GDT: GM 29 | Vancouver Canucks vs. Boston Bruins | Dec 14 | 7:00PM PST | SNET

[Just A Bit Outside]

Have them play in Abby until they fix their shit at home.

Baby Nucks can play at Rogers.

 

[The Optimist]

Hard to watch this one.

 

[EpochLink]

Not gonna blame Demko for this game, he's trying out there.

 

[Jay26]

How long do we have to keep pretending that this is normal? That "this is just how this team plays"" (re: the stretches of getting out shot badly and not getting many shots on net in games, period)? The Canucks are currently 4th last in shots per game, ahead of only Chicago, Detroit and Montreal. I predicted early in the season that, no matter the talent on this team, that they'd be bottom 5. We'll see where they're at by season's end but it's looking like more of the same as we saw in the second half of last season and the playoffs.

It's a feature of this group, not a big. Is it coaching? Is it the players? Who knows .... It's hard to pin down. I've never seen it from a talented team before.

The locals are getting restless

Bag skate these lazy f..cks tomorrow till they puke

 

[VanJack]

One of their best games of the season, followed by what looks to be one of their worst--at least so far.

A team with post-season aspirations would never have been forced to re-sign a guy like Myers and give him three more years. But that's just the reality of the Canucks blueline.

 

[Killer Orcas]

Sad we can't even get up for a game against Bruins and that rat Marchand.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Boston's 11.25M superstar whose name starts with a P: 3 points
Vancouver's 11.6M superstar whose name starts with a P: 0 points

Now would be a great time for Pettersson help us start the comeback...

 

[EpochLink]

Show us something, anything to get us back in this game.

 

[NailsHoglander]

Boston's 11.25M superstar whose name starts with a P: 3 points
Vancouver's 11.6M superstar whose name starts with a P: 0 points

Now would be a great time for Pettersson help us start the comeback...

And 11.1% on the dot

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

At this point, I don't even care if we lose. Just show some damn life.

Pettersson is absolutely a passenger. A very talented passenger, to be sure, but a passenger. That's how he plays. His saving grace is that he's so effective defensively. That's what staves off the passenger label somewhat.

 

[Vancouver_2010]

Just comes back from work, i guess i don't have to bother watching.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

How many times have we seen this? Games over after the first period. Completely lifeless.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

I guess Blueger heard me. More of that please

This is their normal though. They played like this all last year and in the playoffs. I guess this is the system Tocchet loves - ride the PDO train and hope Demko can be Demko.

Pathetic strategy.

 

[Kryten]

Blueger with the best shift of our forwards all game

 

[EpochLink]

DO SOMETHING.

Blueger doing something

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Demko should have hugged Swayman at the ASG

 

[rypper]

If you told me that Miller, Boeser, Pettersson weren't playing tonight, I'd believe you.

 

[PG Canuck]

Blueger’s two shots there felt like a huge moral victory.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Ok Höglander, it’s been swell. Good luck in Anaheim.

 

[Zanon]

Canucks just don’t shoot enough. Plain and simple.

 

[Peen]

Blueger’s two shots there felt like a huge moral victory.

Nice shift from him and sasson
