Blueberries Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Some Star Wars for ya: Quote CANUCKS (11-14-8) at RED WINGS (16-9-6) TV: SN, FS-D+ Season Series: Petr Mrazek made 30 saves and had the assist on Gustav Nyquist's goal in overtime in a 3-2 Detroit Red Wings victory against the Vancouver Canucks on Oct. 24. Detroit overcame a 2-0 third-period deficit. Alexandre Burrowshad two assists for the Canucks, and Ryan Miller made 25 saves. Canucks team scope: Vancouver could be without captain Henrik Sedin, who left a 2-0 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday with a lower-body injury. Coach Willie Desjardins said it wasn't a new injury but that the Canucks would call up a forward from Utica of the American Hockey League in case Sedin can't go. "I've been aware of [the injury] for a little bit. Hopefully he'll have a good night and we'll see where he is tomorrow," Desjardins said after the game. "It'll get tougher. But it'll give other guys a chance in maybe different roles. You never know." Henrik Sedin is second on the team in scoring (nine goals, 31 points). The Canucks have lost three straight games and have been shut out twice during that span. Red Wings team scope: Jimmy Howard, who has lost his past two starts, will be in net; he and Mrazek have alternated starts in the past eight games. Forward Thomas Tatar, who has played in all 31 games this season, was ill on Wednesday but practiced Thursday and expects to play. "I feel better. I just had a little fever, was day-to-day," Tatar told the Red Wings website after practice. "No hurt parts, nothing injured or anything. Just feeling a little under the weather." Detroit is 8-1-5 in its past 14 games. Defenseman Kyle Quincey practiced with the team for the first time since having ankle surgery on Nov. 14. He said he expects to travel with the team following the holiday break but didn't put a timetable on his return to the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo.Horvat53 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Lol at Darth Weber. Also I hope it's Friesen coming up and not Vey. 5-1 Red Wings. Miller plays lights out but gives up 4 on 43 shots. Canucks register only 18 shots the whole game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honky Cat Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I predicted a win in Philly for the Canucks (that was their best chance on this road trip..IMO)....They will be in very tough against the Wings (actually,..against anybody right now),coming off a back to back ,with key regulars out of the lineup...Having said that,watch them win the game...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Biestra Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Darth Weber works as a name, but really he's more of a Salacious Crumb or Boss Nass when it comes to hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil_314 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 LOL nice idea for "Star Wars: the Tank Awakens". Tough to envision any good result tomorrow, with the roster depleted as it is. Gotta feel for whoever the #1 center is, since among the available guys (Bo/ McCann/ Cracker/ whoever they call up) none of them are really ready for the role. If they pick either Bo or McCann just hope their confidence wouldn't be too shot if the Wings' big guns overpower them and they feel out of their comfort zone, and I wouldn't mind if they put a veteran winger with center experience (e.g. Burr/ Higgins) there just to buffer them. Alternatively, Bo would be a solid choice also as some coaches like to let their guys play through ruts and Bo can learn as he plays against tough competition. Not sure of the scorers but predicting 3-0 or 4-1 Wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonecoldstevebernier Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Love the GDT. Unfortunately won't be able to watch this one but I'm gonna say 2-1 Wings in OT, Edler with the goal. Think there will be a bounce back in terms of effort but without Henrik it doesn't seem likely the offense will follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
