So disappointing. Oilers, Sharks, Kings win and Flames looking like they will too. Canucks could be in last place in the division tomorrow at this time. I didn't expect this.

Brock gets his 100th. I would have rather seen him punch that Oiler in the head for shoving his stick down the ice. Show some growl. This teem needs more growl, grit, tenacity and most of all structure. This game was horrible.

Buy better sticks, Petey. You can afford them...!!

Mr Aquilini was assured when you trade your first round pick two years in a row and are aggressive in the offseason swinging deals and spending to the cap it wouldn't be this way. Damn it, it's not supposed to be like this!

The boss is bound to be in a bad mood tonight.

When Green was extended I was bracing for this but hoping for bounce back from a few guys.

When Petey and Hughes held out and missed training camp and pre-season I was concerned that hope had been erroneous.

After the season opener I fully expected what we see right now.

I was in the clean house camp in the off-season, it was a big mistake to extend him. Heading into tonight I was sure a blowout loss would have sealed Green's fate, but as Meg said, the boss will be in a foul mood after this one, so it could still happen.

I’m beginning to think the “dump and don’t chase” and the “fly by forecheck” strategies might not be working?
Talk about a team that puts no pressure in the offensive zone until the last five minutes when they’re behind.
Good thing there’s no grit left on the team. That would have just screwed up the whole team strategy.

Well, at least My superpower still works. :hmmm:

Time to depress Benning. Suck it up and fire the coach.

They’ve honestly stunk for most of the nine games they’ve played. No speed, no puck pressure, no physicality, no attention to detail. They look terrible.

#Canucks have been defeated in regulation in three consecutive home games to start the 2021-22 season.

That hasn't happened to the Canucks franchise in 37 years, since the 1984-85 season when Bill LaForge was head coach.

Damning and remarkable.
Oh my.

Mr Aquilini will need to hear some reassuring talking from Jimmy tonight.

This is the hard part of the job, but Jimmy handles it with rare skill. A lesser man could not protect Greener's job in this situation.
