  1. If our PK sucks again, we will have to play cautious all season long and not take any chances that could lead to goals for but could also lead to goals against
  2. OMG this chemistry Haha Shorty in mid season form: "he could’ve ordered a latte before he shot that puck!"
  3. Happy hockey season, everyone! Hope everyone had a terrific summer. I was lucky enough to be in Whistler for a training camp a few observations: - Demko is an absolute beast. He is enormous and looked to be in mid season for him. He did seem to be stretching out his leg a lot though. Hope he is fully healthy - Pods and Kuzmenko already have terrific chemistry - Dakota Joshua is a great addition - So much respect for Connor Garland. He is so small compared to his peers, but he makes something happen every time he’s on the ice and he’s furious with himself every time he doesn’t. - Miller and Boeser looking good. Horvat was less noticeable - Hogs looking good - Rathbone is going to make the team. He has developed well - OEL unnoticeable - Petey looks like he's gained weight in a good way. He is very vocal out there. I was score keeping one of the scrimmages, and he came over to the officials right in front of us and was giving them a piece of his mind for a missed call… In a scrimmage lol. - DeKeyser could be good. exceptional work ethic from Jet Woo. Really hope he makes a move this year in his development. - Great team culture. Miller was the guy who brought the bag over for players to put the pox into at the end of practice, and every player was helping to pick them up. Not just left for the rookies. - Sedins have a very hands on role. They were on the ice and on the bench more than any of the coaches - My mom has a crush on Demko The team is saying all the right things in terms of what their goals are for this year. Let’s hope they can be true to those words can be a successful team this year. Looking forward to enjoying another season with all of you fine people.
  4. In most circumstances I would say I agree, but the fact that Boeser chose to answer the question even though he was given an opportunity not to, to me suggests that he wanted to answer it. He has been very open in the past about his dad‘s health issues and perhaps this was a moment he needed to have to share his journey with the media and the public
  5. Really felt for Brock today. It’s been pretty obvious in all the photos he has been posting of his dad throughout the course of the season that Duke has not been doing well, and we know how close he is to his family, so I’m sure it has been weighing on him all season long. Clearly the team is very closely knit. You could see the obvious emotion on Petey and Hughes as well. Wishing the best for the Boeser family
  6. It's been a pleasure folks. Let's hope for better next season
  7. I hope this is the last "eliminated from playoffs” game we play for a very very very long time
  8. Shame. This fan base deserves better. New management have their work cut out for them
  9. It's not just that we're struggling to score goals. We're struggling to generate chances or even just maintain possession of a puck. Another wasted season. What a shame
