He needed to be gone before the off-season... I hated our team last year... and I do like Garland... and appreciate OEL at times...

but we were FINALLY at the last year of all those horrible contracts... just had to basically throw away this year (it's been thrown away anyway basically!) and then we were in fantastic shape with like $18+M off the books if you also don't sign Poolman and Dickinson... but nope, someone tried to save their job and make the playoffs.

I also kinda blame Horvat, his end of year comments about not staying here if we keep missing playoffs... put a lot of public pressure on management not just riding out the last year of all those horrible deals.

BUT... time heals all wounds right? Maybe the timing just wasn't right... if we hadn't kept GMJB as long as we had we maybe wouldn't have gotten Boudreau or Rutherford or Allvin... so... there's an upside to everything I think.

It would be a miracle if the GM can somehow offload Myers (NTC), OEL (NMC), Dickinson and Garland. While Garland is good, he's not at almost 5mil good.

Canucks have lots of upside, "cause there's no direction left to go except up. Okay, maybe stay the same.

I'm no longer a Canuck fan........ took everything Canucks down, except the "Heart and Soul," framed picture. I was thinking of selling the bandwagon. Then, I thought, why not rent it out? Every Tom's Dick in Harry is doing that in real estate these days. Why not the wagon, gulolol.

There are a couple of articles talking about whether this GM team will extend a 2nd year to Bruce Boudreau as coach. Apparently, Aquaman signed him as coach for 1 year with a 2nd year as option (not hired by this GM team).

Is that just click bait? If there was any more obvious conclusion, at least to me ... of course you bring him back for a year and then consider offering an extension sometime in the middle of next season if he continues to have this kind of winning percentage.

68style
04-09-2022, 07:27 AM
By all accounts Canucks ownership got Rutherford’s input before hiring Boudreau so it’s a bit of a fallacy to say this management had no say in his hiring.

Boudreau also has an out clause, so he may well leave to a better offer too.

I don't care how you rebuild or retool. They're only as good as how well the core players play. Miller, Petey, Bo, Hughes, Boeser and Demko.

Petey, Bo, and Boeser been pretty shitty this year. If they don't bring their consistent A game like how the Sedins used to be. Nothing is going to change.

If you're on team tank we're 18th in overall standings with the Jets 1 point shittier and same games played then the Islanders at 5 points shittier and 2 games less played. Realistically the worst we can do is finish 20th instead of 18th. Kinda pointless imo.

It's nice to see us play meaningful hockey this late but this has been a decade of pulling any positive we can from the team. We need too get better straight up and it'll take yet some more time to do so.

True. But they've been losing quite a few games lately. Fingers crossed the Canucks can leap frog Vegas and catch LA.

Will be interesting to see since who ever gets the third spot will play Edmonton in the first round.

Any of the wild card spots will have a tough time facing Calgary or Colorado.

pastarocket
04-13-2022, 09:41 AM
-looked at the Western wild card standings as of today:

Dallas 88 points. 9 games remaining

Vegas 85 points. 8 games remaining

Canucks 82 points. 8 games remaining.


Here's the math:

Canucks would need to win all their remaining 8 games, in regulation without giving any points away to the opposition, to give them 98 points.

Then they would need Dallas to finish their remaining games with a record of
4 wins, 5 losses, to reach 96 points or worse for our Canucks to get the last wild card spot.

Then Vegas would need to finish their remaining games with a record of 5 wins, 3 losses, or worse, in order for our Canucks to get the last wild card spot. 95 points.

The team has to go on a twelve game winning streak and hope that Dallas and Vegas start losing many more games just for a slim chance of getting the final wild card spot. LUL

EvoFire
04-13-2022, 09:48 AM
I think we have a better chance of getting the 3rd spot than the wild card spot right now. Neither LA or Vegas has been playing particularly well lately. Granted that still hinges on the Nucks winning ALL their remaining games, which seems unlikely. Rarely do teams go on 10 game winning streaks, nvm 12.

Was at the game last night.
The only thing a little disappointing was the number of empty seats. With the Nucks oh so close to the playoffs, would think it would be closer to a sellout.

Great game though. All through the third, people were doing the wave, and generally have a great time. Lots of energy. Was definitely hoping Podz or Chaisson could get a hatty.

