Who’s Hot:

Who’s Not:

• Tyler Myers: No points in his last 13 GP and has been relegated to the bottom pairing.

• Brock Boeser: Having a quiet few games in his last 4, with only 1 assist in that time frame.

 

Who to Watch for:

• Oscar Fantenberg: Watch for the possible Canucks debut of Fantenberg as Edler suffered an UBI at last night's game and is being re-evaluted later today. 
• Jake Virtanen: Watch for Virtanen to continue picking up steam after recording points in back to back games.

 

 

Sick Bay:

• Alex Edler: UBI, being evaluated, no timeline

A repeat performance would be great.

 

[-DLC-]

Hey that was fun, let's do it again!

 

Back to back wins versus the greasy Oilers would be great.

[sonoman]

[Bo fan]

Hope they have enough left in the tank for a repeat performance tonight

Welcome home boys

Go Canucks Go

[You Mad Bro?]

Exactly one third of the season done. Good time to look at some real numbers. All of our young core are on pace for career years!

 

Pettersson - 93 points

Miller - 81 points

Boeser - 72 points

Horvat - 69 points 

Hughes - 66 points 

 

The future is here. The future is bright. Go Canucks go

[IBatch]

 The list of defenseman quickest to 25 points ....  loaded with amazing players and Q Hughes just looks right joining them.   If he keeps it up he has a chance of breaking Lidsters record....as a rookie.   Great time to be a fan, the hockey is almost always entertaining again, win or lose, and you can feel that good things are coming.   Beat these bums and we are right back in the mix - hope we start December on the right foot.

[Gaudette Celly]

Green > Tippett

 

And tonight he gets last change.  Spector talking about splitting up McD and D for tonight -- sure, dilute the only offense they have.  

 

Neal has cooled off.  Template now in place to beat the Coil; once the rest of the league also catches on they'll sink back to where they belong.

[VaNux]

Great October, Tough November (brutal schedule). December will be the determining month for us. We have a relatively easy schedule, tons of home games, a bunch of rest........ So let's kick it off by crushing Edmonton! 

[billabong]

Taking 4 points on this home and home against a division rival would be amazing for our playoff hopes!

 

happy to see Fantenberg finally getting a game 

[YEGCanuck]

If the good guys do nothing else they need to pay close attention to McDick. I realize that may easier said than done, but his goal last night was due to Edler watching the puck rather than the player. If you do all you can to neutralize McDick and Drai you have a excellent chance to win the game. GCG!

[Toyotasfan]

Travis Green seems to hate changing his lineup after a win. But I hope Rousell plays , i hope Edler doesn’t try to play hurt and Fatenburg plays, and if Sutter and Beags are ready , get them in too. 

The more fresh legs the better after a road trip. Keep up the energy.

[xereau]

 

[NHTyrany]

Canucks can make the Rog their turf with a dominating December at home. It starts today! GCC

 

 

[Guest]

Louie had a very good game yesterday, can’t keep him out of the lineup. 
I wonder if Goldy goes down and Roussell comes up to sit a game in the press box?  
 

I have a feeling that Bo’s going to pick up a couple of greasy goals tonight! 
 

See you all at 7pm

[Coconuts]

You know they're gonna be coming hard at us after losing last night, here's hoping we can contain McDavid and Draistaitl again as best we can. Four points against a division rival would be massive considering how tight the Pacific is looking right now. 

 

Be nice to get a win in front of the fans too, we're at home most of December and need to use these opportunities to bank some points. 

[Rick_theRyper]

To add to an earlier post secondary players on pace for;

Jake V       21g-15a

Adam G     18g-15a

Tanner P.    21g- 30a

 

 

 

 

 

Loui Erickson 3goals 

 

I kid good game last night #21

Yeah I'm pumped too! I don't remember the last time I had such a high level of anticipation of how the lines were going to shake down 

[Nuck1991]

cant see us winning in regulation tonight. 

oilers 4-2

[CptCanuck16]

16:00 minutes to Erickson last night. He was a big reason why EDM's big line was held to just a single goal. His 4-2 goal against the play was the back breaker that iced it for the Canucks. Hopefully he gets another shot at playing with Bo tonight.
