February 1 – Roughly four weeks until the trade deadline. Roughly eight weeks until the end of the season.

And the Canucks have lost nine at home and are two more losses away from tying their franchise record for consecutive defeats.

And some would call last night progress. Would you?

January 28 – Can Vancouver break it and stay relevant in the playoff hunt? Or should we start discussing what kind of kitchen linoleum feels the best on your face as you pass out, blind stinking drunk, in a fit of rage at another loss? Your guess is as good as mine…but let’s liveblog it anyway.

January 16: No more excuses. No more games like last night (or like against the Devils or the Sharks or the Caps). No more. It’s nothing personal Alain. It’s just time. Pull the trigger Mike.

January 14: I think we can agree that the Canucks have been painfully average. Luongo returning should help that, but what if it doesn’t? How do you fix that before this season is officially lost? Forget adding new players, here’s a novel idea: axe the coach.

January 10 – Wow. A simply stunning home debut for the chrome krona. And the team coughs up two easy points with San Jose, of all teams, waiting for them tonight. Wake me when this weekend is over.

January 5 – Another good Labarbera start ends in another shootout loss for Vancouver, now 1-5 on the year when they can’t commit to winning in a 65 minute stretch.And Schneider is on his way back to Manitoba too.

December 16 – It’s only fitting that in the same week where we’ll honor a Canuck for life by sending his number to the rafters in GM Place, we are left to still debate the merits of another guy who (if you ask me) doesn’t have a right to play on the home team in the same arena. Enough is enough, time to go away Mats.

December 8 – Over the weekend Vancouver used their time to end one losing streak and start potentially another. So it’s a festivus miracle that Luongo is rumored to be back by the weekend.
