nice save by varlamov

The Sedins just ran circles around Jensen on that shift

I like that! I just wanted winnepeg to get at least a point.. hopefully they can get the dub

spoke too soon

I am one of those that actually believe in Gillis and I think he has a plan. But, if he is to get canned what do you guys think of Stan Smyl taking over? I don't think Linden has any interest, and I don't think Nazzy is the right fit quite yet. Maybe they promote Laurence Gilman

Hopefully we can ride that line up for 5 more games on our way to a 7th overall pick

I liked the interview. I think Gilly is basically saying if you're going to fire me, then fire me. If not, then I am going to run this team how I want to without any ownership interference. Glad to see him want to go back to the style that made us successful, however without players like Erhoff and Torres it is easier said than it is done. Hopefully Torts has what it takes to adjust as well.

I think Subban is a stretch. What realistic proposal would land Subban, considering his status/situation? Would you be willing to give that up?

Drunk + at a bar = CDC... What bar you in? So I know to avoid it at all cost if looking for a good time.

Any word on Henrik?

Ya I get that we have to test him and I am all for it, but it is about to become borderline ridiculous. Im not sure exactly how many games in a row Lack has played but I think it is around 15. For him to do that in the regular season would give Markstrom or whoever our backup next year is 5 games in a season and Lack 77, which wont accomplish anything. Yes I know that wouldn't happen over 82 games but that is what the projection would be. I think Marky Mark has to get a start soon.

What I don't understand is why Lack is playing until we are "mathematically eliminated." Even IF we make the playoffs, which btw is a BIG IF, by the time we get there Lack would have played like what, 25 straight games? It is $#*@&!@* ludacris to think that any sort of playoff success is possible with lack hitting the 30 games in a row mark during the 1st round. I just don't see how the management or coaching staff can justify playing him for this long hoping to squeak into the playoffs. Markstrom needs to get some games, not for us to see him play, or for him to get some starts, but to at least rest Lack. I just don't understand anymore... And Lack will play in our 2 back to backs coming up in all likelihood I understand the owners want the $$$ from the playoffs, but at the cost of jeopardizing the health of one of this teams vital pieces going forward? Every thing just seems all too short sighted to me

kassian with ANOTHER set up. Sound like a broken record yet?

Kassian with another nice pass

Completely agree. I was a little upset when I heard he was playing. He does more harm than good being out there.

Once upon a time in 2013

oh geez

that puts a damper on the mood

and apparently heavy, smyl could hardly hold the thing! It probably weighs close to 40lbs

^^ You would hope that the coach is the one that makes the line combinations...

Man I hope neither one of Daniel or Kesler come back early to play the Sabres..

What could have been... I am over it and fine with the trade but Shinkaruk-Hodgson-Jensen would have been one hell of a line!

No Horvat?

Lol tells it like it is, I like it

Good one.. I am not sure whether that was a shot at my intelligence? I actually consider myself to be quite literate; I don't get bothered or see it necessary to go out of my way to correct something so minor on an INFORMAL message board. I am here to talk about the Vancouver Canucks, not to write an academic paper. Which for your information I have written plenty of; I will be the first in my family to graduate with a university degree in about 5 weeks time and off to do a professional masters degree in a year. I am not here to insult the intelligence of others over a keyboard.
