Game was lost in the first two mins of third 

 

Uncharacteristic.  Usually they get a better third.  

 

Lick their wounds and start a new win streak..

 

Lot of div games that really matter coming up. Dux, Vegas, flames.   

 

 

 

 

Maybe this loss is the one that makes them realize they can lose

Anyone else think they should scratch Pettersson and Miller? I think they’re badly injured. 

Petey, yes. But I don't think he's injured. I just think he stinks right now. 2 days off and we play 7 of our next 8 at home. Maybe he can play through it now that we don't travel much for the next 3 weeks. I'd scratch him just to send a message though. But not at home. Lol. Fans won't like that.

Extremely embarrassing loss but I'm of two minds.

 

One is that they honestly had a ton of chances, more high danger chances than SJ for, and were very unlucky not to score on more than a few of them. A couple bounces & its an entirely different game. 

 

The downside is SJ clearly wanted it more than we did from start to finish, and our luls allowed them to take it. Then of course just that we lost to one of the worst teams in NHL history.

 

I dunno, credit to SJ. Maybe we need this wake-up call.

I bet they also think that they might drive Petey out of vancouver if they scratch him

Petey isn't his normal self and has not been for some time now. Not sure about Miller.

 

Team is going nowhere without their top 2 centermen, though. That's guaranteed.

3 lucky assists his play was dogshit for the most part. If it wasn’t he would have tied it with that prime chance at the end. 

 

Bud he is 4th in league scoring. He had a off night and still got 3 "lucky" points. All the good he has done this year, and your going with dogshit comments with a game???. Its bedtime son.

Are you really going to compare probably the best team ever assembled to the Canucks?

The topic was good teams don't play .500 hockey. The 85 Oilers were a great team that played .500 for a month. Things can be brought up while not being a direct comparison. 
 

Are the Canucks as good as the 2010 Hawks? No, but they had a stretch of 10 straight losses that year.  So good teams do have poor stretches while not being a direct comparison…
