out of pure boredom, I looked up stats on the Canucks so far this season
Boeser is -26 lol
Myers -19
Kane - 16
Everyone else between -16 and 0
Only 3 players are on the plus side
Raty +3 (but somehow in the dog house with Foote?)
Hronek +2
O'Connor +1
I have to give props to Hronek, he has stepped up a lot since the trade. I seriously don't know how he's managed to be +2 on this shit show of a season.

Hronek and O’Connor are the only 2 players worth watching LC regularly notice their contributions.
Unfortunately in the case of DOC that is not a compliment when you say he’s a teams best and most consistent forward. Yikes.

Watch the Canucks get shut out by one of the worst statistical goalies in the league right now.

Can we just make it easier for tanking. Get Foote to do the famous white towel on the hockey stick before each game. And shut everybody down for the year. Lol

Came across a clip of that game, the Wild let in 2 goals within 8 seconds of each other to end the 1st period. They were booed off the ice lol. Tanner Pearson scored the first one after battling with Quinn. Ha!

Watch the highlights of the Canucks and Blue jackets. 1st period at 3:33 of the clip EP40 skates behind the net and he almost PK. Like he lost his balance or his knee gives out. I have seen him do crossovers and then out of nowhere he bails.

Excellent tank by the boys last night, hopefully a sign of more tanking to come.

Marcus Pettersson is the tank commander now boys… holy shit it’s like the guy completely forgot how to play hockey.
Foote better not scratch him, he was 100% directly responsible for 2 of the goals last night. Couldn’t handle Marchenko and then that awful pinch that led to a 3 on 1

I am guessing players are on board with the tank?
Canucks are probably sandbagging it at this point lol.
Again feb is usually season ticket renewal.... If you want season tickets now is the time to bargain. They will be sucking for at least a couple years.

Lot easier to 'tank' on the road ... don't have to face the boos, jersey tosses at the end of game. Once they are home, they have to put on a semblance of trying.

Can't be ashamed if you're cheering for the tank ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Save the booing, jersey tosses and paper bags for Toronto

Yes... gotta help Aquaman pay for those brand new seats!
I've been mad so many times over the past 5 years about this team. Hell, Twitter even reminded me of the how they treated Boudreau on the way out. But I've reached a point now, where I've hit a reset button in my head thanks to the pending rebuild. Honestly, it's a breath of fresh air compared to the last 15 years of hoping this team can turn it around. It's of course understandable that others are still wildly upset with this team. But when you already know this team has absolutely no chance of even sniffing the playoffs, what's the use in being upset anymore? This ain't it and it won't be it for at least a few years.
My mind is set squarely on the future.
