No, it's the GM's fault for hiring these players
Blame the GM

when the ship is sinking of course someone is to blame. right now its pretty obvious that the players shit the bed here but there's nothing wrong to examine from the top down as well and i think its completely fair to criticize MG/AV.

Fuck, this sucks.

I really liked what Gillis has done since he got here but his recent moves have sucked - stuff like not solving the Luongo issue, keeping Ballard and his 4.2m in the press box, and not getting another 6/7th defenseman at the deadline (I mean come on, anyone would have been better than Barker - he got waived by an AHL team!).

This team is still good enough to get into the playoffs but not good enough to win it all. IMO that's the worst position to be in. You can't have 12.2m in the Sedins not show up in the playoffs every single year. I hope they go for a full-on rebuild.

It seems like everyone wants to blame everyone BUT the players though. They just can't get it done... is it the coaches fault? GM? Maybe, but why not look at the actual players for once?

Like I said before, if they weren't in the retard division, they would probably not even be in the playoffs this year. They have benefited from being in the retard division for the last 3-4 seasons, which is why those presidents trophies are essentially meaningless. And it's especially the case in this shortened season where you play your division even more than usual.

lol, was watching the game with a couple buddies at a restaurant, left after the 2nd period as we pretty much knew the rest wouldn't be worth watching. Seriously, AV's got to go.

Canucks need to some do something about the Sedin's... Philly traded Richards and Carter during their prime.

Higgins at 2.5 is just fine.

And Philly missed the playoffs.

So... :stfu:

Who should the Canucks hire as the new head coach?

Lindy Ruff? Guy Boucher?

AV better be gone after this, total bullshit if they decided to keep him.

I would agree with this.

absolutely! i do agree its on the players for failing the past couple of years. however, if the players sucking is the main problem, they certainly can't trade themselves. regardless, there will be a change this year and its always going to be the coach first. i would be surprised if AV is still here next year.

also, the NW division may be retarded but in the president trophy years, the canucks do have an excellent record against the central and pacific divisions too.

This team is fucking done, there's like no accountability

Down 0 - 2 and and we're "right there" and "still in it" when we're clearly playing like shit okay.

They talk so much about how they know what to do and nothing truly happens

from first 3 games of stats.. Canucks would need to score at least 4 goals to win a game against the sharks...but we only have 5 goals total in 3 games..LOL

"it is what it is" - av

WTF. Own up you sack of turd.

Mike Oxbig 05-05-2013 09:25 PM

trade Sedin's to ANA for Ryan & Palmieri, Brian Burke approves!

O ok

The Sedins/Luongo era of Canucks hockey is over. It was a lot of fun, but now, it's time to clean house.

New GM, new coach, sell whatever assets are marketable. All of it. 2-3 years of being in the tank will help restock the cupboard.
