Maybe shexy silovs time vs buffs Hate say this, but I'm starting to think maybe the long homestand and plenty of rests are doing more harm than good to this team. Or they are tired from finally having all the practice days... I don't know anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jaimito Posted March 17 Popular Post Share Posted March 17 5 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Nope not at all. The first goal was on Cole blindly throwing it up the boards to no one and then failing to cover anyone. Second goal was a bunch of guys collapsing to the net and just standing there with Caps able to just walk it right in. All in all we really didn’t give up much. Problem is we didn’t create a whole lot either. Lots of zone time but not a lot of pucks to the net. We need more guys to start driving the net. This turning back and passing it around the perimeter or feeding the point every time is not working. Where is the Petey from the LA game that took the puck to the slot and wired it? Give caps some credit. They all back checked really hard and blocked tons of shots. At the end of the day, they wanted this W much more than Nux and it showed. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting emotional because they've had some less than stellar games? Happens. Part of hockey. Words like "epic choke job" ARE emotional. Take it in stride, it's easier. They're fine, they'll be fine. They're not firing on all cylinders right now but they certainly have the ability to. You misunderstand. I'm not denying that I get emotional about games. If you met me, I'm like textbook definition of fanatic. I don't get upset when they give an honest effort and just get beat but when they just don't show up it gets on my nerves. I feel terrible for the fans in the building. My good friend went down from PG tonight with his wife and two young kids for their first live NHL game and were treated to this? That's disrespectful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Joshua - Blueger - Garland can’t get back together quick enough. That line set the tone for us all season. None of those guys are effective without each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern_Nuck Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 (edited) 15 minutes ago, -dlc- said: Oh wow....I've been to games (took my son for part of his Christmas present) and we lost 5-0. Not even a goal to cheer about. This doesn't come CLOSE. We've had some dark times and to compare this is kind of silly in my opinion. Old habits looked like they crept in for long periods tonight and it’s concerning but they still have 12 games or so to address it and correct it. Definitely not the worst game though and I agree with an earlier post I saw you put up with Miller giving it hard, he bobbled the puck a couple times…. But guaranteed if he popped a couple in people wouldn’t leave those crappy comments about him. I thought his level of compete and his drive was high tonight even if he had no puck luck and a couple bobbles. One thing I did notice though, is I think the D is better with Juulson in and Myers out. I think the team will get a boost from Joshua returning either the next game or the game after.

I enjoy watching them too... as long as I don't have to keep thinking about our highest-paid player is playing nowhere near that kind of caliber. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kragar Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Bad icing call was the turning point. Canucks should have been better mentally to not lose their minds after the 1st goal against. With that sloppy play, you could see the 2nd goal coming a mile away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
