Oh probably. Although I’d take a first round exit over our season right now.
It’s painful watching the Canucks have success while we are again a few games below 0.500.
Not even them, but Arizona. Cgy is selling and ahead lol.

We are like 7 Point out right now and looking at another 3+ game losing streak

So go fly a Cannots kite then. We'll see for the Canucks where it ends. Probably something like 2012...first round exit.

Only NoCupNucks fans should be dumb enough to believe that their team will do anything but fall flat on its face in the playoffs. I’m not drinking that Kool Aid

Sedin Era was a much better team and it ended with two series lead chokes to an overrated Bruins team. Linden Canucks were better too and just more tears.

They have had a fairly soft schedule to my eyes. Not a ton of top teams (from last year and teams playing well this year)

They played us 3x when we were terrible. . Sj 3x. Seattle a few times. Far more weaker teams than great ones.

Yeah I just don't see this Canucks team being playoff anything. They're getting the white gloves treatment because no team in the league really has a hate on for them yet. But Petersson seems to be working on that. lol

Like I said this week their tough schedule is in Feb, March, Apr. just saying.

I'll say it again. The recent Tampa game was a real gut punch to the team. They were 8-0 going in, team played a superb game only for our goalie Fore-Skinner to F it up. The team needs a veteran goalie that they can believe in.
We had a total buy-in from the whole team for nine games. Checking, Back-tracking, sound defense, going in the dirty areas to score . Just playing their behinds off only to get deflated by their goaltending in an important ,record tying game. The team looks demoralized again. Holland needs to make a F trade quick to restore some confidence in the group.

They will for sure get wrecked in the playoffs. Although a tough schedule to end the year isn’t a bad thing necessarily. Confidence from an easy start can have you ride. I mean coming into the season having to play us 3 times quick should have been tough but we uhh, didn’t make it tough.
Either way I don’t like Vancouver but watching them, Vegas and LA being top 10 years right now just adds to the annoyance of our game

The fact that Holland has done literally nothing but firing Woodcroft is just hilariously incompetent.

I don't want another F trade. A or B maybe.

Maybe we can trade Campbell and Skinner for an Applebees and Blockbuster.
LOL. I miss the blockbuster days.

Please be kind and rewind

This team needs a shakeup immediately. Thing is, they could win two in a row and Holland will say they are evaluating biweekly. Buy some time

Campbells Skinjob with added fat soup.


Could be a hard sell.

You just know Vasilevsky, Bobrovsky and Sorokin are texting Shesterkin to not be the one to let the Russian goalie win-streak end against the Oilers in a few nights.

This is the same team as 2006 oilers. Barely made the playoffs and went game 7 of the Stanley cup. But we need uncle Kenny to wake up and go get f***ing goalie.

Would be nice if McDavid remembered that he can score near a goal a game if he puts his mind to it. He passed on way too many shots yet again. When nothing is going, him and Bouch are our cheat codes for offense. He needs to shoot more.
