Having Demko down after game 1 of the Nashville series would cripple any team then having Pettersson a ghost for the entire post season then finally losing Boeser was the last straw that broke the Canucks back. Vancouver is going to be a force next season and for the next 2-3 years for sure.

The biggest question facing the Canucks is what the fuck happened to Elias Petterrsson at the all-star game because he's been useless ever since. Potential to be a franchise destroying contract.

Canucks get an A+ for being pure exciting entertainment. If any Canucks fan think the Canucks deserve to win the Stanley Cup this run is clueless and in denial. I'm not clueless but still in denial. That's why it hurt so much like breaking up from a very bad relationship. 😂😂

I'm not interested in why we couldn't beat the oilers in the playoffs. The only question I want answered is WHAT THE HECK happened to this team after the All Star game ? They went from, not being near the top but actually ON the top of every offensive stat, they were the league leaders ! Then afterwards it was like they couldn't score at all. Several guys including our so called best player just slowly stopped scoring just fizzled out. And a few others of course never did score after November/December ( we won't name names but we know who that is). So wtf happened ?

It's actually kind of easy - look at my Oilers. They were BRUTAL to start the year, cost their coach his job they were so bad -but - their goal was to make the SC finals and win. What happens to a Marathon runner who sprints right out of the gate and goes full bore? He / she gets a massive lead on the field, but runs out of gas 2/3rds of the way through the race and never wins it in the end. You need to 'pace' yourself - reg season is a marathon and is full of ups and downs, but you want to be peaking at playoff time. That's part of the teams learning process. Not saying you want to totally crap the bed to start the year like the Oilers did - but you do need to moderate how fast you go. It's pretty obvious to me the Canucks ran out of gas.

Puck Luck. If anyone thought that the victories over the Oilers in October would meant anything when it comes to how a team does in the playoffs, they're delusional. The Canucks had a lot of luck, but luck isn't a strategy--as they found out.

It was a good year and with tons of excitement and high drama. Hats off to the organization. And let's be honest, if someone had told you that the Canucks would lose by 1 goal in game 7 in the second round, and do so essentially without the services of Petterson and Demko, you would have asked the person to repeat what they just said. Let Hronek walk, resign Lindy, Myers, and Big Z if you can. And try to address the Elephant in the room : wtf is going on with EP40? $11+M a year for a guy who gets 1 goal in 13 playoff games? That's a big problem. Confidence issues? Or does Elias need to put 8 to 10 kilos? Should be another interesting Summer with Rutherford at the helm.

Takes more energy to play in the defensive zone than the offensive zone. Too much time in their end over 2 series. Canucks just ran out of gas for that reason.

i believe that if we had Demko,and Petey playing good this is a different series that being said ,our power play is fkin terrible all that talent and couldn't even get over the blue line that's a fault we need to fix.I think that we have a great management group that will keep adding to make this team much better. If you look at what they have done so far NHL team is heading in the right direction and the AHL team is full of really good prospects and made the playoffs also.Once they get the CAP under control will help .We may have lost in 2nd round but many had us not making the playoffs and we not only did that but won the division .this was a surprise year for sure, gonna be hard to do again but we are heading to the top and this time next year will be kicking everyone to curb lol GO CANUCKS GO

I’m definately not a petey hater. But some fans need to stop defending him.

Canucks had a great first half of the season and sort of played ok hockey from there on. Tocchet style of hockey wore them down essentially as it was evident throughout the latter part of the season and playoffs. Maybe a better physio team to keep em in shape especially EP.

Why was Canucks defensive strategy to be non existent in the neutral zone, and back up quickly over their blue line putting up zero resistance to attackers? I hope they don’t try that shit again next year. Also the forwards have zero chemistry on the rush, and clearly have no idea what to do. Probably less than 5 good opportunities on the rush between 1st and 2nd round. Pretty sad

@alanpaul9481

12 күн бұрын

Because the Kings were aggressive in the neutral zone and got decimated by the Oilers puck skill at speed. Canucks tried to clog up the rush, and largely were able to. They forced Edmonton to win different, with defense and greasy goals. Edmonton just had a little more in the tank.

Worth noting: Boeser was -2 in game six, and admitted that he played a horrible game. Players play hurt all the time in the playoffs, and sometimes they can't play. That's the deal for every single team. Marchand, Matthews, McDavid, they've all played with issues. But only the Canucks want to raise Boeser as some kind of lose that explains why they averaged 16 shots a game over the last two games, why the lost 3 of the last 4 games and why the universe just isn't fair. The Canucks blew every PP in game 7. That had nothing to do with Boeser, and everything to do with the Edmonton PK. Sometimes you need to credit the other team when you get your ass handed to you.

Lindholm is a keeper!

I would trade Petterssen, Demko, Mikheyev for Brady Tkachuk and Chychrun. This would give the Canucks an out on Pettersson's contract and get a player with heart and soul back. The trade makes sense for Ottawa as they would get a number one goalie. The Canucks could use the extra cap money to sign Zadorov and a couple of other players.

Canucks should sign Johnny Coconut from the wild goose league..he could be a bargain
