Hasn't been a fun season that's for sure. We Canuck fans keep waiting for guys like Booth to start earning their contract and it just isn't happening. The core is getting older and it looks more and more like 2011 was this team's chance and they blew it.
The future looks ugly for this team. I think most of us are just hoping we can sneak into the playoffs with a healthy team and see if they can put it all together when it counts this one last time. The regular season means jack to this team after winning 2 President's Trophies and no Cups.
Also they have been pretty bad at home the last little while when it counts...for example Game 7 to Boston, and all 3 home games last year against LA in round 1. Home Ice just doesn't mean what it used to for them so just sneak in and see what happens....
