Nucker 67 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 What happened to those amazing crisp passes and onslaught of scoring chances? They look out of sync, no real plan (even though they say they have one) I agree with some that this team has good players, but they need a coaching staff that will take them to the next level. The PP should be deadly, but it's terrible. Hey, let's give the coach (Brown) a raise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ShawnAntoski Posted November 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) Release the trolls and let the lecturing start !!! All kidding aside, this is just part of the lows and highs of a season; at the very least this team is capable of competing. I would be more worried if this is happening after the trade deadline...

No excuses...but they are going to lose at times. Even back to backs...all teams do. If they put 10 losses up, sure. But we always jump at the first sign of trouble. Glad they don't. Exactly, its tough to go to bed around 4AM and play the next evening. This game was close until late (and tied if Horvat scores from in close) and that is quite the accomplishment given the circumstances. You try to win some of those games but you can't be too upset if you lose them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many power plays that we started our second useless line when we could have taken a timeout and talk it over and start our first unit? I very much agree with this. The drop off from our first unit PP and second unit is huge. I hate seeing the second unit start at all. It’s worth taking a timeout to put #1 out first. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stands there with zero in game management Gonna have to agree with you. He does not adapt well during games. I also thought he was over the top happy to be in the game with the Blues. Played Petey 1 shift in OT and they lost. Hmm. Experienced coach might be looking at how to win that game rather than being happy just to be in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krzysl Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Canucks are a good team but let’s not kid ourselves we are a fringe playoff team. We still have this year to rebuild. We have pieces in place to be a very good team but a couple things NEED to be done! Trade tanev(contract expiring can’t resign) trade markstrum (contract expires can’t resign) trade Stecher (contract expires can’t resign) we must do this even though it will make us not a playoff team this year. We can free up cap space and gets some young talent and picks. Get a nice lottery pick or high pick and aim high next season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cali Canuck Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I missed the last ten minutes of the game because I had to pick up my son from basketball. Probably not the worst thing to miss. Honestly in the second period esp. they looked very tired. I remember Leivo, and Pearson and maybe Sutter were all on the ice and they looked dead tired. I don't they been on the ice that long or had a tough shift they just looked very tired. I think this b2b just killed them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deception was the league had us looking at Arizona who was sufffering badly too at the time but behind closed doors - whammo Winnipeg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milk and honey Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Very very poor game again PP was terrible. Good for Bo to experience this when new to captain We need a 2nd line. Bottom 6 need to pitch in with some goals to Tanev is a babe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
