  1. 6-1 Canucks Panthers goalie makes the most saves as our boys badly outshoot the opposition.
  2. Just a 1000% reduction. He'll probably barely even notice the after tax difference on his paycheque.
  3. I hear Justin Trudeau might be in attendance along with his plane full of costumes. Bollywood_Dance_Mr_Justin_Trudeau_s_Dance_in_Indian_Color_Etc_ICAM_by_GKBmedia.mp4
  4. I thought the same thing about my username..... Obviously it's Jan Bulis.
  5. Nuck's 3-2 Marky shuts the door on the Great 8. Canucks win the Cup. Horvat is MVP.
  6. They need to start playing like the NYR did in the 3rd period last game.
  7. Nuck's 4-1 Pettersson (PP) Boeser (PP) Hughes (PP) Horvat Newell Brown +1,000
  8. Last year's PP was converting at a 17.7% clip, which was 24th in the league. The only team with a worse conversion rate than that that actually made the playoffs was Nashville. Special teams are IMPORTANT. Right now we're at 12.6%. I would give it until the 20 game mark. If we can't claw our way above 20% by then drastic measures will need to be taken because statistically if we don't get into the 20% range we won't make the playoffs. With all the talent we have, the solid D core this year, and the phenomenal goal tending I would rather not write off yet another season. Sometimes you just have to shake things up, get some new blood in there, a fresh pair of eyes. Yes, it's only 8 games into the season and yes we just had a 4 game winning streak but we're only 5-3-0. I would hardly call that a winning team at this point. If we are at or around .500 by game 20 and the power play is still one of the worst in the league then Newell Brown should go. Period. IMHO OFC 
  9. If he comes back he should take Lievos spot on Horvats line. That is where he belongs. Lievo belongs in the AHL.
  10. I would switch Lievo and Baertchi in a heartbeat. Lievo has been an AHL guy or a healthy scratch his whole career (since 2013) prior to joining the Canucks. He sure as hell doesn't belong on the PP. His 10 goals last year was a career high as was his 49 games played. Goldy doesn't belong on the roster either. He has proven time and time again that he is incapable of playing defense or winning a puck battle on the forecheck. If I was JB I would try to move him for another Roussel type of player. Someone who can play on a physical edge and still pot a few goals every now and again. Those are the types of players we are going to need in the playoffs. The skill guys we have already are way better than Goldy so he's not going to make top six and he doesn't belong in the bottom six.
  11. Special teams are the difference makers in hockey games. When teams are evenly matched 5v5 a dominant PP can be the difference between a win and a loss. The current PP is ineffective and the success rate is unacceptable. There is no time to "wait and see", if we continue at this pace we won't make the playoffs. I don't know about you but I would much rather figure it out now and make the playoffs than "let it play out" and make coaching changes in the off season after we miss the big show again.
  12. Sutter: What do you and Erickson talk about? Edler: Oh you know, Swedish things. Ikea, meatballs, Swedish Fish. Lol! Edler that was hilarious!
  13. I have this empty cereal box stowed away somewhere at my parents house. I wonder if it's worth anything yet? Maybe I should take it to Rick from Pawn Stars to find out, lol.
  14. Hell yeah! This is the response I wanna see immediately following a shutout loss. The Canucks have been all over them since the opening face off. Keep it up boys!
  15. Did you see Green's post game interview? Regarding the power play he basically said; "it was good, we had some good looks, the only thing lacking was a goal". Are you *&$%&#@ kidding me?!
  16. Yeah, I noticed him playing with Horvat in the 3rd. Did he get bumped up the line up or something?
  17. It's happened to me too. I figured out if you click on "select other media" the text box will pop up.
  18. All the pieces are there, we just gotta do something about that power play! It's atrocious.
