A loss tonight will pretty well do it. Especially if Phoenix wins.
The only HW the Canucks need

There simply is no 4th line on this team. They can't even play 30 seconds against the other team's 4th line without giving up chances or taking a penalty. There's no choice but to overplay everyone else.

I've questioned why Sestito is even in the line-up on most nights and Schroeder is always going to have problems in the NHL as a center.

Edit: Way to go Tom.

That goal is 100% on Kesler... For handing Edler his stick, with the expectation that he would use it.

Seriously though... Kesler almost cut off the pass with his hand... Probably could have had it if he hadn't wasted his stick on Edler.

Agreed, Edler is HORRIBLE.

Really starting to make me puke...

You deserve Image one Sestito for your anti-Sestito comments.

Alex Edler is the reason why this team sucks.

its pure genius playing Jensen with Sestito on the 4th line. Sestito did score 40 goals in the OHL one season, he may find his scoring touch again

Edler is a major reason why this team sucks. Playing this system requires some edge and hockey intelligence... something quite a few on this team seriously lack.

I know! That's what I said. I blame the plague on him, too!

4th line? I'd take a second line in a heartbeat!

Maybe not the plague but wouldn't surprise me if the measles outbreak was due to his crap play.

Some of you guys went on about Ballard's minor hiccups while playing a minor role and minutes. This is Edler's third straight year of making boneheaded, egregious mistakes game after game. Big minutes with a large number of fuck-ups every night is not a recipe for success. Why not double up on that and pair him with another high-minute hockey genius in Bieksa? What, you mean someone actually thought that was a good idea?

This guy has to go... for his own sake. There is no reclamation.

Fuck me. I am a broken man. Broken by a minor league hockey team.

I wonder if Blobby JaegerBombs still blames the Canucks woes on Giggles Vigneault?

Lundquist looks like he has a pair of balls on his chin. Seriously, look at a close up of his mask.
