  1. I don’t understand why the hell so many people are thinking this guy is the next Player Name. Sure he whiffs on a few shots, but he’s still able to create offensive chances (for example the first goal tonight) while also being great defensively.
  2. I've seen Russian reporters comment their forwards could play goalie. I don't put too much stock into foreign sources because they always believe their countrymen are the best players who can play every role on every team.
  3. You know what the craziest thing is? Despite us having the worst first 25 games to start a season in Canucks history, if we sweep next week, we are right back to .500. Maybe a tall order, but we get a tired Carolina team, a bottom feeder Blue Jackets team, a divisional team who we should beat in the Sharks, and the Laffs. It doesn't look that impossible.
  4. I think the Canucks were sitting at a 1% chance to make the playoffs before we went on this run of 5 wins in our last 6. Now we're sitting at 13% according to moneypuck. By next week we could be in the playoff picture if we sweep next week as well. I'm super pumped. I'm more invested in the Canucks now than at any point during this season.
  5. Only reason Dahlin is still #1 is cause of his draft pedigree. Svech and Hughes are clearly #1 and 2. Only reason Svech is probably number 1 over Hughes is because of Hughes bad year last year while Svech has been consistent. Hughes has a better PPG than Svechnikov as a defenseman.
  6. Damn I wish we had a reporter here in Vancouver like Michael Russo. Seems like a genuinely nice guy, pretty knowledgeable of a team outside his market with a good relationship with the guys on the team he follows. We don't really have a guy like that in Vancouver. Drance especially is a hack and Paterson is barely better. Wyatt Arndt and Daniel Wagner are good but they don't really have an inside scoop on the team.
  7. I think by that they meant 9th most by a forward. Therefore, McDavid and Drai only count as one each. Mackinnon is another consistently high as well.
  8. Myers was stellar out there tonight possibly our best defenseman. Did he have a couple gaffes? Yes he did, but he made up for them in a big way tonight. He was up in the play driving offense a lot and he also broke up many potential chances the Jets had as well.
  9. So JT Miller set a career high in ice time last game with just over 21 minutes. He logged 23:17 tonight plus a shootout attempt which is only below Hughes and Myers. His 21 minutes was already 9th highest logged for a forward in a game this season. I wonder where his 23:17 ranks him.
  10. This game was about as even as it could be. Although, 5 on 5 we have the stats in our favour.
  11. We were the better team and got the better result. It’s about &^@#ing time let’s go!
  12. Myers has been super involved tonight, a couple negatives, but mostly positive. We got vintage Myers going right now
