Rangers rode their hot rookie Russian goaltending duo all year but than turned to 3rd string Lundquist out of nostalgia for the playoffs . They shot themselves in the foot.
I liked seeing the Canucks playing physical, I think the Canucks D were good tonight. I have some major concerns about secondary scoring if Pettersson is going to be Mauled all night. Virtanen deserves a chance to get in. We’ll see what Travis Green can do for adjustments.
Horvat already plays sometimes over 25 minutes a night as a top shut down centre, Miller already plays over 20 minutes a night as the number 1 line, you can’t pile another 6-10 minutes of penalty killing minutes a night on to already overworked players. 3rd and 4th liners have to pick up some quality time or the team can’t run.
I didn’t see a thread so I made one.
good scrimmage game last night,
as camp progresses I feel the excitement building.

Can’t imagine Tanev playing somewhere else, but I think he’s the first cap casualty unless someone miraculously takes a bad contract or two from us .
Eriksson , Sutter, Baertschi, Beagle.
I can see MacEwan getting into this series,especially with Ferland still not healthy. Minnesota’s 3rd line has 2 heavy hitters with Greenway and Foligno, at some point the Canucks will have to address them.
This team Fly’s and scores a lot when their healthy, Wild would have to play physical and trap the hell out of the Canucks.
Canucks will still light them up.
No crowd will hurt Minnesota more.
we got this.
Last time the Canucks played the Wild they were pushed around and had their lunch money stolen. The Canucks need Ferland , Motte, and MacEwan in this series.
