The deleting of the original GDT set the negative tone that most likely caused this brutal loss. Inexcusable

When the team is good...alcohol consumption goes down.
When the team is bad...it goes up.
Big alcohol has gotten to Aquilini and management. The front office is INTENTIONALLY sucking to ensure we crave the devils water!
Missed game good reason girlfriend cancer and won't win need nucks to be better and ill be back soon .

What waste of time, money and effort.
We are a very very bad team who occasionally play well. This is not the same team as last year. Rest who needs to be rested. Surgery for whoever needs surgery. Trade who needs to be traded and try to build on the fly like the Caps.
This core is shot.

This core is shot.
So here is my theory.

When the team is bad...it goes up.

This one's almost entirely on the coaching staff and their repeated stupid decisions.
Haven't seen anything whatsoever out of Foote or Gonchar to indicate they're not dinosaurs.
Nothing has changed, same exact system, same players making the exact same mistakes.
Still chasing hits in the neutral zone and behind the net, passes to nobody or up the middle.
What do they do in practice and the video room?
What exactly is being said to juulsen and Myers where no improvements happen week to week, month to month...?

It also really blows how bad soucy has become.
This team might end up being the one that needs to sell.

That sure was something. Hronek wondering why the f*** he left Abby.
Hilariously predictable after the performance vs the Leafs, these guys haven't shown an iota of consistency at any point this entire season.
Can only hope a beat down like this pisses them off enough to spark something, but it's hard to have any faith in that happening.

Funny. This board was kinda upbeat on Sat - sun. Amazing how fast what little of the band wagon was left falls to pieces.
Screw it. It's one game. Against a strong team. So it goes. Of course, a bunch of tough ones coming up in LA, Oil twice and WA. and Buff.

This is the lowest PPG season for Pettersson. Granted, he's coming off injury, but still, this is terrible production.
Miller too is on pace for 72 points. He hasn't put up numbers like this since 2018-19.
Beyond them, the entire team is so static and lifeless on offense. It's too controlled.
Even if Lekkerimaki gets hit clean, you're down 5, grab a jersey. Go to war for the teammate beside you. You're going to lose anyway.
Gutless all around.

The problem is, they can't play run and gun when half the defensemen aren't able to make a breakout pass to save their lives. We desperately need puck movers, but instead, we got a bunch of trees with no awareness. And Soucy forgetting how to play hockey.
4th time this ones no win and thanks cancer f..kin sucks
I got home from work around 5:20 and had to make a decision: Have a nap or watch the 1st period. I went for nap, one of my best decisions of the year so far

In what universe is this group even remotely built for run and gun hockey?

Have to consider that the Jets are are excellent, first game back for Hronek, end of an extended road trip where you flying all over North America, goal tending not up to par, etc... But there has to be real concern. Team just can't produce offense. And its not just the system. It's more that the players expected to produce offense can't, and haven't for a good while.
Good
Might make a case for Sherwood. at least in the first two periods his hustle was getting team some ozone time and he was good on the pk. Also Hoglander had some ok minutes and, unbelieveably, he actually scored. Otherwise, pretty much overly-boiled greul.
Bad
Lankanin - did make some saves to prevent it from going into double figures but also contributed to the early melt down.
Forbert- Myers - looked like early that the Forbert - Myers duo might work but that illusion quickly went up in smoke. Forbert just got continuously beat wide (or through the middle, for that matter), and that started Myers trying to cover over and then get playing out of control. Reminded me of the Benning era when they lined up Myers with AHLers, and often less than that, and Myers floundered trying to do too much.
Soucy - mediocre at best but how do you succeed when playing with Juulsen?
Miller - couple of spurts but ended in nothing. Puck movement was again overly hasty and rarely good. Like Pettersson sort of there, but sort of not, as well
Particulary Bad
Boeser - got off a couple of outside shots (that were never going to score) but other than that old lead boots was again useless. Can't be traded fast enough.
Juulsen - "The Jewel" needs to go and he needs to go fast. Please be somehow free of this player. If there is any ultimatum condemnation of present Canuck management is the amount of game time this player gets. Taken to falling down in the middle of the play of late. That compliments the general confusion in which he plays and the ham-fisted way he handles the puck.
Others
Heinen -couple of defensive plays but overall did little. Guy has the capacity (some might even say skill) to fade so far into the wood work that little can be blamed on him. Ergo he stays in the lineup.
Hughes - not his best game but most of the meaningful chances were a result of his efforts. Appears, at this time, the only thing dividing the team from being an absolute bottom feeder.
Hronek - not bad for this first game back. HIs puck movement from the back is a complete step up from what we seen lately from most of the back end.
Lekkermaki - think it is mindless to be playing him on the 4th line. Only way he is going to get the service he needs is to play higher in the lineup. I guess you could rebut this by saying that neither Miller or Pettersson could provide much of this anyhow ATM. Lekkermaki does seem to be hanging in the play decently.
Road ahead looks difficult and potentially disastrous and if there isn't some significant upturn in play by the break for the 4 nations tournament, then this team needs to get out the for sale signs and hang them around the necks of quite a few players.

Bruce had them running and gunning with Hughes, OEL, Myers, Hunt, Schenn, Burroughs, Hamonic. That defence was sad AF.
