Popular Post WHL rocks Posted February 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2020 That 2nd Toffoli goal is one my fav goals for a Canuck this season. For one simple reason. He shot it right thru the Bruins goalie. Didn't pick a corner. Power shot thru the goalie. Love it! 2 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks when it happens to you but you have to put it behind you and move on. Hopefully they'll take it out on the Flames 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Darth Canuck Posted February 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2020 I hate losing to the Bruins SOOOOOOOOO MUUUUUUCH! And I hate the rats smug lil face. The bruins just put me in a place that for the whole game I’m waiting for something awful to happen, like an uncalled injury inducing hit, or a massive comeback. But tonight, OUR BOYS GAVE IT!!! I’m so proud!!! Our boys answered every single thing the bruins threw at us, whether it was a goal, a cheap hit, non call (Markstrom stick in the mask, not a high stick penalty?), fight, what ever. 9-3, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Go Canucks!!! 1 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s our best player. People thought Petey should have gone first overall. I’d argue Hughes should have went first overall as well. Highway Robbery. I thought at the start of the year if he got 50 point for the year. It would be amazing and exceed my expectations Quinn is better than Rasmus Dahlin. Much better... 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kills the awkwardness, a true leader. I posted a comment last night which wasn't received well, I said the Bruins move their younger players much quicker into their lineup than we do. Chara tells you why nobody is labelled with lesser expectations. Respect! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JamesB Posted February 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) 42 minutes ago, DownUndaCanuck said: Probably the best full team effort by the Canucks in what I would say years,... 4) I thought Motte had a hell of a game as he usually does and really is one of the best bottom-6 players in the league. He set the tempo as well and kept it going, did a monster job on an important PK as well. Beagle had a strong game as well, both guys played a hard heavy game. Roussel was the only dark spot on the night, useless penalty to get the Bruins back into the game and really didn't do anything positive.... 6) Defensively I thought we played a sound game. Edler was nice and quiet, good keep-ins and tight in his own zone. Stecher had a monster game, ....this kid always comes up big in big games and JB would be stupid to trade him. ... Fantenberg was brilliant tonight and IMO our best defenceman, he took the body well and won so many little battles along the board, and got the puck out of our zone with ease. Myers had a safe game as well, nice to see him throw his body and get a powerplay out of it. Of course, Hughes was brilliant tonight with his passing and a lovely assist. He's had some really scary defensive moments in games gone by but nothing at all tonight. Tanev again had some great puck battle wins and sticks in lanes. 7) Markstrom was solid again but didn't have to win the game for once. The Bruins really didn't generate much but when they did, with a couple of nice cross-ice passes, Markstrom made some lovely lateral saves. ... 58 minutes ago, Beer and Hockey said: Great game boys. Loui did us proud 59 minutes ago, AllWeatherFan said: BO with a ton of heart tonight. Took a BIG step as our Captain Nice summary from @DownUnderCanuck. It covered a lot of points I would have covered. I will just add a couple of things and emphasize a couple of things. 1. Note to Jim Benning: Do NOT trade Stecher. He had big game tonight and he has had a good season. For some reason Green is not high on Stecher and he always has to work his way up the line-up. But when he moved up to the first pairing with Edler, the team improved and he was solid. The Hughes/Tanev pairing has taken over as #1 pairing, but Stecher is still playing well in the top 4. It would be a mistake to mess up the team chemistry by trading away Stecher at the deadline and I doubt if they could replace what he brings to the team. 2. I agree that Fantenberg had a good game. I like his physical game. He was credited with 6 hits tonight. I wanted to be positive about Benn this season, but the Canucks are a much better team with Fantenberg in there instead. He is faster and more physical than Benn. 3. Speaking of 6 hits, the other guy credited with 6 hits tonight was Motte. With Motte and Fentenberg in the line-up the Canucks play a much higher energy game. And Motte had a nice assist on Stecher's goal. 4. The other guy I want to mention is Horvat. First, the line of Loui, Horvat and Pearson was matched up against the top-rated line in the NHL (the Bergeron line). And, as they did during the hot streak, they played great defensive hockey and great offensive hockey, outplaying that line at both ends of the ice. Horvat had a goal, but he could have had a couple more. And Pearson and Ericksson both scored as well. And Congratulations to Bo on the Gordie Howe hat trick. And Bo was 10-2 in the circle. 5. I don't want to ignore the obvious. Hughes just gets better and better and improved his chances of winning the Calder tonight. A lot of the media guys who vote on the trophy will have seen tonight's game and it didn't hurt to have the NHIC guys talking about him winning the Calder. And it was nice to see Toffoli get a couple of goals. He did well to be in the right place at at the right time and obviously has a very good shot, But Miller was the guy who did the hard work on those plays and he had another great game. 6. Obviously a great win and the highlight of the season so far. But, Boston was playing the second of back-to-backs on a tough road trip. And the Canucks did get a few fortunate bounces. Also, Boston did have a push in the first part of the third period and ultimately outshot the Canucks. However, Boston was throwing everything they could at the net. In terms of high danger chances, the Canucks crushed Boston 17-6 and were by far the better team tonight. 7. I hope it is possible to take this intensity forward. This was an emotional game for the team and there is always a worry that they come out flat in the next game. But I don't think that will happen and I expect a good road trip.

Crabcakes Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 3 minutes ago, Elias Pettersson said: Quinn is better than Rasmus Dahlin. Much better... I think that part of this is the chemistry and culture that the Canucks have. Benning really doesn't want to have another "Black Hole" year as he calls them and he's pushing for the playoffs. Buffalo has missed the playoffs 8 seasons in a row and it has become normal. It's really hard to break out of that. I think that this is one of the points that was lost on Linden. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
