slumlords love duct tape and paint

Usually it's actually paint, and a good caulking.

 

[drax0s]

It's the little things...

 

[mathonwy]

Not playing Myers will help this team so much.

 

[sting101]

.871 Demko lol

 

[valkynax]

unfinished is in their pursuit

 

[me2]

Welp

I'm just going to post this again so you learn

I didn't didn't 1 minute of my life making it for nothing.

Not sure what it is with this team, only player always comes out of the gate looking like they shouldn’t make the echl team… petey last year and demko+++ this year. Just terrible. Burn it down please I’m sick of watching these guys and I’m quite sure they’re all sick of playing with each other at this point.

But from our Willie D and Tortorella days, we have most talent on this current roster ! (I’m aware to the Sedins and such, but they were on the decline)

I don’t get it.I feel we need to “lose” a trade or two and try desperately to get an adequate top 4 defender.

a large issue is roster construction

the only players that have been targeted for years have been soft skill, one dimensional offensive types. any other type of skill people bring along with them is happenstance

this roster has never been so poorly put together in terms of the mix necessary to properly compete

this canucks team is a dead ringer for one slapped together on an ea sports game, focused only on getting to that next glitch goal as soon as possible

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

I’m actually surprised at the amount you all seem to adore Boudreau. He’s a good regular season coach that is noted for his lack of structure. Had a poor camp and has consistently been dressing suboptimal lineups at every opportunity.

While I do think Bruce is a decent coach. His resume is hilariously bloated by having Ovie in his prime. Not to mention Green when he was basically a forward on defense. Put him on a less offensive team that can't just force wins and he wouldn't have nearly the same success.

 

[Zippgunn]

I hope they get bought by a real good, benevolent billionaire instead. You know, the type who really have the best interests of the people at heart.

Sadly, those people don't exist...

Sadly, those people don't exist...

If they did they wouldn't be spending a billion dollars on personal toy like a hockey franchise.

 

[I Hart Conor Garland]

Yuppppppppppppp

 

[TruGr1t]

Bedard won't be the answer either.. This team needs a complete culture change that focuses on defense

I mean, all they really need to do is gut this core of players, which has often and repeatedly proven to not have what it takes to win consistently. Everything else is rather meaningless at this point. It appears we’ve amassed a collection of complementary pieces, some of them quite high end, but lack the glue to hold anything together.

Interesting. I appreciate the thoughtful answer.

I don’t agree entirely. However, I have adopted some new thoughts about this team

 

[geebaan]

650 saying there’s no chance of a rebuild.

I’ll just never get why not.

Miller, OEL, Boeser, Myers.

The tank commanders don't want to tank. We are screwed

It has to be a major shake up, at the very least.

Who cares what you call it? Get a large portion of these players the Hell out of town. Preferably yesterday.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Took it right between the cheeks which appears their preference lately

 

[timw33]

This season just feels like a re-run at this point.

We've all seen this one before. Maybe try doing something completely different.

 

[EpochLink]

This team is utter pathetic, cannot remember an unlikable team like this. Players don’t care, coaches don’t care, management clearly see shit in ice.

 

[CanucksSayEh]

Demko continues to be outplayed by every goalie he faces, even his own backup. 4g on less than 30 shots..

Hughes would win the Norris if he had even a single mean bone in his body. Just plays too nice, no edge, all the skills in the world.

 

[M2Beezy]

I no longer care when we lose to the Leafs or Bruins, like not a flinch, not a nothing... 8 years ago i would have been angry about it. Also made no effort to watch the game today, and didnt care that i missed most of it yesterday. I use to really like watching the games and complaining about the losing... Now meh, just sarcasm about the losing is about it...

Clearly you forgot to look at his winning % with the Ducks and Wild..
