from Jason Botchford of the Vancouver Province,
If Willie comes back from this and lasts the season, he has to be a shape-shifting android assassin with a body made of liquid metal.
After two periods, he instructed his team to “go out and go after it.”
They did anything but.
You’re up 3-0 and you’re the 2016-17 Canucks. They did what most people probably thought they’d do.
They pissed their pants.
“We couldn’t sit back, we had to go after it,” Willie explained.
“Basically keep playing the same way. We couldn’t sit back and let them come to us.”
If you look at the shot clock (17-3 in the third), or if you watched the game, you were probably left yelling at clouds because you think the Canucks sat back.
