I'm surprised the stadium is so packed still.
these suits should be entertaining their business guys elsewhere. Why talk business when the mood is shit and a team is consistently losing?

Go to a steakhouse and the peelers.

This sums up my experience of watching this team play in January:


:fuuuuu::fulloffuck::facepalm:

C'mon Toews, save that for the Olympics haha. I don't know why Burr is still on the PP right now, the guy is pretty much useless.

rsx 01-29-2014 09:01 PM

ugh

PiuYi 01-29-2014 09:07 PM

don't know why they took sestito off the PP, thought that experiment was working fairly well

dL 01-29-2014 09:12 PM

Our top players. Facepalm.

I dont know what's worst, barely making the playoffs and getting beat 0-4 or not making the playoffs and try to move up in the draft and pick up a nhl ready prospect.

If that's the case, that's really too bad then.
Canuck fans should be disgusted enough to toss them.

At this point, I'd rather not make the playoffs. The only thing that will benefit is the pocketbooks of the Aquilinis for those two home games.

Hondaracer 01-29-2014 09:55 PM

not making the playoffs would be best

i have zero desire to go to any games anymore. Went to Tampa this year in hopes of seeing Stamkos and luckilly got to see Crosby with the pens

just go to see other teams/players now

AzNightmare 01-29-2014 10:13 PM

I'm just looking for the Olympics now.
If team Canada chokes...

Need this guy. Leon Draisaitl profile - ???? ????????? ??????? - Eurohockey.com

We don't need THIS guy. We need a new CORE.

Mike Oxbig 01-29-2014 10:17 PM

THIS guy will be part of our new CORE

dbaz 01-29-2014 11:12 PM

none of the players in this draft have the chance of making the league next year except for maybe ekblad. canucks will probably end up picking in the 12-18 spot. im hoping they get nylander.

Infiniti 01-29-2014 11:37 PM

This team is stale. Time to take the horse out back.

PiuYi 01-29-2014 11:40 PM

to be fair, we were missing henrik, santo, and tanev.... not saying we would have won with them, but those are pretty big pieces out of the lineup

in all seriousness theres really only 2 ways to look at it.

1. the team doesnt have the depth, there's a new coach/system, and injuries to key players = team not able to get into sync or have personnel to do it

2. their older players are incapable of producing at their previous level, and need to have their expectations changed and others brought in to replace the place they played before.

last 2 years i thought the team wasnt deep enough, and that the lockout last year really hurt their chemistry. this year i cant really decide between the 2, but still lean towards the first. i expect next year to be the season that actually determines which one it is. yet trading the core is not really needed as sedins and burrows can be shifted down to places they played earlier in their career. the talent can be there in 2 years, especially if horvat, and kassian keep developing like they currently are.

kassian - kesler - shinkaruk ... or... kassian - horvat - kesler etc(yea i doubt kassian is a 1st line winger in 2 years but should be a top 6 producer)
higgins - horvat - gaunce .........sedin - sedin - burrows
sedin - sedin - burrows.........higgins - ? - hansen
hansen - ? - higgins .........archibald - lain - gaunce

or they could trade future away this year and royally fuck up when they get bounced.

I know what you're saying, but I don't really buy the injury excuse anymore.

Good teams overcome injuries. Heck, IIRC when we were ripping it up (In Henrik's MVP year), didn't we miss Daniel for a handful of games. Same thing too with other great teams.

Pens can win with Crosby out. Hawks still managed I think when Toews was out. One or two key guys shouldn't sink a team like this. Feels like there is something more fundamentally wrong with the team other than the absence of a guy or two.

Also, there's the fact that we've been on a downward spiral well before Henrik's, Santo, Tanev's injuries.

Not really racist! 01-30-2014 08:50 AM

typical injury excuses ITT

but anyhow... this only gets worse if Lu comes back from winning gold and asks for a trade, now that would cue the madness
