DeNiro Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Not saying injuring is an excuse that Canucks lost today, but name me another team where they lost an Edler, a Bieksa, a Corrado, a Tanev, a Miller, a Burrows, and a Richardson. That equals to: 1 bottom 6 player 1 player that can play the top 6 & bottom 6 2 best D's on the team 1 top 4 D (arguably top 6) 1 top 6 or depth D 1 starting G At some point it does become as an excuse whether people think it is or not. The players won't admit to it, but when two third of your D are AHL players and depth defenseman, your odds of winning start to drop. These guys have stepped up admirably, but there's a reason why they're depth players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I dunno, you kind of do have to expect that if you think this team is to be taken seriously. Now hindsight is 20/20 but now WD has a predicament. Now Lack had a bad game and if you go to Markstrom you risk Lack losing confidence moving forward. Whereas if you went with Marky tonight Lack knows he is getting the next home game and he rides into still full of confidence from his previous games. Tough third period for Lack, but hopefully it is a learning experience and he grows from this. The team needed this 2 points though. This game had Markstrom written all over it, but the rookie coach read it all wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Buffalo was missing Ennis and Girgensons, their top offensive guy on the ice tonight was Moulson with a whopping 26 points coming into tonight and they put up 6 goals against us. no excuse for that We should have won tonight, yes. It's not okay that we didn't. You're right. I just don't think it's as horrible as people are making it out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastal1 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Eddie is not a starter. "TRADE MILLER" fans need to take their heads outta their behind.Exactly. Miller knows what it takes to be a starter and rarely has stinkers like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 no just some teams missing their best player Edler or Tanev? We're missing both of them yea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soshified Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 why are you doing this now we beat nyr, nyi, boston give it a rest they don't need excuses made for them If you read my post, i said injury wasn't an excuse. I'm just pointing out to another person that said: "cause every other team in the league doesn't deal have to deal with them as well" I replied by basically saying: are those teams missing the type and amount of players we have?

coastal1 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 This game had Markstrom written all over it, but the rookie coach read it all wrong.He is a rookie, and rookies make mistakes. Everyone knows that Markstrom is a great AHL goalie and Buffalo is an AHL team so it should have been an obvious choice but the rookie somehow missed it.

I dont care how many injuries we have on D we should be able to beat them. Lets stop with the injury excuses, If we had lost to Preds then its understandable, but we lost to a bottom feeder thats also shorthanded... so nobody can use the injuries here.

blackpluto96 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The inability to get one point out of losses really hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manudibango Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Everyone here needs to take a breather.. Yes we should have won against Buffalo, but who expected we go 3-2 this road trip? So , the team was prepare for three win, is Dan, mean we can lost against Buffalo?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bookie Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I desperately want to slap Eddie Lack in the face with a brick That is one hell of a nasty thing to say. Sky isn't falling people. Still in the playoff picture and we're on the upswing of this injury streak, guys will start to return on the homestand. Buffalo might be historically bad but they're still an NHL team, one that has beaten 19 others this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your D-men can hardly make a pass out of their own zone or hit the net with their shots, it does have an impact. Forwards need their D-men to get the puck on their stick, or they're gonna have a tough time making plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA lost 1-0 to them back in December. Every excuses for them just because they won a Cup right? People need to realize that just because Buffalo is tanking, doesn't mean they're a bad team. Yes we should have won, but we're also not elite. We're a team fighting for a playoff spot hoping other west teams lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
