Throw Miller into the fire next game . Markstrom stunk and he needs a rest for eight or ten in a row.

The All-Sweden line shows why they are so good 3-on-3. LMAO!

Why do they get so much time in OT when there are at least 3 other line combos that are better suited or the 3 man gimmick.

They are good for one short offensive shift in OT. The problem is they won't change up until they lose the puck no matter how long they have been out there then they coast on the change when they give up the puck. You see other players changing up even when their team has possession but the twins just don't.

Give me Horvat, Baertschi, and Hutton any day 3-3.

But as Blob says, it could have been worse and we could have gotten two points.

Question now is does Jake stay or get returned. The addition of Etem with th expectation that Hansons injury is about a week, not long term as feared, may mean he goes back. But I liked his game tonight.

I like how they are handling McCann with planned games off. I say do the same for Virtanen.

With the invisible Higgins getting benched as well, gotta think he's on the trade block - lowkey styles.

Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Waive Higgins. If we are lucky someone picks him up. If not it saves us just over $900,000 on the cap. I'm sure Utica can use a vet like him for mentoring. And Utica is close to home for him. We'd be doing him a solid.

Ole Blobby McKenzie must be doing backflips over Benning stealing Baertschi from his hated Calpukes for just a 2nd round pick

It's certainly better than the second for Vey . Time will tell but Baertschi looks decent right now and hopefully he keeps it up.

While I still hope for a top 3 pick, it is great to see us picking up points through the play of our youngsters. Horvat has definitely picked up his game and Bert seems to have found his grove too.
