Nuxfanabroad Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 He said that he will help the team? When did he state the he is the next Roy or Brodeur? 1) You're putting words in peoples mouths 2) You can't read 3) You're the reason other fans, players, and teams hate us so much.

stonecoldstevebernier Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Would like to see some of the bubble guys compete a little harder. Something tells me there will be quite a few cuts after this game. Bottom 6 bubble guys who have proven something so far IMO: Gaunce Schroeder Archibald Weise Santorelli I would send all the rest down now if the final cuts were being made already.

DeNiro Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I wonder if Tortorella will have the balls to pull Luongo after a couple of softies. At 3-1 we still have a chance. 4-1 and it's game over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB5 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Faceoffs were excellent this game at least. Gaunce = 60% Henrik = 56% Richardson = 89% Santorelli = 71% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergioMomesso Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 That was embarrassing. When was the last time this team won a hockey game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Schroeder hasn't played yet (although perhaps you meant Shinkaruk. Or that even by not playing, Schroeder has outplayed Horvat and Jensen. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tangelos Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 this team would get lit up like a christmas tree with Lack and Eriksson as a tandem nothing against them but they are not starters yet yes it is preseason hell it's September soon to be October where in both months luongo has always struggled if Luongo actually wanted out he would sit out and not be playing so come back with any conspiracy theory you want about Luongo not wanting to be here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SergioMomesso Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 So when was it that there was an opportunity to trade luo? Would you be praising GMMG if he traded Luo for a guy who probably would never lace up for the canucks and had to eat part of Luo's cap hit in the deal? As I see it GM MG couldn't even give him away.

LeanBeef Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 My Thoughts Kassian- looks alot stronger and faster. He didn't seem to have balance issues which was an issue of his last year. Wasn't very good in the first half of the game but picked up the pace during the second half and made some slick passes. Sedins- Good on the PK and PP but seemed to make alot of bad passes and killed a few plays in the first half of the game. Improved a bit later on but not by much. Garrison- played solid, great to see him shoot alot Bieksa- Casual Kev in his own zone and pretty good in the O Zone. Horvat- Not bad yet not good and Not ready for the NHL. Reminds me of Hodgson when he played for us in the pre season; too slow to showcase anything Jensen- Disappointing again, was pretty invisible this game, hopefully he picks it up Gaunce- Really good positionally, looks slow but played great on the forecheck with DeFazio and Santorelli. Hansen- Played good as usual, hard working etc... had some chemistry with Hunter Shinkaruk- played really well, IMO better than last game. Made some Kane like plays including a few beautiful saucer passes DeFazio- didn't really know what to expect from him but he played okay. Santorelli- Reminded me of Ebbett from 11-12; which was the Ebbett that played really well for us Richardson- Worked hard and clearly wanted to prove that the third line spot is his Stuart- soft, and really had no input on the game Andersson- solid, but looked gassed at time Tanev- Got hit hard a few times and made some good passes. His shot has gotten harder Negrin/Mullen- didn't see enough of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winthecup Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Let that be a lesson: don't start slow. Everyone has to be ready to play right from the get-go Very disappointing game from Luongo. Yes it's preseason, yes he is getting used to new pads...but he's been a goalie for a long time now. He is considered elite. That means you keep your team in it till they find their legs. Those were bad goals he gave up there. He is faulted on at least 2/4. There's something to be said for being able to just make a steady save. How many times have we heard the line "goalie X kept his team in it and the team rewarded him once they got going". He is paid to keep the game close even when the team is being outshot. Luongo still looks awkward on plays from weird angles. He has always been terrible at shots from behind the net and it'll be even worse now that there's more room to players to work from back there. Loved the games of Garrison, Richardson, Santorreli, Gaunce, and Shinkaruk. Not a very good game by Jensen. He definitely doesn't look like a veteran of 2 prior training camps. I like some of the ideas Torts is putting out there. Not enough time to really see how it's working though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonecoldstevebernier Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Schroeder played very well in the scrimmages, and Torts was very complimenting of his game. At 600k I can almost guarantee he'll be on the opening night roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nazzy_rocks23 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I would not be surprised if Horvat will be sent back soon. You can see that he will be a pretty solid player, but he needs to go back and dominate the OHL this year. Reminds me of CoHo in his first showing in Vancouver. Gaunce has the edge over him making this team right now given his strong 2way game. Not to mention he has scored 2/3 of our preseason goals...

lx Birdie xl Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 As people have said.. Its preseason.. And we all know Lou does not start playing well until November.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silfverberg Snipes Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 The offensive creativity in this team is zilch. Even the Sedin's have been reduced to running the ENTIRE pp through the point men. On the flipside Nurse would be the perfect complimentary player to quarterback our pp. The Oilers have absolute studs offensively in him and the other D man who's name started with an M.
