31 Thoughts Podcast with Travis Green
LowerMainLander18 replied to MrCanuck94's topic in Canucks Talk
If we r all good, mannered fans, I would agree with u. I would be furious. But I'm part of the fanbase and I've seen/ experienced things here. So I don't doubt that we r a tough market. I do agree tho that 1 statement from 1 coach does not qualify the statement. But at the same time, 1 statement from 1 fan doesn't exonerate the fanbase either. As for the fanbase here in Van being tougher than the one in Toronto, people can hold their opinions and I take it for what it is. -
Way too early to pack it in. Good teams will start resting their star players towards the end of the season. Bad teams will test us and make us better. Players battled thru all those tough games and travels for the last 4 months to earn a playoffs spot. They don't quit now. Fans don't quit now after battling thru some of the worst spams and horrendous armchair managing in GDT/ PGT for the past 4 months. We have all come too far to quit now. And we r close. I think this is a playoffs team. Pro analysts think we r a playoffs team. On a brighter note, this is a good opportunity for some players to elevate their games and reach that next level. We wanted to reach the playoffs for this kind of experience. This season, it just happened to have started earlier than other years.

PREDICT THE SCORE CONTEST: Coyotes @ Canucks March 4th 2020
LowerMainLander18 replied to goalie13's topic in Canucks Talk
3-2 Nux Yotes Kessel -
Bo's line was struggling with JV there. They can't read off each other. Saw JV out of place so many times in there. Gaud's line was a liability whenever they were on the ice. Big Mac will be a good player. But maybe 4th line role is sufficient for him at the moment. Toffoli looks frustrated in that line. He's not getting enough passes. Bad loss. This one stings.

Bo's line not very good tonight. Pretty bad chemistry. -
PREDICT THE SCORE CONTEST: Canucks @ Leafs February 29th 2020

5-4 Nux JV -
Would be a huge mistake to even think about trading Brock at this point of his career. He missed his first summer training due to back injury. Missed entire training camp in his second summer. Still managed to put up respectable points. A lot of things he does to be effective were overlooked and when he went out of the lineup, I saw how worse of a team we were without him. And if JB has to go deal out a player like Madden to bring in Toffoli to replace Brock, it shows how much value he holds in our team. People shouldnt be so quick to think Brock is expendable at this point. He hasn't even remotely scratched his ceiling yet. I would entrust the decision to JB. But I would be absolutely shocked to see Brock get dealt.

Who are the “magnificent 7” that Benning was referring to?
LowerMainLander18 replied to Patel Bure's topic in Canucks Talk
I think he just said it to extinguish some of the enraged fans. I personally don't buy into that. -
JV plays better when pissed off. That's good.

Good time out and good turn up.

It's good to see the team elevate their game in that kind of game. The team was not soft last night.

JB put it correctly. His style reminds me of Brock's but he's more seasoned. He doesnt let up when he gets the chance to shoot and he doesnt second guess himself. The thing I liked most about his game was his quick decisions. He rarely holds onto the puck and he's very quick to make plays. On his stick and off it goes right away and often, it turns out to be a pretty reliable play. He knows his strengths well. He finds good ice in the Ozone and trusts his linemates to feed him. He's not unreliable defensively either. I know things like that comes as u play more NHL games. And I think Brock will benefit a lot from watching TT play. Sample size is small and TT won't come cheap. But if anything, with this experiment, I think the management has confirmed their belief on who to place in that RW slot in the future.

[GDT] Bruins @ Nucks - Feb 22 2020 - 7pm Pacific - HNIC EDITION
LowerMainLander18 replied to xereau's topic in Canucks Talk
Bo's line is playing pretty exceptionally well tonight so far. All 4 lines r playing well in general too. -
I would be quite happy if we just make the playoffs. Have that experience under our belt. After that, I don't mind a good, decent length of summer of training for these guys. They need it.
