-DLC- Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 13 hours ago, -Vintage Canuck- said: Interesting… the Hurricanes are first in their division (27-9-7), but they don’t have a single player on their team that has more points than games played. It seems like they don’t heavily rely on a few guys to always produce and get contribution from everyone, playing as a team. They're also getting a good run from their goaltenders. I wish we had more consistency this year, but it matters little now in a big picture way. Defense didn't help so not just a goaltending deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In many ways they are a bit similar to the 05-06 team. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/leagues/seasons/teams/0009792006.html Aho isn't as good as Staal was that season and no rookie like cam ward in net but they were deep at d and full of two-way guys. Brindamour was the heart of that team so i like that his team plays like him. Edited January 15 by OldFaithfulCap x 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold Drunken Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 It's becoming hard to tune into these games lately. Will always be a fan but this has just gotten so stale and the franchise seems to have turned even more dysfunctional. Just a miserable doomed season from the very start...its disappointing and frustrating but I can imagine big changes coming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post -Vintage Canuck- Posted January 15 Popular Post Share Posted January 15 Ex-Canuck coach Travis Green, future Canuck coach Rick Tocchet and today's opponent's coach Rod Brind'Amour all on the same table. If you want to kill time, have a listen. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammertime Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 These aren't my Canucks. Its getting harder and harder to be a fan. I can handle the losing. I'm here for the tank if that's what it takes. But you have to make positive moves that are going to allow you to eventually turn it around. Worst Management group I have seen since Keenan and maybe worse since they are least got a haul for Linden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always been hard for me to love sakic as he used to kill us so often with the avs who i hated the most in the northwest days. But he's done great as an executive so would be happy to see him. Maybe the avs will part ways like they did with crawford and we can pounce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the plan I’ll give him a chance even though I don’t think he’s gonna work with this group. I think they’re gonna need to overhaul a lot of the team if they want the team to match his style. If he has been hired I’m very interested to see who his assistants will be. That will be the biggest moves that will determine whether it works. We cannot be going with more rookies and scrubs like Yeo. We need legit assistants with track records of top special teams and defensive systems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
