This week in anguish:

  • The week and the season are slipping through our fingers. Discuss.

  • Henri "the Pocket Rocket" Richard sadly passed away this week, and this leads Ardella to an examination of the extracurricular winning of Stanley Cups by once and future Canucks.

  • Shots against. Are they really all that bad? The Canucks are bleeding shots at historical levels, but that never seemed to bother Kirk McLean, so...?

  • We tally the Tylers and tabulate the Tanners.

  • Jimbo in Boca is acting a biiit too collegial, in our opinion.

  • Garth Butcher is big enough for his britches in 1991, Markus Naslund is milquetoast in 2001, and Alain Vigneault has some 2011-vintage words of wisdom that this week's Canucks need to take to heart.
