[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Chicago Blackhawks | Mar. 26, 2023
Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I don’t think that’s true at all, the only game Demko has had to steal since he came back was the LA game. The rest Canucks have outplayed the other team. Sure he needs to play good but without good goaltending any team would be bad. Boston wouldn’t be nearly as good as they are without Ullmark and Swayman both having vezina caliber seasons. Defensively Canucks haven’t relied on their goaltender nearly as much under Tochett as they did under Bruce. Better systems. That being said, obviously we’re still not there yet. Need a couple more top 4 dmen -
[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Anaheim Ducks | Mar. 19, 2023

I hope next year we start with an easy schedule and end with a really difficult one. That way our crushing disappointment will be in the spring time instead of middle of winter! -
[PGT] Dallas Stars at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 14, 2023

It’s impossible. If Winnipeg only wins 7 of their last 14 games that puts them at 93 points. If Canucks win all of their last 16 games of the season they’d finish with 95 points. -

Maybe, maybe not. The bigger difference this year is the management made and is still making changes to the roster. That didn’t happen last year and even under Bruce they were meh defensively. They’ve looked much better defensively and structurally under Tochett. With more changes to come this off season it’s starting to look like they could be building something. -
[PGT] Toronto Maple Leafs at Vancouver Canucks | Mar. 04, 2023

Man that short handed goal and his OT goal against Blues is really showcasing Petterssons speed. He definitely worked on his skating cause he’s insanely fast now and getting stronger on his skates. Turning into a bonafide superstar. Love it -

I bet we recoup that 1st from Pittsburgh and it ends up being a higher pick than isles -

Doesn’t fit into the age group they’ve been trading for this year. Makes no sense -
[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at St. Louis Blues | Feb. 23, 2023

Lol Oof that’s a bad take. This guy just decided this year to win the rocket Richard because why not (obviously he hasn’t yet but there’s a strong chance he does) and you think he would be in trouble if he got less power plays? No chance. He would adjust and continue to dominate. Mcdavid is unbelievably talented -
It’s the style, close support from the forward on breakouts with speed. It makes teams look and seem so much faster than when forwards are up near the opposing blue line flat footed.

As long as it’s a clean hit, don’t want to see anyone get injured.

I actually think he knows what he has in the star players, they need to know what they have in a lot of other players before the deadline and seasons end.
-
I think Tochett likes to keep his stars fresh for the last 30 minutes of the game so he’ll play them less in the beginning. Then more in the last half. But at the same time I have no idea what I’m talking about

[Rumour] Canucks getting calls on Thatcher Demko

Maybe it wasn’t there? No chance they were getting Dobson. So maybe they got the best deal that was on the table. Not like contending teams are gonna trade their top 4 young Dmen. It’s rare for teams to trade D men especially young RHD for a forward on an expiring contract. I know what Canucks fans expected but most of the time their expectations are irrational. I know Benning isn’t the GM lol I was making fun of this fan base and using an example. There was talk of Brandon Carlo for Bo, would that have been preferred in your eyes? Cause he’s one hit away from retiring due to concussions.
