I learned a lot from it. Although I remember the individual plays I had not put the big picture together in my mind. The quote from Boeser is an understatement, The change in philosophy is a big change. The Canucks have gone from among the worst in the league in generating quick chances off changes of possession to among the best in the league. This also explains why their time in O-Zone has declined. They are NOT going for the offensive cycle game. They are going for the quick opportunity instead. This is consistent with Boudreau's instruction to "shoot more". That's his philosophy -- generate quick chances and take the shot. Also, Boudreau has mentioned that quick up-ice passing can substitute for speed to some extent for team speed (although it is nice to have both). That leads to more chances at both ends of the ice (and more exciting games) and, with good goaltending and good snipers, it plays to the Canucks advantages. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Cull changed their transition game to Bruce Boudreau's system? Or are they still using their old system? I was thinking the same thing. Has BB even talked to Cull yet?

The quick up and quick transition rush is how this team was built. It's asinine to think dump and chase and cyclying in the ozone was the best option with guys like Petey, Hogs, Garland etc. The only ones that could probably do it decently are Pearson and hten Horvat Miller and Brock to a lesser degree. To form an entire team strategy this way was ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanucksJay Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Last night I heard 4-6 additional players tested positive? Was that true? Weird that we are still scheduled to play with Schenn and Lamikko already out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsiders Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 These divisional games are the games that are essentially "must win" games for the Canucks if they want to make the playoffs. 4 point swings are critical from here on out. The Canucks can afford some losses to the Eastern conference teams, like the leafs on Saturday, but they have to find ways to come out of these games on top! I believe they can do it, anytime you have Demko in net you have a good chance to win!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
