People should be looking for just small improvements in their play, not a complete turnaround. That’s not going to happen in short order. I only watched the third but saw some good things, small things, but good things. - LeftCoaster
I was watching for poor line changes, I didn't see any. Baby steps.
No, I'm not" you guys " I love my canucks and believe in my boys to find away, but if change need be, I hope and pray for the team to come together, EP might be good enough to get a bunch of guys to rally around, .
Why has Boston been so good? Players see greatness in Bergeron, and play for him, cup winning teams rally around their great players.
Look no farther then the Oilers, arguably, they have the 2 top forwards in the NHL, yet no playoff success. Team is everything In The NHL - onesmallleap
Agree, I just happen to think Hughes is a lot better than you seem to think he is. I think he’s one of the guys you’re talking about.
Is including a 3rd round pick to take his whole cap hit and possibly taking an expiring contract too much ?? - onesmallleap
Yes. They’d just ride it out & try an offseason trade when teams have cap options. Right up to the ‘24 TDL even to let him up his value if needed. Next season won’t be the time to go for it unless somehow the entire roster somehow turns itself around & makes the PO’s without shortcuts.

Same only the 3rd. Saw some high energy play & good PK kills.

Thanks New Guy
Told yea Bo wasn't the dude to pull people over the line. Don't think JT is either. but I would vote him as the guy who yells at whoever doesn't cross the line.
No idea what Bel Biv Da Beauvillier brings to the table. I leave that knowledge to the roster smarties.
