From HF Poster:
I'm pretty invested in my hockey pool so I watch a ton of other teams, every day. The entertainment value of the Canucks compared to other teams is so far and away from being similar it's just sad.
Nashville isn't even a top contender but there skill, speed and most of all their tenacity is night and day. Their forwards crash and bang, they're crowd is a ruckus bunch, great music, great energy, leading the league in fights
Other teams fight, literally, scratch and claw to win games.
Watching other teams accumulate draft picks at will while we head into another draft without a 2nd round pick.
Pettersson puts the puck in the net after the whistle and just accepts a speed-bagging from Dylan Larkin. Bo and Boeser are too quiet and monotone. Hughes is small and weak. Ekman-larsson desperately trying to own up to his massive contract and failing. No size or toughness in the forward core whatsoever. No speed. No team tenacity. Horrible arena atmosphere, horrible music. AHL defenders, no prospects, struggling rookies in the NHL, in no Man's Land looking to draft 12th-16th, mediocre AHL squad, cap strapped, extremely tough decisions ahead. "Top young players" struggling and/or injured. Basically everything is negative in my eyes right now. This team is just a bunch of scrap pieces thrown together in hopes of lucking out into an 8th playoff seed only to get dusted immediately. This team isn't any good.
