[kristianhay]

Perspective kids.

This sort of one game meltdown has happened to EVERY Stanley Cup Champion in recent memory...a bad defensive breakdown to wake them up. Look at the history...



2010-Hawks lose 2 out of first 3 games, each 4-1 to Nashville

2009-Pittsburgh lost 6-3 to Philly

2008-Detroit lost 5-3 to Nashville and let them comeback to tie the series 2-2.

2007-Anaheim lost 4-1 to Minnesota in game 4. Series went to 3-1 and Anaheim wrapped it up after.

2006-Montreal beat Carolina 6-1 and 6-5. 'Canes come back to win series and the cup.

2004-Tampa gets shut out 3-0 by the Islanders.

2003-Almost exactly the same situation as this series, Bruins are down 3-0 and beat the Devils 5-1 in game 4. Jersey wins in 5.

2002-Red Wings lose 5-2 in game 2 and go down 2-0 to Vancouver, and win the series in 6.




In other words, relax...Don't jump off the bandwagon just yet.


Part of hockey is how you respond to adversity and that's what the Canucks are going to do. Thursday couldn't come soon enough!

[LP700-4]

Dont worry bout it, losing tonights game just means all of us will be crazier on the next HOME game.....

5-3 kings now, interesting!

[kristianhay]

Torres should probably sit next game. Raymond has really suffered playing centre and Hansen has lost a bit of jump.

Agreed, put Cody back in so we have a natural center there and Raymond can get his stride back.

There's also the option of doing that, but subbing out Glass/Oreo for Torres on the fourth line.

[Ronin]

Not worried. Chicago can't beat the Canucks in 4 straight. The only question is how much rest the Canucks get before round 2...where we hopefully play LA instead of Nashville.

As they have all season long, the Canucks will watch some tape tonight and get their act together. This is a team that lost twice in a row only about 3 times all season long. They'll bring it. I believe in our boys.

[spoon.ek9]

Torres should probably sit next game. Raymond has really suffered playing centre and Hansen has lost a bit of jump.

they mentioned it last game too. since raymond is forced to play centre, he isn't able to gain speed thru the neutral zone which is what the canucks were dominating at in games 1 and 2. raymond is doing his best, but he's clearly not a natural centre like hodgson and would be WAY better off on the wing.

canucks need to play physical and use their speed advantage. ie, PLAY THEIR GAME!

[RiceIntegraRS]

Raymond isnt a center but hes been the best Canucks faceoff guy surprisingly. Hodgson is 1for6 in Game 1. U think maybe Raymond should strictly take the faceoffs then switch it up with Hodgson and play the wing? I used to do this when i play hockey cause i was awesome at faceoffs, but didnt want to play the center position so i switched with the winger. But sometimes could get confusing though, with missed asignments ect.

Right id change the lineup to

Sedin - Sedin - Samuelsson
Higgins - Kesler - Burrows
Raymond - Hodgson - Hansen
Glass - Lappierre - Torres

[spoon.ek9]

They'll need to fire AV and find someone who can handle Luongo's ego better. Things like starting him in the 2nd period shows that he's not capable of coaching Lu. I don't know if there is anyone who can, that's the issue...

To keep the team this good without going over the cap year after year is a big enough challenge - Bieksa, Salo, Ehrhoff are UFAs this summer. Having the best team doesn't entitle you to win anything. It just gives you the best chance. Anyone can run into a bad matchup or injuries.

They'll need to fire AV and find someone who can handle Luongo's ego better. Things like starting him in the 2nd period shows that he's not capable of coaching Lu. I don't know if there is anyone who can, that's the issue...

I would worry more about not giving Chicago all day in the slot with the goalie deep in his net.

I am not even going to bother listening to team1040. It will get me so angry with all the idiotic callers phoning in. Do people actually think the Canucks will sweep the damn playoffs going 16-0? All I can say is, at least they weren't the LA Kings last night. 4-0 lead in game 3 and they blow it. Although it was bound to happen the Sharks wake up.

[TouringTeg]

Plus Canucks get so much money for one more home game.

It's all about stimulating the BC economy :D I am sure BC pub owners everywhere are happy to be showing another game lol

* this is not because they lost today - just a question that i had for a while... Was going to call Team 1040 and ask the guy ..

We've been doing awesome all year yet you ask about failure? Enjoy the run and worry about it later.

Maybe you're just asking a "matter of fact" question but we're in the middle of a bloody playoff race, up 3-1 in our series. I'm not even remotely considering any failure by the team. A loss here or there - sure - but we, as a team, haven't "collapsed" all season long.

I'll consider the future of the team when our season is over... in June....after the parade.

Get rid of torres raymond and salo, sign brad richards

because
-we are first in every category except pk which we are tied for 2nd?
-coaching staff are responsible for offensive and defensive (pp 1st and pk tied 2nd)
-we have 2 back to back mvp and art ross winner
-best goaltending duo
-selke candidate
-best face off team
-best defense core when healthy

Only reason we will collapse is the ref and the nhl trying to help big american nhl market teams by being unfair (phantom calls and ridiculous suspensions)

THE CANADIAN PRESS

NEW YORK -- Vancouver's Mike Gillis, Nashville's David Poile and Tampa Bay's Steve Yzerman are the three finalists for the 2010-11 NHL General Manager of the Year Award.

Voting for this award was conducted by the NHL's 30 GMs and a panel of NHL executives, print and broadcast media.

