The lone bright spot all season - Hoglander. Too bad he has to experience this

At least we didn't get beat by Spezza alone.

... but what about a few years from now when Petey/Huggy are in their prime?

I’m just glad he didn’t ruin his trade value by getting injured tonight. Brave by him.Megaterio Llamas wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:36 pm Yep Jakey was in the lineup for this one.
Confirmed sighting skating off at the end of the game there...

Take a step back, get one more top draft pick, come back next year with a real coach.

Yup, Toffoli I wanted, but Marky and Tanev were the right moves for the long game.Strangelove wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:42 pmThat would have made the Canucks better this seasonChef Boi RD wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:36 pm The money that went to Virtanen, Schmidt and Holtby I’m sure could have made it possible for us to sign Markstrom, Tanev and Toffoli.

even if we didn't lose toffoli, marky, tanev,
with the way this team has been playing will lead to the same shit we are seeing
The veterans and top players for whatever reason are not playing NHL level hockey

This game was mostly on Demko, with an assist to JT. This should have been much closer if Demko was sharp, or the coach had been bright enough to make an early pull.CrzyCanuck wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:47 pmnobody expects to win this season docStrangelove wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:31 pmWho wants to win in an asterisk season??Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:17 pm The losses are just too lopsided, something is wrong with this group.

JT has been making lazy and sloppy plays this season
Something is off
Most of players can't make simple good passes too

We still have a lot of shitty contracts coming off the books over the next 2 seasons that would’ve off set the signings of Tanev, Markstrom and ToffoliStrangelove wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:42 pmThat would have made the Canucks better this seasonChef Boi RD wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 6:36 pm The money that went to Virtanen, Schmidt and Holtby I’m sure could have made it possible for us to sign Markstrom, Tanev and Toffoli.

Patience is key.
Markstrom - $6 million per
Holtby - $4.3 million per
Tanev - $4.5 million per
Schmidt - $5.95 million per
Toffoli - $4.25 million per
Virtanen - $2.6 million per
Markstrom, Tanev and Toffoli cost $1,825,000 million more per season than Schmidt, Holtby and Virtanen. Are you telling me we couldn’t have found a way to find that extra $1,825,000 million per. Very bad choice by Benning IMO
