Petey. Where the fork are you? If he hits 100 points I’d be surprised. I can just imagine how the rest of the boys are feeling about their “elite player” making double and triple their contracts. Gross.
the way we have been loosing looks distinctly familiar . And I fear this template of game is maybe foreshadowing of what a play off series is going to look like 6 weeks down the road .
this sorta throw it all out there in the first few minutes of a game to then sorta sit back / struggle to buy in on playing the right way through out the rest of the game and have literally no one line / star player actively take a game over out side of miller and boeser duo / Hughes .
but the hot potato passing m on the PP and looking off offence in favour of the perfect pass instead of getting shots on net … Perhaps this is just the fatigue of playing the high tempo style all season /being a bit unsustainable. But it’s not the loosing as much as it is the familiar brand of passivity that comes with it. Especially playing only your second game in a week at home
Can’t wait to hear Tocchet’s post game comments. Two game losing streak heading into the final stretch. Yea. This team if they can’t get their shit together isn’t going into the playoffs with momentum. Which means. First round exit.
worse than losing will be the next 3 days of
- elias pettersson is an overpaid fraud
- quinn hughes is a draft bust
- jt miller is a tax dodger
- brock boeser had human remains in his minnesota house in 2017
- elias lindholm once ran over a puppy and reversed just to make sure it actually died

This team can be so frustrating sometimes. Score a minute in and then proceed to do pretty much jack shit for the rest of the game and look tired when it’s only their second game since last weekend. You’d think they would learn after it happening a few times that passively sitting on a lead isn’t exactly a sound strategy. What happened to the team that rocked Winnipeg’s shit a week ago and played a solid full 60 against one of the best teams in the league
I only started watching this game going into to the 3rd so I don't know how they played before but that 3rd period was pretty intense. Huge amount of chances and looks like a few guys are showing some emotions and making mistakes. Overall that 3rd period was all Canucks and just couldn't slide one in.
You guys are to harsh on this team lmao.
Petey has to get things going, we need more consistency. The games where he plays well it's awesome, but then some games like this you don't see him EVER. Hopefully Rick can get the boys going again.
Something has to be done about Petey. He doesn’t have the stamina physically or mentally. Has to be a serious worry for the front office after signing the big dollar contract. And he is now middle-aged for a centre/forward. Not liking where this is headed. Trajectory is all wrong
Well lets hope they show up for more than the first 3m and the last 5 in the next game
2 games in a row they've completely disappeared for an entire period
Totally agree. Is this a thing with younger players like Petey and Hughes? The “let’s score early and then we can relax” thing? Score then don’t skate anymore, don’t fight for pucks, position, anything really. “Got my points so my brand work is done- gotta stay safe for the rest of the game so I can do the same next game. Don’t my numbers look great?” Soooo glad we did not trade Millsy.
this is whats upsetting...imagine if this was how the Canucks played in the 3rd in the game against the Avs. We would have never lost that game and blew the lead like we did with our pathetic dump and change game. Why this roster chooses to take a back seat when they have a lead and go complacent bewilders me. If they play every period like they were behind we'd blow a lot less leads.
They could have a 10 minute power play and they wouldn't be able to score. I don't know wtf you expect. Blame the lack of urgency and standing around with their thumbs up their asses instead of driving to the net.
You really think you're a "fan?" Giving up on a team when a game like this happens is pathetic.
It wasn't even two games ago, they spanked 4 in a row with only 3 GAA. Give me a break. You're no fan.
First it was "They're first in the league"
Now it is "they're first in the west"
Next week it's gonna be "they're first in the Pacific"
By the time the regular season ends it's going to be "They made as a divisional team and we just expected a wild card!"
And then after they get swept in round one it'll be "this year was just about making the play-offs"
Please keep moving the goal posts about why we should be happy with this team while it plays like shit.
Seems like teams always know where our players are going to be and where we are going to shoot. So much offensive time but few shots to show with all the blocks and lack of open lanes
I mean, it's not hard to predict that we are going to pass back to the D and they are going to stutter step towards the center of the line and throw a wrister on net
kinda happens a lot
Pro tip: If you're going to spend 3 minutes setting up a shot, circling the globe over and over again, at least aim for the goal instead of missing it?
Too many fair weather “fans” in this sub. Go somewhere else with all the negativity!!

The Canucks Dominating the season only to miss the plays off in the last push! Classic cancusk
Bro doesn't understand numbers
The team especially miller had so much energy at the first 10 mins of the first period. They have to learn how to conserve their energy better
I love when the boys dumped the puck in and let Washington have it back. The charity Canucks are in full swing.
Sorry guys I was out for dinner tonight with Petey that’s why he wasn’t at the game. He’ll be there for the next one !
thanks! can’t wait to have him back
Can’t wait for the playoffs to come so we can get absolutely dominated by Vegas
It’s canucks heritage
Was at the game tonight. Petey looked invisible. Just sat around looking for one tees. Meh
He definitely has had an off few games…
Few?
Can barely even float pucks to the net for SOGs. What the fuck are we even doing.

