GDT: GAME #5 - Shark E. Cheese's - Canucks vs. Sharks - 7:00 p.m, SNET-VAN (not pacific)

[canucksfan]

Not that their depth is great, but they are missing 3 top 9 forwards. And, if I'm not mistaken, santorelli was an off season signing, no?

Burrows yes, Kassian borderline but Jordan is not a top 9 forward IMO. He hasn't proven anything. Improvement over Dalpy though.

 

[Soups On]

This team is so static... They're always standing still and this makes them late to the play, hence why they lose every freaking battle against the boards. Serious lack of fire and it shows against a competitive team like the Sharks. Torts better give these guys a tongue lashing and get their heads in gear.

I miss 2010-2011

 

[Addison Rae]

Get rid of Bieksa and Hamhuis especially Bieksa, I can't stand his laziness.

Hmm give away our best D-Man after 5 bad games? Seems legit.

 

[Oignon Saute]

Our break-outs are horrendous. No, sorry, we're not even attempting to break-out, the defense just chips it to centre and the Sharks dump it in again. Make a play, someone!

 

[ddawg1950]

We are being out skated, out hit and out scored.

SJ competes for every puck and they have won those battles 95% ofthe time tonight.

 

[Ozone]

uh oh...

 

[Hammer79]

Ugh, cue the EN goal.

 

[Bleach Clean]

No urgency from the team. 5 shots in a period when you're down 3-1 is horrible.

Is it urgency? Or, simply no confidence in what they are doing? They've tried hard to crest pressure but nothing is sustained. Sharks are playing calm and with good spacing. Very difficult for the Canucks to do much of anything.

 

[Hammer Time]

We needed the Sharks go offside to get an offensive zone faceoff.

Pull the goalie?

 

[timw33]

Backend misses the poise and rushing ability of Ehrhoff.

Man, I'd trade one of our top 4 to bring in a top 6 forward at this point. Corrado can fill the void.

 

[canucksfan]

They can't even do anything with an extra man.

 

[Hammer79]

We can't even control possession 6 on 5.

 

[Mutagenesis]

LOL this team.

 

[David71]

****k

 

[King of Anarchy]

Look on the bright side, peeps. It's 2:04 away from being over.

 

[EpochLink]

[Oddity]

All of them have NTC.

 

[pahlsson]

brutal

 

[Bleach Clean]

Hate u Burns.

 

[BoHorvatFan]

Well it sucks when you look both smaller and slower than another team. But oh well, the Sharks are just better.

 

[mrmyheadhurts]

Say what you want about the Canucks, the organist has been killing it tonight!

 

[Ozone]

Well.....that was two and a half hours of my life I'll never get back.

Incredibly frustrating game to watch.

 

[Grumbler]

why the **** would you put bieksa out on the empty netter, you know hes not ****ing skating. omfg what a horrible game I am gone. **** this. Shouldn't have stayed up for this **** from the D.

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Don't know what game your watching but the effort is there... we just have to many grinders on this team...

Need more offensive weapon something Mike Gillis has failed to provide.

Thats all I would keep. Bieksa just doesn't go well with anyone except Hamhuis and is lazy on the puck. They should be out working the Sharks.
