Luongo boo'd and well deserved...if we can rant about the captain then Luongo is fair game too.

How are we losing this game???????????

ARGH!!!!! Shots 22-5 for the Canucks? Granted I'm only listening to the game but I don't understand how we are losing. I saw the highlights on TSN and that first goal was brutal! It's very frustrating being a Canucks fan these days and possibly more frustrating because I'm no longer in Vancouver and can't even get a grasp on what's plaguing the team.

Here's hoping for a comeback win in the third.

GO CANUCKS GO!

Nashville has FIVE shots. FIVE. 1 2 3 4 5.

HOW ARE WE LOSING?

Maybe now Nonis will finally realize there is a problem and make the necessary changes. If we don't turn this around in the 3rd that could be the season. I know it's early, but right now it seriously looks that way.

shots are 22-5 wow.

I dont think Nashville is trying and they will still get the shutout. this team is not getting it done. They better come out and get 20 shots this period.

so when is it not still early anymore?

One more period.... we need an early lucky bounce and it's a whole new game.

70 games or so, at least if you ask Nonis or AV.

I agree with this. bad thing is we could squeek out a 3-2 win in OT or even in regulation and there would be a success factor to this type of game. then boom they come out next game and same story...

- they just arent coming out strong
- not playing 60 mins
- not getting the bounces


pick our poison...


there hasnt been one consistent game this season and not one consistent player.

Don't know Matty ... It's one of those things I guess ... if you wait too long you will never get back into it ... having said that though ... Levelheaded... in my mind there is no point in having an 82 game season if you are out of it 10 games in. Let's hope you are wrong !!!!!

I agree with the first two, but unless you expect shots from the point to rebound out to players on the perimeter at the same moment that the goaltender falls over behind the net on a regular basis, then the third point is moot.

It's a cliche, but crash the net, have players out front, and you'll score. Noone on the team (sans Burrows) seems to care enough to bother risking their body. Naslund is starting to look like he's playing for the paycheque. It wouldn't surprise me if he left in the offseason. I've been a strong supporter of Naslund for a long time, but he's mailing it in. I am so sick of his useless crap.

How are the Sedins escaping everyone's wrath? Everyone's fixated on Nazzy but early on it seemed like he was actually scoring at a regular rate. I haven't seen many games lately but is he not basically scoring at the same rate of the Sedins right now?

JUGGLING THE LINES

Post by B. Mackin »

Head coach Alain Vigneault’s line-juggling has produced the newly minted SIN line of Henrik Sedin, Brad Isbister and Markus Naslund. Isbister led the Canucks’ in trips to the sin-bin with a pair of second period minor penalties. Daniel Sedin is matched with Ryan Kesler and Taylor Pyatt on the Dan-Ry-Py line.

And to think that I actually predicted a game where the canucks scored 3 goals..... What was I thinking? I honestly don't know who I am most disappointed with right now.... The Sedins, Naslund, Luongo, Mitchell, Bieksa, Ohlund, AV, Nonis and the list goes on......
