  1. And Green will bench him for not following the team's offensive protocol.
  2. A top 6 forward can hit the net at least once in a blue moon.
  3. It's either getting stuck in our zone or icing the puck. Rinse, repeat, recycle.
  4. It'll take a lot less time to count things this team (sometimes) can do than what they can't.
  5. Boeser has been losing the puck a lot on his stick recently. When he doesn't shoot of course.
  6. As usual for Canucks game, they're always second to any loose puck.
  7. Canucks' traditional ever-backing-off, soft-as-tofu zone entry defence is showing early.
  8. Wonder how many ~ 2 minute defensive zone shifts we'll have in this game?
  9. Hey be careful... She'll ask you to do another round of boxing practice.
  10. A part of the reason they kept turning the puck over and getting hemmed in the dzone was they still tried to play cute when they shouldn't have. No-look behind the back passes on pp when they couldn't even string 2 normal tape-to-tape passes together; On those rare occasions when we finally carried the puck into o-zone, casual no-look puck dumping to behind the Sens' net where there's no Canuck anywhere near; Trying to pass the puck through 2-3 Sens players' legs in the neutral zone only to turn it into odd men rushes against us. They should take a good look at their lineups at this point and realize it's not the last year's playoff team. What they have now is a ragtag group of a few elite players + aging vets + fringe players from their farm team + waiver wire pickups. Just play simpler north-south game. Get the puck out of dzone, carry the puck over to ozone and give puck support. Put the puck on net and drive to the crease. That's the only chance we got.
  11. I don't think there can be any main event left to play afterwards.
  12. He is like an NHL version of Michael Jordan in the 90s: so fast & breathtaking with the puck, even more amazing moves putting it in the net. I know we had one just like him back in the day... Maybe McJesus should stick his tongue out whenever he scores a goal.
  13. Never question Baumgartner's brilliant dmen deployment strategy
  14. Harder than the other team who's supposed to take every game as a must-win game, for sure.
  15. Demko is day to day, and Petey might return at some point if we do make the postseason. But yeah, it still won't be enough.
  16. We have to win 10 of the next 14 games to have a sniffing chance at the playoffs. As much as I love to see that, I know I won't see that.
  17. Other than Juolevi goal, this game was a total disaster for literally every Canuck skater. Couldn't get the puck out, couldn't win one board battle, couldn't make a crisp pass, and no urgency whatsoever when the team needed push for a tying goal in the 3rd. If they said they now treat every game as a must-win game, this one certainly didn't qualify.
  18. All sens have to do is move the puck around the boards and we won't sniff at the puck.
  19. Sens take less than 2 seconds to move out with the puck from their D-zone. We take ~ 2 minutes to play headless chicken in our own zone before taking a dumb penalty.
