I feel bad for Shannon (The Hockey Guy). Life-long 'nucks fan and now he has to deal with the worst season (not stat-wise) they have since Torts decided to ruin Kellan Lain's career because he (Torts) wanted to intentionally fight Calgary.
All Canuck fans are feeling it this year. IMO this is the worst season in team history doesn't matter how many points/wins we have. It's a miracle Pettersson hasn't asked for a trade.
How this team has avoided an updated "Legacy of Failure" video has sort of blown my mind. Yet people thought I was just being negative when I said I didn't think their rebuild was over after their playoff run in 2020.
I also did call it one of the Canucks’s worst anti-gamer move being the signing of Mats Sundin. They suckered themselves into wasting money on a player that only played half a season with the Canucks
I’m 28 years old and have watched (or at least tried to watch) every Canucks game as far back as my memories take me. I love this team. I grew up with Nazzy, Bert and Jovo in the West Coast Express era. This team was literally the first and last thing I thought of each day. But this season broke me. This is the first season where I willingly checked out of being a Canucks fan. I just can’t bring myself to watching games knowing I have zero hope in this franchise turning things around as long as Aqua owns the team. Watching teams like NYR, LA essentially lap us in their competitive cycle opened my eyes to just how directionless this team really is. Horvat’s prime was wasted and I am currently watching Petey, Hughes and Demko all have their primes wasted as well. There is nothing for me to like about this team rn and that’s what disappoints me the most. It's the apathy that hurts the most.
@@SmithMason5494 don't blame you at all. They're a vibe. I don't think I could change teams, though that might have to do with me starting grad school and being more or less too busy for hockey right now. That said, I still feel that I'd check out on this team even if I wasn't so busy, the situation is that bad.
I know BBQ Bruce is seen as a bit of a meme in the hockey realm, but the way this franchise treated him before his sacking was one of the most inhumane and despicable things I've ever seen in hockey. If the NHL has any sense they'll force Aquillini to sell after that shameful mishandling of power #BruceThereItIs
Yeah, the way Bruce Boudreau was treated was disgusting. He wasn't the reason the team was terrible. The way the team is put together is the reason the Canucks aren't good.
Absolutely disgusting. They can try to hide this up with virtue signalling promotion nights to try and make their organization look admirable, but we won’t forgot this shit.
Literally saw that while on vacation there my family walked a little bit off of Chinatown and saw it and we said it looks worse than even Skid Row in LA.
The equivalent where I live is Jane and Finch I guess, but I had no idea what East Hastings was and after looking it up… dear god. Talk about a shit stain on the reputation of a overall solid city.
@@gbalph4 it’s shocking cause all things consisted, Vancouver is a great city, it’s got its own MK track with some of the best music ever, seeing a place like that there is baffling.
@@gbalph4 I lived in the LA area before this, and What I have noticed is that Hastings and skid row are different kinds of rough. They're both not pretty to look at but skid row is certainly more dangerous.
Never seen a fan base cheer for a coach (in a positive way) that was on the precipice of being fired. That last game when they chanting his name at the end was something great.
@Boris Van Druff hey I'll take the improvement this year, plus our bevy of prospects as a step in the right direction at least. Still got a ways to go, but best this team has been in a decade.
The Canucks have always been a interesting team for me because with that much potential and talent to do what they do continually just seems so insane and even when you try to change it up you get the same result
A year ago i watched this video with a smile on my face knowing i was understood, now i watch this video with a smile on my face knowing how much has changed
I watched the final Canucks game coached by Bruce Boudreau on 1/21. It broke my heart watching his tearful face while he acknowledged the fans. However, he handled this stressful situation with dignity and class. Bruce is looking much better than the current on-ice trainwreck.
I'd rather have the Spanos family manage the Canucks than even Dan Snyder and the Aquilinis. At least the train wreck wouldn't be worse than it already is. You would actually need to destroy the Vancouver hockey market entirely to give the Canucks the Vancouver Grizzlies treatment.
Just wanted to thank you for all your great videos. I have been going through an intensive law school program for the past couple of years and have had periods of anxiety and sadness. Your videos always bring me joy even if I don't watch as many sports as I used to. hopefully, my Leafs will eventually get past the first round.
Thanks for making this. Having this all laid out like this just shows how far this is from being fixed. Sucks being a life long fan with no end of this turmoil in sight. This organization needs a Bedard or another franchise player in this draft.
A really good player will not save the team if the organization around it is bad. Coaching, training, general management all have to not rip the team apart or grind it down in the meantime.
@@StarkRaven59 I agree, but think about what having a home town grown superstar would do not only for the team but the fans and the morale of this franchise.
