f***ing hell what a brutal PK. I mean this is beyond coaching. This is players who can’t kill penalties. They can’t knock down cross ice passes. They can’t win a battle. Too slow. Just bad roster build.

They don’t have a d-man who can kill a penalty and that includes OEL. At this point you use Hughes because he has the skill to maybe knock something down. But nope, and this is where coaching does come in, we just trot out the same players over and over. Put Pettersson, Boeser, Podz, Hughes etc out there. What’s the worst that can happen? They get scored on?

There it is. Miller shouldve just gone and got a stick

Miller of 2019-20 would have sprawled out and used any functioning limb to get the puck out. 2021 Miller was like "nah, lets try a weak kick."

Rightfully so, this team does not give a single f***.

This team is so badly coach. Avs always know where to go and the Canucks are clueless and a step slower everywhere. The PK is the worst I’ve ever seen in my years of watching which include teams intentionally tanking teams. How is it possible to allow so many cross crease pass and leave guys open and not clearing the net during rebound. Might as well be a 5on1

Staying on the ice with a broken stick on the PK is the single dumbest thing in hockey right now.

You can be on a 5-on-3 for like 5 seconds while you run to the bench or indefinitely while you stand there uselessly.

At least during the 1st/3rd when your bench is right there.

If the radio is anything to go by, Aquilini thinks it's mostly only online that fans are unhappy with this team.

Let's see what happens with the crowd tonight after giving up another goal on the pk.

I don't Juho Lammikko's pk % when he is on the ice but its gotta be below 50%. He is on the ice every PP goal. He can't win draws and he's slow as molasses and can't block lanes. Green loves him on the PK like he loves Pearson on the top 6.
