  1. Love your optimism. Equal opportunity for both teams when the puck drops team knows what they need to do to win.
  2. Unfortunate situation for Ferland. I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking it so what does this do for the canucks future cap situation if he is ltir for the rest of the contract?
  3. He’s tracking to be a more all around player people really sleep on defensive ability which is driven by his hockey sense at both ends of the rink. He’s willing to get nasty when he needs to more than any of our younger players.
  4. Glad we are getting pp tonight! After game 1 feels like some of these are makeup calls. Just be consistent nhl.
  5. Toffoli nicked up would make some sense didn’t look like himself out there Sunday
  6. We saw this look a few times later it looked good to me and could try a few shifts to spark the team
  7. We will swap in 1-2 fresh forwards if you have 15 nhl forwards there will be some accountability leveled out for zero goals scored
  8. Hate to break it to you those guys are all 7-8 spare types one or both of juolevi or Rathbone will be permanent roster members
  9. If the wild are going to keep on collapsing low we need to be patient and play a possession game. Control the puck make it a low event game. Force them to come to us. Our point men were getting lots of shots if they are selling out on shot blocks utilize some fakes and open up the ice.
  10. Our bottom 6 was getting hemmed in pretty much all night. I know the defense was playing conservative but occasionally you need to spring some clean passes leaving your own end.
  11. Gaudette brings the compete he will be in the their
  12. So if olli at 6 foot 3 is average what does that make our d men who are around 5 foot 10?
  13. Lol that’s what I was thinking! If it were A tv broadcast You would add subtitles even though it’s in English
  14. If it is that big of a problem roll J.T. Miller to 3C. It’s not so they are loading up the top two lines and letting gaudette develop.
  15. Rathbone looks really good but juolevi has been playing against pros the last 3 years where as Rathbone has been playing against good amateur competition where maybe 5 percent will go on to play pro. Hopefully they both see nhl time next year. If Olli is healthy I bet on him.
  16. I’m sure some of Chaykas ideas might prove innovative over time but from the outside it seemed like they went whole hog on analytics rather than blending it with some of the intangible parts of the game that lead to winning.
  17. Wouldn’t it be the most Canuck thing ever to win the cup when we can’t properly celebrate it. Glad the poll results reflect how we all feel Cup any way we can get it!
  18. Also keep in mind every team will free up some cap space following next season with the expansion draft.
  19. It’s not equitable. It provides relief to some of the teams with recapture issues but not all. If they are going to give say the predators the ability to spread out Weber’s penalty over time the amendment should have allowed all teams with recapture to spread the penalty over a longer timeframe.
  20. It’s a ridiculous rule and the proposed amendments are equally stupid. there were a lot of backdiving contracts and my long term bet is when more start entering recapture they turf the recapture completely. Drance mskes a good point in that it is bad it is bad for players as a whole as the potential pool of money league wide will go down the more recapture hits out there.
