these always make me giggle a little and feel a lot better after a loss
The officiating became the story on Friday afternoon as the #Canucks lost to the Sharks.

But the real story is the Sharks went 2-for-6 on the power play (and scored another just after a power play ended) and the Canucks went 0-for-8.

What a day to not be able to watch the game live. Holy smokes, Petey. #Canucks

Some good stuff in the #Canucks latest mic'd up video with Tyler Myers.

Mysie's a talker, but some of my favourite bits came from other players next to him.

The #Goldeneyes got a wake-up call in their first road game: as talented as their squad is on paper, this season will be far from a cakewalk. passittobulis.substack.com/p/goldeneyes...
Goldeneyes loss to Charge should be a wake-up call for the expansion squad
The Goldeneyes were badly outshot and outscored by the Charge in their first road game.

I am absolute dying at the tone of voice on "Oh, he passed it back to Dvorak..."
Never in a million years would you guess what happens in this video

*Canucks lose*

Trade every veteran, rebuild is on, we're tanking for McKenna.

*Canucks win*

Trade every draft pick, playoffs are back on, we're planning the parade route.

Conor Garland has been moisturizing, because those were some incredibly soft hands. What a goal. #Canucks

"Turned into a bit of a track meet there in the last 6-7 minutes..."

I see what you did there, @sportsnetmurph.bsky.social.

Video of SOME of the comments from #Canucks head coach Adam Foote. Watch the full thing on Canucks Twitter for everything he said today.

I just had to clip this part. Those guys in Russian basements, smoking cigarettes, eating walnuts and talking about scoring chances....

This game was bleak.

But hey, Tom Willander had that one shift that was pretty good.

IWTG is up. #Canucks

the vancouver canucks are not good

but are they fun to watch? also no

but are they young and on the upswing? regretfully, no

but are they beloved in the community? increasingly not!

but do they have good ownership? so uh the thing is

It is absolutely shocking that a team with David Kämpf as their second-line centre is this bad. #Canucks

Get it together, #Canucks, you're embarrassing yourself in front of the Vancouver Goldeneyes.

Looks like Filip Hronek may still be fighting an illness because that was a sick goal.
