Canucks couldn't help but shoot themselves in the foot.

Niether team was great defensively but even something as simple as shooting the puck. So many of NJ's goals (including the winner) came from just putting the puck on net.

Vanacek's giving up rebounds all night & the Canucks refuse to put pucks on net till the last 10 mins (and they score 3)

Non-playoff team stuff
Tocchet needs to tell them to shoot the puck. Even kuzmenko was hesitating to shoot

Cole with a ridiculous play cost the Canucks the game. What is he doing trying to put this puck up the boards on his backhand?

Frustrating game as a Canucks fan given our blunders, but credit to NJ they are a really fast team. They have good C's in Hughes/Hischier but also wingers that can make a difference like Bratt/Toffoli/Palat. It separates their forward group from others.

They have improvements to make but I think they'll be fine. Still a really good team.

NJ is very good, Canucks should have played better on D coverage. Myers single handidly lost us the game.
Cole ignoring the 3 wide open Canucks and trying to push the puck up the boards on his back hand cost Vancouver the game. Myers didn't help though

Saros will cost more and Gibson has sucked for the last couple years and just recently has a bit of a resurgence.

Better to trade with the team that always seems to loses the trade. ;)
Markstrom is damaged goods and far too inconsistent

I think Demko is hurt, he tweaked something last game and hasn't looked the same since, hopefully he was just having a bad game but idk something seemed iffy. The Canucks need to find a way to trade Myers and then add a top 4 dman cause he was horrendous. Ian cole made some decisions I wasn't fond of either especially on that last goal besides chipping it up the boards he could have either passed to Hronek on the reverse or lifted it up out the zone. Hughes,miller,Boeser, and Hoglander were easily our best players tonight.

If they could somehow get rid of Myers and bring in Bear for a cheap 1 yr deal, that would be ideal for now. Bear isn't amazing but Myers sets the bar pretty low for an improvement

Demko wasn't good tonight. He needs to be better. Maybe DeSmith starts next game

Bear is way better than Myers and more mobile.

So is every goalie that isn't going to cost a fortune.

Vejmelka. Allen, Markstrom, Gibson all are questionable. Devils have bellow league average goaltending, If we can get average then the Devils offence should be able to carry the team forward.

ONE MORE THING!

The Canucks need to stop hogging all the good Goalie coaches. They are being extremely rude.

Myers is bad. But that was such an entertaining game. That might be one of the best periods played this year in the league for pure entertainment value