The winner will be announced June 22 in Las Vegas

If Nashville would give up Barry Trotz, I'd love to have that guy as our coach.

uhm.. it was 1-1 heading into the 2nd period. i'm not sure where you're drawing this conclusion from. also, the entire 2nd period was a brain fart for our 6 guys on the ice, not just lu.

I agree with all your points but, Brad Richards? Too expensive plus it doesnt look like we need another centreman in our lineup

Moving onto game 5:
I hope Hodgson is in the lineup

the ref didnt help the canucks lose.. if you see the posted image of the penalties that were called on either side, it was pretty even..

also, the canucks did not show up.. whether or not the refs had anything to do with the penalties or not, the canucks didn't deserve to win. this thrashing is a blessing in disguise.. remember the last time the canucks got shelled by chicago??? they went on an absolute TEAR!

[AzNightmare]

Yeah, too many people whining about phantom calls. Unless it was as bad as the Auger/Burrows incident,
we're just looking for excuses to cover up Canucks' pitiful effort.

They'll need to fire AV and find someone who can handle Luongo's ego better. Things like starting him in the 2nd period shows that he's not capable of coaching Lu. I don't know if there is anyone who can, that's the issue...

You mean 3rd period?

The 6th goal wasn't necessary before Lu got the yank.
The no Timeout was also a bad move after the two quick goals.
By the way the Canucks played in comparison to the Blackhawks,
probably wouldn't have made a difference... but the TO would have just
been a good coaching move in general.

Most Timeouts are never used in a game. I don't see why not use them.
Often, the coaches are saving it for "just in case" later in the game. But if they aren't
used at a crucial time earlier (or whenever fit) in the game, it might be too late by the
time the coach is "ready" to use it later.

[murd0c]

Gillis is going to win it hands down!!

[shawn79]

Having brad richards is obviously a fantasy choice but hes a former playoff mvp, point per game player and one of the best two way forward in the game.

Losing salo(3.5) torres (1.0) UFA, trade raymond (2.6) plus salary cap is up 2.6 mill?

ballard and rome are good enough to step up the bottom pairing in our defence

[Domed]

^
you forget to mention bieksa and ehrhoff they are both ufas and ehrhoff is gunna want a raise because hes been our most consistent dman and richards is not one of the best two way forwards hes a minus player for his career hes more offensively minded

Lose 1 game - > dicuss new coaches :failed:

How quickly people forget......... AV, IMHO, is a damn good coach. Even though he is a Frenchie, LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

[chunk_stir]

NHL players don't get paid much for playoff games. ie. ($50K for losing 1st round team, split amongst the team, paid by league). So for incentive, wouldn't owners want their team to play more home games? contracts are only for 82 games of regular season, with bonuses for home-games played during playoffs?

If that's the case, there is tremendous incentive to extend the series for the benefit of the players, as well as for the owners.

I don't know... just saying. they really didnt' show up last night. but perhaps that is consciously or sub-conciously done... It's unlikely Canucks will lose 4 in a row. so why not throw one to get paid?

[411ken]

Besides the team store...... anyone see any Hamhuis or Edler jerseys around town? All I see are Luongos,Sedins.

Aquilini and the Canucks will make way more $$$$$$ if they close the series in Vancouver. Thursday night downtown will be nuts and millions of dollars will be spent on booze and whores in celebration.

[highfive]

I still have the image of Sharp celebrating after he scored a goal yesterday. Like c'mon, do you need to celebrate like you've never scored? Fucking Hawks, they score and they celebrate and taunt like shit.

[chunk_stir]

You obviously don't play sports. Also we are talking about the holy grail of all trophies.

Yes, you're right. Well, half-right. I do play sports, not professionally and definitely not for money, especially the kind of money NHL players are making. You can't say that $$$ don't factor into the equation at all.

Of course there is pride and trophy on the line. but come on... these guys know it's going to be a long haul to the cup and that they cannot and will not win every single game, as much pride as there is in doing so. So, you have a bad game, take it easier one game (they certainly didn't seem as sharp as first two games or play as hard into corners), or not getting your rhythm for one game, is not going to be that bad, especially when you can close out at home ice in front of home crowd with possible monetary bonuses.

Whatever the case, it doesn't really matter... You cna't complain about more playoff hockey to watch.

Metrotown sportchek has the 3rd edler jerseys. Went by on Monday and they had a few small, medium, couple large and xl I think. $220 + tax.

Many of us DO play sports, but the big difference here is that none of us are PAID (big money, might I add) to play sports. So we'll never know how money factors into the equation - if it does.

Edit: Point I was trying to make, which BlueG2 does a better job of, is that we play sports for fun, whereas for these guys, it's their job.

[Spidey]

Think of it this way.. we are all paid at our jobs... All of us can admit that we are guilty of slacking off, some more than others... Hockey players and athletes are just under the microscope. They are human. As much as most of us love hockey, and or whatever sport we love to play, imagine being at the rink 5-6 days a week, and playing a meaningful game 3-4 days a week for 82 games.. THEN to have playoffs, every other day at the intensity that it is.. Money isn't that much of a motivator if your are putting yoru body on the line.. You will tire out fast mentally and physically if you are a pro athlete.

Even with my work, sometimes there is not enough money in the world that will get me to work when it is my day off.

Yes they make much more than most people out there, but still they are human. To have a couple off games here and there is understandable. Those of us who have played sports all know that there are some games where you just can't get into it, and or, your team just does not click.
