I don't care of the dropback is employed by 98% of the league, its a ####ing stupid play and just lets the defense lineup across the blueline and clog up the entry lanes. This team is just so predictable it hurts. Ward is just a brutal coach who refuses to make adjustments unless a gun is held to his head.

Mix it up - get 2 D men and get a simple PP going.
They don't have any other creative options. What are they going to expect one trick pony, softy Monny to do something creative?

4 min of PP time and our "1" centre doesn't touch the puck. Name me another 1st line centre in the league who's asked to do so little on the PP? Its like playing 4 on 4 till we get it set up and he camps out in the slot waiting for a pass.

Gio’s done boys. Delivered insane value in his contract and is a warrior. But he’s done. It’s painful to watch.

Pretty good IMO. They even had him on PK so trust high in the kid.

Because Giordano scored a goal last game. So obvious next step is to put him on PP1 lol

Johnny has turned the puck over on 5 or 6 PP entries, when he has gained blue line.

That’s on him.

Pbp's arms getting tired yet from pumping the Canucks tires?

Context is clearly lost on them since their season is basically on the ropes here. But you'd think they were in cup contention based on the commentary.

Whoever posts the next GT can consider using tune in to watch time instead of puck drop time.

Team is just playing lazy hockey. Passes are off, they’re not hard on the puck at all, and just generally very little GAF from anyone not named Markstrom or maybe Lindholm. Obviously it’s still anyone’s game but it’s honestly amazing we’re still in this after such a poor effort.

I was good with it when it won the game Vs. the Jets

I've had the game on, but was cooking and eating so I haven't been watching closely. Is Vancouver just getting a ton shots from the outside?

So another potential only 20 min outing. Win the 3rd, win the game.

High Danger are 10-7 Canucks

I have never seen anything like it.

Same mistake 5 times in a row.

Just shocking.
