Jesus just because one player bucked the trend doesn't mean the rest didn't take the slow and steady pace, you just like to argue, is your name Manvan?

Whether you like it or not the Canucks are on the slow and steady pace for building, four out of the past five years they've finished at the bottom of the league (bottom six), with no signs of turning the corner just yet.

Got you a little riled up did I?


Just saying, when the Canucks pick Zadina they won’t be able to keep him off this team.

I liked how as the game went on Gaudette looked more confident with the puck. I think he had three shots (attempts) on one shift. He and Virtanen looked good together.

The speed of him and Virtanen was great. The puck movement of the Horvat line was also.

At this point I prefer to see them lose but play well and play an exciting brand of hockey.

I like what I have seen in the 7 or 8 games. Positive strides.

never, I'm a cool cucumber my friend, enjoying a nice coffee, sun is shining...I'm all good.

Both him and Tkachuk are LW'ers I think aren't they? That'd be a good fit if they don't fall back, then I'd prefer one of the better ranked Dmen.

Whenever they put the kids in they play a better brand of hockey but then they turn around and sign a bunch of slow vets and go with that, idiots running the organization

I think it’s pretty clear that this team isn’t good enough to compete for a playoff spot, let alone a championship, and over the course of the season the losses will take care of themselves. I do atmit that when Boeser was scoring, and they were losing I still came away happy...

I seen comments on his first game he needed to improve his speed . Yesterdays comments were he needed to get stronger


I have liked everything so far no complaints. He looks like he will develop into a good third line center

Some purging of the current roster would be nice.
Players like Tanev Granlund Boucher, even Baertschi should be available this off-season, hopefully for picks.

Gaudette looked really good yesterday, he's not a smooth skater, kinda clunky but he gets around ok. I wouldn't call him fast by any means.

There's a lot of stale dead-weight hangin around that Benning's brought in as filler, they need a BIG purge this summer. Way too many tweeners hangin around.

I think he will get fast. These few games will let him know what he lacks. This is a kid that stays 30 minutes after practice to practice some more. I think in three years he will be very good .

Did they sign him to an AHL contract only?

Donna said it would be a waste of a contract.
