Post-Game Talk: Vancouver Millionaires vs. Detroit Winged Wheelers - We Still Suck

[jigsaw99]

Weise has 1 goal and 3 assists in 26 games... Cowan was better.

nothing is worse than Cowan...

 

[EpochLink]

BRB making a time machine to go back to 2011.

Heh, that was the time where I had good times with my girlfriend...now, she's gone

 

[Tiranis]

Weise has 1 goal and 3 assists in 26 games... Cowan was better.

Cowan had 1 assist in 46 games his last season here...

This all rests on the coaching staff. Has little to do with the players.

 

[Barney Gumble]

I would be laughing if I were Ballard, what a joke that he hasn't played

AV would somehow still make it his fault.

 

[timw33]

Howard was WAY better than Luongo tonight.

 

[John Bender*]

Any chance AV is fired tonight? Seriously?

 

[Zack Kassian]

we suck. that is all.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Did hrudey seriously say "AV is a brilliant coach"? Maybe in past years.

He did, and you can see my reaction. >.>

 

[John Bender*]

Howard was WAY better than Luongo tonight.

Yeah, but every goal was not Luongo's fault. There are scientific explanations as to why he could not stop any of them.

 

[4thlinegrinders]

lol @ that last second powerplay, ****in refs are padding the stats now

 

[mrmyheadhurts]

Howard outplayed Luongo big time and the Canucks had one of their worst 3rd periods, in terms of compete level, that I can remember.

That was bad... real bad.

 

[LolClarkson*]

Datsyuks name was mentioned 24 times in the third period.

 

[MikeK]

That game was terrible. I am so sick of the way things are going. I have never advocated for AV's firing but at this point a change needs to happen. This team is lifeless.

 

[Pip]

Any chance AV is fired tonight? Seriously?

nope, he has till the end of the season at least

You can give Weise all the prime ice time in the world and he would do nothing with it. I think we need to look at what our coach has to work with, what is the GM giving him? A soft defence with no powerplay QB or elite puck mover, terrible depth up front, wasted cap space on the goaltending position that could be used to upgrade another area.

I agree AV and Brown are doing a terrible job this season but it's not a well built team.

It's a little to do with the players. We have third liners trying carry a second line, a fourth liner slotted in at #3C and AHLer's on the 4th line.

 

[deadinthewater]

Datsyuks name was mentioned 24 times in the third period.

Yes, but how many times throughout the entire game?

 

[jigsaw99]

highlight of the night is when Hrudy called AV's coaching brilliant when we are down 5-2 in the 3rd. He's brilliant!!

 

[John Bender*]

we suck. that is all.

It's going to be tough for this fanbase to face the fact that the team is just not that good anymore. It's been a long time that the team has been among the best in hockey. It will be quite the transition for us all.

 

[Tiranis]

It's a little to do with the players. We have third liners trying carry a second line, a fourth liner slotted in at #3C and AHLer's on the 4th line.

There are teams with much worse rosters doing more. AV is getting paid a lot of money to be a positive contributor and right now he's not even an average one. If there's anyone not living up to their contract, it's him.

 

[Pip]

that 5 on 3 was disgraceful

 

[Jack Tripper]

Cowan had 1 assist in 46 games his last season here...

This all rests on the coaching staff. Has little to do with the players.

agreed, but the players cant get a free pass either

that third period effort was absolutely pathetic from the net out

 

[Dado]

Howard outplayed Luongo big time...

He really didn't have all that much to do, TBH.

 

[nekyvGkOPaiWICTscLl6]

that 5 on 3 was disgraceful

Everything that game was disgraceful.

 

[EpochLink]

AV should do all of us better...resign.
