Following up from yesterday’s logjam at forward, I think there is a more pressing issue on defence. The Vancouver Canucks are set to finish in the basement of the NHL for the third consecutive year. Are you sick of hearing this? I don’t particularly care. This is a fact, whether you want to believe it or not. That’s your prerogative.
Call a spade a spade. This team is bad. There is a bump in offence from the forwards thanks to Brock Boeser, but the team still struggles defensively. Part of this is on some of the forwards who hurt this team in the possession department.
