Post-Game Talk: [GM34] Canucks lost to Senators | 4-5 OT | Boeser(2), Hughes, & DeBrusk | We Suck In OT

Myers and desharnais and forbort


Embarrassing offseason decisions from this management

You sign guys like that if you’re San Jose

One of em will be gone after the trade freeze

We stole a point there. That was ****ing putrid beyond Hughes & PDG. That was a classic Miller game: all offense and no defense.

We've got 1 defender and then we've got 5 defenders who barely deserve more than bottom pairing minutes. The shift shortly after we tied up at 4-4 summed it up, we were actually able to generate a forecheck turnover which allowed for Pettersson & Garland to get to work, and so they set up a zone entry, so they start throwing the puck around, looking for a high quality chance etc etc. And then the puck made it's way to the blue-line which I think was Desharnais and (definitely) Forbort. So Desharnais goes to pass it to Forbort, and blows the pass and Forbort isn't able to fix things up and the zone entry ends.

I don't know how the **** we ever score goals when Hughes isn't on the ice. I mean, I know we barely create anything, but man, that was a ****ing awful display



I don't know how the hell we make a trade to fix this, because obviously it can't be a rental D. We can't blow more assets on rentals because we'll be in the exact same spot this time next year. So if we can't get a D with term/term control, don't ****ing bother.

Out of a playoff spot and I doubt we will be in one for the rest of the year. This core is f***ing rotten.

Toss Heinen on that list too, albeit for different reasons. I don't mind him as a player but spending 2M on a luxury instead of shopping for a better defenseman was a really boneheaded decision. Even Myers I would be fine with... if he's our 5th.

I just can't comprehend how they looked at this defense, even on paper, and thought, "Yep. That's Stanley Cup worthy."

And if their thought process was, "Eh, we'll fix it mid season with a trade." That's... a really stupid philosophy because now every team in the league wants to rip us off.

 

[Binder]

somehow this team is tied for 4th in the league for fewest regulation losses lol

 

[Kryten]

Another thing, have we won with these shitty jerseys on even once?

You would have to ask Vector

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Literally the difference between the Edmonton Oilers and the Vancouver Canucks in the standings is 3 on 3 overtime

Yeah but unfortunately ….. overtime counts.

 

[brock hughes007]

You know what guys, I enjoyed the game, we had some drama, the referees were terrible, the fans were into the game, lots of goals, some nice speed, some nice hockey, it was fun

Rick Tocchet???

Only thing I can think of is they want to use this season as transition before players like Willander and Pedey are ready?

Although at this point it looks more like wishful thinking than anything else.

idk but they gotta go. it's a stupid gimmick that's run its course lol

the canucks should have blue and green jerseys

k, seeya next season and enjoy your denny's

Yeah it's the jersey's fault.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Hopefully we can stop hearing all this bullshit “contender” talk. I never wanna hear that word again. We aren’t even a playoff team lol.

 

[potatowejj]

Hughes needs to demand a trade.

I can't stand watching him dealing with this shit anymore.

f*** that. Get rid of the problem (Miller), not the solution.

 

[wavaxa2]

Dropping that S bomb in the press conference.

 

[NoShowWilly]

Yeah it's the jersey's fault.

Looks like we have the numbers. Down with the skate!

 

[Zombotron]

Yeah it's the jersey's fault.

it's because they're not wearing the salmon skate, the objectively greatest uniform in team history

 

[LemonSauceD]

I think at this point you have to consider trading one of Pettersson/Miller and hope you can get several great pieces that can potentially bolster the line up.

 

[xtr3m]

Wow Petey just said "people will make s* up" and then walked off. To be honest I don't mind it.

 

[EpochLink]

So is Miller the problem? What’s going on here

 

[PavelBure10]

Petey walking away from reporters regarding Miller rift.

 

[Kryten]

Oh gawd no

I blame Dhaliwal honestly, that guy just bringing up drama so he can be a vocal point of the drama.

f*** that guy

 

[SillyRabbit]

Wow Petey just said "people will make s* up" and then walked off. To be honest I don't mind it.

Hughes and Tocchet admitted to it and Pettersson is saying it's not true?

 

[Huggy43]

Bieksa saying there’s select members in Vancouver media who are out to get Pettersson.

Wonder if Brough will comeback from vacation to throw a fit? lol
