now that those closest to situation have had their say — some confirmed, some denied — time to move past the drama and focus attention on #Canucks play on the ice. It hasn’t been good enough, often enough of late (1W in 5/2W in 8). Best way for team to change the narrative is to play better & win

4-3-4 in the month of December if I’m not mistaken. Hoping they can turn things around after the Christmas break.

Probably the only reason that this wasn’t a story last year too

3-9 OT record left points on the table with the offensive firepower the Canucks can ice. It's hard to criticize Pettersson for that record when he didn't see the ice in ot last night and Soucy played more in ot the previous ot loss in Utah. Be better Coach Tocchet. #canucks
reply
yeah, 3-6 in games decided in OT/3-7 with shootout loss to Philly. So 7 points left on the table. Definitely not great, but not 9…yet
reply
Sorry, typo, shoulda flipped the 9.

Yeah I'm worried it's gonna keep getting worse. Tocchet keeps preaching execution when it is obviously a deployment problem too. It's not one thing.
reply
can’t throw a blanket over their OT issues. Some are failing to convert chances. Others are not generating chances or getting saves. Or missing assignments. Or losing face-offs. But through it all, simply need to be better and find a way

That’s part of what I’m talking about tonight.

Best thing I've seen all day.

Hockey players are human beings. Can we hold ourselves accountable to the level we expect our sports heroes to be at. Probably not. Cut them a break.

I can’t speak for all ticket purchasers, but it’s fair to expect value for significant money paid to watch this team. I understand those that don’t feel they’re getting money’s worth. So that’s the standard I’d use
reply
It's a sport you pay to go see.
They win some, they lose some 🤷🏻‍♂️

the angst in the market has far more to do with the process than the results. Results are out of individual players’ control. Effort isn’t
reply
I totally agree with your take. Hard to argue. I just question who people are pointing at that aren’t “putting in an effort?” I’m not talking about points - I’m talking about effort. Petey - he is NOT performing. Miserable. But I don’t think I can agree with you that he’s not trying
reply
A lot of the angst is driven by certain Canucks media & social media & their narratives. Companies need to keep readers/listeners engaged if they want to make money.
reply
hey if you think all is well with a team that has 2W in 8 games and stars that are ice cold, enjoy. Not here to change your mind. I prefer to deal in reality
reply
Yes they win some, lose some, but the main issue is HOW they lose some. if no effort or lackluster effort, then the paying customer has a legit beef.
reply
Thanks JPat, let's focus on hockey.
