It's funny how we went from such a high to such a low... 

We were so fast, playing with pace, top 3 scorers in the league... 

Now it's frustrating and anger lol. 

Like how can they be so good and so bad? 

Because the Defensive Structure has never been fixed. 

Scoring hides a lot from fans but if you played this game in the higher tiers you could see this coming a mile away.

We're a ways away but we've made some good steps. 

 

Tonight was a step back though. 

 

Core needs to be better and also obviously needs more help which they should get eventually.

 

The next offseason will be huge yet again. Hopefully, they can get some playoff experience this year though.

DO you think the coaching has been good. Vegas just showed how many defensive holes this team has who's fault is that

That’s one way to lose your fan base…

 

let everyone down like that…

 

The no show Can-nots…

 

way to crap the bed 

 

instead of rising up 

 

Vegas had played 3 games in 4 nights and you made them look like they were fresh as daisies 

 

I hope they wake up soon and get it together… they lose go San José and now this… 

 

they are in a free fall by the looks of it… staring slow is their pattern and playoff teams don’t do this… they have a lot to learn and they aren’t a young team anymore… 

 

Vegas’ last 10 games were worse than us - they crapped the bed 

 

someone needs to light a fire under this team

 

losing Suter and Sousey really messed us up…

Tocchet's response to this game

 

"Playoff teams don't play like this at home"

 

All words no action by the coach

He should put on the skates and go out there on the ice, try to score a couple of goals. He'd at minimum stay on his feet more than Petey.

We've been through 3 coaches with this core. Only one of them was offensively minded in Boudreau, yet we've continued to have poor defensive performances.

 

Personnel and team composition are a bigger issue IMO. 

 

A lot of that can't be solved quickly because of the cap.

Allvin needs to pull another rabbit out for the forward group. Not enough depth to hang with Vegas unless everyone is playing great

Next 20 games try out existing depth and younger players.  Lots of things have gone right this year and now we need a young player to step up and be really good.

What is supposed to put on a jersey and skates and get out there on the ice? The players were supposed to play the coach is supposed to tell them what to do

 

all he can do is talk…

 

The game is played by the players last time I checked…

The team is fine as it is made up.

The Problem is The Canucks keep hiring non winning inexperience Head coaches.

I don't know if depth is the problem to be honest.

 

The 3rd & 4th lines have been our best lines in the last few games. Tonight that 3rd line generated more good chances than the top lines did.

 

They just need to learn that not every team is Anaheim / San Jose whom you can eventually overwhelm with pure skill.

Vegas played a smart defensive game. They got into the faces of our players. Man to man coverage. They Hit us they finished their checks they kept there stick on the ice and in-between passing lanes.

Unserious group.

 

They continue to not show up for the start of games, periods, shifts. They just piss away games at this point, and it starts right with the star players right now. The core 4 have to better. Simple as that. 

You're right. There is no excuse for not showing up. I mentioned that in the first period intermission. 

 

We were getting outworked and there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to come out and match that intensity. 

 

They keep talking about being "professional"... so? 

 

Look, there's a lot of good things happening now, but - these guys need to learn how to play hard consistently. 

 

Obviously, there will be lapses, like Vegas, until they played us, but you've got bring it 90% of the time. Yeah, it's a long schedule, but...
