Canucks are currently one point behind last year's pace. That is the pace that got Green and Benning fired.

So who fires the owner, because it’s his direction of “never rebuilding” that got us into this mess.

Another thing Miller does is give the puck away, then not back check. He is very good at this , as he does it in almost every single game.

But he yells a bunch so -great leader amirite?

At least he shows emotions. And those things can be taught and when the team is wining things will go better.

 

Bo is as much a leader as a soccer ball in a ball diamond

Wish it was more like 5 points behind.

We could very much do with a couple years selecting top three.  Our best teams were led by Linden (a second pick) and the Twins (picks 2 and 3).

Yup our luck we may never get a first,but a couple of top three's we might be ok long as other picks turn out.

 

 

Wish Tram would have come back

Kessler played a tough game and was a huge reason his teams made the playoffs and went far in the playoffs. He had to mitigate the toll on his body. 
 

Bo’s the leader and has led this team into being a bunch of soft bend over and take it “pussy’s” just like you said. Hes the biggest player in the NHL who has gone the most games without throwing a hit.

 

Thats not the kind of leader that takes a team to the NHL playoffs and beyond.

 

Ill be happier than a pig in shit when Soft as butter Bo is traded. 

I'm not buying it.  We're middle of the pack for hits. (15th I believe) That's not our problem.  We also lead the league in fights if I'm not mistaken.  We had a lot of fights from 1997-1999 as well.  Pretty terrible years.  

 

I'm open to having my mind changed but I feel like we haven't had a lot of success with "tough" teams in our city.

Tell me you’ve never played real hockey without telling me you’ve played real hockey… (tier 6 ankle skaters Hockey doesn’t count)

 

 

 

Don’t get me wrong. I like Horvat. I just don’t think he is doing everything in his power to win. In fact I I think he's rather apathetic. He looking after his own interests… A contract year and he’s scoring. 
 

4 Fights in his NHL career.

how many hits? I wouldn’t be surprised if it was less than Pettersson. 
 

He’s the captain and he is going to be the one who carries the burden. And I place the blame on his shoulders for not leading this team. 
 

 

All he has to do is show this more than 4x a decade… 

 

And only 1 of his 4 fights was sticking up for someone other than himself.

Lol, played lacrosse all the way up until junior. 
 

Fighting does not equal leadership even moreso in todays NHL. And leadership is not an issue, period.  You’re fkn clueless to argue otherwise.

Then id expect you to understand that physicality is part of the game…

 

Edit: and its not about fighting for me. Its about showing emotion. You can be the best leader in the dressing room all you want. But the real game is played on the ice.

Being in a locker room for years I’ve learned people outside it don’t know shit regarding actual leadership. Your whining about Bo further proves that.

leaders know how to control emotions, keep them in check and give those they lead an even, steady keel.

Already ? Jeez .. 

[Conscience]

Seems pretty clear theres a culture and leadership problem. New management, new coaches and still underperforming with low effort.

We have a lot of softeroos who are way too easy to play against.

I have a jersey signed by Burr and a draft year Bo jersey and a bunch of other memorabilia FS. Make me an offer.  This team has lost the privilege of having fans continue to show up for this team. Embarrassing. 

link to items?

Horvat vs Miller, who would give the better return?

Horvat but we will never replace what he brings.  

Build around petey and bo

Last I heard there's still no helping him, he hasn't been freed 

 

#FreePodz

I hope the team and fans are patient with Podkolzin. I coud be wrong but would a good player comparison be Valeri Nichushkin...he went back to Russia early and still didn't work out in Dallas but found a home with Colorado and was on an early tear this season before the ankle injury. If Pod could morph into someone close to Nichushkin eventually I think that would be a great player for the Canucks to have on their team!
