  1. That might be or be close to a league record.
  2. Hasn't Petterssen already broken records? 10 goals in his first 10 games sure hasn't been done by a Canuck before.
  3. I went back and looked. EP has 2 goals and 1 assist in those 4 goals when the Canucks scored first.
  4. so EP opens the scoring again. Canucks have only scored first 4 times this season according to play by play. How many were EP goals?
  5. I don't understand how you see sending him down as rushing him. I see it as exploring what level he should be at and seeing how much time he needs.
  6. Wouldn't be the worst idea to send Gads and Palmu down the K zoo for a little stint to get the mojo going again. Gardiner got 5 points in 6 games down there. Gaud for 4 in 4 in his AHL stint. The shock of getting sent down seems to have done wonders for Gaunce. Etc. Neither of the pair have a point and they are great friends. An adventure might be just what the doctor ordered.
  7. Fox and Rathbone seem to play pretty well together. Fox would sure be a nice add here if Jack can make a new bestie.
  8. I agree completely. Wonder how the kid will fill out over the next couple years? 152 lbs is light compared to even EP. Lol. But hopefully he fills out to 5'11" 190 like his dad, that will be more than enough.
  9. Lots of time for Mac to get a sniff this year. He needs to play and develop and be consistent. And his time will come. He has taken a step forward this year and that is good and I am sure not been missed by the brass.

    Brendan Gaunce | C/LW

    Nice to see Gaunce plays a couple solid games and get rewarded on the score sheet. That trip to Utica seems to have pushed the right buttons.
  11. Why does Jasek get so little respect, interest and opportunity? We need to see more Jasek.
  12. Hopefully we see more Jasek. I think he is the most ready to shine of the prospects. Maybe he can show the way to Dahlen and Lind and such.
  13. Just needed an assist for the Gordie Howe hat trick tonight. Bo was pretty damn good.
  14. EP has been that guy on the power play. Got Horvat going with that first goal almost banked in off of Bo's stick. LOL. Bo has said himself how he is motivated by EP.
  15. Basically what I see of Juolevi is the lead d man on Petterssens unit. EP is a play driver and needs smart players to play with. Hughes is the play driver for Horvat/Boeser.
  16. I think we will make default to the beginning of the season usage Gaudette into Petterssens second line spot but that line will default back to sheltered minutes until such time it earns more like Petterssens line did. thus bo and boeser will be line 1. Sutter's line will get the hardest and second most minutes. Granlund line will get defensive usage. Gaudette line will get sheltered usage. Lines may go in a blender a few times. And I think Gaudette is most successful with Leipsic and Virtanen. Speed kills and all three have it.
  17. Thanks to Kushman (and an upvote). Couldn't have said it better. I know I would have challenged Matheson after that hit and I am built like EP and more than twice his age. Why are the fans more passionate than the players paid millions to stick up for their team?
  18. Did you watch the first game of the season against Calgary?
  19. At the same time we need to move out some vets this year to have room for guys next year without having to waive a dozen players (I think we waived something like 8 this year). Realistically we have Juolevi, Hughes, Gaudette, Dahlen, maybe our 2019 first or maybe two or three more young guys ready for the NHL in the next 12 months. Out with the old and in with the new is what I see continuing to happen to this team.
  20. I have been more confused by Jasek (7 pts in 6 regular season ahl games) sitting. You would think he would be in the top 6 every night with those stats and the ability to play either wing. Unsure if he is nursing a minor injury and not just being scratched in a league he has better than ppg numbers.
  21. Hey, when was the last time we had a player tied for first overall in NHL points? When was the last time they weren't Swedish? Lol.
  22. I think Gaudette plays about the same amount of AHL as Hodgson's 52 games. So I would say Hodgson is last.
  23. I see this more as a complaint they let Cassels walk then about Gagner though. The developing defensive center seems to be the missing piece to me.

    I have Owls and Ravens and eagles. Make for some good air fights and lots of chasing. Then a bunch of noisy crows trying to get in on the action. Noisy and annoying sometimes. But entertaining some too.

    hopefully Bo and BB can do that. Everyone else did the scoring last game. But it was nice that each of those guys scored. I absolutely LOVED the EP40 and JV18 goals.
