[4thlinegrinders]

took about 15 minutes to finally show up. btw how many times has garrison shot wide?

 

[Canucks LB]

Nope. We're the San Jose sharks

Very good comparison

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Empty net? Why isn't Ebbett out there?!?!

 

[thepuckmonster]

I'm glad I pre-emptively turned off my television so that I don't throw my mug at AV's smug ass face.

 

[Bleach Clean]

The opinion can be shared all people want, but the results disagree.

The results don't provide a causal relationship, not matter how much you want it to. Period.

 

[me2]

Let's be fair, guys - after 2011's SCF we were all like "omgz we need tough guys to protect the Sedins no more soft players"

Careful what you wish for.

lol the short term memories.

 

[LiquidSnake]

Troll move here by Yeo. Lol

True. Posters were begging for more size, grit and toughness.

I don't disagree with going towards more size and toughness, but if we go in that direction we need to let the guys play big and tough. What makes Boston so good is they goon it up. It's dirty and cheap sure, but it's successful. Kinda like the Broadstreet Bullies in the 70's. We don't play that game.

 

[King of Anarchy]

Is it too much to ask for a roster of Jannik Hansen's? *inb4 everyone responds that we'd be the lowest scoring team in the league*

I love how the sedins get badly slashed, ragtaged in front of the net and the refs allow it now.

Reputation also hurt the canucks.

The sedins have never gotten the respect and benefit of the doubt that they deserve from the refs. It's a bunch of ********. So sick of the refs in this league.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

At this point, who cares? Refs rarely call last minute calls for just one team.

 

[Grub]

I don't understand why people are saying we are over the hill.

We're NOT!

The Sedins are still getting a point a game even though the team is struggling, we still have Burrows at his prime... We still have Hamhuis, Edler who was the core and still at their primes..

Not only that we still have Higgins, Lappiere, Hansen ALL PLAYERs that contributed to that years run.

All this team needs is a SHAKE UP.

I don't feel we're on the decline and I DON'T WANT to be on the decline. We need a new coach who can get this team going...

Let's face it folks you look at Edler and Hamhuis they are struggling... but I know they will get it together. FIRE VIGNEAULT! Trade one of the goalies, whatever you do SHAKE THINGS UP. Everyone is just to complacent right now.

 

[John Bender*]

I haven't seen a lack effort and energy in a Canucks team since the last year of Crawfords era. Every team has injuries they need to overcome but those are not excuses. This team has bigger issues. The team is broken.

They do look a lot like the team that failed to make the playoffs in Crawfords last year. Good indication that a coaching change is needed.

Watch Gilly promote Bowness.

 

[KillerWhale]

lol at Hansen stripping Heatley of the puck with no stick

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Garrison needs to move in closer to the net if he is gonna score.

 

[13 others]

zzzzzzzzz we suck now. Get used to it.

 

[Big Naissak]

meh, a good effort, I'm not even mad at this game.

I have never seen you mad after a loss.

 

[Tifosi]

sell sell sell

 

[Finkle is Einhorn]

I can't wait for nothing to happen after this loss!

 

[Lonny Bohonos]

So radio vancouver spends the last week whining as much as possible about how Garrisons not on the PP etc. There you have it.

 

[deadinthewater]

Ummmm guys, the Edmonton Oilers are 4 pts behind us with the same number of games played....

As mentioned, we've only won 5 of our last 16 games.

 

[Saturated Fats]

We just don't have the horses, fellas. We're the very definition of a one-line team.

 

[Snatcher Demko]

It's more the coaching than the personnel. This team has more depth than the 2011 group, on paper anyway, and they should still be better than this, even with the injuries.

Garbage.

Garrison on the PP = first PP goal in a fortnight.