The irony is Aquilini is so delusional about this team being a consistent playoff team he won't let us crash to the bottom and actually draft Bedard. The fact we gave Miller that contract is ridiculous.
I agree with almost all of your points but Pettersson is not checked out. He still forechecks hard even in games that are a lost cause, he is one of the best penalty killers, and he does not pout or show frustration. He may leave but he ain't gonna stop trying cause he ain't that kinda guy.
I was at the Preds-Canucks game the other day that went to shootout, and I was thinking the whole time how bad they looked, so I'm glad to have this video now
Hell, the Preds are just as bad right now; essentially the entire team from players, coaches and the executive office needs to be stripped down to the bare studs and completely rebuilt from the ground up.
@@digitalrailroader They had a golden chance to get back into the playoff race, came back from down 3-1 to tie a REELING Minnesota Wild team, and they give up the game winner with 20 seconds to go in regulation If that's not a deathblow I don't know what is
Thank you for spreading the word that my favourite team is in disarray worse than any other point in Canucks history (besides the Messier point). The Canucks are one of the only teams ever to finish dead last less than five times, and I’m certain they’ll be close to it this year.
30 years too long. That little Sheldon from Big Bang Theory lookalike has been hellbent on ensuring no Canadian team wins a cup before his Sun Belt darlings, one of which has moved. Just move the Coyotes to Canada, Arizona is redneck country, which means NASCAR and the 250th annual Handbone championships.
Vancouver fan here, Why does everyone try to defend Linden? He is the reason for this mess. He brought in Benning, the dumb moves that happen when he was in office include: Drafting Virtanen - Bust - passed on Nylander, Fiala and Ehler Drafiing McCann - Only to trade For Gubranson - PASSED ON "DAVID PASTRNAK" Drafting Juolevi - Bust - Passed on Sergachev, Keller and Thachuk. Columbus GM at the time, who loves his Fin's wanted nothing to do with Puljujarvi and him, the warning signs where there Signings of Eriksson, Beagle, Sutter, Rouselle
Tree… The first video i watched of yours was the original Vancouver Canucks Lowcow video way back when. Since I have longed and wondered when you would make a canucks video again. I thought to myself, maybe a playoff failure…. Dare i say Stanley cup. Here we are some 6 years later and so excited to see another Tree video on my beloved canucks. Yet SOMEHOW we are in a worse spot we were then. A true lowcow, stuck in perpetual mediocrity, spinning in aquilinis cycle of doom. Love your vids Tree. Thanks for letting me soak in my own misery 🙏
As a Canucks fan it's been known blueberry man was the one pulling strings, I'm just happy everyone else is finally realizing it. I used to love following hockey and the Canucks but the past few seasons have just absolutely killed my joy for watching them. I don't even have feelings for this team alot of the time just general apathy.
The Hockey Guy is one of the most positive people in hockey analysis and even he trash talks the Canucks on the regular. They are a gutless organization.
The Canucks' combined record (last 25 games of last season + this season so far) since this video dropped: 43-18-5. Tree Jinx strikes again? EDIT: To clarify for those coming back to this post at a later date, this comment was posted on the morning of January 12 2024. By the time you read this, they may have already had a failed window and blown the team up. Who's to say for sure?
You know what's sad? From 2013 to 2021 the Canucks had a FANTASTIC farm system with the Utica Comets. I'm from the Utica, NY area myself, and it was always awesome to listen to games when players like Demko were coming up through the system. To see them now is a goddamn disappointment.
He wanted too much money for 1 career season. The Canucks made him a fair offer, but he turned it down. They didn't want to move him, but he wouldn't sign, and they could just let him walk at the end of the year. It was his choice to leave.
@carletonrutherford1799 I was referring to the frequent display name of strategy-game-adjacent LPer/streamer and eternally in pain Canucks fan Northernlion
Thank you Tree for making this video and thus blessing the canucks with the season we are witnessing now. all i hope is we get the same result the G Knights did after your previous video on them the year prior Allbless the tree jinx
At this point, the only thing that would bring me joy as a Canucks fan is for Jon Bois to make a Dorktown series of the team, like with the Falcons or Mariners. And Bedard. I’d like Bedard, too.
Bruce Boudreau - I'm old enough to remember when he was a promising coach who had won the Calder Cup in Hershey. I hope for his sake that he can get another chance with a better-managed team.
I was only ever a nucks fan because of their proximity to Seattle, with the Kraken franchise I jumped ship but it's still a little sad to see their state of affairs as a former sufferer.
What's crazy is that if they had just been patient and stayed the course they might actually be good right now as opposed to signing every big defenseman that exists to a 5x5 and trading away draft picks.
