  1. 4-2 Canucks Scorevat , Shotgun, Myers, and Motte on the score sheet Eriksson kept off the score sheet for 9 games straight 2nd best +/- in the NHL right now! GCG!
  2. its not really a hate for Leivo, but if someone comes out of the lineup right now, he would be the obvious choice. the 4th line has chemistry and playing a perfect role that Green wants, 1st line set right now, so now we look at the middle 6 Sutter is still our top pk , defensive center, Virtanen's play is improving every game as he's a pain in #@s to play against, Pearson , all though hasnt produced lately is still a staple on bo's line. Since they're 5-1 over the past 6 with a crap sched this weekend I wouldn't pull anyone just yet, and see how Detroit goes.
  3. They could take the gas off , but a win for Quinn who will get his flow against the BRO.. would mean a lot to the team so I think they'll come out pretty strong.
  4. keeping the media at bay.... oh my... Bo hasn't scored yet!- check Ferland hasn't scored yet!- check Is Demko ready for this? - check Maybe Leivo should be scratched - check
  5. Great thing about our lineup right now is we're built to handle teams like St Louis. PUSH BACK 3-2 Canucks win because we can!
  6. What a sound game. Nothing against Jake but having Motte on that 4th , gave Detroit nightmares. Their like a mad hornets nest just buzzing from every angle! Onward to a real challenge and hopefully a statement game in St Louis!
  7. Hughes agrees... he will do some kind of "hughesy death stare" to shut that nickname down shortly.:)
  8. Yeah, Willie was my favorite Canuck in his days here... passed up the 22,33,17 jerseys for a #8 because the guy commanded respect, was one the smartest D men we've ever had with that 8' long stick of his, and tough as nails. whats not to love about him! The hit on Toews when we were getting pushed around was one a many highlites He would be a member of ROH if we didn't let him escape to win a couple cups in LA
  9. also a leader who has one gear for the regular season called 110% , and another for the playoffs, 125% I think Bo can be that player for us.. much like Linden did throughout his career.
  10. Could have lost him on the wire anyway, but sad to see a great leader and horvat style work ethic for Utica and Canucks go. hopefully a forward trade coming soon to release the logjam there as well...
  11. he was on a line with Granny and Gagner for awhile, and they looked pretty good. Matching him with evenly skilled forwards helps his play TBH
  12. Was shocked $6M Eriksson was actually Scratched last year in game 70.... not so much this year. He's a smart PK,defensive player but the term " hard to play against" isn't part of his M.O. so time to move on. At some point this season , sending him to Utica in favour of Baer wouldn't be surprising once Baer gets 5 or so games under his belt. Really routing for Jake- Gaud- Leivo to sir up some S#$t! Jake did assist on Gaud's first goal last year so maybe they do have "chemistry" right?
  13. A win here would go along way, so hoping for OT, and all those lame fans can experience our Hughes, Petey , Bo magic for the winning goal
  14. Hughes looked great last even though he lost a couple assignments. its early but can see him just gaining confidence playing 18-20 minutes a night and being a serious threat for the Calder. others positives , our whole "2nd line" new D additions, Marky, Beagle, Eddie. This was the first game for the top line together and they had some moments so its worth keeping them together IMO Our bottom 6 looked discombobulated out there. I believe we have the players but not the chemistry. Hate to say it but Motte on that 4th line would have really helped. JV's confidence is pretty low or else something else is going on behind the scenes there. Not sure if sitting him out is the right move, so sitting Schaller and trying something like these lines for bottom 6 Leivo- Gaudette- Virtanen- fast aggressive Eriksson- Beagle -Sutter- shutdown
  15. Wouldn't be surprised to see him next game, and jake out. He looks lost out there.
  16. that man needs a 'C' on his jersey! Lets get off to right start! 4-2 canucks
  17. what about Brock.... mature ,calm demeanor, top 3 player, speaks well and has the flow to back him up.:)
  18. haha, there's only one Sheriff in town and his name is.... (drum roll....)
  19. practice ...Gaudette rotating in for Virtanen on the 3rd line. #Canucks Jake can't assume because our RW depth is weak that he stays in the lineup... #greenmotivatingjake
  20. Eriksson should be with Sutter/ JV was he is a better playmaker Leivo can grind it out on the 4th line. Hopefully Gaudette gets his chance when one of the bottom 6 hops into Greeners doghouse
