[PGT] Seattle Kraken at Vancouver Canucks | Apr. 26, 2022
Fan since 82 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Would it though? I don't know that we've seen it consistently. I do feel that the players would get used to it and would be more comfortable playing knowing where the lines are. I know that refs aren't perfect and some calls will get missed. I also understand that the game is super fast which would also account for some missed calls. I personally just feel that make up calls can be so unfair because if a team is playing a clean hard game and drawing penalties they shouldn't be penalized for it by having borderline or even phantom calls levied against them to even things up. I've never reffed hockey before so am not trying to say that I 'know' everything because I'm painfully aware of my lack of experience here. I know there are two (or more) camps on this and I'll admit that I do sometimes enjoy watching a game where the whistles have been put away, but we've all seen games where a dirty team can have the advantage in this scenario. -

If games were called properly players would know what a penalty was at all times of the game and all times of the season. I can't stand watching games decided by refs putting their whistles in their pockets and not calling anything or using make up calls to even up the penalties. If refs don't want to be responsible for deciding the outcome of a game then they should call games according to the rulebook. -

Love Stecher! I'm so happy for him that he's still playing in the NHL! -

[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Minnesota Wild | Apr. 21, 2022
Fan since 82 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I think the last two games really show where the team is at. The Ottawa game showed their inexperience. They couldn't lock it down and get the win. They let Ottawa push the pace and they played down to their level. The Minnesota game showed their lack of depth and inability to push back and the team just got handled. There have been some great moments since BB took over, and you can certainly see the potential and the lack. Looking forward to the summer to see what changes are coming, and then of course next season to see where we sit. -

Same could be said if we won 4 more of those games we dropped while Green was coaching. -

[PGT] Arizona Coyotes at Vancouver Canucks | Apr. 14, 2022

They don't have any loyalty to anything other than winning so yes their GM could be sacked! They just don't understand or want to deal with any adversity so rather than fight through and figure it out they'll just slap on a band-aid and hope for the best. -
[Report] Bo Horvat out minimum 2 weeks

Wishful thinking! -
Thought I saw a tweet that he was now day to day and not likely to be available for Dallas game ... looked on Twitter but couldn't find it so maybe it was a nightmare?
