How are the Zebras cause last night they were the typical game managers ...

I'm probably not hanging on every call like I would for a nucks game but they seem to be calling it like the 2011 finals.  Lots of cheap shots and face punches allowed.  Big boy hockey.  If we met Boston  in the playoffs, they would physicality domnate us again just like 2011.  Sure.more entertaining than watching last nights game.

I’m tired of the way the Canucks play. They need a seismic change in their approach. Sure utilize the skill and speed to their advantage, but throw the body and make it count. Be a team instead of a bunch of players pretending to be one. 

Watching this Boston game really emphasises how soft our team plays.  Its like we are coached not to make physical contact.  As for standing up for eachother,  Boston still has their identity intact in that regard.  Take on one, take on everyone. Our team is embarrassing.

Ditto, just wanted to see if someone else noticed that the Zebras are more forgiving in this game; more so less predictable than last night when they were tyring to even out the penalties & kill momentums from both sides...

Agreed that the D-pairings have problems, hoping the coaches could fix it.

For the past two games, Canucks played not bad, just need to find the win to turn around the direction.

It’s more like: Calgary Flames vs. Demko & Hoglander.

You know when our faithful Vintage Canuck posts things like this... frustrations amongst us are high. 
 

It’ll be the Calgary Flames vs Vancouver Canucks, I hope!

As Bieksa said, the Canucks are fun to play against. Easy to score on, easy to push around.

I’m honestly astonished that we haven’t fired someone yet. How long can this drag out? It’s so amplified by the fact we lose to the teams we hate to lose to most, by the dagger of our former teammates.

Just checking in

 

have we cleaned house yet?

 

or do we wait for the next loss?

The Fun House 

That name works for the opposition teams but if naming for the Nucks fans "house of tears" would.be more appropriate.

[SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME]

My keys to the game:

 

(1) Don’t shoot pucks into the goalie’s body. Aim for the open space between his body and the iron. This is especially important when given clean open looks at goal.

 

(2) When trying to shoot glove side, don’t shoot directly into the glove. Aim either above or below the glove.

 

Follow these directions, and we may actually outscore our opponents.

 

Bonus advice: Don’t use your body or equipment to redirect opponents’ shots into your own net that were otherwise heading wide. 
 

(The team can thank me later. )

Is this the crew that will put out the tire fire?

[RWMc1]

 

We've been playing better. More back door plays against Marky. Make him stretch for those saves. If they over play him, he might pull something on one of those.

 

No prediction, just play hard for 60 damn it.

 

Go Canucks go!!!!!!!
