There’s bad hockey, and then there’s whatever the hell the Vancouver Canucks are doing right now.
Now past the quarter pole of this shortened 56-game NHL season, the Canucks are 3-9-0 against teams not named the Ottawa Senators.
It’s been an unmitigated disaster on so many levels, and it’s gotten to the point where both the coaches and the players are running out of excuses. Hell, Travis Green was so desperate that he threw Loui Eriksson into the line-up as a desperation move.
After four straight blowout losses, things are once again looking bleak for this team, just one season after it looked like they had finally righted the ship.
