. In the offseason we’ll still have Petey-Miller-Hughes-OEL-Demko and a decent winger or two. Management can decide to rebuild (trade Demko, Pettersson, maybe even Hughes) or re-tool gunning for a 1RD and a true 3C around that group. Just so listless in losses right now it’s mind numbing. -

Slow start makes a bit more sense with Hughes, Myers and OEL all banged up to various degrees. Toss in injuries to Dermott, Poolman and Stillman. Less important but Boeser and Mikheyev also with injuries to start the year. Hopefully we’re just getting some back luck out of the way early! -
I just meant I think they don’t have to do as much when Hughes is on the ice - maybe him being out a few days will emphasize how they can help out. This has been an issue with the current Canucks for awhile though. As an aside, I did think they did a better job blocking shots and breaking up passes.
