Its a familiar story. A 2-0 lead blown with only 20 minutes of effort in the game. This time the Vancouver Canucks did it at home.
With the less then stellar play of Roberto Luongo and the devastating injuries to the Canucks defensive core the teams faults and missing pieces have been exposed. Last year, the teams inability to score wasnt as big of a focus because of the amazing play of Luongo and the defense in front of him. That is not the case this year, and something needs to be done.
I do have to wonder one thing though, last season the lack of scoring was an obvious flaw yet Dave Nonis did not address that concern in the offseason. Why? I will be fair to him and admit that there was not much available this past summer in regards to real scoring threats, but all he managed to add to the team were more third and fourth line grinders. This is simply not good enough. I believe this summer will be the real test for Vancouver GM Dave Nonis and there should be some major changes to the Vancouver Canucks this offseason. If Nonis does not manage to make his mark on this team and bring in some players to address the lack of scoring I believe it will be his last season as GM of the Canucks, so either way big changes are coming.
I would like to see the Canucks revert back to their old style of run and gun hockey. If you ask me, now is the perfect time to play that style of hockey, we have one of the best goalies in the NHL. All of the previous years that Nucks played that style of hockey our goaltending was questionable, with Luongo in net we should have the goalie required to make the big saves. Is that not the reason he is making the most money on the team?
I have another poll for you fans. Lets hear what you think.
