RU SERIOUS Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) It only took half a season but the Canucks have amazingly now hit under a 1% chance of making the playoffs, (Now at 000.6% chance according to MoneyPuck) after the latest loss tonight against Carolina. I am unable to locate & confirm all past historical stats dating back 52 years to 1970 to see if this current 22-23 roster now holds the all time historical record for the fastest decline ever towards playoff elimination (basically 0%) for this franchise but If anyone has further information/stats - feel free to chime in.

Popular Post Dazzle Posted January 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Sell everyone that can be sold, especially Miller. Horvat looks like he'll be sold as well. What a shame. Be bad for Bedard. Fail for Fantilli - not sure if I like this guy Miss the playoffs for Michkov Crash the Season for Carlsson I'm honestly looking forward to seeing us draft very high for the first time in a long time. To be honest though, even if we got 7 or 8, these players are pretty good still. Edited January 15, 2023 by Dazzle 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post shiznak Posted January 15, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 15, 2023 The worst thing to happen to this franchise in the past 10 years was making the “playoffs” in 2020. It gave false hope to the fans, management, and owners that this team was actually a playoff team. 1 1 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanuckleHorse Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 A big defensive D-man and a good top 9 checking defensive forward away from having a decent enough team. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took the easier approach of going through the Vancouver records and working out at what game in the season they hit 22 losses to at least see how we were faring against older seasons - 14th worst in terms of out of the gate but we hopefully have a good shot at that 1972 loss total over our remaining 40 games. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest though, even if we got 7 or 8, these players are pretty good still. Between Fantilli and Carlsson, I feel like Carlsson may be the better player. 1st overall is a no brainer but if we somehow win the 2nd overall, it will be a tough call between Fantilli and Carlsson. Michkov will likely fall due to him being a Russian and under contract until 2015. If we have say 7th or 8th overall pick and Michkov is available, I'd say we pick him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right about all this. Carlsson, I feel, did better in the WJC, even if that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Michkov is really, really light, to be my surprise. He's 154 lbs apparently, but oozes talent that this team hasn't seen in forever. He could drop due to the Russian factor, as you said, but also because the scouts haven't seen his recent play. I'd really be happy with Dvorsky or Sale though, if we were to slip to 7 or 8. They played awesome for their teams.

What happened in 2002? We only lost 8 regulation games in 39 games? We even made the playoffs that season. Looking back, 2022 is also quite impressive. Losing only 8 times in 31 games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeanSeanBean Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Over the summer, most posters were saying this team was a sure in for the playoffs. I had a couple heated discussions saying I didn't think it was that cut and dry (I did think we would make it, it would just be close and likely a bubble team) I hate that I was right in having doubts. Wish I was right about still being a playoff team. Edited January 15, 2023 by Shayster007 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
