Kind of funny but there was 4 seconds on the clock and NJ was doing the same

the entire bottom 6 got destroyed tonight


Problem is bigger than that, but the bottom 6 got worked by NJ, every shift looked like a 5v5 PK

Must’ve been the sweaters? They’re so much better than the Skate jerseys, but that Johnny Canuck logo sucks balls. Needs to be within a triangular shape like the Vancouver Giants logo.

He came from Carolina, they probably at least fire a shot from center ice or try for a homerun stretch pass. He'll learn that he doesn't have to try in those situations in Vancouver.

That tweet also links to another tweet where Brady Tkachuk almost scores on a breakway from a stretch pass that started from his own zone with less than 6 seconds left

How did the Canucks manage to get a 2 minute power play but Schenn and Joshua got kicked out but no devils got kicked out even though bastian was a third man in from what I saw.

As I have said, they need to start somewhere, unfortunately Bo may be 1st to go, which is a shame, because he is one of the few tolerable players on the team, but change must happen and not with the bottom part of the roster.

Doesn’t matter if he’s a nice guy or an a-hole. He’s valuable and the team needs a rebuild.

It seemed like that violence frightened the Canucks, they got destroyed after that

I am thinking of the comedy of errors so far for this new group.

Trade a third for Dermott for 18 games.
Hire an analytic person who calls the owner an idiot and he should sell the team. Then promote her to video coach only to fire her one week later.
Extend Miller now looking to trade him 10 games in.
Give up a second to move Richardie who has more points than his entire fourth line.
Trade for Stillman who is a dumpster pick up.
Tells media that they are not a top team and have no elite players. (Even if true do not say it publicly)

Honestly, I am not complaining about this, but I sure am laughing at it.

I could add a few more to those, but I wouldn't want to depress anyone.

Also had Rutherford go on HNIC after hours and say out loud that he didn’t know Bruce had a contract option for this season. Seems like a well run ship

They seem really confused about what they want to do. It goes in circles...

There were a few of us that were apprehensive about the hiring of this new regime and were just happy to see the old regime gone, but that happiness, at least for me, ended at the draft, which is how long I said I would give them until, to see the direction.
I didn't like the pick, even though it was BPA, as I am not a fan of BPA, especially small wingers and small defensemen.

He said they only honored the contract he was given. That was a spin... a deflection call it what you may but it was the team's option. They had an off ramp on Bruce's contract and chose to activate the option.

If the Canucks were picking 7th oa... they would have still picked Leperimakki. Wow...

Yeah but his words were along the lines of “when I took the job it was my understanding that it was just the one year contract for Bruce”

Two issues here:

1) How does that miscommunication happen?

2) That’s basically the team president distancing himself from his head coach like 6 or 7 games into the season. Even if he didn’t mean for it to come off the way, it didn’t exactly scream “I want this guy to be my coach”

With the info I had, he was at 11 in my very amateurish rankings, but doesn't mean I wanted him over Bischel and Pickering(defensemen) or Gaucher, a centre.
