We were never a cup contender so it was an expected loss with all the time off. They played good against TB, they just dont have any finishers unfortunately. I dont mind trading Boeser for Klington to shake things up. We need more offense from our D. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disgruntler Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 We are looking at a very different team next year. This one is just doing window dressing for contenders at deadline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think we are seeing the last games of Boeser in a Canucks uniform. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are some expensive passes. He needs a sit. Physically he's not prepared to be there. Dare I say mentally as well. What we've seen and what we are seeing from him are miles apart.

Seems to me that the Bruce effect has worn off now. 2 losses in a row by the team, albeit against very good teams in Florida and Tampa Bay. But still. This road trip is almost half way done, and we’re 0-2. Back to back on Saturday and Sunday against Carolina and Washington. Winnable, more so than Florida and Tampa Bay, I suppose. But if this team was going to get back to the postseason, they needed to be able to win against the good teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4ZZY Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 4 minutes ago, -NucksFan said: Ah crap next 2 are weekend AM games will that help or hurt their chances I don’t think it helps us. 10am game in Carolina and then an 11am game in Washington. I would not be surprised if we lost both those games. the reality is that we could go 0-4 by Sunday afternoon. Would a 1-5 road trip kill any chance of making the playoffs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also way to soft. JR take note. I didn't get to watch the whole game, but that 2nd goal looked like one he'd want back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maniwaki Canuck Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 We can hang with these top teams as far as the run of play goes, but we aren't finishing at their level. The problems with this team are on offense, not defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimito Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Frustrating couple of games. 0 pts. Wasn't bad, but not good enough esp from our top players. They need to finish. Demko can be even better. Special teams need work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilgore Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 4 minutes ago, Canuckfanforlife82 said: Are you kidding me? Ok. Keep living in a dream. If the old Petey just materialized one day magically, we could have a real shot at making the playoffs. Thats what I mean by taking us over the top. A team that can beat Tampa at home, on a given night, and take those 2 points. If we had the old Petey, with dependable Quinn and an improved Boeser, Miller, Garland, Hogs n Podz, its not out of the question. They were all starting to get a little swagger. I blame COVID. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
