High and Inside

I would have been happy if he publicly ripped some of the veterans on this team. I told people 2 years ago that Sutters time was up and I got ridiculed for it. Said the same thing about Roussel before he came back this year.

Is greens post game interview available? I gotta hear this.

As bad as this road trip has been the Canucks gotta find there game going back home. All is not lost, you can’t change the past but you can start doing something moving forward. Beat Arizona Wednesday.

Yup your pretty correct there, I think if we go 9-9 we would get in but we should play better then that and hopefully get a division seed. Home ice I think really helps our young guys like EP and QH as they can get more favourable matchups. Like you’ve said we haven’t been a good road team all year but we always seem to come out of it in the end. Hope we play well tomorrow in Colombus and then be ready for the home game against Arizona.

It’s so hard to figure out how things will shake out. Every team in the pacific seems to have issues at any given time. I think the only sure bet is Vegas and I think they definitely win the division hands down. I hope we play well in our divisional matchups the rest of the season and get one of the division seeds.

It sucks that we lost back to back winnable games but everybody does need to relax as we’re still in a decent position. Hopefully we can get a win tomorrow and make this a 500 road trip and once we get home we should be able to put some wins together again. The league is pretty competitive and just about every team is going to go through these we little lulls especially on cross country road trips. Pittsburgh dropped one to Anaheim and is about to do the same against San Jose. Will get back on track.

Definitely needs to make a big save. Demko will be good in time but not right now. He made some great saves but still consistently lets the team down with an untimely goal.

I think it would be better for jets to lose. We have lots of games on hand on the jets and yotes and as long we stay ahead of those teams we can make playoffs.

I wanted that guy gone 2 years ago. Roussel Sutter and Erickson have packed it in.

We’re 11-7-2 with Thatcher in net this year. Marky has been great but weve won games with Demko too.

If the Canucks go 500 the rest of the way the Jets and Yotes will have to go like 12-4 in there remaining games. 10-9 for us the rest of the way we’re easily in.

Hahaha a two goal game with a whole period left?

Can we please make LE a healthy scratch and slide Zack Macewan in? Louis should not be on on the second line.

Great game by Demmer tonight. I’m not the least bit concerned about Markys injury. Demko is more then capable.. his numbers are just a tick below Marky and actually has a better win loss record in games he’s played. Demmer has played enough professional hockey that he can carry the load for 3-4 weeks. I just want Marky healthy for playoffs.

Carolina gave up a 1st for a player with similar numbers and cap as Myers. Maybe we should trade Myers at the draft and that would solve a lot of our problems.

One Louis is enough we didn’t need to acquire another one! This guys numbers this year are pretty awful. I do have a lot of faith in Thatcher however as his numbers are only a tick behind Markstroms and it’s not always easy being a backup and not being in a normal rythym.

Let’s not waste our time with Barrie. We don’t need a PP specialist defenceman and that’s about all he’s good for. If Kyle Dubas calls it’s no thanks!

I really hope we keep Stetch for the remainder of the season. A heart and soul player and he showed tonight that he really wants to be here. I think it’s fair to let this group go into the playoffs together. I’ve met the guy personally and I know his love for Vancouver. Lot of respect for him.

Matt Grzelcyk with another dirty hit. Hit Reider late and injured him. That guy doesn’t learn and needs to be suspended.

We need to pickup a D men. We were pretty good with Oscar in the lineup. Benn is totally lost. First goal was on him tonight.

They are actually playing pretty good. The second goal by the Wild was pretty flukey

This! I totally agree man. Who wants to be like the Oilers for the next 10 years. After 4 years out I want in the playoffs end of story. After this deal is done we have lots of prospects left. Madden is a tiny center that has no guarantees of turning into anything. Look at Johnny Hockey great college player that scores a lot in the regular season and come playoff time is invisible. Our forward group now would grind that flames team into smitherines.

I would argue the window to win is open as one team in the wide open pacific division will likely make the final 4. Plus after 4 years out of the playoffs I just want this team to get in so we can watch playoff hockey. Plus we got at least 3 other good forward prospects. There is no way Pod Hog Lind and Madden could all be on this team so someone had to be moved and today the opportunity was there to make the team better. I also think there is the opportunity to resign Toffoli to a reasonable cap number going forward. We need to move some of the bottom 6 out though.

I think this is a great trade. I really like Tofolli and this a good year to take a run at it. The chemistry should be good with Pearson and Horvat. We still have Hog Pod and Lind at forward in our system.

If a teams blows the doors off with an offer for Tanev we have to do it no if ands or buts. I wouldn’t deal Markstrom though as we can still make playoffs with him and the market probably wouldn’t be very big.
