I doubt it, I’m looking forward to the playoffs see if they can win a round or two.

Watching the Islanders vs Ducks game, the Islanders are winning but they look terrible, as does Horvat. I hope Lou chokes on that contract for the next eight seasons. If he lives that long.

Bo has 2 goals in his last 10 I think. 8.5 x 8 was and is disgusting. Makes the JT deal look good. I'm a fan of Bo but there is zero coincidence he got traded shortly after Tochett showed up and essentially no way that guy is our captain going forward.

He might have been the problem, I think he’s a nice guy that doesn’t like confrontation and avoids it, not good if your a captain.they have played better since he’s been gone and petey and JT have taken over the leadership it appears.

I'm pretty sure Bo was here last season when this team went on that 2/3 of a season tear... so you can just as easily say the Canucks played their best hockey in years with Bo on the team.

The leadership narrative is pretty dumb. If there were other leaders on this team then they would have led as well(not saying they didnt). It's that simple. You put way too much on a piece of cloth in the shape of a C being sewn onto a jersey. Like it's magical or something.


What we have is two seasons in a row where this team turned around exactly when a new coach was brought in. Fabricate narratives all you want but it's pretty obvious that this team is going through a coach bump once again.

I don’t know if he wants to stick around and neither do you you (frank)ing twat. You got called out on your bs and are now pretending you knew his contract status. You are pathetic

I’m actually quite sure that’s why I said bet

Ya unfortunately many players have great seasons in their contract years then fall back to reality. Bo is no different and I also agree that Bo would not be Tocchet's 'guy' moving forward. The Captaincy was just to much for him which was unfortunate.

Big game tonight.
Canucks need the big win, to get within 4 points of Red Wings and 5 points of the Senators.

7-4 Canucks.

Beauvillierx2, Kuzmenko, Boeser, Juulsen, Miller & Joshua.

Go Canucks Go.

Sad when highly paid professionals have to be told by the coach that they need to come to camp in shape

One of you mentioned Brock’s participation in Da Beauty League. Sounds like Tocchet is done with that kind of summer “training”.

The sooner you understand, the sooner you will get on board, it is about now, not the down the road future.
They have chosen the route they want to go, so we just need to accept it and support the direction they are taking.

A top 5 pick gives you a player now, a 10th overall pick gives you a player in a couple of years. Not sure how you don't understand that?

A 10th overall pick gets you a return from the acquiring team, of a decent defenseman or a 3LC, for the win-now process, that the team has chosen.
You need to understand what direction this management group has chosen. Right or wrong, they have made a choice, just need to support that choice.

I'm realizing now that your first post was sarcastic and I feel silly
