I think at some point we need to stop blaming coaches. We are on coach # 3 and still talking about the same thing. Lack of scoring and defensive poor play .

I know someone will bring up how high we are in team scoring, all I will say is thank Christ for our bottom 6.

We discussed yesterday that both Sedins have 6 goals each. IMO that is unacceptable . Our second line has two third liners on it. I will give WD a pass on having Hansen on the first line last night seeing he was desperate . He did move him down to the second later in the game and that was a shame because he was their best player on that line last night. Sedins were invisible and need to pick up their game.

What can you say about the D except My O My
It is very possible that we dont have good enough horses in the stable. Thats right Trader Jim I am looking at you.

Last night I turned on my TV for all of 15 seconds before turning it off again. It was great, I watched a couple of episodes of Marco Polo instead. Thanks Canucks, for not wasting my time by removing all hope in the first 3 minutes

How is that show? Saw in on Netflix.

I have been watching Ripper Street. Pretty good.

My father and I are on our way to royal Colombian as we speak. She had a Major aneurysm and needed emergency brain surgery yesterday. I was at the hospital for a solid 24 hours.

But everything has been very positive thus far.

Yea I'm a sucker for these historical shows. It's pretty cool but I just can't stand that seemingly everyone in the show is proficient in martial arts. I'm sorry, but the bureaucrat with the pencil thin arms who spends his time reading Confucian scrolls is not going to beat down a hired soldier

Newfoundland steak sammy?


We will be lucky if we can pickup a project sort of player with scoring potential.

Still can't see how Corrado didn't get into the lineup when we are on a little losing streak- couldn't do any worse than Sbisa or Weber.

Missing Garrison this year.

I would rather keep Sbisa over KB . Cheaper younger and has bigger hits.

I would tend to agree as WD has done a pretty good job so far with what he has to work with. But as mentioned before he is a rookie coach and we are going to need to deal with a few headscratcher decisions...and there may be a few more once Lack takes the no 1 spot back?

The blame does need to go to the players. Sedins, Burrows, Higgins, Bieksa, Spizza, Weber, Stanton, and a few others pretty sub par out there. Once WD has a few more players to work with outcomes might change...

I'm sure trader Jim is on it...

The only way the media would say Virtanen was a lock, is if he was a leaf draft pick

So Bobby Mac is implying that Virtanen is basically a lock for the WJ team. May end up playing with McDavid
Gonna be fun to watch

while he does have some weaknesses, maybe people are realalizing AV wasn't to blame for as much as a few on here wanted to blame him for

I think we could lose every game for the rest of the season and still finish above EDM
Edit: unless you are implying Sedins for 1OA at the draft

He is an excellent regular season coach, but he gets out coached in the playoffs against the. Top teams

All we need is a 1st rounder from any non play off team. We may have one already
