OJ nees to be in this lineup. This is about the first thing everyone on this forum has agreed on since I've been here.

Fully agree, but this decision is coming from the Coach who didn't initially think Hughes should be on the #1 PP. :lol:

depends on who else is available I guess, but I'd be thrilled with a 3rd. 4 or 5 seems more likely but still nice for free. 

 

I think our bigger ticket will be Sutter 1/2 retained. I could see Edmonton really solidifying its bottom 6 with Sutter. 

Yeah I know people are down on Gaudette but I still have some hope for him (I think he's just better suited in an offensive role as a winger).  We got him via an extra 5th round pick we got from dumping an depth player, so I guess any pick is like a free lottery ticket.  Free is free!

Why are you a fan then?   How long have you been following this team - as a fan i mean because your certainly aren't acting like one.... - is your life so miserable you just have to spam the CDC GDT/PGT with so much covert and overt invalidation?   Are you really a Canucks fan or a Leafs fan?   Or a Flames one?   Part of me could respect that - it would make more sense and actually some of your spam would even be a little funny too.   

 

When you say things like this i want to punch you in the face.   That's creating an emotional response because your invalidating the Linden era - our best one to date - pretty much an automatic bye to the second round when he was in the lineup.   Hiding behind this persona that we shouldn't celebrate anything but "pure excellence" in our history is complete nonsense.   Original six teams...odds one every six years win a cup.   Then for a couple years one every 12 (well not really - didn't get the same players as the original six did they)...  Then WHA added - soon 21 teams ... now 31 soon to be 32.   It all re-sets each time after a few years.     It comes across as whiny uber spoiled kid who keeps acting up because he didn't get what he wanted for his birthday.   And won't shut up about it.   Even some that agree with you - must be feeling a little ashamed for enabling you at this point.
 

My suggestion- either come clean and tell us all what team you really cheer for (TB would be a good choice) or cut it out.    The ignore button is on pretty heavy by now i'm sure.   Maybe reflect, pay some penance or just start a new account altogether.   In the meantime please refrain from words like garbage etc.   There was a time before Messier that anyone putting on our jersey - folks identified with them and bought it.   Respect matters - as does credibility and yours is minuscule right now in that catagory - don't mistake a few enablers as making you right.   As a Canucks fans  your a compete embarrassment,  maybe even  "most inept in the history of all pro sports " .  

Its sad you are the kind of person that accepts losing 

 

i am not

Funny how certain people on here revert to the “go to” move of saying people who question leadership are not fans

 

they would do well in a socialist world 

 

luckily we are free to speak our opinion and instead of blind faith in management and coaching we will continue to challenge incompetent decisions 

 

why? Because that's what a fan should do

you're the one saying that they are much closer to a cup. I think we'll enjoy watching another early exit. 

Its sad we are reduced to cheering against certain teams versus demanding more out of our own team 

 

we are playing nowhere near our potential

this part we can agree on for sure. My concern is Greens inability to right the ship, I don't get it. These guys showed they have so much more to give in the bubble.

Very very interesting column from Kuz in "The Province". Pretty darn good description of what is going on. The following two paragraphs are quite telling. Therefore decided to copy it:

 

The Canucks lead in even-strength scoring and take-aways, and that should provide a foundation to build upon. And being ranked fourth in hits and blocked shots indicates the desire is there. But what about taking the most penalties? What about allowing the second-most goals at even-strength and blowing 3-0, 2-0 and 2-0 first-period leads in three of the last five outings?

 

Instead, Miller, Antoine Roussel, Alex Edler and Tyler Myers took needless penalties Tuesday as the Canucks blew a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes. Edler and Myers were the most culpable with third-period gaffes. Edler tripped diminutive winger Kailer Yamamoto and Connor McDavid needed just nine seconds to make it 3-3.

 

I really do think that the lack of discipline of some of our veteran players is an issue that a headcoach should be able to re-solve. At the time rumors did appear that Canucks are pursuing Myers as an free- agent signing I was one of a handful fans that thougt this signing would not be a good idea, not only because of money and term but most importantly I was not convinced from Myers as a player.
