Zhukini Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 The good news is we have the Sens after this. I see Petey getting one tonight, then getting 7 in the next 3 games against the Sens. I'm thinking we'll be 5-5 after 10, which considering the slump the team is in now, the playoffs will still be a reality. If they lost tonight and then can't get 5/6 points against the Sens we can talk about next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Marchand Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) 169-0 Montreal. An angry Claude Julien negotiates a deal with some nearby aliens to use their spaceship to abduct all the Canucks' healthy defencemen in retaliation for the Myers hit. Hughes is the only one who escapes the spaceship's tractor beam because of his height. Left with only one defenceman, Green summons Eriksson from the taxi squad to play with Hughes for the entire game. Realizing the long odds, the remaining Canucks players, including Holtby, protest this injustice by lying face-down one by one across the blueline. Tyler Toffoli ends up scoring all 169 goals.

Puckster Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 We need the "D" to step up bigtime. Limit the Gaffs It wouldn't hurt if our goalies made a save or 2 as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nux_win Posted January 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2021 I know it's nothing new but I'm totally disappointed at all these "fans" predicting a lopsided loss just so that they don't have to take any risks with their ego and actually cheer for the team to win. I thought that fans were supposed to cheer for their team to win. At least that's the way I interpret being a fan. Yeah, we've had a bad start but that's no reason to be convinced that we're a bad team. Have a little backbone folks. I'm going out on a limb here and predicting a 4-2 win. And if we lose again I'm still going to cheer for the team to win the next game too. Go Canucks Go! 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Changes Green won't do, but that might work .... Loui slots into his spot on Bo's line, moving Hoagie to Gaud's, and putting the Rooster in the stands. Bo and Pearson with LE are a proven defensively responsible line that can score, and who wouldn't like to see Gaud, Hoagie and the Shotgun perform? Juolevi partners with Rafferty, with whom he had some chemistry last year in Utica. Myers with Hughes and Benn with Schmidt Don't know where Mac and/or Bailey fit, but both would be improvements on 7 or 8 of our 12 current forwards (heck, if Baertschi were in the taxi squad, I'd dress him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 With how strong the Habs are and how we’ve played defensively we are in rough. Only way we win is if our goalie stands on their head and/or the offence scores 5+. We need Petey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devron Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Just gotta play tighter. Stop worrying about offence so much. Play smart and the chances will come. also Oilers suck too so there’s that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The posts people are making reflect a mentally ill fanbase. We've had calls for firing Benning (which really doesn't do anything at this point, a knee jerk reaction), firing Green and his assistants (probably won't happen at an instant) and some posters just repetitively drilling on the fact that Sutter, Eriksson and others could have kept Toffoli around. The reality is that the Canucks aren't just one top six winger away from a playoff spot. People love to criticize every transaction that is made by Canucks management, but are unable to take criticism of their own. Your post is a good one because the toxicity of the fanbase needs to be addressed. This behaviour has been a long standing issue and it's honestly embarrassing. This fanbase is well known for having a lot of whiny fans. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been there and done it. Usually within a minute or so, I'm looking at them shaking my head, then I move along. The thing is, it's all about them. There's something about them that has to continually tear apart pretty much anything, including the Canucks. It's their nature. It starts from within. They must be a blast to party with. I wish them well, but seek help. Edited January 23, 2021 by BarnBurner 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born almost 51 years ago in Vancouver, and have followed this team from my childhood. When they are not playing well, and aren't showing too many signs of turning it around, I am totally within my right as a fan to think they will not win the next game ..l..
