  1. Scheifele went looking for that hit regardless of the fact that the puck was in the net. I don't know what is worse: seeing that cheap shot on a defenseless player or listening to the Winniipeg commentators trying to justify it. We'll see what the NHL make of it, but if it was up to me he wouldn't play again this season.
  2. I presume the ridiculous start time is so that they can put this season behind them as soon as possible.
  3. Eventually the NHL will introduce a game misconduct penalty for anyone daring to touch McDavid.
  4. Miller with 3 more points....... ..........for the Oilers. One decent period and then press the self-destruct button.
  5. I'm expecting more of the same tonight, defensive chaos, missed passes, and very few shots on net. But I'm excited to see that line with What's-His-Name, Thingamijig, and A.N. Other.
  6. Realistically we were out of it at the end of February, but we dared to dream Just shows. dreaming doesn't always work.
  7. Please don't give us a power play, it's embarrassing. !7 shots in 2 and a half periods, you would think you could get more just by accident.
  8. I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that if we don't get more shots on goal in the first 2 periods, and get some traffic in front of net, then we will lose again. On Monday we finally started peppering the net in the third period, but by that time Hogberg had his eye in.
  9. Yeah, I'm going to wait till 3.00. That's when happy hour starts.
  10. Pretty sure you're right, as the Leaves' game has moved to 8.00 pm. EST thus ensuring that both games can be watched in the centre of the universe, but not on the west coast.
  11. Highmore-Miller-Hoglander looks like a really high energy line to me. Hogs has played well all year without getting the return he deserved. Now he seems to be translating chances into goals, so I'm hoping that will continue. Go Canucks!
  12. If they can bring the energy and determination that they showed in the 2 games against Tronno then they will see off the Sens, Could be fast and loose, I going with 5-3 Nucks.
  13. They keep telling us that it's all abut special teams, and he is our empty net specialist so why not?
  14. I'm trying to think of a reason why Calgary could have let Rittich go. Anyone?
  15. I see the start time has been changed to accommodate the centre of the universe. Half of Vancouver will be stuck on a bridge somewhere at 6 pm.
  16. My main concern about tonight's game is the risk of injury. When athletes haven't had a chance to practice and they go into a competitive game against a good team they are going to play hard. The last thing we need in this write-off season is a LTI.
  17. As a Rockets fan I'm always happy to see an alumni in Canucks colours. If nothing else he will bring some toughness at the back.
