Today's HNIC Lineup

1. Is Auston Matthews still sick?

2. This Boeser guy seems good

3. Daniel hit 1000 points the other night, whatever, his brother did it first

4. Why isn't this GDT any better?

 

 

[Slegr]

Yeaaah!, going to the game tonight with wife and kids. Big win coming!

[JM_]

This is one of the rare times the 4pm start screw-over may work in our favour. The guys have been playing at this time for 6 games on the road so the early start shouldn't give the Leaves much of an advantage. 

 

I really want to see Edler step up and take the lead and hit someone like he's able to. 

[Canucks-12]

Its gonna be a fun evening!

[Cramarossa]

What a great picture of Loui! He looks like the elf on a shelf.

 

As usual, predicting a big Canucks WIN! 4-2, goals by Loui, Danny, Brock, and Bo. Gotta ride the hot hands.

[canuckfromlangley]

The yearly road/home game against the laughs. Hope Rogers shows Daniels ceremony instead of talking about the laughs. I hope the Canucks Crush them. GCG

[Zhukini]

Score first, keep that crowd quiet. Go Canucks!

[Darius]

Keep your head up Brock, that puke Kadri will be coming for you.  

 

I would dress Nilsson, not because of goaltending reasons, but because hes now the toughest guy on the team.  lol. If Martin tries to pull the same crap as last year in the corner against one of the kids, it wont be 160lb Miller coming after him, it will be an eclipse! 

[Ghostsof1915]

I hope Brock gets a hat-trick so all I can hear is excuses that Matthews is having an off night. 

 

GO CANUCKS GO!

[brownky]

Laffs Suck.

 

Go Canucks.

 

 

That is all.

"We'd like to announce that game time will be moved to 2 AM PT as Auston Matthews is reported to have a hangnail and will also require a nap after having it attended to by medical staff, the CBC and the Canadian Government.  We suggest you tune in at the regularly scheduled time for 10 hours of pre game coverage that will include:   The Maple Leaf History, 1917-Now; How Auston Matthews Got His Name;  How The Shades of Blue and White Were Created; and a musical rendition of The Night Before Leafsmas as performed on kazoos by the team" for your our enjoyment.

[Heated Blue]

I want to see a fun entertaining game. Keep pushing boys and show everyone what you are capable of. 

 

Go Canucks Go!

I feel like every home game against the Leafs is the first one back after a road trip too.

11. Someone crushing Kadri.

[luckylager]

I hate it. Pretty sure the last time the Laffs came to town it was a 4PM game.

I hate catering to those clowns. Makes me have little day dreams of Guddy just skating around beating the hell out of every goof in blue and white he can get his mitts in.

 

Kadri skating around crying like a terrified child. Matthews and Marner curled up in the fetal position, cuddling, sucking their thumbs behind the net...

 

Bummed I'll be missing the third period getting to my staff party. I hope the boys absolutely slaughter the leafs, but I'm expecting painfully biased officiating as per league regs vs leafs.

 

Kick their a**es, boys!

 

[pluralsight]

Funny how there's no mention of the Laffs on the TSN page, even though it's a gameday for them. Probably because they would have to give the Canucks some attention.

All are possible except #7

 

I don't care about Edler's stick unless he sticks it to Kadri.
