did mcdavid play tonight?

Yeah but people saying the Joshua Garland Lindholm line was our best line might be over-emphasizing their production a bit (great game for that line) to the exclusion of the checking line(s) that kept Him th' Godly One not only goal-less, but shot-less and severely jangled (see post-game whine viddy).  Best player in the world became a whiny little bitch. (stolen from Predator's shout at Quinn laying on the ice, "Shut up! (or Get up?) you whiny little bitch!"- which I found to be fairly humorous).  Trying to give some credit to Miller & Company etc.

I think he really wanted Petie to get a EN too. Which would have been great 

That's what I was cheering for; but of course, would have accepted any Canuck goal (plus that would have made 6, count 'em, SIX UNANSWERED GOALS in about 23 minutes of game time.  Skinner still thinks 5 unanswered goals gave the Canucks motivation; like to what?  Arty Party!!

Some of the subtle moves management made at the beginning of the season that made me say 'meh'  really are paying dividends . Good one management.

Yep, its almost as if they tried it before, and they know, what they are doing 🙂

 

Great move by FA to finally get a President in and give him free reigns...

Those assholes are relentless. I bought one thing on there, and then subsequently cancelled the order, and they've sent me numerous emails a day saying that I have an unopened "surprise" or "free" gift.

Petey needs Lekkerimaki.  Is he available to play some shifts for the Canucks? Even if he's just used as a PP specialist with sheltered mins.  I'd see what we have in him, I think he'd inject some juice in Petey.

 

 

Lekkerimaki was not even impactful in the AHL,…the game is quick & he is undersized & still very vulnerable out there.

 

Sure, he’s a bonafide snipper, but would not be of benefit to the big club one iota, as of yet.

I'd take that tradeoff any day.

 

If it leads to a win, who gives a crap?

I think any fan should be pissed that he has 3 playoff points . It will lead to losses down the road. He's supposed to be our top gun.

Left the game when down 2 quickly..kinda superstitious, & decided to get some errands done. Check the score later to see 5-4!

 

Just SO beautiful!

 

SIGN Big Zads, eh?

Wow.  I have shown up early, way early, and stayed late to every Canuck game I have ever attended. 

Given, there are not that many, maybe a few dozen over the 50 years, but, Wow Man! 

You must lead a tremendously full life, and have money to burn, to walk out of a Canuck Playoff Game so early. 

The Nux were down 2 in the first period weren't they? 

The first two goals were Coilers' weren't they? 

I think Da Kota-Karma Dun Bit You In The Marchand! 

Even Kelly Hrududu said it was the most exciting game he's seen since 1994! 

SMH.  You and I are so soooooooooooooooooooo different.

are you going to be complaining about it while he's hoisting the cup, too? christ. 

 

pissing and moaning about your own team is such an insufferable trait.

You do you, man.

 

If we lose, I'll be upset. If we win, and Petey's contribution is defensive only, then we still win, and I'll be happy.

 

Better to have the team wins than personal performance.

No I wasn't actually there..sorry, if I expressed that in a misleading form. Watch every game on the tube, & been watching since the 70's.

 

If a game starts lousy, sometimes go out & do other things. Call it superstition, or minding the blood pressure, whatever...

Really enjoy watching it later, when there's a miracle comeback.

His 3 points currently will lead to losses down the road? How does that work out?

That's pure speculation.

Yeah me too. I'm like what the F#*k is with these assassins. I feel like they're hiding in the trees when I go out on the deck for a puff, or in the backseat of my car on the way to the gym, just whispering "claaaaaaaim your giiiiiiiiiiiiiiift .... now ... or you'll regrrrrrrrrrrret it"

i kinda feel bad for edmonton fans

 

theyve had the easiest cheatcode to win the cup

 

Jim Benning could have put together a winning team for them

 

they had SO many options this offseason and even at the trade deadline

 

instead they spent their assets and cap space on: forwards like Henrique, buttplugs like Perry, and barrels of toxic waste like Kane

 

 

Just a waste of their focus on certain player.  They need defense and goaltender and they have focused on players like this.  Talk about priority.

this team really does remind me of Tocchett’s 2018-20 Coyotes.  I remember when the Canucks would play them how hard they got after the puck.  I was beginning to respect that team at the time. W the Canucks Tocchett has more firepower at his disposal.  This style

of hockey really is how Tocchett likes to see the game played.
