Are Canucks ok?

[Good-life]

Starting from 1st game's question: They need a 2nd line Centre. Now they need 1st line center.. F. Chytil, E. pettersson are all 2nd line centers.
Canucks have two of the best goalies and best defensemen in the groups. Tell Allvin what else they need to make the playoff.

As long as aqualoonie is owner, we ain't winning jack

Guys too content with mediocrity... Shuda listen to linden, Kesler and torts who said we needed a rebuild

500 team again at best. As long as there are bums in the seats and boxes, this team will meander along at mediocrity. Seems like regression compared to two years ago.

Best Canucks so far: Kiefer Sherwood = he needs a new contract.

The Canucks are the West coast equivalent of the Maple Leafs. As long as the people show up, there is no incentive to put in any additional effort.

It took my favorite team 7 years to get out of a rebuild this year.

Will Vancouver fans accept one that is similar. Quinn Hughes is not sticking around for that.

Demmer is hurt. Chytil is hurt. The always injured guys are injured again. This was predictable and the management is ridiculous for not expecting it. Clearly, without these two, plus other injuries, this team will miss the playoffs by a half dozen points and end up with a shit draft pick. Again. Either fix it or tank and rebuild. Enough of the same thing and expecting different results. Ownership is ultimately to blame, the Aquilini's are the worst owners in the league. This century's Harold Ballard.

I was a Habs fan until the Canucks came into being when I was 10 years old.

This is why you don't make life altering decisions as a 10 year-old.

It's a good year to tank and trade off assets,strong draft this year .
Why would Hughes want to stay in this shit show?

 

[Big Dick Bob]

They need to tank this season and try and get McKenna.

didn''t Trevor Linden suggest a rebuild and they fired him?

Anaheim's rebuild took 7 years, now they are so good they are in 1st place without Gudas, Strome, and Garlund playing. You think this hockey mad market owner's will bear that kind of rebuild. No, they will continue to patch and repair and be stuck in the middle.

Pretty much sums up the.direction of the organization at this point. Time for the paper bag over head schtick to appear in the stands. Maybe a few jerseys landing on the ice again. Seems to get ownership attention pretty quick. The Aquilini's have had their fun - sell the franchise.

Hughes will leave. He wants to join his bros in NJ. No reason to stay with a rudderless organization thanks to the Aquabums.

They have sucked since 2012 except the regular season of 2023-2024. I thought that it was going to be the turn around but looks like it was just a blip.

I don't know why they're so scared of a rebuild. They haven't been contenders since 2012.

I'm half expecting signs saying "Give Hughes Parole!"
