.....the next few games will be very telling.

If his play picks up all the Miller naysayers will leap to EP's defense claiming the Canucks have their Datsky back and the Word is our Oyster.

The truth, however, might just be that the little Petunia threw a year of our Canuck Fandom lives away with his soft as butter character flaws.
I see him standing there on the blueline during the anthem with a fresh "A" sewn onto his jersey. Not worthy of it before now.....he better show us he is now.
Prove me wrong.

Motherfucker.
A-fucking-one.

probably need to wait for a few games to see the actual stats on his top velocity (which has been way below his career average this season)

It will be the same reason they sucked or played better all season - the defence. Having Hronek and Forbort in the defence instead of Friedman and Deharnais is what has made all the difference.
If the defence can stay healthy, they have a good chance at the post season.
Been saying this ad nauseum from almost Day 1 of this season... but people want to keep focusing on the drama instead.

Pretty sure this mini-Lever winning streak is proof of that.

Nothing wrong with that effort in the 1st. Now....40 more minutes?

I'm behind.....7 minutes to go in the 1st still.

So far our new alternate captain is getting manhandled by Dallas defenders.

Look, I have no problem with Elias Pettersson...

He seems to have some potential as a defenceman.

Terrible problem to have. One can't turn. The other can't turn it on.

Down with the Petterssons!

The realization of excess self induced pressure has dawned on him.

In all seriousness, it's always good to see a homegrown defensive prospect look like he might actually have an NHL career.

This franchise hasn't been very successful in this area to say the least. Hope to see Willander at the end of the season.

Bad PK there letting two cross-ice passes through the slot before the goal.

They can still pull this out but Demko has to be better.
