Sincerely hope Seattle takes Holtby before he sinks our next season too

Holtby on team tank

Or Myers or Eriksson or Beagle or Roussell or Virtanen or anyone else im forgetting?

 

[geebaan]

This team is the most frustrating I’ve ever watched.

 

[Orca Smash]

Someone who knows more about goaltending might have to correct me, but did holtby really need to back that far in so pld had more and more room to do what he wants and roof it. He just kind of went into his net and dropped to his knees.

They'll take Lind or the big guy.

PLD is a player

 

[timw33]

Why exactly did we spend $4.3MM on Holtby?

Someone please explain it to me, haven't gotten a reasonable explanation since the signing. Does not move the needle for the team.

[Canucks LB]

It’s obviously not completely his fault whatsoever, but I have seen completely enough of Holtby, He just gives me absolutely zero confidence, everygame.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Feel like that’s the first game all year I can definitively say our goaltending cost us the game. We were the better team and played a really strong game - a few groaners from Holtby and that’s all she wrote.

 

[Lawzy]

Holtby looked pretty good this game until he aggressively didn't anymore.

 

[canuckking1]

Canucks literally let every star player in the league pad stats against us. Someone should check the North splits in games vs Vancouver and not.

Not amused with Holtby on that goal. Was looking for a big save, but it doesn't seem to be happening by our goaltenders this year.

Boeser didn't look good on that game winner either.

One loss away from Senators

This season is a bust. Just get a top 5 pick and move on. They need to punt a good 1/3 of the roster.

Holtby is garbage. Time to retire.

We gamble, and we lost, better options available, we went for a boom or bust, and got the bust

 

[Peen]

Roussel was awful the whole game.

I don’t think JV18 played.

Holtby looked weak to me on multiple goals.

The LD on the second and third pairings are huge liabilities at ES.

 

[JiffyPB]

I hate this loss because now the team is playing reasonably well and our goalies find a way to be anti-clutch.

Imagine downgrading from Markstrom at 6 to Holtby at 4.3 when you could have signed any cheaper backup and probably gotten the same results.

Seriously he beats Boeser below the circle and Holtby slides all the way back to a foot on the post. He has no pass for f***s sake why did you back off your challenge????

 

[Pip]

Man that play by Boeser was awful to watch. Some real JT Miller energy there.

also Holtby sucked tonight

Remember when goalies used to steal games for the canucks? Those were some good ol days

say it again for the people in the back
