K this Canucks losing this is getting really old already. If I were Nonnis i'd make a big move, something to shake everyone up and make them realize this is serious situation there getting into. Maybe trade a big name or fire Crawford or something to shake them up a bit. There losing streak has gone from bad to worse. At first they were getting ties (with losses in OT and shootout) , then one goals losses, now multiple goals, somethings gotta give.

Sounds like the Canucks lost again, will see the lowlights come up in a minute or so on TV. I will have to take Morrison fishing and tell him to ask for a trade to Toronto but I hate to see anyone have to leave the winning team. ;D ;D

I'd dump Tuzzi and Spechul Ed....use these 2 boat anchors for bait for a good #1 goalie...pull the C from Naslund....and when the dust settles you'd find a possible contender.....this skid should be an eye opener for the head office.....we'll see if they have their blinders on or not....



mojo lovin' his Leafs!!!!

Lou will turn things around with his game and the Canucks will make their way back to the top of their division... Canuck's have a great chance of going all the way this year... maybe you can save this post so I can say I told you so in a couple of months Smiley

If they lose to Chicago tonight, Crawford has to go. He should go anyway.

Wait for Cloutier to get healthy so that he can have his final shot at a playoff run with the Canucks. Move Linden back to the wing and get another center. Someone of the 'Doug Weight' variety but not Doug Weight to fill this position. Ryan Malone or perhaps even Jason Allison. Get rid of Richard Park and his 1 mil sallary. Get rid of McCarthy or keep him as a 7th d-man, bump Allen down to the 5th spot and aquire another top 4 dman. Someone like Gauthier, Witt or Morris would be nice. Of course none of this is really possible with the exception of a deadline deal involving the aformentioned players as most of them will be UFAs next year.

Start looking hard for a starter in goal. Cloutier has proven that he cannot stay healthy. Auld is not the starter the team needs as he lets in too many soft goals that deflates the team.  Get Crow to make the defencemen practice their shooting so they can at least hit the net on power plays.

The only d-man who's PP performance I'm not pleased with right now is Ohlund. It seems that latley he's been passing when he has a clear shooting lane and shooting when he has not shooting lane and his shots seem to be blocked far too often. Of course its always easier to critisize from behind my tv than from ice level.

Yeah, I noticed that with Ohlund as well. He’s a great defensive guy but he’s not really suited for the PP.
Maybe it’s a confidence thing. Salo has the potential to get a bucketful of goals if he could ever hit the net.
