NucksCup2015 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I gave that up several years ago. Its not even about Luongo. Its about those who staked their 'internet egos' on Luongo and now have to defend him no matter what. Luongo is falling victim to what every players falls victim to. He is getting older. He is slightly worse than last year when he was slightly worse than the year before etc............. I actually think Lou's game has improved and I wanted us to keep Schnieds. He's not letting in really bad goals very often (can only think of one bad one the goal the other night between the legs - vs Chicago) He's controlling his rebounds really well (an area of concern in the past) Not having to make many desperation saves (means he's in better position) The only weakness he hasn't improved is post to post from right to left (faceplants) Other than that I actually see improvement, our problems are yet again not Lou. Does he need to start bailing us out a bit ya, but the SOURCE of our problems are not Lou, can he be a partial solution yes but it will simply hide the real issues...much as it has in the past..

Blackberries Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I'm sorry guys but neither side landed ONE PUNCH. Good on him for sticking up to the bigger guy but this wasn't even a fight, not one punch connected on either side Thought he got him with the uppercut in the chin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaNuCkSLoUiE23 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Bieksa, Booth, Lack, Higgins, Hansen, Weise, decent games No shows Sedins Lou Kesler Edler Can't win like that! And once again Burrows gets a free pass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastal1 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 bieksa fight made up the game for me. now people can't say he picks his fights For sure, Boyle is a known fighter, so again it's not like Bieksa takes on someone who is not know to be a fighter.

Peaches Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 You think SESTITO has been the most underrated? Sure, he's played well the last couple games...he's played his role. It's not like he's out there potting goals and overperforming. Never said he was overperforming, but IMO he hasn't got enough credit for how well he's done. Huge improvement on last season.

No, it's about the Luongo haters who staked THEIR "internet egos" on Schneider and were so sure he was going to replace Luongo and become the new starter that now have to jump all over any chance to rip on Luongo because they were wrong about Schneider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 The message is when nothing matters, I'm a tough MF ... That's about it. If Bieksa wants to blow off steam after a loss, that's fine, whatever. But it doesn't mean anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NucksCup2015 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Just some stats from today's game: Booth's conditioning stint must have worked, he's scoring at a 20-30 goal pace again since coming back from it. Edler has the 2nd worst +/- in the league at -14, the only player at -15 is Yakupov. Unbelievable considering the next worse on our team is -7 for Sestito. Burrows now has 3 assists in 16 games and is a minus player. That is the stat line of a 4th liner if that, and he's playing 16 minutes on our top line for some reason. Now that we've fixed Booth, Burrows needs a kick in the head. He shouldn't get special treatment just because he generates chances and had success before - 16 games worth of chances and just 3 lowsy points is unacceptable. Demote him down the lineup the way Booth was and make him earn his spot or scratch him, because he's costing our top line some offence right now when there are plenty of other guys more capable than he is. Edler for Yak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good on him for sticking up to the bigger guy but this wasn't even a fight, not one punch connected on either side lol Bieksa almost drops him with the first punch at :04 what are u watching, if he connected fully with that he would have knocked Boyle out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am-LO5qP97E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Teams that Edler might waive for, + might be interested...Detroit, Pitts, Philly, NYI? Youth and/or picks would be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lui's Knob Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Where was burrows and Kesler?? Maybe send burrows to Montreal and Kesler to Philly or Columbus . Team needs so badly a shakeup and management sit by for 2 wasted years to watch the sudden fall of a team gutted with no immediate blue chip prospects, a goalie who doesn't want to be here, a dead powerplay, NTC a plenty, no 2nd line and Kassian. Stellar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Bellick^ Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Did I list every player? and In fact Burrows had a decent game, a few chances just couldn't pot them...but he was working hard as usual dufus Haha you call me the child and here you are throwing out insults to everyone who has a different opinion than you.

Dr.Strangelove Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Okay that game was painful but people need to stop blaming individuals this is a TEAM sport the Canucks win or lose as a team. We lost because we once again couldn't get enough goals to win We lost because our defense as a whole weren't playing all that good We lost because we got out played all around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
