Really hoping we can get some positive results over the next week and a half instead of "Oh well it's the western road trip why even try?"

The Canucks to me feel like Calgary two years ago, and New Jersey last year - a team that is overachieving, and due to fall back to earth fairly soon. Let's be honest - no one gets up to play us, so hopefully we can use that to our advantage on this road swing and sneak up on some teams. A 3-2 road trip would be good, and a marked improvement over the 0-5 debacle last month...

[Pierre from Orleans]

Last year there were thousands of Sens fans in attendance. Would be great to see the same amount tomorrow night.

Vancouver is hard barn to play in. Road win would be good.

What I love about Jacques is the no excuses attitude. We won’t hear anything about a time change or travelling across the country to play a game. Just owning a loss or discussing a win.

Let’s win this game have a last 5 of 4-1-0

It's very refreshing. He puts a lot of accountability on the team to perform. No more "bad bounces". The team either creates an opportunity for themselves to win or they don't. Under DJ, he'd blame everything under the sun but the players. Great if you just want to be buddies with everyone and enjoy a nice salary. Terrible for creating a winning culture.

Win this one and I'll become delusionally positive.

What the heck? Tkachuk showed up for practice... is he making amends with Jacques?

Can't wait for the next episode of Desperate Househusbands of the Ottawa Valley

What is his injury?

He got salary-capped.
Earliest he can return is Jan 9th.

Seems like an atmosphere for fans. Pre-game energy outside the rink was great when I wandered by last year, just couldn't get my son to agree to spend the time watching a Ducks game. Would love to go see a game there.

I never understood softsided luggage. Hardwall or nothing.
