After seven years, I don’t know what to think.

Yeah coaching those turnovers is not cutting it.

This team still fragile, when things go wrong, they double down on errors.

Either that or Habs replaced Jets as Canuck Kryptonite.

You didn't see any structural breakdowns that were being exploited? Ever play a game of competitive hockey? There's more than just bad passes that cause guys to be wide open. Turnovers happen every game, how do you explain the gaping holes in Defence that happen after them?

What took her so long, did you hide some pieces from her?

She's missing a single piece.

She just asked if we could buy a bigger dining room table so she could do larger puzzles.

yes...and...lack of execution. Even Green said it just now ...was definition of insanity doing the wrong thing.

Brutal effort tonight but good news is that it was all about the effort. Boys will be back and will get the win tomorrow - getting the split is all that is needed.

2-1-1 the rest of the road trip. After this week the schedule evens out and they can focus on being consistent - looked pooped tonight.

Certain players just still too young to be consistent nightly.

To piss off everyone and because he's defensively responsible.

Canucks have enough offence to score 2-3 goals a game but what they don't have is enough defence to keep the puck out of their net 3 times a game.

Coaching change is easily option.

I honestly wasn't expecting a lot this season, other than trying some new faces with the team.
Rather see Bailey or Michaelis slotted into the lineup.

Honestly, neither was I.

I'm also not about to just tank the season. I know that some players aren't ready for the NHL or are never going to be NHL material. Slapping players in here or there is about tanking. Teams slightly past that.

I'm also on the same side as Makita that Travis Green has reached a limit on his coaching ability for now to improve this team to take it to the next level. Plus his coaching staff.

Unless the team wants to wait another 4-8 years for him to catch up.

I am not talking about tanking, I am talking about inserting one or 2 of the taxi squad guys, you know the ones that would have been called up from the AHL, when injuries or poor play happened.

Pretty f#cked up to blame the player brain farts on the coach.

But, but...the 4 game winning streak.

Also, the systems on this team, for several years have put players in bad spots, where they are last man back and keep getting puck when pressure is on, with no other outlets for that player, eg, the Gaudette miscues.
There are so many over the course of a season that are such similar mistakes, that most of the players are doing, but I am sure some will say, it is the players having a brainfart.
