So he won't be able to play while that occurs. Without doing that we would be about $0.5m over cap limit.

The Bertuzzi-Larkin-Mantha line has been quite deadly. If they can be shut down then the chances are much increased. Biega might be looking to send a message. Hopefully he takes it easy on our guys. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PistolPete13 Posted October 15, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2019 Pretty funny that two guys have been calling Green an idiot over and over and over and over again and again and again. Green has a gig coaching hockey in the best league in the world. And he’s an idiot???? cool story dudes. Must suck to be you.

Totally. I just saw the tweet showing- Ferland Bo Pearson as our 2nd line. IMO that line will dominate wings L1. Wings don't have a line that can handle that. Petey's going to get some cherry deployment. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Detroit seems to always give us some trouble in our own barn. This team is young and likes to come out the gate quickly, but seem to trail off after the 2nd period. Nucks need to be disciplined and ready to go from puck drop. Detroit can sneak up on us if we aren't keeping our head up. Expecting the star players to look a little bit more sharper this game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyHarry Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 As a Canucks fan it should be an easy win, but I hope the Canucks team doesn’t take the day off thinking it’s an easy win. It’ll be good game to see what kinda team Canucks actually are right now. A lazy team or a kill hungry team looking to rack up points and get some chemistry happening. petey is a beast , I hope the rest of the team plays like a beast also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like them better if someone other than Gaudette was coming out for Motte's return. Don't get me wrong, I love Motte, but he provides pretty much nothing offensively so I don't understand why Greener takes Gaudette out for him. Leivo had a bad game, I'm sure he recognizes as much and wouldn't be a baby about a bench ride. Could even try Motte or Gaudette on Bo's RW. I'd like to see Ferland tried with Bo again too. No matter what approach Green takes, I think our top 5 will dominate their top 6 tomorrow, so maybe i shouldn't get too hung up on Gaudette.. Bo line will wear out Larkin's and Petey's line is going to click, I can feel it. Gaudette looked a bit outmatched last game - not saying he isn't gunna be a beauty but reminded me a little of Linden Vey for that game only.. Schaller has been playing well and skating hard, Jake has looked good practically every shift and in my opinion looked better than a 4th liner with his setups, and positioning... and Motte is an awesome energy guy too, and didn't he have 9 goals last season? Hey if that is the lineup, no biggie, doesn't mean Gaudette wont be back in soon, its not a bad thing we have one too many awesome guys to put in the lineup! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, that's OK because he is just learning to be an NHLer and he is not a finished product yet. if you haven't noticed, we are not getting pushed around, as we have in the past , and that's because guys like Leivo and Schaller are in the line up. They may not be burning up the score board but they are keeping guys from the "Open Season on Petey and Boes" and I am OK with that at this point in the game. In a game 7 of a SCF? Maybe I rethink this thought, but for now, I am OK with a bit of size and toughness in the line up. 1 hour ago, theo5789 said: Schaller played a pretty big part why our PK is 12 for 13 to start the year. Gaudette doesn't replace that. Schaller has been fine so far. Leivo hasn't been clinical with the puck. But he's been in the right areas to get the chances (and has the same production as EP so far). Gaudette hasn't been too noticable offensively in his first couple of games this season like he had shown in preseason. I don't see enough to suggest Green being an "idiot" based on this potential decision. Thought I would weigh on in on the minor controversy over the apparent decision to move Gaudette to the press box and play Motte. The controversial part is keeping Schaller in the line-up with Gaudette is out. In a recent interview Green made some interesting comments that I think are relevant to this decision and to the decision to send Baertschi through waivers to Utica. Green said that "analytics" show that a large and increasing amount of play is on the boards" (or something like that). This is an interesting use of analytics and does not relate to looking at Corsi numbers. Some of the team, including the Canucks, are using video to identify where things happen on the ice and apparently they have focused on board play. And don't forget that over the summer the Canucks hired Ryan Biech, who is a great local analytics guy, as video coach. Anyway, one thing Green likes about Schaller is that he is apparently good on the boards--better than Baertschi and Gaudette on this dimension. (And I have heard comments that Leivo and Motte are also pretty good on the boards). And, to be honest, Gaudette's last game was probably his weakest. Personally, I like Gaudette a lot (and Baertschi) and want to seem them both do well. But Green probably knows what he is doing and is probably getting good input from Ryan Biech.
