Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

I’m content with moving Boeser this off season :D :lol: The inevitable adjustment! Watching Lafferty, Mikheyev, and Suter bobble passes and shoot in to the goalies chest for the past few months has been a treat. Can't wait to get rid of Boeser so we can go from having one top six wing to having zer...

In the light of day, I'm a little less concerned than I was last night. But, I do have 2 concerns, though - the power play and DeSmith's rebound control. Last night was a great example of one team sticking to its game plan, while the other team looked lost. The Canucks held the play for most of the...

Finally something to rally around!

A ton of passes a foot off the mark have been a killer to any momentum

trying to cling on to the day-to-day hope!

If he's just out one game I think there's nothing to panic over. But this isn't sounding like it's that simple

great game last night but the same two common problems rearing their ugly heads again - - losing the special teams battle. this pretty much sums up the year 2024 for the team. hard to see us going very far this year if this is the case, yet somehow we just can't seem to figure it out. On the power p...

I know Podz hasn't turned in to the scorer most expected but his rookie season he had 26 points, 14 of those goals. He looked like a guy who could play in the league. This years almost-literally-no-offence is more of an outlier, not the player we have. Him with Miller and Boeser is a great idea.. ii...

I think I read somewhere they were targeting Saturday for Demko.. but that would be the oilers and sounds crazy. I hope I just made that up.

all a much easier problem to deal with when Kuz was still considered a 40 goal scorer..

Something has to give though - we can't keep shipping out 39 & 40 goal scorers for hopes and dreams that someone will fill their spot. Scoring has been a bit of an issue since the break, and likely going forward as the bottom 6 was playing way outside their ability. I get the cap issues, but scorer...

Re-sign Markstrom (without an NMC). 15 months from now decide which one of Marx/Demko you want to protect. We're going to lose an asset in the X-draft, if they choose the goalie we don't protect, fine. Exactly right, we’re gonna lose somebody, no point in doing something stupid like Florida, if the...

I don’t get this. Why is everyone so sure they will absolutely pick a goalie from Vancouver? :| If Marky is exposed, I believe he will be the best exposed goalie by a long shot. If Demko is looking like he's ready to be a full-time starter in 21/22, he will likely be the best exposed goalie. Every ...
