TBH it's not the toughest road trip. If we don't come back at .500 or over I'll be hugely disappointed

[GDT/PGT] Preseason Oilers @ Canucks / Oct. 9 / 6:00 PM Rogers Arena

It's okay it's just pre-season. Just a way of crushing our hopes and dreams for another year...... -

Where was all that effort for the previous 57 minutes? The scoreline flatters them. -

Di Guiseppe from Highmore. Nobody could have predicted that. -

We're losing every puck battle. The coilers are coasting to victory without even having to break sweat, I'm starting to feel nervous for the upcoming season. -

The shot counter seems to have given up -

They've put their 3rd string goalie in and we haven't even troubled him yet. There needs to be a serious increase in effort in the third. -

That's the problem with Hughes, tries to do too much. Could be another -24 this season. -
We're getting lots of shots but very few grade A chances. Grubauer is on his game, but sadly Demko isn't tonight. We've had lots of PP's but they haven't looked like scoring, that's why we need Chaisson in the lineup. He does one thing that nobody else seems to want to do - get in front of the goalie and block his sight lines, right now PG's stopping everything he sees.

Zadorov Shares Some Insight Into Nate MacKinnon
Taphouse Canuck replied to -DLC-'s topic in General Hockey Discussion
I don't think the comparison to Jordan is very fair. The top NBA players can average 35 to 40 minutes of court time (out of 48). Basically one man can win the game for the team if he is good enough. Jordan was one, Shaq., Kobe, LeBron all won wherever they played. Maybe if Mackinnon could skate for 45 minutes each game he might be winning stuff too. -
You've done the right thing Micheal. Much as I would love to see you in a Canucks uniform again you have other priorities. I've had a concussion and it is scary, constant headaches, unable to sleep, unable to remember stuff. Go live the rest of your life with your lovely family.

Remaining Moves to Complete Roster for 21-22 Season
Taphouse Canuck replied to nuckfanfromafrica's topic in Canucks Talk
Yes exactly. Right now there is not much to fear for any offensive player coming into our D zone. We need to change that so that the opposition know they are going to have to pay a price. Edler always played a hard game but he's way too slow now. Hamonic is feisty, but we need at least one more big body -
What Lessons Have The Habs Taught Us?
Taphouse Canuck replied to Nuxfanabroad's topic in Canucks Talk
We have mostly small mobile defencemen and no discernible defensive structure. Has anyone else seen a team with those qualities in the playoffs? -
Wow, Varlarmov is the first star of this game by a country mile. Stopped so many of the Bruins grade A chances. Now his team could sneak it in OT. In my fantasy ending I see Matt Martin hitting Brad Marchand who smashes the glass with his face and is awarded a game misconduct for wilful damage to the arena. Tukka Rask then accidentally turns the puck into his own net.
