If he'd held onto Loui and co we'd have a whack of cap opening up soon too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, who's gonna replace him for 25+ mins per night. Somebody more capable at far less of a cap hit? Plenty of defensemen in the league can eat up minutes for less than 6 mill. For 4 mill you can find yourself even one of those two way defensemen capable of not having the play die on his stick every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherCanucksFan Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I think losing Horvat and Pearson was a big loss for faceoffs and scoring. Demko wasn't bad, but wasn't great. On the other hand, the biggest reasons the Canucks lost were their attitude. They were caught again trying not to lose instead of pushing to win. They got passive and watched players skate circles around them. How do you fix the scared attitude in players? Is it the players or can it be trained out of them to not panic and play with more confidence? We all knew that Minnesota or Calgary were the games they might lose, so when they lost in OT to Ottawa we all knew the season was over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Chronic.Canuck Posted April 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 22, 2022 Demko is obviously exhausted out there. Tough to win a game against a team on a roll like Minni with Pearson-Horvat-Hoglander missing. Congrats Petey on the 30th goal though! 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Literally as you said, in the third period when the game was on the line he physically took the rest of the night off. Didn't engage in a single board battle, didn't try to open up ice for his teammates, didn't try to get open for a pass, just straight legged it as if he was playing the rest of the game going for a line change. awful take. he was better than Miller tonight... Boeser is a guy that they should trade to upgrade the D, but to single him out is ridiculous... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be changes, but let's not make it another drastic off-season that takes the team forever to build chemistry again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy is an absolute dog out there chasing after a bone. Cant blame Miller when they circled Hunt multiple times in D zone or Myers being picked apart. Miller is an all out offensive guy that has almost 100 points so he gets a bit of a leeway when it comes to being a liability in our zone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nashville needs 2 points in 5 games Dallas needs 4 points in 5 games. LA is playing the Blackhawks. Game just started. Dallas is playing the Flames tied 1-1 second intermission. We’re pretty much almost done. Barring we win every game and one of LA/Dallas don’t get anymore points. We are done. Period! Miller just stopped giving a crap after the Ottawa death blow. Horvat injury sealed this teams fate, which is sad to say how little depth we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedinyoureyesontheprize Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Please Someone explain why this team can play so good then so $&!# for periods of time. They look like two completely different teams. one oozes confidence and a never back down attitude and other is timid and indecisive. most frustrating part of it all.

drdeath Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Canucks don't even have to play to get shafted by the refs. Two straight PPs for the Kings early against the Hawks. First one was obvious second was a super soft cross check and the Kings make it 1-0 on the second PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
