just a garbage effort from top to bottom! JB better start making some phone calls and asking some players to waive some NTC cuz this ship is sinking and sinking fast!!!
"you can't tell the 1st line from the 4th line" ......yep.
also, this is compounding the troubles with signing miller to 6 million a year: you end up with this mediocre team on the edge of the playoff bubble that's on again off again, meaning you're not good enough to play in the playoffs or suck consistently enough to draft high in a deep draft
-really interested to see if Benning is going to pull a trigger to makes trades for more offence.
Our top six forwards, other than Daniel, Henrik, and Vrbata, do not include consistent scorers. Higgy and Burrows are playing like weaksauce geezers right now.
We need young guns for our top six, not aging water cannons!
This has to be the lowest of lows for me ever since I became a Canuck fan in 94...
For the past month, I've been checking this thread to get news on what happened to games that were played earlier in the day, or even games played the day before, simply cause I forget there's a game on, or more likely that I just don't give a shit.

Canucks are still in playoff position, 1 point behind LAK with 2 games in hand, 2 points behind SJS with 3 games in hand... not over yet but at the same time I'm not overly optimistic.

I really hope JB gets rid of Higgins, or at least waives him. Tbh, I wouldn't even mind seeing Burrows get moved, but that cap hit he carries with him is brutal. Inb4 "but he was being underpaid for several years!!!!"
Having a mediocre third line as your second line = disaster
bad elbow by Suter on Downie, Minnesota has been awful lately and I doubt they will be any better off without Suter he should get a few games for that.
How much longer till Mike Yeo gets fired?
In December the Wild were 4W - 4L - 3OTL, January has been a disaster 1W - 5L - 1OTL
The Wild hold a record of 18W - 19L - 5OTL, 41PTS tied with the Avs for bottom of the Central division

Not in terms of their where they are in the standings.
In terms of the enjoyment they bring to me. I'm not excited about this team.
Canucks hockey is a pretty low priority in my life right now, and probably the lowest it has ever been.
It seems to be clearly showing considering I keep forgetting about their games.

If management is going to be a bunch of shit heads and not put Kassian on the 2nd line instead the invisible Higgins then call up Jensen when he is healthy and put him on there. Sick and tired of this team pissing away our young talent for older vets who are now on the decline. We need scoring might as well give jensen a shot!
this 3 game losing streak has been disappointing. Id rather watch the team lose with some effort night in night out than the past 3 games of garbage...
but definitely not "rock bottom" for this canucks core... this clip has been amusing... hahah

the low point was pretty much last year in January. A lot of ppl kinda shook it off as an off year but that was the beginning of the end. I lost interest around that time and kinda got frustrated that they can't accept the fact that the team is shit.
This is a consequence of being in a Canadian market...the owners are too focused on profit to actually give a shit about the component and long-term trajectory of the team.
JB is essentially stuck when it comes to trade, we're sellers, no doubt about it. As to who would actually buy, that's beyond me. Don't let the standings fool you. Come March this team will probably be swimming in the basement or foolishly fighting for a wildcard spot. Idiot ownership will pressure to get plugs and short term repairs when in reality there should be a rebuild and an infusion of youth into the line up. If we could get 3rd, 4th or 5th round picks for the useless plugs on the team right now i'd be so happy and maybe get excited watching again.
I don't know about all the death knells ringing out in this thread... but I am a bit upset to read this morning that coach Willie stated to the media that they played well but didn't come away with the win. Is there such a thing as too much positivity? I don't think they played well at all and to say otherwise is pretty ridiculous.
that's pretty much why the death knells are ringing.
they're either completely oblivious to their incompetence or they're being instructed to read scripted lines as a pathetic attempt to imply that it's all good.