It honestly surprises me we expect so much more from this team before this season because any time we give hope to the Canucks they somehow squander it in about 30 seconds or so
A lot of Canucks fans seem to be rooting for the mid-season super-tank to maximize their odds at Bedard. To those fans I ask: do you honestly believe Bedard can save this team if management stays the same?
The biggest problem is Aquilini. Set aside the allegations of abuse from his family, the man does not take criticism well and refuses to admit his team needs 3 years of solid rebuilding and development by stocking up prospects. He got a taste of the promised land in 2011 and has been chasing that high ever since. Just sell the team or give full control over to someone of actual talent. They had that in Linden and he left when Aquilini decided to tell him to kindly piss off...he hasnt been near the team since.
Not to mention the disaster that turned out to be Jake Virtanen. The knock on the kid at the draft was character and it turns out it was a huge issue. Here some names that went after him in the 2014 draft: Willie Nylander, Nick Ehlers, Dylan Larkin, Alex Tuch, Travis Sanheim, David Pastrnak, and Adrian Kempe.
There is one name, and one reason the Canucks drafted Virtanen, and kept him around so long.......Cam Neely. The local kid they drafted, and then gave up on too early. And that is a fact.
Tree forgot to mention that Boesser was healthy scratched on hockey fights cancer night in Vancouver, an especially important night for him given his father passed away from cancer. It’s just a despicable move through and through and completely unwarranted.
Yes do be careful what you wish for. As a Canucks Fan since before their 94 Cup run and a fan of your work, a UT video Roasting/Ranting of the Current Chaotic Condition of the Canucks was inevitable, thank you. And yes who thought not only JR & CO would be worst that JB or might even be more maddening the Keenan/Messier madhouse mess 😵💫🤯😖
Imagine if Tree actually visits Vancouver, and sees more areas other than the Downtown East Side. West End, Kitsilano, North and West Van, take your pick.
Can’t wait for the roast of the Ducks. AHL coach Eakins , drunk Bob Murray, defensively inept, garbage bin diving…. We need this Tree . Please for the love of god, we need this.
Not the Bruce Boudreau part. Most of us loved Bruce, and thought Allvin, and Rutherford absolutely boned him. Pee Tree never mentioned that the fans chanted for him.
The Canucks mismanagement of the Bruce situation was so bad that I, a fan of the canucks for 15 years, finally threw in the towel and now cheer for the Kraken. I'll always have a special place in my heart for the Canucks but I truly believe there comes a time in every Canucks fan's life that they realize they have to cheer for another team if they want to be happy watching hockey. I wouldn't call myself an ex canucks fan, but they're now my second team.
If you can just that easily throw in the towel as a fan of any team, and start cheering for a different team, then you were never a real fan in the first place.

At this point, the only thing that would bring me joy as a Canucks fan is for Jon Bois to make a Dorktown series of the team, like with the Falcons or Mariners.
And Bedard. I’d like Bedard, too.
Welp, you didn’t get Bedard. Even worse, he went to the Blackhawks. THE BLACKHAWKS.
There is no justice in this world.
Bruce Boudreau - I'm old enough to remember when he was a promising coach who had won the Calder Cup in Hershey. I hope for his sake that he can get another chance with a better-managed team.
Im really sad this video came out two days before linus' goalie goal
After a year, bringing in Tocchet was the best move the Canucks have made in well over a decade.
The Canucks biggest mistake was choosing to re-sign JT Miller over Bo Horvat.
I’d argue it was not firing Benning after ‘21, but yes that was a huge mistake
I’m a Canucks fan and the biggest mistake is the Org. ever existing in the first place.
@@bradsimpson9396 after 21? after 17 or 18 for me!
And a close second was Larson over Dylan Guenthe..
@@xSG199xy’all should rebrand
I was only ever a nucks fan because of their proximity to Seattle, with the Kraken franchise I jumped ship but it's still a little sad to see their state of affairs as a former sufferer.
Damnit. I was expecting a Legacy of Failure.
Same tbh 😔
Me too
Best video I can think of offhand to post this on... But any sort of trade deadline video for the NHL should get pretty interesting in a hurry
I have been waiting a long time for this one
What's crazy is that if they had just been patient and stayed the course they might actually be good right now as opposed to signing every big defenseman that exists to a 5x5 and trading away draft picks.
It honestly surprises me we expect so much more from this team before this season because any time we give hope to the Canucks they somehow squander it in about 30 seconds or so
My favorite thing about this is how Ullmark scores his goalie goal against them right after this😂
Sadly, the Panthers expose him.
This makes the long rebuild of the oilers and sabres look more competent and that says a lot
How about now?
@@texasyt3742 comment aged like milk out of the fridge
I was wondering if tree was going to do this...great video
A lot of Canucks fans seem to be rooting for the mid-season super-tank to maximize their odds at Bedard. To those fans I ask: do you honestly believe Bedard can save this team if management stays the same?
