We are not playing well at all, and need a spark. A new coach (Babs) would bring that spark. Your delorean might need a spark now and then but this team is doing A ok. 49 shots against in a losing effort and everyone rides pine next game (just like bailey) this win was of epic proportions from marky and these are game you make trophies about. I’ve played games where we were outshot 56-4. I scored the only goal from my one end(fluky as fudge) needless to say our goalie met his future wife that night. Got a pair of kids now aswell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least willing to risk/question the relationship between him and the team to hope for a trade and re-sign?

Raspberries Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Just made it back home from the game. what an amazing experience. The Canucks could not have done a better job with the ceremony. The ovations for Linden and Kesler were emotional. Thank you Rogers. You can tell Trevor really needed that too. Bieksa. How is that man not employed full time by Sportsnet? Brilliant. Loved the speeches from the Sedins. 100% Class. The game. Marky. Marky. Marky. That is it. Thank you Hank and Danny. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MVP. 2 hours ago, BlueDragon23 said: Marky was lit tonight! Stellar performance. PK was solid. Not our best game, but we got the win on Sedin night! Thanks again to our Swedish twins who brought us so many memories! Love ya Hank and Danny! Big Night in Canuck history -- the night the Canucks give their highest honour to the Sedin twins. Oh, and there was a hockey game too. Here are my takeaways. 1. The ceremony was very moving. Great job by Shorty, by the Canucks, and by the Sedins. I am sure there were quite a few tears shed in the arena and at home. It certainly brought back a lot of memories. It was good to see Kesler get a big ovation from the crowd. Yes, he was a jerk, but he was also a great player for the Canucks who put 100% on the ice every night and was a big part of the great team we had for a few years. I also really enjoyed the big ovation Trevor Linden received. 2. The Sedins recognized a lot of people. It was good to see them acknowledge Crow and it was typical of them to mention the trainers and equipment guys as well as the big names. It is obvious the Sedins have a very high regard for their teammates, but especially Naslund, Edler, and Linden. My sentiments exactly. 3. And it was good to see so many people show up -- real testimony to the Sedins as people. Good to see their former GMs there, among others. As Elliot Friedman said, a lot of the people there don't get a long too well with each other, but they put the Sedins ahead of their own egos. Great to see, 4. On to the game. The big story is pretty obvious--Marky, with not just a steal, but with grand larceny. And it was great to see him finally get another shutout. He has been excellent this year but this was just his second shutout of the season and he had only one all last year. He really deserved this one and set a Canuck record for the most saves by a goalie in a shutout win. 5. After the emotional ceremony with the Canucks there on the bench I was not surprised to see the team get a slow start, It must have been hard to get their minds (and their feet) into the game. And the Canucks did bounce back in the later part of the first period and got a nice goal from Horvat. But the Canucks never really got untracked. However, while Chicago dominated play, it was not quite as bad as the shot totals suggest as Chicago was taking a lot of low probability shots (along with quite a few high danger chances as well). The Canucks seemed to get a fair amount of o-zone time without actually getting a shot attempt. I admit that Chicago did dominate plays. It just was not quite a bad as it looked from Corsi numbers or shot totals. 6. Credit to Sutter. I have generally been critical of Sutter ever since the trade but I think tonight might have been his best game as a Canuck. Sutter is not regarded as a great passer, but he made a couple of very nice passes on the first two Canuck goals. And he deserved to get the empty netter at the end. He played an excellent game on the PK as well. So, credit to Sutter. I really hope he can keep it up. 7. Bailey got only 3 minutes of ice-time. Part of the issue was penalties as the Canucks had 5 penalties to kill off, along with some empty net minutes at the end. Bailey started the game playing with Beagle and Eriksson, but Beagle and Eriksson are key guys on the PK. After every PK, the Horvat line and EP line would get big minutes. The other part of it was that Green was just struggling to get good defensive combinations on the ice, especially in the third period, and apparently does not yet have a lot of confidence in Bailey. (Of course, for all I know maybe Bailey was hurt, but my guess is that the issue was tactical.) 8. Great to get the win on the night the Sedin numbers go the rafters. It caps off a great night. Now the Canucks can get some rest and they should come back strong on Sunday against Anaheim. Edited February 13, 2020 by JamesB 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t you puke a little bit seeing him in another jersey? Ugh. Those people remind me of some friends I had that said trade the Sedins. We need guys like elder and Taney around to build culture. Of course we can trade all of our players and win the cup but none of those players would be OURS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But... we have been outshot badly quite a few times this year. More than normal, but marky has been having a career year. A contract year will do that. I think once were healthy and the team is clicking well start outshooting teams again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem for the @Alflives 'theory'.... The team is 10-5 with Demko starting. Kindly show me the last time a 'bottom 5' team won .667 of their backup's starts....if the Canucks are 'bottom 5'....without Markstrom. ....the other 4 team's backups are 20-50... a .286 winning percentage.
