  1. Tortorella is a good coach for a team that knows how and wants to win. However he's a horrible systems coach. AV had him beat by a mile there.
  2. Does this team even wanna win? Like seriously. I've never seen a team play with such a lack of emotion.
  3. Traded a depth guy who was redundant on this team and didn't really play much of a role, for a depth D-man that can play 20 minutes a night and fill in for our decimated D-core. What's there to complain about exactly?
  4. I think it will take alot to keep Hank out of tomorrow's game. He always gets up for match ups against the Wings.
  5. Those December numbers. Two completely different teams between those two months. Lets hope the team brings more of what they did in December next month and less of what they did in January.
  6. Exactly. The struggling is going on throughout the team. Look at Kesler, Burrows, Edler, Hamhuis, and Garrison. Are all these players done too? There's something deeper going on than the Sedins just being "too old". A lack of leadership or motivation or some sort of internal struggle is throwing these guys off their games. I just hope the olympics are just what these guys need to get their passion back.
  7. Hopefully Eddie brings the spark this team needs. I think they should give him the majority of the games leading up to the olympics, and see what he can do. Let Lu rest up.
  8. Anyone still think offense is our problem? It's our D that has been the problem this whole time. These guys collapse under pressure so often.
  9. Take off ya hoser. You realize the Sedins didn't win that year too right? Fans really will whine about anything.
  10. Game will go to OT. It never fails when the Canucks play second game of the double header.
  11. Did we even have a fourth line tonight? What's the point of icing that line if they can't even play?
  12. Edler - paid 5 million to be a 40-50 point defenseman - on pace for 20 points. Garrison - paid 4.5 million to be a powerplay QB - 3rd worst powerplay in the league Hamhuis - 4.5 million to be a top shutdown D-man - being outplayed by two undrafted kids Somethings gotta give. NTC or not, one of these guys have to be asked to waive it for the better of the team. We can't afford to spend this much on D and still give up this many goals. We need offense.
  13. Edler lead all Canucks in ice time and was a -3 with 0 shots. Tell me again why this guy is our highest paid D-man.
  14. I honestly believe that this team needs Torts on their a$$es all the time or this is what happens. Their bad habits start to creep back in and they make dumb defensive plays. 3 more games till the return of Torts!
  15. The Olympic break can't come soon enough. This entire team looks worn out already. Sorry to the Sedins and Edler, but I hope Sweden is out early so they can get some rest.
  16. What are you talking about? He was dominating at the end there. Second best forward behind Schroeder tonight. It's not his fault nobody was covering him. Meanwhile Kesler, Daniel, and Burrows are doing absolutely nothing and getting top line minutes.
  17. We'll definitely take Ladd, but it won't be for one of our top prospects. Jensen, a mid level prospect and a pick is about all I'd offer.
  18. Maybe that's on you then. Throwing the name Kane out when I've done nothing to imply that he's a superstar is ridiculous. I said he had the skills to be a good NHLer. Move on.
  19. Who said amazing? He scored two greasy goals, but they're still goals. Any hockey player knows that throwing the puck towards the net is never a bad play. So far he's done what Burrows has failed to do in 20 games twice tonight. I would say that's a pretty good first game back. Why can't fans just support the guy instead of whining about them being lucky.
  20. Yea it really is pointless isn't it. Bottom line is Schroeder has two. Haters are mad calling it lucky cause they called him a bust..
  21. And how did I make it seem like I was calling him Kane? Don't insult reading skills when you struggle yourself. Jumping to the conclusion that I'm calling him Kane based on saying that he knows how to score is quite the jump.
  22. Yes meaning they don't have to be pretty. How many goals do Burrows and Daniel have in their last 12 games again?
  23. Show me one quote where I said he was Kane. All I've said was that he's good enough to play in the NHL, and fans that call him too small or a bust don't know what they're talking about.
  24. Nope, he's definitely not helping a team that can't score goals... Keep running your mouth guys.
