Looking forward to seeing beagle get 15+ mins while gauds gets 10

 

[Love]

The Leafs beat Calgary 6-2 so that prorates to them beating us about 12-0.

 

[swedehollow]

New game. New lines. Old mistakes. Same result.

 

[Cheeks Clapinski]

We are going to get eviscerated

 

[Fire Benning]

Only 16 more..we can do this guys.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Looking to see a rebound game after probably the worst game of the year..I expect the Canucks to play a good game, but will still come up short on the scoreboard.

 

[hellstick]

6 pm home game huh? Good luck in traffic for those going to the game.

I dunno if my will is strong enough to keep watching, cookie. Its a total trainwreck.

It would be different if the team was playing like they were earlier in the season during their losing streak, making the games still enjoyable to watch by competing hard... but these last couple games it's like they're just broken now and going through the motions.

Hoping Pettersson gets back on the board this game at least.

Hoping jay beagle earns that contract and does his leadership thing “ON the ice” cause you know with veterans like him we should have back to back bad games

Hopefully Mitch Marner scores a dozen points so his annual salary gets inflated to 14M.

Gudbranson-Pouliot somehow combine for a -20.

erm, you DO realize we traded Guddy to Pittsburgh don't you?

 

[vancityluongo]

That's what makes it even more incredible

 

[JanBulisPiggyBack]

I’m team tank and I use to say things like “ I’m team tank but I would love to beat the leafs “ but really why? I mean I hate the leafs as much as I hate Edmonton, Calgary, LA, Anaheim, Montreal, Detroit and the list goes on. What’s the point of “sticking it to” any team. I am willing to get slapped silly for the rest of the year if it means Benning gets fired

Hard to believe we are back to this same ol situation this same ol ball and chain

Hutton hurtin’ (foot). #Canucks could face Leafs with: Edler-Biega Pouliot-Stecher Sautner-Schenn

I'm not sure the starting day roster (blueline in 1970) was that much inferior than those guys.

Hey now... that's not fair.

Too funny. Just listening to the Pat Cast and Botchford while he was in Vegas he had dinner with some NHL Agents and they were saying that in December and January when the Canucks were doing ok. Benning and Weisbroud were very arrogant and strutting around arena thinking as one agent said they were " Ballers" the agents were laughing at them and more so now. wow!!!

 

[Zombotron]

That would be a sight to behold. I'm picturing something like Philip Seymour Hoffman's character in Hard Eight, except there's two of them

LMAO remember when the national media said this about Gillis.

If we only win one more game this season, let this be the one...no sand tomorrow.

Why not the "trifecta"? We still play the Oilers and Flames once.

 

[Addison Rae]

Watching Benning’s team get exposed on the national stage would be great.
