Not a 1st/2nd round exit.

Kesler probably can get us secured into the post season.
But he's just one player... unless he goes back to "41 Goal" mode,
even him alone's not going to help us get into a deep run. Not with the current supporting roster.

fuck it, none of our prospects can develop with this piece of shit management.
Let's call up Jensen too. So he can go play some 4th line minutes.

No GM in the league would sign/pay Perry for Crosby money unless they're straight-up retarded, period.
We are in a new CBA, with 7 year max contracts and 8 if you resign with your team. Big name stars are going to make their money and players will begin eclipsing Crosby and Ovie's benchmarks. Malkin will be the first it looks like.

Crosby's hit is only 8.7M right now because its a long term 12 year deal. In a shorter 6-8 year deal it would be up at 10M pretty easy.

We'll see when Malkin gets his extension/new contract, would not be surprised if it was at 10+M/yr from whoever he signs with.

That made me LOL, especially with Booth out now (not that he did anything healthy). Wow, this team is in serious jeopardy with the injuries.

with the way they're playing, i can see them lose all 4...

^^ Can't disagree with most of what ya'll said but the only players worthy of 9/10mil+/yr would be Malkin or Crosby and maybe Stamkos. Anybody else doesn't even come close.

Any GM in the league would sign them in a heartbeat for that amount, can't say the same for Perry or Getzlaf.

The only positive, team showed no signs of quitting on AV

whatever the case may be, who survives trade deadline? Goalie? Ballard? AV?

MG is not the issue.

AV is on thin ice but I don't think a coaching change will happen in a shortened season. If the Canucks don't make it past 2nd round I'm pretty sure he's out of here.

The season isn't a write off yet, but if the Canucks don't pull it together quickly here, I have a feeling the 2013-2014 team photo will have some unfamiliar faces.

This season is just like the 2005-06 season. That team, led by the WCE, struggled down the stretch and missed the playoffs which resulted in the Sedin/Luongo/AV era.

If the team misses the playoffs, AV is gone at the end of the year. But, who's waiting in the wings to lead the team?

Face it, the future looks disgusting, when you are consistently this good, and the scouting is questionable, prepare for a shitty 10 years

San Jose and Phoenix are just 2 points back, and with wins tomorrow, they could leapfrog in front of us, putting us down to 9th.

Sedin - Sedin - Burr
Hansen - Ebbet - Raymond
Higgins - Schroeder - Weise
Pinizotto - Lapierre - Sestito

Is that honestly a fucking joke? It's like we have a top 3, and bottom 9. Hansen and Raymond are playing great this year, but they're not second liners. Don't even get me started on Ebbet. The players can only do so much.. especially if they're not that skilled. Something has got to change.
Hank - 1st line center
Ebbet, Schroeder, Lappy - 4th line centers

No wonder we only won 30% of the face-offs today
I think there comes a point where the players look to MG and just ask for some support and help.......
