Coaching

After hearing Ricky's post game comment "I'm sure the guys are in the room pissed at themselves" and previous comments about not having to say anything in the room because the leadership guys had it. Lots of comments blaming guy's execution.

It is reminiscent of the late days of AV.

Is Gonchar still making regular visits to Vancouver for coaching or has the D fallen all to Foote? I have heard little of Gonchar this season though he is still listed on the staff. There is no shortage of coaching to be done with Vancouver's defense.

How much of Ricky's previous roll been handed to Yogi?

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Well, games like that happen when you have 25 million in salary sitting out.

Just checking the standings, I was a little surprised to find that we have a .600 winning pct.

Maybe we should dial it down a little, especially given the key injuries at moment.

Pettersson is a week away from returning.

Hughes now listed as week-to-week.

This could get really fun.

Haven’t been to a game since the home opener last season. 8-1 thumping or McDraiHyman-Hopnurse. Was epic.


Games aren’t worth the investment anymore. I’m still a season ticket holder in name, but I sell my entire season to my friends’ business. We had 2 seats each that were beside each other when we first became season ticket holders in 2014, I was going to cancel them but my friend wanted to keep 4 seats in a row. So that’s where it’s at.

That’s too bad. Was hoping for a chance to see a loathing 7 ft Chinese dude accidentally being caught on a broadcast banging on the glass and screaming obscenities at the 11.6 golden child.

I thought that was Mëds, the fat Asian kid they kept cutting to in hope they'd catch him picking his nose.

You mean shoveling his nose.

I remember SKYO kept trying to sell me dream catchers and smoked salmon at the Sky Train Staion.

Are you implying Mëds' loathing is unconscious and unintentional? Hmmm... maybe overtones is the correct term?

Wouldn't it be something if Mëds was caught yelling, "Go back to Sweden, you, you, you.... whitey!" on Canucks' Diversity Night?
