Blues got outplayed, but I think we'll win the next one. Dallas and Vegas are the favourites for the WC spots, and EDM likely takes #3 in Pacific... That's our direct competition.
Blues had like 3 or 4 two on ones in the first period and many more after that. They didn’t give us a single odd man rush. Not sure what you were watching. …..
Should be traded the moment the offseason beginsBrock Boeser
Yeah but we also got 9th highest paid dman in the league who is a pretty good #4 for us so...Guenther tracking really well. Would have been nice to have him or Sillinger on an ELC vs Garland at 4.95 million….lol
They can't play Demko every game. Better to throw this one (tired team) to Halak and keep Demko fresh for the home games. Blues Knights Knights. The Canucks need to win against both games the Knights to have the slightest chance.Bruce is massive upgrade over the incompetent Travis Green. The decision to start Halak was stupid. It sends the wrong message to the team and he was not going to catch lightning in s bottle twice with Halak.
Dumb decision Bruce
So we’re gonna pick a top 15-20 pick.
halak just makes our team much less intimidating when he is in goal, its like we know we are going to lose
But good thing Demko sat on the bench in favour of the backup on a non b2b night
Did anyone already make a meme of Will smith slapping Chris rock and labeling rock as our playoff chances and will smith as STL?
Cuz I don’t wanna waste my time if someone already did this.
Podkolzins breakouts or Zone Exits are steadily improving.
Huge plus,
Good to see a guy improving in that department.
Boeser has actually become steadily worse in that department to the point he is one of the worst forwards in that department.
Guenther tracking really well. Would have been nice to have him or Sillinger on an ELC vs Garland at 4.95 million….lol
12 whole pages. Guess I didn't miss much, this season
Almost a guaranteed loss tonight... Last game of a tough trip, with a travel schedule bordering on insane. But the reality is, if Dallas wins their four games in hand the playoff chase is basically done.
Can't fault the effort....they try....but the way teams like Minny and St. Louis will beat the Canucks every time is with 'big boy hockey'. Take the man and finish your checks, particularly along the wall, because the Canucks lack size, speed and skill.
Not to harp on it, because the Canucks have injuries and guys are being asked to fill in. But any team being forced to use guys like Petan, Chiasson. Richardson, Hunt, Lammikko and even Lockwood at this point his career, really isn't built to be a playoff team. I'm pretty certain that few of those guys will be anywhere near the lineup next season.
But on a positive note, Rutherford and Allvin can see the same things we all see......this is basically a capped out team that's too small and too slow.
