Post-Game Talk: Canucks 2, Wild 4: Halfway point of the season

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Well ummm we are in trouble. Lost 4 straight. I just want the Canucks to rebuild.

Take your time on updating the standings, NHL.com

Damn, it takes forever for Edler to do something with the puck when it comes back to him.

You know when Sedin passes are exploding off of sticks, it's a bad night.

Real bad night for bounces not going our way at all

I think we actually have to consider moving Schneider.

 

[monster_bertuzzi]

I think AV is working with a pretty **** roster right now, but fire his ass anyways.

 

[Canucks LB]

they'd be nuts to fire a.v - you guys are effed up. how about a shake up. this team has been the same for far too long. theyre far too comfortable.

though, firing the PP coach , well that could be considered. lol even if we dont have those special PP players, the fact that they have more players out there, should still net them a few goals.. i haven't seen them goto the net, they still play the perimeter

there is a ton of things they could try before hiring the head coach. for one, being healthy

Here is another super talented team who fired there coach, Look what happened.

When's the last time we won a game? 3 weeks ago?

Oy...

And posts like this help a lot. Fake fans? Sorry, we don't want to be on the bubble of the playoffs.

Yea, the guys spending hours on this website discussing the Canucks are the "fake fans"

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Agreed. It was a dumb move. Everyone knew it.

But let's please move on now.

I like you.

Do we really need to have pictures of Brown lifting the Cup in here?

 

[Grumbler]

Makes no sense how we just got outworked by a team that played back to back + travel...The scrubs must go.

You know when Sedin passes are exploding off of sticks, it's a bad night.

his hesitation all the time, bugs me. takes so long for him to decide and takes him so long to actually get it off his stick, his wind ups drag out, and im not even talking abotu a slap shot (thats even worse)

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

He isn't playing well enough for center our 4th line. He hasn't deserved to play on any of the first 3 lines. His potential may be an NHL calibre C but right now he's better suited for the AHL.

Maybe if AV/Brown hadn't destroyed all his confidence with the genius idea of putting him on the point and frequently demoting him when he did play well, this wouldn't be the case.

I've bolded the differences between those teams and our team.

Glad Parise didn't get a hat trick.

Ah the familiar comfort of mediocre Canucks hockey. How I missed thee during this odd period of franchise success.

Sorry but our team is super talented, it's basically the same team that won back to back president trophy's.

 

[Biggest Canuck Fan]

Btw the canucks are now 2 games below .500 at 11-13'on the season.

 

[BrandonL]

Sharks and Avs game goes into OT. Great, a three point game.

This is what we have become? Scoreboard watching for a playoff spot.

 

[John Bender*]

Correction...from January 2012 to January 2013 (except for the goaltending - everybody else was pretty much M.I.A.).

The thing that scares me the most about this team is that Gillis will simply use the Kesler absence as an excuse to do nothing.

 

[serge2k]

Wow Garrison's shot. So close.

Why is anyone surprised we're so close to being overtaken by the likes of CBJ/MIN/EDM/etc? We're a 12-12 team essentially. Our shootout failures have significantly hurt us in the standings, and even then it would only be covering up more systemic issues.

What hurts them in the standings is a 9-7 regulation record.

 

[PG Canuck]

Lets react with optimism and happiness after losing the division and playing god awful for a year.

Fixed that for you.

These examples are ****in ridiculous.

This team has nowhere near that talent.
