Love the passion, love the dedication, but hate at what cost it comes. The fans are clearly the ones that can’t handle any adversity not the team. The team has been great bouncing back. 5 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 1 minute ago, Pycnotic said: First off let’s get this out of the way the officials were definitely punishing them for the comments after the WPG game, that’s obvious. That being said; 2 of the 5 on 3’s we’re legitimate, miller shot the puck over the glass and Blueger high sticked a guy for no reason, the other 2 were terrible calls, the league was sending a message don’t criticize the officials publicly. de smith was garbage again that’s 3 in a row, he has to be better, need to get demko rest down the stretch and can’t have your backup costing you games. the powerplay even though they got 2 was terrible, and when they needed one late in the third was awful, something has to change here I get why tochett didn’t call his timeout of the hat trick as the time to clean up should have allowed them to refocus but then they gave up 2 more right away The 4th line needs to be better Lafferty, Aman and PDG is not working, they haven’t done anything for a while, the Canucks were most successful when they can roll 4 lines, but this line is terrible, time for some changes there Juulsen had another rough game, he needs to sit one out, he went a hit in the corner for no reason and took himself out of the play, then right after makes a terrible pass that ended up in the back of the net, that’s now 2 games in a row where he cost his team the game If they’re going to be that thin skinned maybe they should get a desk job… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this will be a rough last half of the season. Hopefully the Canucks can win at least 8 to 10 games to make it to the playoffs. Other top teams also don't have to deal with the officials trying to hand the other team the game on a regular basis. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance DeSmith was being pulled either, with tomorrow’s tilt with the Avs looming. Edited February 19 by viking mama 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzle Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) 12 minutes ago, Gawdzukes said: @Wing Going to be really interesting to hear RT and players comments after this one. Tocc held back his comments last game. I am very curious as well. Are those 5 on 3 calls on us truly warranted? I need a non Canuck fan's opinion... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Zadorov high stick to the face and the Miller over the glass are 100% penalties, 100% of the time, so yeah. Absolutely warranted. I don't how anyone in the world could even attempt to argue otherwise. The problem is that a couple of the penalties that put us down two men were legit… but the calls that had us down a man already were soft as all getup. getting those initial calls right on the refs part had a massive impact on the outcome of the game. edit: not to mention the fact they didn’t blow the play dead when the puck was covered. That was massive. Edited February 19 by Dizzle 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb Nuck Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 It’s a long season, shit happens, still have way more hope for this team than I did when the season began, it’s been a fun ride and we’re still in 1st.

RU SERIOUS Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 4 minutes ago, Curmudgeon said: That's a really bad idea. Who replaces him? Silovs isn't ready and neither is Topopilo. Every goalie has a stinker once in awhile. DeSmith has been very good all season and you want to dump him after one bad game? Glad you are not running the team. He needs to play more and Demko needs rest more. We might have 50+ more games to go if things go well and we'll need a rested Demko and a sharp Desmith. Goalie mismanagment might be Tock-it's achilles heel in the end! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What agenda?? You can’t handle the fact they didn’t fight through adversity. Was the game over at 6-5??? Is that what you’re saying? They couldn’t get anymore goals to win? Wake up. They could have won. The made it 8-7. You telling they couldn’t have fight through it to win. I know what your agenda is.

It’s the way it is, it’s wrong but they have to be smarter, they already got a target on their backs no need to make it bigger Edited February 19 by Pycnotic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lightning didn’t have Four 5 on 3’s either. We also managed to put up 7 against them. Slightly better goaltending and close to fair reffing and this game easily goes our way. 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team has been great bouncing back. Yep, some fans could not handle being a competitive athlete. We gave up our first lead going into the 3rd of the season. A season where we still sit on top of the entire league. Jumping to cries that we are not contenders, when our record against contenders is pretty good. I feel sad for those fans. Will they ever enjoy the ride? this is a great year...soo much fun. 1 1 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRev Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 You score 7 goals and still lose convincingly. Not a cup contender. DeSmith couldn't stop a beach ball today. Officiating certainly didn’t help, but a loose undisciplined effort. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
