Having lost the first seven games, the Canucks will probably win like 4 of the next 5 and renew "optimisim" that the season hasn't already been torpedoed by the 0-5-2 start.

I dont want to say its a guaranteed win because after awhile, losing streaks take on a life of their own..In everybody's heads..players and fans.

Hopefully they catch a break tomorrow...

The way they just collapsed after the 2nd Canes goal was glaring.

They'd hung in the game up until that point and it just seemed like the team slumped their shoulders and knew the game was over. Guys stopped moving, (unless it was to run into each other.)

This losing streak is in their heads, deep in their heads.

I want them to win because tanking this season would be catastrophic to a pretty good group of young players but I also want them to lose because Bedard, Michkov, Fantilli, and Carlssson are all franchise players.

Is it the gamblers fallacy to think the Canucks will win?

It absolutely is, Seattle looks decent but their goalies can't stop a beach ball. But, with our offense, they shouldn't have too much trouble.

Krakens, Penguins, Devils and Ducks.

I wouldn't at this point say confidently that yeah they are toast for the next four games, but tying the 11 loss season opener streak based on what we see thus far seems unnervingly plausible.

As for Aquaman, well...he's the only one who'll stroke his pathetic ego right now, no?

Quest For Fire (ings?)

Looking to torch the Kraken and make some sushi.

Last game outshot more than 2 to 1 and only 3 shots in the 3rd but considered better even with a loss.
So not being outshot 2 to 1 and getting 4 shots in the 3rd is progress right?

Baby steps.

We're going to win. I think Demko looked a bit better in the last game against arguably the best team we've faced, and he gets some more off time to work with Clark this next week or so.

That's assuming he starts Thursday instead of Friday
