If Green plays LE over Mac I would love to hear why. I hope that if this happens, somebody from media  has balls to ask a straight question- why, coach, why?

Louie is better defensively then Zack and kills penalties. 
i prefer Zack as a player but we are playing against the top line in all of hockey and a deadly power play.

My ideal lineup:

 

Miller-Petey-Virt

Pearson-Horvat-Toffoli

Roussel-Gaudette-MacEwan

Motte-Beagle-Sutter.

As the games are getting tighter, "the cream is rising to the top". Miller and Hughes are continuing on as business as usual, the rest? well?

Motte and Toffoli definitely know how to play in a "play-off like" atmosphere. 

Time for others to show what kind of character they are made of.

Yup.  Far too many passengers lately.  Lack of fight when battling for pucks and ice position.  Eriksson getting top line minutes doesn't send a very good message about rewarding perfomance  but does explain Green's head space.and why the team fails to generate offense.

This will be the litmus test for the Canucks.  Depending on how well we do, will determine JB trade deadline actions on Monday. 

 

Still think we need a top 4 D in order to get past the 1st round and beyond.  But hopefully, JB doesn't go crazy and mortgage the farm.

I think a big, punishing top 6 D would work just fine. Just need Tanev to stop being a pillow.

So moron Green plans to go with Loui again

 

seems like he wants to get himself fired and be done with it 

 

so we lose our last 2 games, why bother doing anything different? 
 

our penalty kill sucks so anyone who says Loui should be in for that purpose is dead wrong

 

[HockeyHarry]

IMO ....this is a good game to have tonight...a Win over the Bruins could really get this team rolling for the playoffs.

Hey Green you do realize that your boss stated publicly that McEwen is ready to be an everyday player 

 

looks like insubordination to me

I'm no Loui fan but I like having him in against Boston. 

I bet he has a good game tonight.

Looks good, although I’d probably swap Roussel And Motte.

I’d like to see Toffoli paired with Pearson on Horvat’s line due to previous chemistry, Virtanen on the top line, and Eriksson on the third or fourth or fifth line.

Or just send Loui straight to Kalamazoo

From chartered flights in the NHL to chartered buses in the AHL to having to UberXL to games in the ECHL.

Hopefully Vintage says MacEwan was on a line in practice today. 

It’s an optional skate this morning, so won’t know the lines until warm-up.

Plus gotta buy your own sticks. All good though. Loui can pay it from the millions he has stolen from this organization.

Not Tanev's game...let's face it, Quinn's doing really great paired with CT so he's doing something right.  I prefer him to continue doing what he does.

5 very hard games, but could get this Team really gelling as a solid unit.

Yes OK sure but it shouldn't be at the cost of our second scoring line
