Everyone talks about the Calgary incident being the reason they started to go down the drain, but really, before that they were starting to completely go off the rails(the Anaheim 9-1 game)

The prevailing comments on Twitter from Canucks fans seems to be : "so this is what it's like being an Alberta hockey fan"

Misery loves company.

Since the break, the Flames and Oilers have three combined wins while the Canucks have 5 in the last 25 games overall

EDIT: Make that four combined wins for the Flames and Oilers since the break(Oilers just won in OT)

Indeed. Western Canada are seeing some dark days NHL wise. Really, all three of us are just poorly run franchises

Yeah I think it might be time to take the dynamite to the Canucks. what a gong show

A day late for that sentiment.

2nd game in a row I have turned off before the halfway mark.
You are losing me, Canucks. After 40 years.

i watched the whole thing, Im looking for new ways this team can lose. but the saddest part is it the same way every game now

cant score, give up immediately. they are checked the fuck out. I still cant believe that no other moves were made to influx any spark. good luck trying to sell this team to the ticket holders next year. I think gillis is gassed by the playoffs, and I honestly could see a new GM making full coaching changes, Torts and crew aint the full cause but that system sure as hell destroyed any chemistry these players used to have with each other. and no Im not blaming coaching but its partly at fault here

Thats alot of money for Aquilini to pay out ... i doubt that cheap bastard makes it happen ... this is the guy who didnt want to buy out ballard ... plus Gillis saved Aquilini 24 million on a luongo buyout

yeah you know I never thought of that. I remember when I first met Aquilini at the canucks season ticket holder event when he bought the team, he was making his rounds came to me and introduced himself and asked how long I had been a fan and ticket holder, I told him, he asked me whats the one thing you want from a NHL owner, I said dont meddle, let the hockey people do their thing and this team would succeed, the fan base want only that.

well here we are . I think for the most part he did let the hockey team be a hockey team, then the money came in hand over fist and now he cant let go of anything, this cash cow is getting thin

Kassian to have a phone hearing today for the hit from behind on Dillon.

Kassian to have a phone hearing today for the hit from behind on Dillon.

and deserved, that was just plain stupid, I hope its not massive for his future hearings but Im thinking 3 games. maybe an extra one for throwing his bucket down the ice like a child

edit: actually the bold was a silly statement and Ill leave it in to own up to it, that hit was just stupid, I dont know what to make of this kid his intelligence level is far from a level I can understand.
