  1. I don't believe it has much to do with their age, this has been an ongoing problem with our powerplay. When it's hot it's hot, but more often than not we seem to be looking for the pretty play instead of making the goaltender make a save. I blame coaching.
  2. Gonna be one of those nights where we've gotta put the puck on net when we get a chance because the Avs will be busting down the ice every chance they get Avs are fast and the puck doesn't stay on one stick for too long
  3. They need to be more willing to pull the trigger That's two powerplays where we've looked good but held on to the puck too long
  4. Our powerplay is frustrating as hell but our PK has been fantastic thus far this season Big props to the guys stepping up with Beagle, Sutter and Motte out
  5. We had some good looks, it's a shame we weren't a bit more willing to put the puck on net
  6. What's your favourite positive memory related to the Canucks? It's so doom and gloom lately (yes, I contribute to that too).

      mine is also bure related

      just watching him rocket around on the ice

      like he was playing the game at a different physical level then everyone else

      and watching how the opponents reacted in a combination of fear and intimidation

      worried that he could totally embarrass them

      he had the best raw physical skills i have ever seen on the ice

       

      gretzky had the highest mastery of hockey skills

      he was able to see and do things that were completely magical

      though some of his traits are now more common in other players

      who have learned from him

      Burrows slaying the dragon, although Luongo's save on Sharp in OT while Burrows was in the penalty box was pretty spectacular. 

  7. For real though, having that center depth was huge. Having Sutter, Rouss, Beagle and Motte out really changes the dynamic of our bottom six. We're missing some swagger right now. We're missing Ferland too.
  8. For sure, he's gonna be something special as he gets older. Hell, he's pretty special now.
  9. He does, and I appreciate it. But guys get away with all the subtle things they did on the twins and it's frustrating.
  10. In that way he really does seem to be like the Sedins, guys get away with taking liberties
  11. With Sutter and Beagle out Bo's shouldering most of the defensive burden so I'd say he gets a bit of a pass
  12. Missing Sutter and Beagle too, they killed us in the dot
  13. Damn, it's like having an unreliable powerplay loses you games 0/3 killed us tonight
  14. Well that was a wasted evening What a frustrating game
