fyi, everybody seems to want to "spread out the scoring" by having miller anchor his own line; well, this is what happens when you do that. you think you're making 3 lines that can score when really you're making 3 lines that can be shut down. 

 

the canucks aren't tampa. only the absolute elite of deep teams can do it successfully. 

100%. Our top 2 lines need to be filled with our best players.

Miller-Petey-Boes

Garland-Horvat-Hog

 

Our 3rd line will still be able to put up some points and be defensively sound, while making our top 2 lines pretty dangerous offensively.

Seriously they won’t play in front of the fans for three weeks… and this is the best they can do for the fans who paid to watch this crap? At least score we haven’t scored a goal at home for six periods….

Neither one will be fired this year.

 

Aquilini gave them shiny new contracts. No chance he pays them to stay home.

 

This coaching staff and their style and systems simply do not fit this roster of players.

You hit the nail on the head.   Our Special teams are attrocious especially the PK and or PP is still built around ALL play on the ouside - taking low probability shots and NO driving to the net.   From what I've seen in the pre-season it may be a repeat of last year.

What? 

So why not play the new faces (that will actually play reg season) during preseason instead of Highmore, Dowling, focht, Di Giuseppe, Dries, Petan, Bailey, Lockwood and Gadj

Arent most of those guys new?

[-NucksFan]

3-0 , they don’t need a shot on goal

Wait so.... That's not coaching? 

Yeah, apparently it's on the players. They're new blah blah.

 

Green has retained the same useless systems from his Cinderella run.

No pride.

The shot counter seems to have given up

 

[dKs89]

Don't think there's been a single Grade A scoring chance so far. Seems about right.
