GDT: 25/2/16 Ottawa@ VCR 7:00pm SN

Post by Hockey Widow »

The long awaited debut of number 60, MARCUS NASLUND Granlund.

The return of Dion Enough.

No word who starts, suspect it's Miller with the time off they've had between games.

Vey returns tonight, playing wing. He will be playing on a line with Granlund and Etem. Granlund of course will play centre.

Vrbata not dressed, day to day with a lower body injury.

Biega in, Weber sits, again.

2 big points if we want to keep our chances alive. We have this game and one against the SJS before the TDD.

4-2 Canucks, Bo breaks out again with 2. He shouldn't have any problem getting around the Pylon

I've always enjoyed watching Dion play against the Sedins. Hopefully we see that match up tonight.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Can't wait to see Granlund! The trade was pure Wizardry on Bennings part. When Tony Gallagher (Blobbee HFBoards favourite human) says that Smurkaruk "is not a top 6 forward in the NHL, he's a TOP 3!" Ya just know that the smurfette won't amount to a hill of beans

Fuckin eh. When we got Granlund I was curious if he would play with Vey.

Meat and potatoes is correct. Two chuck steaks and a bag of potatoes with thorns growing off it.

I hope Hamhuis blocks lots of shots.

It's totally a great idea to keep playing him, he's a complete unknown to NHL scouts and if they don't see him play in a late-February game against Ottawa they'll go elsewhere. :roll: I mean there are just so many other proven top-4 defensemen available right now.

Come on boys, it ain't over tilmit's over. Win one for the Gipper, avoid the losing culture, go on a run, the wild card is still doable. Yeah baby! WIN!!!!

Real Canucks fans value wins in February for 12th in the West over an awesome draft pick.

Real Canucks fans are too impatient for a proper rebuild! "Win now suck later!" they cry, their Cariboo Lagers tightly clenched in sweaty hamfists.

Hmmm... so you're saying Mr Benning can rebuild this team into a contender?

That we should be patient?
