  1. Hoglander works hard and has wheels but he is not in control. Not sure if he has the ability to process the game and make the hand eye passes and shots and moves at high speed to be an effective top 6 player. If not he won't make it in the long run. Is he capable of becoming as good as Cole Caufield or is he Jordan Schroeder?
  2. Any team that gives up goals on 50% of their penalty kills will be at the bottom of the league. Really this isn't rocket science.
  3. Rourke is expected to play in WPG on the 28th. . Probably share the game with Adams. Told ya @smithers joe
  4. Partner you are missing the point. The point is having a poll about whether you support a rebuild is not useful unless you define what a rebuild entails.
  5. The poll needs to say rebuild is: trade Hughes Petey and Demko. Retool is: trade several other players but not those three. Then vote. If you don't say that the poll is like asking what do you think of the wind? ie. USELESS.
  6. No the team is already making money. $22.50 for draft beer, $11.50 for canned beer and $15.50 for hotdogs is just adding to the corporate profits.
  7. By the way fans who watch on tv need to hear this. If you go to the game live two large IPA drafts with no food cost $45 tonight. (That is $22.50 each). Canned beer is $11.50 each. Yes the same cans that cost $1.50 to $2.00 at the liquor store. Two footlong bbq hotdogs were $31. Yes hot dogs. It is not fun watching your team lose while Aqualini picks your frickin' pocket. Awful corporate greed at work here fans. Yuck. That is another reason why people booed this team. We are getting ripped off in more ways than one.
  8. Horvat was a no show tonight. Sitting at the game live waiting for him to do something, anything. Nope. The guy was a passenger on a winless team in its home opener when he is...wait for it...the CAPTAIN. Sick of him. Seriously. I want a captain who will put it all on the line - not a passenger who makes excuses after the loss.
  9. Deniro I agree with you - as I often do. As a season ticket holder I went tonight. The pregame show was really great. The crowd was into the game and was ready to cheer for the team until they let everyone down again. The booing was necessary. The team needs to hear it. They are a lousy team who thinks they are ok by simply saying "that's on us" or "that's unnacceptable" or "we got to do better". Nope they are lousy and need to hear the boos before anything is gonna change.
  10. We all watch games on tv. I also have season tickets and go to the games and have done so for many years. Watching live gives you a perspective you don't get on tv. You maybe don't get out to see them live so maybe you don't understand that. I think you don't live in Vancouver so it's probably very rare you actually see them live. If you like I can tell you what you see live that you don't see on tv. I think a lot of fans from Vancouver know that but since you are not from here you maybe don't know.
  11. I assume you watched on tv. I was at the game. Boeser was awful. He is slow and lazy. He has lost what he had a couple years ago. I don't know if he is disinterested or what but he is a liability on the ice for the Canucks - and I like the kid. Sorry to say but he needs to improve massively or he needs to go.
  12. Were you at the game? I was there. They did not play well in the 1st they went down 2 to 0. They were decent in the 2nd then terrible in the 3rd. All in all they were terrible and it was awful to be there live watching them lose their 6th game in a row. Time to stop making excuses or not? You can keep hoping. When you watch them live you can see this team has problems. They are not big nor fast nor tough and they have several key passengers like Miller Boeser Horvat Mikhaev. Their defense is sub par and Demko has eaten too many donuts in the summer. Right now this is a bottom team. And they are playing like it. Go watch them live partner - you will see what I am talking about. This team has talent on paper but there is a problem. And they are lousy on the ice. Buffalo was way better.
  13. Was at the game and Petey was the only Canuck centre who played well.
  14. I was at the game tonight as I have season tickets - unfortunately. Ok here is the report. This is a lousy team. No sugar coating, This is a lousy team. Right now of our vaunted 3 centres only Petey is any good. Miller is awful and Horvat is disinterested. Mikhaev is terrible. Boeser is terrible. Demko is lousy right now. I believe in him but he looks like he ate donuts all summer. Our defense is sub par - but big surprise it is our underperforming overpaid forwards that are killing this team. This could be a team that finishes last in the league (as they are right now). Don't be shocked if they finish well under last year's point total.
  15. Canucks are officially a laughing stock. I am going to the home opener on Saturday. And stupidly renewed seasons tickets. Wish I didn't as this team does not deserve support. They are laughable. Sad to say as I have supported them since the beginning but this is simply embarassing and garbage and fans need to call them out now. Enough terrible collapses. Enough losing. Enough. Time to call them out for being this pathetic and time to stop supporting losers. I never talk this way but I have had enough.
  16. You don't get it. You are posting for your own ego and the rest of us think it stinks.
  17. Canucks will beat the Wild and the Sabres and will be 2 -3 -1 shortly. Chatter will then quiet down.
  18. Let me be clear. I think your annually trying to be the first to call out the fact that the team is a loser and is out of the playoffs is offside. I think anybody who wants to make a name for themselves by doing that is a loser. I think the fact that you make a habit of doing it every year in order to feed your ego is obnoxious. There you go partner. Hope that is clear so you don't need to wonder about it. When you going to do it this year buddy? Huh? When you going to post your Canucks are out of it post in order to make yourself feel like a winner? Before 10 games?
  19. I presume that this is the prelude to your annual "the Canucks are already mathematically eliminated from the postseason" post. C'mon Partner. Put that post out there before we are 10 games in. I dare you. Make you look like a hero. Lol.
  20. Horvat saying our play is "unacceptable", is the new Green saying "that's a good team over there".
