I remember who got Pettersson hooked on video games; I was Adam Guadette.

 

AHL first team Allstar Gaudette?

Love to see Pods get in, but gm1 it might be wise to emphasize vet-presence.

 

Not going to 2nd-guess their lineup, after the campaign we just saw the coaches pull off. How ever this series plays out, don't expect we'll ever question their preparation, nor motivation.

I love playoff hockey, going fishing tomorrow back by 6 in time for the game, hoping to see 2 months of this! Canucks will come out swinging, preds are pretenders, be happy you made now move out of our way as we march to the cup!

I don’t understand the love for DiGuiseppe. Podz offers way more out there. I think it’s a mistake. I just don’t see why DiGeseppe is even on the nhl team quite frankly.

Tocchet mention that he hopes there ain't no Snap Back penalties for either team. Some teams cheat more than others trying to draw penalties.  I'm glad we're not one of them. 

If a team snap backs against us, again, we should chant SNAP BACK.

He's another Megna, Ebbett, ect.  Does literally nothing useful and just wastes a roster spot.

I think that's a good choice on Garland on PP 1

I don’t like Soucy on the powerplay. Pp2 doesn’t play much anyways but Soucy is a great defender, just doesn’t have much offensive flare. Would rather have Zadorav parked infront of the net

That's an old school mentality to put a big body with no hands in front of net.  Zadorov is a defenceman through and through, and is better served dishing from the point.  Better to put someone who can reliably tip pucks or at least clean up rebounds.  Dakota Joshua would be a good example.  Höglander is small but he can also finish in front of the net.

For whatever reason every coach in Van has to have a teachers pet.

"Hands of Stone" Gaudette.

 

Maybe in the NHL, but he leads all AHL'ers in goals with 44 over 66 games.  None too shabby

Just hoping for the boys to play their game for game 1.  Can't start running around and letting the adrenaline get them in trouble.  Stick to the system.  Game 1 win would be huge, let's go boys.

Think this is just coaches in general. Have one of those hard working grinders on their team that they just fall in love with. Probably comes from the fact most coaches never really played high level hockey or were good secondary pieces. So they see a lot of themselves in the depth guys. Love PDG, but I don't think he should be in. But who knows, maybe Tocc's belief in him will bring something out of PDG. Playoffs can bring out something special in some players.
