Gauncer, the Hawk killer! Archiballz got a goal his first game back, now Gauncer. Hopefully Gauncer comes back hungry and works hard everynite to make it hard for mgmt to send him back down. Nice win for our guys with a depleted lineup and when our stars don't hit the scoresheet.

Is it me or is Motte fading? He’s ripe for a scratching. I like Schaller, Motte started out well but is fading fast

Goldobin has been lost since Eli got hurt. Someone needs to him Eli is back.
Ya, doesn't sense where to go anymore. It messes Pettersson up. Have to try something different.

How the hell was that hit not a penalty.

Thanks Widz...

Gudbranson - probably his best game of the season, was a Tower of Power™ back there, the stabilizing factor, kept it simple and steady.

Gaunce the Blackhawk killa. Granlund low-key the utility guy again, team Selke trophy styles.

Shotgun Jake's on fire! all those posts/crossbar shots are now goals finally!

Good to see everyone help chip in with scoring besides the big gunners in Boeser, Horvat and Pettersson.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Not surprised at Jake's success. New it was always there.
Listening to his post game interview tells me he isn't going to let anything go to his head, stay the course, both ends of the rink.

Was pretty well 2 different games. Not sure how or why but canucks totally took over the 2nd half and laid the boots to the shit hawks. Excellent.

Obviously JV has taken a big step this year. If he can sustain this and we get Brock Boeser back from injury we are fuckin loaded up front.

The goaltending by JM has been an adventure but he seems to be holding things together for the moment.

I have absolutely no idea how the defense is hanging in there with the injuries and the talent we have back there but its absolutely the achilles heel holding us back from maybe making a legitimate push.

I wouldn't be shocked to see a trade for a puck moving/ offensive type dman to prop up that gaping hole. We get hemmed in too much by quick forechecking teams

Yeah I am worried that they are part cannibals, I guess anything to put fear in the other teams.

HW - who did you hear this rumour from?

Keeping things simple plus not having their Fire Captain in their own zone off the team helps. I also see a lot of back checks, JV was in front of the net when he saw his 2 defence teammates battling along the boards. That is good team playing and being situational, not only JV but others are being better in their own end, heck even EP is doing his thing in their own end.

Good point. Firing up that 2nd scoring line was the key. Did the cocks switch defense partners accordingly as well?

Read a little on their bitch page and theyre laying the goat horns at the feet of Manning
