Losing is a part of building, you can lose but still play the right way with effort, that's not happening! I can take losing with kids, what I can't accept is losing on purpose, which appears to be the case.

As long as they learn. Otherwise you end up with Jake Gardiner.

Sure....but not a bottom feeding Western Conference team in the prime of his career.

alright relax, canucks are poope this year, but they are not a bottom feeding team. At least not regularly.

Losing is good for the soul. This franchise needed some humble pie and it tastes really good. Another 2-3 good drafts and this team should be in prime position for the 2020-21 season.

Probably not no, it will come down to how much he wants to get paid and how much he wants to win

I also loved how Hank and dank talked about personal effort. Daniel will miss 3 empty nets a game. Hank cant win a faceoff....Our Locker room is terrible because our leaders are gutless

And how Stamkos percieves the Vancouver Canucks.

let's cheer for wins for the Jets, Flames and Oilers on the NHL schedule today. Go Canada!

And there it is, Carol wanting to tank...

I am pretty sure Burrows did not have the flu two weeks ago and again last night. It is quite the coincidence that 6 players all get injured within a two game span.

I am pretty sure next year we won't have 6 of our 8 top players in the press box.

Losing teams do this every year. The sky really isn't falling

I am already ahead of you.


We are cheering to lose for 11 more games only

Could you imagine the backlash if we somehow managed to secure a higher pick than Toronto?

I could see WD being on a very short leash next year, like a firing if the team still sucks by Nov. Might be premature, but there are a lot of underachievers on this team, despite the tank. I know the Sedins have been putting up points, but they've been a dumpster fire since christmas. Melanson wants out... the main reason we had such great goaltending depth over the years... the things coming out of the locker these days dont seem worth the 3 extra spots in the draft in my opinion. Very odd team these days.

It took her awhile to come around. Back off!

Wouldnt that be some Karma eh?

it's destroying the lockerroom, and ruining the confidence of the younger guys we are developing now

Apparently Hank have a issue with his hip. I wonder if coaching staff/management ask him to seat the last games of the season.

we dont? Last time I checked we needed an elite goal scorer... but hey that's just me, I love being shut out :p

And it's a given that Stamkos will be the same in the west as the east I suppose, he has the same points as Daniel, and we are going to give him 12m...for 58pts.

They are already paying 14m for 108pts. What's 26m for 166pts...money well spent...

We asked for change. This is called change. As Torts pointed out the team was stale. Even with all the change so far I still think Edler and Tanev need to be upgraded

Well when Edler/Sedins play half of every game, the team is still the same stale core. I'm hoping Daniel gets sour enough lately that they'll accept a trade out.

Look at what Pedan & Tryamkin are doing in such a short time, i'll suggest the locker room is forming a new identity.
