The last time I checked, Goldobin cannot play defense. If the Canucks lose tonight, it has to with the defense, not offense. Goldobin will never be able to help in the department.
Yeah, the loss has nothing to do with the fact we can't score more than them. It is only that we let them score more....

Depends on which side of the coin you look at.
Did you watch the game? Pouliot singlehandedly loses this game. What makes you think that a lazy player like Goldobin would be able to do? Give you a freaking second assist? He is no Bure nor Mogilny. Just wake up and smell the coffee.
It was far from single-handed. Also interesting that you don't think scoring more goals would help.

I think Goldobin would be able to put up points. He is still 4th in that department notwithstanding the number of games he has been sitting in the press box.

If you think all of those points are all secondary assists, perhaps some smelling salts are in order?
You’re conversing with a guy who thinks Erik Gudbranson is the second coming of Scott Stevens.

He watches a different game... at the very least he watches it through a different lens

At least I am stupid enough to think Goldobin is the second coming of Bure or Mogilny or thinking that every player should be playing for 800k.

Well that is your prerogative if you do think that. I, however, don't think any of those things.

Greener luvs watching Poo fly all over the place and stinking up the joint. :lol:

Man, I miss the Porn Scag. Heck, I'd take our previous #5, the Pizza-Man over our current one. I bet the Bull-Dawg is hungry to get some games, just play him or one of our other RS D on the left side for a few games.

It's going to be a long break, going to get my Knucklehead withdrawals again. Our guys could probably use the R&R though, come back and battle hard into the playoff stretch.

Have to think a coupe of changes in 10 days?
I guess this break is official time off. I didn't know that. Didn't use to be.
Shit; I'd have these guys on the ice at least 2 times, closed to the press, just getting the game back in order.
Things have been leading up to this score-board disaster for a few games, you could see it but until to-nite, they've been lucking out.

I turned the game off. What happened?

By the way, someone else needs to step up and do the next GDT. I lost :oops:

Well that was ugly, exposed many warts. Carolina plays the new NHL game as good as any, that’s a good team or a good team in the making, play that same Tampa Bay Lightning tempo, fast and they keep pouring it on

Petey is not quite as sharp, missing as many games as he has will do that, but with that, still amazes

Still concerned with Horvat, he’s good for spurts but if this guy wants to be considered elite, he needs to figure out how to keep his motor going consistently

Boeser is skating much better

Virtanen, I think we’ve are all gotten to know his max ceiling. The new Jim Sandlak, high draft pick power forward always leaving you wanting more out of him but never getting it, just once in awhiles when the stars align for him, he’s definitely not the master of his own destiny

Can’t get Hughes skating and ice vision here soon enough

Pouliot - the good and the bad in one. Greener has a soft spot for his former Winterhawk pupil

It’s time to see what we have in McEwan. Tired of listening to everyone rave about him

The top 6 needs another fast, skilled player

Wingers and Defence - 2019 draft

If this team goes into next season without Edler and Tanev it will be an unmitigating disaster. See Edmonton Oilers

The forwards terrible back checking and D-zone support for their defenders is fucking awful, getting heavily exposed

I’m done with a Sutter, too slow, soft and vanilla for the new NHL. He’s inflicted with the Garrison casualness, fuck off, bring up the firey Gaudette or McEwan

Granlund - see Sutter

Canuck Management - if last nights test and the game Carolina plays wasn’t an eye opener and barometer for you for where we are and where we got to get to, then I don’t know what is

The rebuild isn’t over Francesco Aqualini - Don’t be a meddling silver spooned twat - you weekend warrior hockey fan

Bo needs a good running mate. It still may be Virtanen but I’m less sure of that than I was six weeks ago. I have long thought Jaden Schwartz would be a good linemate for Bo but he has been battered with injuries the past few years. Not sure if he still has the goods.

Need more speed, need more D men and definitely need more tenacity

If Bo wants to be considered a legitimate 2nd line centre he needs to work on his tempo that sustains him for an entire shift. IMO his patented bull rushes where he tries to beat d-men out wide to get a shot in net completely gas him and isn’t working anymore. He needs to figure his shit out, use his line mates more, work smarter not harder.

It’s never a good sign when we start blaming line mates or lack thereof instead of the player himself. With Pettersson you could stick a fire hydrant on his line it don’t matter, he still produces

Like Ferland their injury history are way too concerning
