Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24 Playoff Edition

Donny and I have been saying similar through the season. Big structured teams have been difficult matchups for the Canucks throughout the season. My feeling is it has a fair bit to do with Vancouver's small forward corps being unable to fight through their checks. Would you lend credit to the idea ...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24 Playoff Edition

Agreed, the 1 mil player who plays above replacement level is certainly necessary going forward - especially with HW spending all Van's money on defense. I just hope Pods shows a bit more, guys who can forecheck, hit and aren't terrible defensively are great for a portion of the season, or filling i...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24 Playoff Edition

I see Pods going Hogs wild next season... if he plays well enough to get the same kind of opportunity on a scoring line. If Piggy can drive the cart for 11.6, I can't see why Podz can't be shotgunning with Jimothy & The Flow instead of throwing out Suter or 4th liners with them again. Nils was pick...

Re: Canucks News N Notes 23-24 Playoff Edition

I'm glad we aren't facing Vegas in the 1st Rd. Was a bit worried about that - secondly, thinking an LA series would have been boring as shit, so out of the three possibilities, glad its Nashville. Though, as MCP mentioned - they won't be a push-over. They are one of oldest teams in the league, lots ...

Ok Megs, take a dive.
Yep. Draft a Mukamudellin instead trading for a JT Miller. Do it Megs.

Gotta beware the Kuz tonight though, the great equalizer.

He has scored almost 90 points in the last 2 games to hear it from Calpuke.

Re: Temporary hockey discussion thread

Mark Stone was at practice today….. In a non contact jersey…… muthafucka’s Bettman's league eh? Van signed Luongo to a perfectly legal contract at the time... and got punished because it skirted the "spirit" of the rule... and now Vegas is burning the whole system down, and pissin' on it - and Bett...

Re: Temporary hockey discussion thread

Vegas having a hard time clinch a spot. I love that it’s keeping the final WC spot interesting. Blues 3 points back with 6 available. The Knights control their own fate, and 2 of their remaining 4 games are against Anaheim and Chicago, so definitely the easier finish compared to the Blues, but I’d ...

Re: GDT Coyotes @ Canucks Apr 10 7:30 pm SN Pac

Have to say, Nash as the Coyotes colour guy is about the least homerish I've heard in a long time... and way more coherent than Ray-ray. They're making Ingram look like the second coming of Ken Dryden and Patrick Roy. think Canucks had 46 shots that gone wide and blocked Vezina calibre "Thanks Shor...

zadorov got the puck first
The rule was changed several years ago that getting the puck first does not matter.
"Thanks Jello" would have been a better post.

Agreed. But the question is as what? 4th line plug, playing 10 mins per night like he is currently, or given a bigger role - 3rd line w/ PK responsibility? Or does he find his scoring touch - and make the top 6?
