  1. Under AV they still worked hard and could make plays. The skill level of team was gutted by Gillis though in order to play a playoff style hockey. What Gillis seemed to overlook was that you actually have to make the playoffs in order to play playoff hockey... If Raymond and even Torres are still on this team we're a playoff team.
  2. No, that's ridiculous. It's not like they could pass because they were playing weaker teams. It's like they've forgotten all the fundamentals of hockey. It's not even just the effort level that's the problem, it's the basic stuff too.
  3. Where has our skill gone? Like seriously, players don't just forget how to pass, do they?
  4. His skating has been fine. Not sure who you're watching. Fans really over-analyze rookies too much.
  5. At least he's getting involved in the play. Burrows and Kesler have been invisible. The kids obviously nervous. I thought that about him last season when he played. Once he gets to the level that he can just relax and play, he should be fine.
  6. Not as fast, but is bigger. Better defensive play and is willing to go the front of the net more.
  7. Jensen is actually the prototypical Sedin linemate. Big body that can shoot but also get goals in front of the net. Could be good when he's ready for full time NHL duty.
  8. Cloutier never made a toe save like that.
  9. Eddie Lack - .920SV% - 2.20 GAA Roberto Luongo - .917SV% - 2.38 GAA Oh and just as I was typing that Lack made an unbelievable save!
  10. See how simple scoring is Canucks? Now do it again!
  11. Why are people saying Lu? Pretty sure Luongo has let in some ugly ones as well if I remember correctly.
  12. If he's out for awhile that could hurt Dallas' chances. Although Thomas could also get hot.
  13. Winnipeg, Phoenix, and Nashville all lose. Dallas is down 3-2. The Canucks keep getting a window to get back into it. It's up to them to take the opportunity and grab it though. Right now they look like they're ready to start shopping for new golf clubs...
  14. Have we been ragging on Lack? I think Canucks fans have been praising him quite a bit. It's our offense that deserves to be criticized.
  15. Nobody goes to the net and gets open. I've never seen a team forget how to play hockey so badly. I don't think Tortorella even practices offensive zone plays. The fact that he just showed them clips of their goals as a way to practice shows that he has no idea how to coach offense. Gulutzan needs to get replaced this summer with someone who can coach offense and the powerplay.
  16. Right cause everyone on this team is hitting the net. Oh wait... The suck is probably rubbing off on him.
  17. Wait, is that life I see?? Juice for Captain!
  18. Booth can't even hit the net. Why is he in the NHL?
  19. It freaks me out every time I see him. Amazing to believe he used to look like this:
  20. Man Hartley's a little weasel. What's the point? Let it go.
  21. After going quiet lately, Gaunce has a 4 point game for the Otters.
  22. He's the only player that played with heart every night, other than maybe Hansen.
  23. If there's one thing MacGuire knows it's prospects. If he's hyped on this guy, we should be too. People always wanna judge trades too soon. But if Markstrom and Horvat reach their potential, nobody will be looking back on these trades as bad deals.
  24. Collberg and a 2nd for Vanek is large? I wouldn't have minded that. I'm pretty sure Vanek could bury the golden opportunities Burrows and Hansen are getting.
  25. No conspiracy. I've had people do that to me and it's annoying. It's not hard to tell when people talk in the same sort of insults. If I'm wrong here, I apologize. But when two people both start to fling insults at me at once and then agree with each other, I get suspicious. Especially when I've never had conversations with them before, and there's no reason to insult me. Maybe that's just me.