If only NHL used the NBA 'play in' scenario for #7, 8, 9, 10 seeds ... Canucks might have a chance.

Western conference seeds #7, 8, 9, & 10 are very tight and I can see how that format would make things exciting.

But the Eastern ... #7 and #8 are pretty set ... and they earned their spots.

At one point, I wasn't sure if he was even going to crack 40pts this season.

Truth it was looking pretty ugly for a while. Right now he can quit reasonably finish with 30 goals and 70 points, pretty damn good for that extended terrible start. Bo with 30 goals, nice! Miller hitting 100 points is doable as well. Also Huggie Bear will easily hit 60 points I mean when was the last time a Canucks defender hit 60? if ever or even 50? Small victories but it's nice to see none the less.

Like others have mentioned just nice to see the way the team is playing both the success they've had and just the style of play. Let's see how this season pans out I mean yea there's still a chance and quite frankly I would feel better about having a real shot if we didn't have to leap over Vegas and LA. If it was just leaping LA it very well could be doable but this is sports and you never know till you know it's what makes watching so fun.

Being in control of destiny is a mathematical thing...
Canucks aren't in control because they need "help" from the wild card teams to lose.

Even if Canucks win all their games, it's not necessarily good enough as they are still at the mercy of the results from team's they are chasing.

Because of their S/O lost tonight, they are also at the mercy of Vegas now.

It made it extra exciting and fun to watch. Too bad they didn't get the W.

I wish Pettersson would just shoot a normal shot sometimes. It seems like he feels he has to laser it every time, and his aim suffers, and it takes a tiny bit longer to get the shot off

Its a mathematical thing and before this loss to the Senators, the canucks were in control. Because the easier road to playoffs was to catchup to the Kings who were 3rd in the pacific. Not the wildcard spots. It was simple, win all ur games(beat LA in regulation) and were in. Now...... we need abit of help.

Im actually pretty sad that the Canucks will miss the playoffs. Especially since we all witnessed the Blues going from basement to Cup Champs in a single season not to long ago. I was actually pretty confident that the Canucks could pull this off and make the playoffs. Under Bruce the Canucks are actually a Top 10 Team points % wise. Just too bad that they still continue to lose to teams that they should easily steamroll.

I've been a fan a long time and will continue to follow of course. But this is a pretty typical Canucks thing for the last 30 years I've been following haha

- late surge and just miss the playoffs or squeak into last place
- lose many games to teams they should've beat
- have a terrible 3rd period

At least pettersson is having a great late season, hopefully he remembers what he changed and will continue it into next season.

Guy Lafleur is one of those early hockey memories for me, and not because of his legendary play or anything (most of which came before my time). I remember him coming out of retirement, seeing how different he looked and played, and I started to understand hockey was played before my time, that it was different, and that players eventually get old. It kinda made me think about the game itself. I would have my own legends and era of the game. Eventually I would imagine how the game would evolve in my life time, how futuristic hockey cards would get (ie like the ST TNG holographic projection of Tasha Yar). So Guy helped trigger those thought processes in me.

Maybe… they can part ways with Myers, Poolman, Dickinson…

Boeser’s status is up in the air, his QO is ridiculously high for his production be interesting to see if he would sign a team friendly longer deal to avoid having to qualify him.

I think the salary cap is also going up a bit and no more Luongo… thought the Holtby buyout and Halak bonus negate that.

mathematically eliminated from playoffs but the skate jersey remains undefeated. hughes breaks franchise record for dman points in a season. martin looking solid out there. it's a tough pill to swallow but at least the our young stars are doing well and the direction of this team is looking better.

if Bruce was hired earlier.. sigh

look at the Panthers.

It's too bad Vancouver now have meaningless games to finish the season off.
It was fun while it lasted.

I hope Miller reaches 100 points. That's the only stat worth keeping an eye on lol

anyone know why Dallas (before tonight's game) hasnt already clinched the last wildcard spot?

even if Vegas won both its last games, they'd have 95 points with 44 wins, whereas Dallas already has 95 points with 45 wins before playing their last two games.

The first tie breaker is ROW (right out wins) basically wins in regulation and OT not shootout, so they would of tied in that tie breaker and i assume the next tie breaker was head to head record which Vegas may of had the edge so thats probably why Dallas didnt clinch yet
