-DLC- Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 ^Yep (to Blackberries), the turning point. Although momentum was only with us for a bit and then LA pretty much took over for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BI3KSA- Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 My grip is just fine - he himself says he doesn't. This isn't about just mixing lines, it's strategy. One of the reasons their PP is so bad IMO. If you honestly think his gameplay doesn't change from line to line as far as exposing weaknesses of certain players etc, you are mistaken. He wants us to err on the side of aggression and to play our game, but that doesn't mean he doesn't change up the plays and strategies to target each teams weaknesses. Wanting your team to play the style they are most skilled at doesn't mean you never make adjustments. You can see Torts making adjustments in most games this year.

TheMohammadman Posted November 10, 2013 Author Share Posted November 10, 2013 they played ok until the bieksa turnover goal. Reports say that Rob Ford entered the Arena seconds before the goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboose Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Do you think Hamhuis gets a call from Shanahan? I'm guessing a fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombieksa Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 3/6 pts so far on this road trip, get to OT tomorrow and we break even. Like a lot of posters have stated. We were do for a stinker and we got it. On to the Ducks, always an entertaining game. Also, God do I miss Hansen, and to a lesser extent Weise. When those 2 get back whole new ball game my friends.

Blackberries Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 If you honestly think his gameplay doesn't change from line to line as far as exposing weaknesses of certain players etc, you are mistaken. He wants us to air on the side of aggression and to play our game, but that doesn't mean he doesn't change up the plays and strategies to target each teams weaknesses. Wanting your team to play the style they are most skilled at doesn't mean you never make adjustments.

Blackberries Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 why do they need rides outside their arena? are the events there not enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BI3KSA- Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 LOL you win. (and I miss Hansen too...never did find out what the actual injury was? Hand? Shoulder?) Looked like shoulder to me, but I'm not sure if we ever got confirmation on the specifics on the injury. Maybe I missed the info though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Sestito Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 LOL you win. No it's all good. I just get a double-standard feeling from GDT's. That's why I stay away from them 75% of the time. The only one I disagreed with was the Sestito charging call in the 3rd. Yeah, he was playing like a goon in the 3rd. But then again, the refs should have just let it go when the game's that out of reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that set me off and I was WATCHING for them to get away with similar plays. I do wish the refs would let it go (more)...that's more my gripe than anything. A guy with concussion history...I saw the Getzlaf hit up close and personal so cringe when he gets hammered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningWild Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Also, gotta talk about the Garrison/Edler pairing. More so, Edler. What the heck is up with him this year? I said in GDT, he wanted to be the Canucks top paid blueliner - and he has 6 pts in 16 games to show for it. He has the lowest point total of any Canucks blueliner - (not by much, but it's a concern). Him and Garrison are not doing well paired together. They have the worst underlying numbers of all the pairings. The problem with splitting them up is, the other 2 pairings are dynamite together - you can't split them up. It's 1/4 way into season, I think they should call up Corrado and sit Edler for a few games. Send a message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K PureCool Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 First game of the season? Or the 2nd Sharks game? Those two games were closer than the score suggest. At least the team played well enough. This game was just horrid with the Nucks not playing well at all. I consider this to be more of a blowout than the those to game. At the very least those were somewhat fun to watch unlike this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Edler honestly seems unfocused at times to me. Love when he lays out a big hit, but seems to zone out. Not sure...I heard he likes to sleep a lot (on the plane, etc.) so maybe he's just lethargic? Some of his passes are hard enough to be shots...on one or two, we turned over the puck as a result.