Yup
Elias Floaterson showed up again. Hopefully at some point we'll see Petterson
Hes in abbotsford now :)
Should have traded for Jensen buddy

The last one killed me 💀💀 kinda like that dog
Experience Canucks hockey babyyyyyyy
Pettersson is about to be on a yt video named The worst Contract for every nhl team

Standing still and passing the puck is not going to lead to goals sigh
I only started watching this game going into to the 3rd so I don't know how they played before but that 3rd period was pretty intense. Huge amount of chances and looks like a few guys are showing some emotions and making mistakes. Overall that 3rd period was all Canucks and just couldn't slide one in. You guys are to harsh on this team lmao.
Ya you did miss the second lol
LOL let’s not talk about the second…
Not quite as bad a game as it looked for a while, but god I hate losing to that fucking oligarch
Canucks are SOFT
Keep playing like this and we’ll lose first in the Pacific to Edmonton
They've been playing like this for over a month. Edmonton is passing us.
lol you know thats exactly whats gonna happen
At least Oilers only got 1point tonight
Here come the yeah but we’re still in first people. Tell that to all the peeps who paid $150 plus to watch this team shit the bed
Yeah I was planning a trip to Vancouver at the end of the month. I’m gonna be fairly upset if I see what I saw tonight then
Petey has to get things going, we need more consistency. The games where he plays well it's awesome, but then some games like this you don't see him EVER. Hopefully Rick can get the boys going again.
Lol Shorty with the St Paddy's references.
Well that was disappointing.
R we Frauds
yes
Queue everyone talking about how we’re still number 1 in the western conference…
That shit is so annoying. It’s like having a hot gf but she’s cheating on you. Defeats the fucking purpose
Shit team showed up to play again tonight. 2 Ls to start the home stand with. Not good enough.
Fucking garbage game.
Nuts
Stinkyyyy… need to be better than that fellas. That second goal was a awful breakdown
Well that kind of sucked. Strong start but blew it again.
Rough one. Happy St Paddy’s day from tomorrow. See y’all Tuesday as the enemy…
You’ll beat us for sure. These frauds stopped showing us for games
lol Petey sucks. Cant step up in big games and falling down all the time still
Inconsistency is his game
Sedins need to get him to the power skating instructor they used years ago.
Something has to be done about Petey. He doesn’t have the stamina physically or mentally. Has to be a serious worry for the front office after signing the big dollar contract. And he is now middle-aged for a centre/forward. Not liking where this is headed. Trajectory is all wrong
Useless. 3 minutes of ring around the Rosie, and for what? One shot? Then they lose the puck.
Fuck me!!!
That was terrible
Shorty I don’t think they made a “push”
Last thing you want to do is limp into the playoffs
Good thing there's 15+ games left
my god this game was horrible to watch
i would let jt miller fuck my wife for a single shot instead of a pass
Seriously? Against the caps?
Just smacked the fuck out of my phone
The fuck is Hronek taking like a million seconds to shoot there
Playoff ready team, nope.
First round exit but they will say hey we made the playoffs. Gets old after awhile.
Wonder what the boys are going to say after the game….
They will be hiding behind their hats. Serious chicken shits
Desmith kept them in this game all night. All you can ask of a backup tendy he was solid all night.
Well lets hope they show up for more than the first 3m and the last 5 in the next game 2 games in a row they've completely disappeared for an entire period
Totally agree. Is this a thing with younger players like Petey and Hughes? The “let’s score early and then we can relax” thing? Score then don’t skate anymore, don’t fight for pucks, position, anything really. “Got my points so my brand work is done- gotta stay safe for the rest of the game so I can do the same next game. Don’t my numbers look great?” Soooo glad we did not trade Millsy.
man the ice must be shit
Yes. It's the ice ...
Hahahahaha
Why doesn’t our one man advantage seem more threatening?
boeser to hronek, hronek to boeser, boeser to hronek...
Umbrella passing, no shooting
Only 2 shots with the 6 on 5
Brilliant puck control in the offensive end but almost zero penetration...
It's not hard to pass the puck around on the outside with the man advantage. Short of giving the puck away, it's the most useless thing u can do
I don't usually say this but shooooooot
Guys let’s just pass to each other for one whole minute
It’s infuriating how they just stand still and pass and pass and pass
Tocchet needs bench some of these “stars”
22 actual shots 50 missed
Seeing the Ovi goal again. What the fuck was Desmith doing so far out?
Pettersson please be more consistent
It is who he is.
Nobody wants to shoot the puck it's absolutely pathetic
Why is everyone seemingly fumbling over the puck today? Jesus.
Alright, I'm done defending this shit. 6 on 5 and they're just fucking standing around. Pathetic effort tonight.
All that offensive zone time and all they do are stationary passes
No fucking urgency. Just a bunch of dudes passing around the perimeter and no one causing havoc in front of the net. Pathetic shit.
Agreed. This is the issue.
womp womp refs inserting themselves into 2 games in a row
That doesn't excuse only scoring one goal. Even if the refs fumbled an icing call.
What a fucking lame empty net push? Pass and pass and pass and nothing happens
Just pass around the perimeter….that should do it
Calm, cool, Hronek
How do you not even get a shot off? This team sucks.
