Post-Game Talk: [GM35] Canucks lose to Kraken in OT | 4-5 | Boeser(2), Garland, & DeBrusk |. いかにぎり🍣

[Tact]

Question;

As a Canucks coach - your team is winning 4-1 with 5 mins left in the game. The other team scores a couple goals.

Wouldn’t you use your time out to get everybody focused and calm the building? We’ve lost momentum?

What would be the benefit of saving it?

 

[bbud]

Forbort, Desharnais, Myers, Brannstrom, Soucy, Juulsen

if there isn’t a move made for a dman by next game, Allvin isn’t a serious GM.

What will he trade for and a what cost Juulsen f..d up the game over than him they held up .
Make good trades from a solid position not to placate pissed off fans

 

[LemonSauceD]

Myers f***ed up. It doesn't mean he's a bad defenseman.
Demko had a shitty game. It doesn't mean he's a bad goalie.
Juulsen.... well.

Nah, Myers is a bad defenseman.

Does well 1 out of his 5 seasons which happened to be his contract year and gets awarded 3M x 3 with an NMC. He is brutal.

 

[ManVanFan]

That was fun.

 

[TruKnyte]

The sky is falling.

I'm outta here. When there's a bad game this place goes into knee-jerk panic mode.

Enjoy your evening

 

[Cancuks]

The Jim Benning era of hockey is back! Honestly, we should have seen it all coming when they doubled down on Myers.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

They've had a couple of opportunities on the waiver wire to bring in Juulsen upgrades and they just sit there. I struggle to understand it.

The Baldies really need to take the Juulsen toy away from Tocchet before he hurts himself more. Intervention is needed.

 

[ScottishCanuck]

Tocchet and Alvin are the brains for this defense. I'm tired of Tocchet already he can F!!! off

Coaching isn’t the main problem, even if I don’t like the way he deals with certain players. Firing the Jack Adams winner isn’t the answer.

Roster management is an issue. We’re far too thin on the blueline and we’ve filled the gaps with slow Dmen with low hockey IQ and poor puck-moving skills. It doesn’t work in today’s NHL.

 

[CpatainCanuck]

Not pinch and leave two Kraken in alone...?

Cover for Myers...?

This isn't rocket science, if a dman is in, a forward needs to cover!

Playing 3vs3, you have to take chances to score once and a while. The expectation is that your teammates won't miss their passes by 15 feet. You can't seriously blame Miller for that OT goal.

 

[Josepho]

Defence obviously had issues but Demko has not been nearly good enough since returning.

 

[Lat]

Myers is a guy forced into a role that he shouldn't be in. I blame Allvin and Rutherford more for not addressing the clear lack of depth in the offseason.

I can't blame Allvin/Rutherford for 2 injuries to their top 2 d-men, but we're definitely still missing a top 4 LHD.

Myers wouldn't have been getting OT time if both Hughes and Hronek were healthy.

He's also played very well for the better part of two years. He has a bad game and that's forgotten.

 

[Nuckles]

"Canucks lose a game for the first time in franchise history when leading by 3+ goals with less than 5:00 left in the 3rd period"

 

[Breakers]

Below .500 team

I mean, you have to think the head coach gets a say in roster management no?

 

[bh53]

Not pinch and leave two Kraken in alone...?

Cover for Myers...?

This isn't rocket science, if a dman is in, a forward needs to cover!

That is the expectation for 5 on 5 where the team that has possession of the puck changes every two seconds. 3 on 3 the expectation is you hold the puck until you have a solid chance, not through a blind pass to no one.

 

[bbud]

More that this defense wasn’t going to cut it long before this season started. This is just more evidence.

Did you notice who was missing ffs yes need one more solid top 4 and im sure if a sensible option was available they would take it till then have to hang on

 

[timw33]

This D core is completely irredeemable and so deeply bad that acquiring ONE top-4 D man using valuable pieces/futures is not going to fix things. Just so thoroughly bad from #3 to #7 (when everyone is healthy!).

Just really not feeling like our year with everything breaking against us.

 

[Jyrki]

I stepped away from the screen with 6 minutes left and came back just now, feels good to grab some early afternoon 2 points! Clean game everyone!

 

[racerjoe]

Just got back from a date, missed the game, and it seems neither went all that well…

 

[strattonius]

Cover for Myers...?

No not buying that blame.

If Myers makes a reasonable pass Miller has options to skate back or take the puck to the net and you know....win the game? Myers can drop back after he makes the pass.

The result of the worst pass I've seen all season is the reason Miller is caught up then ice at 3on3. It's not fair to blame that on Miller.

100%. How the defense is built after the first pairing sucks.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Sorry I had to run out when we were up 4-1

What the absolute f*** happened?

 

[SillyRabbit]

Wait what happened?!?!

I had to step out with 5 minutes remaining when we were up 4-1.

What the hell???

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Nah, Myers is a bad defenseman.

You're a bad judge of defencemen.
