Carol Schram: Pettersson dazzles; Canucks get a point but can't climb out of playoff hole Normally, a hard-fought overtime loss would be a positive against the Winnipeg Jets, who have had the Canucks' number for years. But even with 6 points in their last 5 games, the Canucks haven't made enough of a move up the North Division standings to sufficiently enhance their playoff odds.

This Canucks team Is far to talented to have this season squandered by an Inexperienced coach.

Thanks Carol! Good effort last night, game could have gone either way. If they keep bringing it like that, at least they’ll be fun to watch!

Do we see North division teams getting a premium on players traded in division?

Would Toronto or Edmonton pay more for a player that doesn’t have to wait to cross the border?

Can we finally dump some contracts for a bag of pucks?

But Vancouver still holds five games in hand on Montreal and four on Calgary.

I'm pretty sure "games in hand" are games yet to be played. Like, in your pocket, waiting to be used.

Meaning Calgary has 4 and Montreal has 5.

I’m hoping the market heads up. I could see Pearson or Sutter getting an ok return. Maybe package with JV for a decent asset.

They may want to go a little deeper than Pearson Sutter. Zac has played 12 games . Gauds has 2 goals only. Jake what can you say that hasn't been already said.

Benn is playing good and has no NTC.

Looks like one more tricky off season for the management group and then things should stabilize a bit, provided they don’t do anything stupid between now and then.

Can’t trade away everyone, they’d have no players to finish the season and no matter how hard they try, they aren’t catching Ottawa or Detroit this season.

If JB hangs onto Pearson if/when we're in sell mode, he's an idiot.

Too bad about the OT loss last night, I really like watching the Canucks lately, that is the last half dozen games.

I think if they replace Green with with a more experienced coach, someone that will play with structured systems, and will hold all players accountable. Seems he has a bit of Babcock in him the way he jerks around Virtanen.
