The question has to be asked:

 

Why do the Canucks not play with that kind of defensive urgency in all their 3rd Periods???

 

Why is tonight's game an exception to the rule of them collapsing???

 

There is no reason why they can't make a habit of being defensively responsible, covering their man, getting the puck in deep, standing up in the neutral zone, hitting their opponents in the D zone and not taking stupid penalties.

 

Its coaching.

Coaching duties do include motivation and ensuring effort. BB is such a sweetheart of a man that if he lost it on the boys, he would apologize a few min later. He is too kind. Kind of like when he addressed the media after last game and ripped into his players a wee bit, only to follow that with another release saying it was more to do with him that had to take responsibility.

That was fun hey guys? 

Yeah we likely won’t make the playoffs but at least we can enjoy the good game once in a while.

Is this all that longtime Canucks fans are content with !          No wonder Aqua-man sits on his behind and blocks the Rebuild!

You want a head coach who the players feel is on their side.

 

You want Assistants who grind them through practices and make them sweat.

Right, it was coaching last year too? It has nothing to do with the players. We really going to do this again.

It is the support coaches. When we had Walker and Shaw under Bruce they were clicking. When management rehired Bruce they left and so did the mojo from last year.

Why Colorado always suck against us

Because they've been injured as shit this year, the last meeting in particular 

 

Just got Mac back do he's likely not back up to speed and they've been missing Landeskog the entire season and Nuke for most of it 

 

This wasn't an Avs team at full strength

The challenge now will be to not let the Jets kill this momentum.

 

This team has struggled mightily against them. Gotta find a way to solve Hellebuyck.

The Jets are also getting Wheeler, Ehlers, Perfetti and Schmidt back in the lineup. All four players didn’t play when the Jets beat us last time.
