  1. Nucks don’t have an answer to the physical play. yes they throw hits but not even close to the caliber hits Vegas throws. Pretty clear our bottom six needs to be bigger faster and actually Be able hit.
  2. Wow postponing these games sure changed a lot and the awareness of so called social injustice is so much better now. the league cares so much for the “cause” but they won’t give up any of the advertising slots for awareness and education. now the looming prospect of Multiple back to backs. And the league would have you believe it cares about the players Heath and safety. Lol. Hope the boys can put on a good show For us tonight.
  3. Games postponed. guess I’m gonna watch something else. Not sure what this accomplishes or what these leagues expect to happen. Or the end game with this mandate. This Doesn’t do anything for awareness or educate anyone on the issues at hand. see you all Saturday unless they decide to postpone it because of pressure from outside sources. The NHL could have done more than take the easy way. They could have had information and education Running in place of adds and Intermissions and been leaders with positive messages promoting equality to its audience. Instead cave in to social pressure in this do nothing move.
  4. So they postpone the game the. ForCe the players to play multiple back to backs In the playoffs lol so much for caring about the well being of these athletes. And that’s only if there isn’t another injustice before Saturday. What if the lpga has a beef with inequality I guess the Nhl should Protest that. and then there’s that guy that doesn’t get treated fairly down the street best sit that one out too. Nhl sending the wrong message stand up and speak out be heard. taking a night off isn’t going to change anything except the channel.
  5. More of a message could reach more people with game being played 3+hr With a captive audience. Instead of ED commercials information and understanding for the BLM LGBT and others messages would be far more effective at reaching more people than Simply sitting out. leagues are setting themselves up by setting This precedent.
  6. Is this setting the standard for the future. Every time an injustice is done to bring awareness we take a day off. more awareness could reach more people If the leagues used some if there Adverting to promote awareness to the issues at hand. Young minds that will shape the future would see the messages of equality for all.And see the players they look up to speaking up not sitting out. i don’t see any value in postponing games equates to Walmart workers saying we’re not working today to support BLM and injustice. the message gets lost and manipulated And I think it actually sets a bad precedent for our youth. And to really fuel the fire I think the NHL is just caving to media/social pressure more that them actually believing this is the right coarse of action. If they thought it was the right thing to do they (The players) would have postponed last nights games....
  7. While I support the movement and praise The athletes for speaking out and bring more awareness to this cause. I don’t see the value in not playing these games nba,Mla,nfl,nhl. The players can speak out and use there fame/influence as a platform anytime/all the time. I’m not against them missing games if they truly believe this is the best way to get action and awareness but for me i don’t see the value in it. Running more awareness addS during the games and promoting a change to the system with nhl nba nfl players during games would reach a far wider audience than Simply were not playing and theN the channel gets changed. how many here watched all the interviews by the nba players?
  8. He’s been horrible in these playoffs he’s been horrible in the The regular season. the team is better without him. he’s most effective when he’s in the pressbox. The cost to get rid of him and the cost of keeping him are both very high. we will lose good young players because of his contract. we would have to give up pick and or players to get rid of him. Hope they can figure something out, at the very least send him to Utica to make a roster spot for someone that will play with a bit of heart and like they actually want to be here.
  9. The cross checkIng penalty edler took was garbage . The wild the blues and Vegas have been doing the same to petey and hughes with no calls. green should request the rule book that pertains to the canucks since it’s been made very clear by Sutherland that is not the same as the opposition. the phantom call on boeser was just the icing. We need Peter Griffin to do a “it grinds my gears” nhl officiating Bit. I’m glad are guys are resorting to flopping like Vegas. burkie Bieksa Stewart make me enjoy the intermissions again its to bad Ron’s still there.
  10. I can’t skate but I might be better than LE atleast I’d be in the way when I was falling down.
  11. Hope toffoli can go tomorrow so LE can go back where he belongs , the press box
  12. The ufas signings over the past 4 years have been total busts. Myers the only exception. (Most of the time)
  13. Yup, Ageee but we arent that fast And the refs don’t call anything against them.