Bedard by himself? Not sure.
Multiple picks over the next few years? Potentially. You gotta try.
@@protoman1365 Bedard would probably have been ruined in Vancouver. YMMV with Chicago but allegedly that's getting better.
You know somehow i expected more from this but also i didn't expected more from this team at the same time
The biggest problem is Aquilini. Set aside the allegations of abuse from his family, the man does not take criticism well and refuses to admit his team needs 3 years of solid rebuilding and development by stocking up prospects. He got a taste of the promised land in 2011 and has been chasing that high ever since. Just sell the team or give full control over to someone of actual talent. They had that in Linden and he left when Aquilini decided to tell him to kindly piss off...he hasnt been near the team since.
Thank you tree for jinxing a team yet again ❤
The Canucks collapsed faster than the Van Der Linde gang
Also you need to do a LOF vid on this team
About time you made this video. Man, I am glad when I move to Vancouver in 2005 I wasn’t a complete idiot and became a Canuck fan.
Not to mention the disaster that turned out to be Jake Virtanen. The knock on the kid at the draft was character and it turns out it was a huge issue. Here some names that went after him in the 2014 draft: Willie Nylander, Nick Ehlers, Dylan Larkin, Alex Tuch, Travis Sanheim, David Pastrnak, and Adrian Kempe.
There is one name, and one reason the Canucks drafted Virtanen, and kept him around so long.......Cam Neely. The local kid they drafted, and then gave up on too early. And that is a fact.
I came to this channel for hockey and I stay here for hockey. Thank you Tree
Tree forgot to mention that Boesser was healthy scratched on hockey fights cancer night in Vancouver, an especially important night for him given his father passed away from cancer. It’s just a despicable move through and through and completely unwarranted.
It would be a Kroenke-tier despicable move though.
That's a Babcock or Iron Mike move.
Yes do be careful what you wish for. As a Canucks Fan since before their 94 Cup run and a fan of your work, a UT video Roasting/Ranting of the Current Chaotic Condition of the Canucks was inevitable, thank you. And yes who thought not only JR & CO would be worst that JB or might even be more maddening the Keenan/Messier madhouse mess 😵💫🤯😖
The Hater's Guide made this video inevitable. Imagine making the Leafs look like they know what they're doing.
I really hope tree makes a video for this year's trade deadline. It was CRACKED this year
Crazy turnaround since this video
And the fair weather fans will pretend they never left, like they always do
I’m still rooting for the Sharks, despite them being at the bottom of the league.
Finally. Some damn hockey content. Good sh*t, Utree
and now they hold the honor of being the first team to have a bruins goalie score on them
They also had a Sharks goalie do it too over 20 years back.
Thank you for making a Canucks video 🙌🙌🙌
The Canucks: the team so bad, Tree broke out the Sentinel Factory from X-Men Clone Wars
The East Hastings joke was beautiful, very well made video and another Tree masterclass
Imagine if Tree actually visits Vancouver, and sees more areas other than the Downtown East Side. West End, Kitsilano, North and West Van, take your pick.
As an Isles fan, thanks for Bo Horvat Canucks! We definitely needed him
Agreed. I would've liked it more 2-3 years ago, but at least Lou FINALLY did something to address the scoring problem.
Your welcome. Enjoy 70 points at 8.5 per
The video all hockey fans have been waiting for!!!
Chuck Fletcher a Legacy of Failure has to be next 😂
Can’t wait for the roast of the Ducks. AHL coach Eakins , drunk Bob Murray, defensively inept, garbage bin diving…. We need this Tree . Please for the love of god, we need this.
Canucks fan. We deserve every second of this.
Not the Bruce Boudreau part. Most of us loved Bruce, and thought Allvin, and Rutherford absolutely boned him. Pee Tree never mentioned that the fans chanted for him.
This feels like the Canucks LOLCOW video you did years ago, but the situation is much worse.
The Canucks mismanagement of the Bruce situation was so bad that I, a fan of the canucks for 15 years, finally threw in the towel and now cheer for the Kraken. I'll always have a special place in my heart for the Canucks but I truly believe there comes a time in every Canucks fan's life that they realize they have to cheer for another team if they want to be happy watching hockey. I wouldn't call myself an ex canucks fan, but they're now my second team.
If you can just that easily throw in the towel as a fan of any team, and start cheering for a different team, then you were never a real fan in the first place.
"To be fired, and then fired again."
Love ya, Tree.
The Canucks have now allowed a goalie goal against the team that ripped out their souls 12 years ago. That is all.
You know, I was waiting for this video, but somehow I’m still not ready