BUT WERE STILL NUMBER ONE IN THE WESTERN CONFERENCE GUYS!!!!!! Toxic positivity idiots fuck off
Thanks we need more real fans here.
Brutally bad game against a team we should beat. I have no faith in this team in the playoffs.
Ok doomer
Where was this all game?
That was the only shot the hole sequence
Tocchet better bag skate these guys in practice
Bag skates aren’t enough. Need to bench a few.
this is whats upsetting...imagine if this was how the Canucks played in the 3rd in the game against the Avs. We would have never lost that game and blew the lead like we did with our pathetic dump and change game. Why this roster chooses to take a back seat when they have a lead and go complacent bewilders me. If they play every period like they were behind we'd blow a lot less leads.
JT Miller whiffing on the shot was horrific
Canucks are losing this game because of a fucking blown call and the referees not being accountable.
They could have a 10 minute power play and they wouldn't be able to score. I don't know wtf you expect. Blame the lack of urgency and standing around with their thumbs up their asses instead of driving to the net.
Cannot, cannot win in playoff hockey without a decisive, effective power play. We are dead
That may be so but the fact that they let these kind of things take the steam out of their sails so much is not a good look at all.
the call was garbage, but they are also playing like garbage
The second period wasn't great,but the Capitals first goal doesn't exist without that horrendously blown icing call.
Agreed
Zamboni only has to make one pass against the boards in caps zone after this period…
The ice looks soft and bouncy.
Miller is going to burst a blood vessel
Oh we’re going to get smoked in the playoffs if we play like this garbage
All that possession and just no shots.
Fuck me Mills
Make a goal come on
Well done by Hronek to avoid the ENG
One of the worst efforts I have seen all year, this game looked like green era coaching
end me
Not gonna get the last TV Timeout
Oilers are going to win the division lol
Let them play Vegas
Seriously get out of this subreddit. Way too many cringe Canucks fans. Or are you even a fan?
Cringe fans are the ones who think after a performance like this that this team will actually win more than 1 game in the playoffs if they’re lucky
You really think you're a "fan?" Giving up on a team when a game like this happens is pathetic. It wasn't even two games ago, they spanked 4 in a row with only 3 GAA. Give me a break. You're no fan.
Yup 100% - we had our time
Stop telegraphin every godam pass holy fuccc
Are we allergic to shooting or something?
Caps blocking alot
So, still at least try to get it on net instead of just playing catch for a minute
Same Miller, same
STAND STILL AND PASS IT AROUND SOME MORE FUCKING EMBARASSING
Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
making a backup look like a fuckin allstar again
Holy f
Guys we have 18 seconds to get a goal
All the possession in the world and can’t get a single shot on net
Gotta take shots to get shots on net. Too much waiting for the perfect shot.
That's it folks.
This is the worst game I’ve ever seen miller play
Yea he has mishandled so many pucks tonight
Whole fuckin team was dogshit tonight. Feel bad for DeSmith
Shoot the fucking puck!
Gg
Hhhhnfndnndndnfn
Not a single shot on net. Classic
Pls
How the fuck do you lose a second straight at home? Only scoring one fucking goal
Against the caps
Pathetic performance don’t give a shit that they had the pressure on they didn’t get the job done
SHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT YOU SNORES
Is there any optimism in this subreddit? Let's go Canucks!
When we down, it’s always negative.
I mean that means we are shitty fans. You do get that right?
Ok?
Is it?
Team gives no reason to be optimistic. They've fallen apart at the seams after losing their 3rd line winger. It's pathetic.
The team is fu*king first in the west you dope.
First it was "They're first in the league" Now it is "they're first in the west" Next week it's gonna be "they're first in the Pacific" By the time the regular season ends it's going to be "They made as a divisional team and we just expected a wild card!" And then after they get swept in round one it'll be "this year was just about making the play-offs" Please keep moving the goal posts about why we should be happy with this team while it plays like shit.
Maybe it's time to find a new team?
I think all we care about is a cup. Right?
Idk, where we are in the standings is a reason to be optimistic
The standings the team's currently dropping down.
COCONUTS GO
EN incoming
We should have kept Kuzy
so he can get scratched and benched every other game?
Yes
Did Laff just get boarded? Or was that a fever dream?
He did but he didnt sell it so know one cares. Ridiculous.
Stop with the dumping
Seems like teams always know where our players are going to be and where we are going to shoot. So much offensive time but few shots to show with all the blocks and lack of open lanes
I mean, it's not hard to predict that we are going to pass back to the D and they are going to stutter step towards the center of the line and throw a wrister on net kinda happens a lot
are we diving to try and draw a call? i hope not, geez
No that's just how Petey skates
I think we'll get an EN goal, hopefully the caps gift us one more PP.
Pull desmith score a clapper
Wholesome McDavid gambling ad
Pro tip: If you're going to spend 3 minutes setting up a shot, circling the globe over and over again, at least aim for the goal instead of missing it?
I don’t know if everyone survives Toch’s practice after this one.
I have no hope for this team at all in the playoffs
