I still want to see Zed hit the Scottish out of McDavid. Just David after tonight.

The shot total should be higher, The shot counter has been very niggardly to the Canucks that way. Probably should be a dozen more shots. But still, Skinner has stunk. Maybe it's Picard's time to stink?

The solid positioning of your posts are always visible and cannot be out-challenged by the dumb-pucks.

Picard in the captain's chair? Make it so, #1.

#2, not #1. Shitting the bed smells way worse than a bit of pee.

The whining out here has reached a frenzy. I am all gaunt and dried out from power wanking a dozen times a day

theman wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2024 11:25 am I wonder if the idea, with the Oil coaches, in starting Pickard is to get the rest of the team to play a tighter game and a bit more structured.

This is what has me concerned. In nobody’s mind is Pickard a starter at the NHL level, however, neither was Aidin Hill, Matt Murray, or Jordan Binnington. Hell even Dwayne Roloson was looking to be washed up when Edmonton acquired him and he went on a hot streak. Goalies can get hot, and when a goaltender comes in with questionable experience because the starter either faltered or got hurt, teams rally.

Knob is also splitting up his dynamic duo for the first time since game 1. McDavid would be a threatening first line with Lucic and Derek Boogard. It’s gonna be a tough game tonight.

the only thing i'm concerned with the picard move is that


canucks often have the tendency to turn back-up or 3rd string goalies into vezina candidates

everyone turns into crest crusher

our already low shot volume and low quality shots aren't gonna help either


hopefully they just reach 25 shots today and we'd win

4-2 Canucks

5-2 Oilers

Will depend upon how many PPs they give Edmonton.

We can't keep spending 20+ minutes a game playing Green hockey.. need a full 60 minutes and we're the better team.

Canucks need to come out hard and keep the momentum, and keep the Coilers on their heels. Get a quick one or 2 on Pickard.
Just win ffs

Agree, a strong first 20 and get a couple past Pickard is key. Completely destroy the oil's faith in their goalies, will lead to victory tonight.
