The way he threw Roussel to the ice was hilarious. Is that what 26 is? Another diver? Or is Lucic still that strong? If Benning was to trade for a goon, I’d rather it be Lucic than Simmonds. He has the psycho mindset this team is completely devoid of. They’re so timid, it’s pathetic. They’re rudderless. Give them a break. We're getting dummied (literally and figuratively) so they need something that they can hold on to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A commitment to do absolutely nothing to deter players from hacking the $&!# out of our best players. All the &^@#ing time Candy ass, cutesy poo nice guys that will get embarrassed in the playoffs if they're healthy enough to get there. I thought the "skate away with head down guys" routine was supposed to end with the twins. Retire those &^@#ing numbers and nut up It is about Lucic, though. Most teams are designed for skill and speed. Players like Lucic legitimately scare players. Still. He’s a psycho. For real. Not that stable. By the way, Scott Oake is the master of between period interviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Templeton Peck Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Edler needs to do one of his hits where he steps up and just level Backlund. Then Markstrom and Petey can start punching him while he's down. It can be all Swedish affair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podkolzin, I mean he's not huge at 6'1 192lbs but stylistically that's where his game is IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horvat has shown nothing other than put up points to warrant the captaincy. Nice guys finish last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

higgyfan Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 2 minutes ago, VancouverHabitant said: But it is... Lucic is the nuclear deterrent. Nobody on the Canucks wants to fight him. Outside of maybe 2 or 3 guys in the league, he's still the toughest SOB out there. Everybody on the Vegas Knights plays bigger because of Reaves, and the same holds true for the Flames and Lucic. I would've loved to see the Louie for Lucic swap but Louie didn't approve the deal from the sounds of it. Agreed. There's very few hockey players that fight like those guys (and I would add Guddy as well). They dance around like the others. They can do a lot of damage in a short period of time. Other players do not want any of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 The way the Canucks are handling the abuse given to Pettersson is not helping the argument for the team to not acquire Simmonds. Vancouver media going to light that rumor on fire now and milk it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracksuit Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Do we have any players that can throw a body check in the entire system if so they should replace those on the softest 4th line in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
