Well the new coach bump certainly didn't last long.

The rules are setup to incentivize tanking. No shame in playing by the rules.

I used to think like you, but strategically tanking is a smart move.

It’s funny how GMs think Canadian fans don’t have patience for a tank and rebuild, yet most teams clamour for one.

BC man’s obituary takes final parting shot at his beloved Canucks

Quote:
“Russell would’ve liked to have had six of the Vancouver Canucks to be his pallbearers so they could have let him down one more time,” the final line of the obituary reads

Tocchet is going to be a GREAT coach for the tanking Canucks. He's absolutely brutal

Rumor of Boston being hot and heavy for horvat. With Carlo and his 17 concussions part of package going back to Vancouver! That would be a disaster of a trade.

Ultimately not a huge loss but still funny because the Canucks apparently would have liked to keep him but the complete opposite result from their prediction happened. Pederson was playing with Pettersson on the same line but only had 3 points in 11 games, but from what my buddies tell me, Allvin wanted to continue him on that line but waived him because he wouldn't get picked up and wanted to let him play in the AHL all star game.

Wait.... He was sent down for the AHL All-Star Game and got claimed? That's hilarious.

That's what my friends mentioned, not sure if accurate. But funny if it is!

This is pretty funny. Skip to 2:00 if you want to bypass the game recap.



I totally missed Miller spazzing out and Kuzmenko's reaction. It seems pretty obvious that there is division in that locker room and they need to get rid of Miller.

Seravalli definitely likes to stir up drama for clicks, but the man is a legit insider

Might be time to following canucks media on twitter. This team is shooting itself in the foot over and over.

Like how can you keep Miller on the team?
What an awkward situation. I love it!!
