Expect more weird games like this, from most teams, because of this fucked up schedule.

Garrett was harsh but true - we had 3 rookie defencemen with 7 NHL games between them, Schmidt, Myers and Hughes.
Yikes. This D-core is not looking good.

As mentioned many times over, it's this management team's poor cap management that has led them to this situation. Yes, COVID put a huge dent into a lot of teams but you can't have a 200 million dollar bottom 6 and expect to be able to make moves. That's why I never understood the fanbase that argued on the side of "well we have cap space so might as well use it up hurr durr"

I was the one confused when GMJB when signing Ferland and Roussell, Beagle and Benn. Even when he signed Sutter to that terrible contract which thankfully is almost over. The only way to be successful in a salary cap league is to ensure that your bottom 6 and your bottom defense pairing is made up of either veterans on low risk, low wage contracts, or young guys still on their entry level deals.
The thought that the Canucks are spending $10.5 million on Roussell, Sutter and Beagle is insane, and will continue to hamper them over the next few years. No idea how Ferland plays out if he attempts another comeback.
Add in Eriksson, Spooner, Luongo, and Baertschi in the mix and that is another $13 million or so tied up. Not all Benning's fault, but the Canucks are in salary cap hell, and he should have realized that sooner than later.

I think Winnipeg paid too much with the salary retention too.........
Interesting that Roslovic is actually from Colombus... homecoming for him!

When your superstar says he wants to be traded, the sooner you get something for him, the better. Even if it's for a couple years I guess., Better than nothing?
I may have been gone from hockey for a long time, but I absolutely remember how many players just can't stand playing for Torts. He can be a great coach, but sometimes it just doesn't' work out and the player has to go.

WTF? I forgot it was an early game. Did Miriam sing the anthem? That’s pretty much all I care about. It’s recorded anyway. Gets deleted right away, sometimes.

Typical Canucks bad luck with the puck. Juolevi hits the post with his shot.
Then the Habs counter with a 3 on 2 with the puck deflecting off Juolevi’s stick to go past Holtby.

Lots of bad give aways and odd man rushes, lack of playing time between these defensive pairings shows. Not much for chemistry.

Time to bring back our star: Loui Eriksson.
The evidence is all there. We are nothing without him.
