Even with a winking nod to diesel-guzzling Tankinen's contribution to the team's lottery odds, at what point does such atrocious goaltending become corrosive to learning and development of the youngsters?
Gimme more Meriläinen. He's bad, but he's not that bad.

If/When Demko returns, Lanks is in the press box.
Hell at this point, we could play 750 hockey and still be in last place at the end of the year.

I went to TSN to check goalie stats, and subconsciously read "trade tracker" as "tank tracker". My reaction was "that's a bit harsh" followed by disappointment that it didn't take me to the Canucks team page.

Re: Canucks News N Notes 26-27
It's been a while since they were THIS bad.
I mean, even the year they drafted the Sedins, the Canucks still racked up 23 wins. Can anyone tell me with a straight face that they'll even win that many??

Not when every start Diesel gets is 6 goals against.
