When You’re The NHL’s Biggest ‘Circus’



#nhl #hockey #vancouvercanucks

This is the Vancouver Canucks. To say that parts of this season has been a circus, may honestly be an understatement. After being one win away from going to the conference final last season, many expected the Canucks to take another leap. But things took a turn. A massive rift between two of their superstar centres became a distraction so large that it directly led to one of them being dealt. Now – the canucks are in a dog fight to try and squeak into the playoffs. It has been a rollercoaster of a season where at times, they look completely broken. But can they somehow find a way? Or will they fall short? Let’s take a deeper look.

  1. How do you not even fking mention how bad the injuries were this year? Literally every main core guy was out for an extended period. Canucks medical staff and management are awful. Petey was on fire and now he’s out for some time, shit sucks

  2. Stars breakdown video title: “When you’re the odds on favorite to win the cup and not even at full strength”

  3. Was trying to watch to enjoy Vancouvers suffering as an Oilers fan, but when you were breaking down the problems offensively and defensively I just kept thinking the Oilers are making the exact same mistakes and the regression from last season is maybe equal to the Canucks, the Oilers just started in a slightly more favorable position before the regression

  4. Rantonen's issues in Carolina seem to be exactly the same as those with Petterson. In certain cases, coaches must modify a team's tactics and style of play to fit the player rather than the other way around.

  5. how many bad bounce, bad deflections have caused them points. Alot of them caused by bad defense Hronik!!!

  6. I feel like we can have a shot with how some of the rookies are playing this season. Maybe next season or the season after we could see this team be better

  7. Well, the good thing is that EP40 is willing to adjust and is trying hard to. Rantanen did not want to adjust at all. In the end, the combination of Pettersson's east-west/hold the puck style with Tocchet's South-North "move your feet, shoot the puck, crash the net" style may work out for the better in 2-3 years. It may make EP40 more complete.
    Let's hope Vancouver makes the playoffs and that Elias is back 100% healthy in the playoffs.
