So much easier to watch the Canucks once you lower your expectations.

Torts just started as head coach and has something like 4 years left on his contract. I don't think he's going anywhere... |

Where does this leave Torts in the off season? | Think about it.
Daniel is likely done for the season
Kesler to be traded tomorrow
Edler on the block
The best goalie you've played with is traded
Team is expected to win with 2 rookie goalies

^^ Not to mention Burrow's injury and how he hasn't been able to do anything since returning.
It's been that type of year.

Lack played really well today, so lets hope he can keep this up. But the rest of the team is a joke.

Lack playing well is a catch 22. Sure, he gives us the best chance to win but what does it matter when at the end of the day the end result is still a loss? The goalies playing well only mask how bad the team in front is. Tanking won't help us this season either.
The fact that we keep losing key cogs just buys MG more excuses to blame this season's woes on injuries.
This season is a write-off. No win scenarios any way you look at it. MG royally cornered himself.

Unfortunately, that's a question mark, not a certainty. I think I would've rather put Luongo on waivers than trade Schneider and then trade Luongo 9 months later.

The goal is to win games, not make money. Win games and the money will follow, especially in a city like Vancouver. Canucks will lose way more in lost revenue if they keep playing like this than if they fire Tortorella and bring someone in who helps the team win games.
