[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Winnipeg Jets | Jan. 14, 2020
Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
One thing I noticed during the game last night that I thought was cool. At the start of the third period Travis Green was going individually to each young player on the bench and whispering something in there ear. I think it’s awesome that our coach takes such a personal approach to the team. -

Ah well, that’s how it goes in the NHL sometimes. Some teams just have your number. But just like in 2005 ish-2012 canucks are going to get better and better and these teams that had our number won’t anymore. It’s fun to watch teams overcome that and I fully expect it from this core and this team. That being said it’s only 2-0, this game is still very winnable. -

I thought after the first 2 minutes canucks actually played a very good period -
[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Minnesota Wild | Jan. 12, 2020
Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I like your optimism but I think it’s still too early to say that, 1 and a half years of stellar play isn’t enough time to make that statement. He’s amazing alright but hasn’t earned being called the best in canucks history yet. -

Then Kassian should probably keep his head up, what’s the difference between this and any other hit where a player gets caught with his head down? I’ve seen Canucks players make big hits by catching players with their heads down and everyone on here loves it. This is only getting so much hate because it’s tkachuk lol -

Why are people saying that was charging/boarding/dirty? It was a clean shoulder to shoulder hit. Watch the video the initial point of contact and brunt of the hit was Kassians shoulder. It also wasn’t boarding as Kassian hardly even touched the boards and hit the ice after the hit. I get that a ton of people don’t like tkachuk but that doesn’t make it a dirty hit. -

Don’t care about the score, just the 2 points. An Arizona loss + Canucks win will put them tied for 2nd while having games at hand with every team in the pacific not counting the irrelevant Anaheim. Hard to not feel like every game is a must win at the moment. GCG! -

I agree, Broser had a great game. Step one : shot more Step two : Deference + move more fast Step three : Profit. Haha I kid, good points Rabbit they had a great game. -

Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
What? We’re tied for second place in the entire western conference with 148 GF... we’ve scored 5+ goals in 17 out of 45 games. I’d say a good chunk of the games we’ve won have been because of our ability to score goals rather than goaltending. That being said markstrom has been awesome this year but give credit where credit is due. The team can score and wins a lot of games purely because of that.. -

Try 18 full seasons of managing an entire franchise in NHL 15-20 there buster. I vote CptCanuck16 as new head coach. -

He has done that, watch the vegas interview after they got whooped by them. But he doesn’t need to do it after every single bad game. Getting up in the podium every loss and just pin pointing what they did poorly isn’t making a “commitment to improve” That can be handled behind closed doors and in practice between the coaches and players. Not handled with the vultures that are canucks media. -

Give it a rest. Would you rather him publicly shame the team? How would that help? All it would do is create animosity between him and the players. A team is not just made of skaters. A team is made of staff, coaches, GM’s, and players. And they all have to have each others backs, not turn against each other after a few bad games. If you start doing that it creates a toxic environment that no one wants to be a part of. -
[PGT] Vancouver Canucks at Florida Panthers | Jan. 09, 2020
Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
I agree that they are past the rebuilding phase, but they still aren’t going cup or bust style like Calgary and a lot of other teams making big pushes do. They are still accumulating great prospects every year and building for the future so they aren’t really going all in. Like you said with the UFA’s most of them are on fairly short term deals because they are place holders until more of the prospects are ready to make the jump. I agree with what you said I just think the narrative that Canucks are going all in just to make a wild card spot is ridiculous. Edit: oops this was a reply to you Alf. -

I don’t really understand how people can consider trading one 1st round pick for an established 26 year old 1st line NHLer is going all in... -

Petey40 replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Canucks Talk
Yes, some of the same problems. Not all. PP was a problem, it isn’t anymore. Scoring was a problem, it isn’t anymore. Scoring 1st was a problem, it is still something to work on but hey they just scored 1st 9 games straight. Offense from D was a problem, that is something that has significantly improved. Goaltending was a big question mark but it isn’t anymore. -

Holy hell guys, chill. This is the only fan base in the NHL that can have a 7 game winning streak then lose two and call for everyone’s head. 4 points out of 1st with 2 games at hand, 4 points out of 2nd with 3 games at hand. And yes before you say the same old spiel, I understand you have to win those games for that to matter but these teams ahead of us also aren’t winning those games. At the start of the season there were very few fans expecting us to be this close in the hunt for FIRST in the division with 38 games remaining. Stop overreacting, enjoy the wins and take the good with the bad. -
Is it too much to ask that we go 41-0-0 for the rest of the season?

I don’t know about that, you can’t create something if you don’t have the tools to do it. Last year we had Pouliot Hutton granlund and Goldobin on the PP. This year we’ve added Hughes Pearson Gaudette JT Miller and Virtanen. It goes without saying that Hughes will make the PP better but it also goes without saying the personnel we had on the PP the past few years weren’t up to NHL standards. You can’t make players have the skill to put the puck in the net with strategies.

Hell yeah, it’s an awesome show
