I can't believe we're 8-1-1 in our last 10 and we're still at the bottom of the Pacific...

If the Canucks are fighting for a wild card spot near the end of the season, I think everyone would be happy after the way the season started. I don't think the players could have dealt with another shit season.

The group has belief and confidence and you can tell on the ice they are fighting for one another. If they continue this way and make it into the playoffs that would be amazing

-looks like a second round of Covid for the team.
First, Petey tested positive yesterday.
Chiasson has Covid too as announced today. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article...tive-covid-19/

Chiasson testing positive is a good thing. Petey is also getting a second test done since they think its a false positive.

Hmmm ... for financial reasons?
Canucks-Senators game likely to be postponed due to capacity limits. | |

They have postponed every single home game since last yr. Its starting to become a trend. Have a feeling their ticket sales will go down. Its too unpredictable at this point.

I heard on the Steve Dangle Podcast that the Leafs lose $3 million every home game without fans. Postponing until a later date makes sense, but they will quickly get into that situation where regular season games are being played during the playoffs or the playoffs end in the middle of the summer again.

Don't the players also lose money if there's no fan attendance?
Pretty sure I read it somewhere

Pretty sure I read it somewhere | Correct. Players escrow comes from ticket sales at the games.
The NHL players are supposedly $1.2B as in Billion in debt from the games with no fans and other things.
Another factor is games that are supposed to be on TV. HNIC, NBC, ESPN etc.
But I agree, from hockey point of view, they should just play because later in the year we are going to see 3 games in 4 nights situations to make up missed games.
That or they just shorten the season if that is an option.

Nobody is getting ahead in this situation. Players and owners losing money, fans losing interest, frustrated players, TV stations not getting views. Meanwhile, it looks like the arenas are full in the States?

so lets say Petey doesnt get back to himself this year and this funk continues on for all of next year. Do you look at trading him so we can resign all the others including Miller or do you hope he pulls a MacKinnon. It was only his 5th year in the league where he really took off

It’s not worth it to give up on him so quickly unless it’s a really good return.
Much rather trade Pearson to use his cap space for Miller.

Wow, Hagelin scored on his own empty net during a delayed penalty passing it back when the Caps were up 2-0 and they just lost 2-3 in the shootout.
