  1. On the cusp of a blow-out, Reeves or someone else may choose to thump/ hurt him, yes.
  2. Needing some puck luck & the next goal to give ‘em a spark! Their young legs need to keep moving! A 2nd wind is is on its’ way! Be 1st to the puck guys! Dish off quickly & dodge the hits! Fly boys, fly!!!
  3. Sutherland & O’Rourke are a part of the evil triad (with O’Halloran) & working in these Edmonton games still, as well. Hoping beyond hope that the Canucks were allowed to veto or black-ball at least one of them. If 2 of the above work a game together,...heaven help ‘em!
  4. ‘Nucks are still hanging in there. I hope their younger legs keep firing & that they out last the relentless boarding. Edler jersey, Markstrom ball cap deployed...now that it’s cooled down, I’m going to put on some ‘lucky‘ Canucks socks - for good measure!
  5. The one he tried to flip or lob in? Yah, Lehner has blind spots, use ‘em!!!
  6. I’m sure tech-guys advising the bench, would already be checking such things out.
  7. Ugh. Team looked like they were still & watchin’ on that goal. Time to ramp it up & fly! Answer back! Go Canucks Go!!!
  8. So very happy & proud to be wearin’ my Edler jersey tonight! He gave his all, stitched-up, blocking shots, & his decision making was spot on tonight! Eddie wants this run to be the one that gets it done! How many more ops will he have? Do it for the Eagle! Congrats to the lads for advancing to Round 2. They may not be able to hear it,..but I’m cheering my voice raw! Go Canucks Go!
  9. Is play-off Jake REALLY even there? Late-blooming & still-maturing player, I don’t know if it boils down to his fitness/ preparation, desire or head smarts,...but that particular trifecta for Jake has been elusive & hard to come by.
  10. Coach Green may be losing momentum in this chess match, but more moves are yet to be made.
  11. So, who should be reading the starting line-up out in the Canucks’ dressing room tomorrow?
  12. I wouldn’t have believed 0/6 on the PP was possible for this team, if you said so yesterday. Send ‘em mental energies folks!
  13. Looks like the Blues weathered the 1st period by simply playing rope-a-dope with the Canucks. They got the fortunate 1st goal & have now have the reserves to see this game through. Canucks really need to pull second winds outta their socks & work, work, work....& shoot the puck!!!
  14. Schenn & Perron are villainour, too. But never-more should we condone the Mark-Messier-leadership-enabled examples of dirty pool, like head-shots, breaking limbs, or carving-up faces. The key word there, if you didn’t already notice is ‘enabled’. (Mixed messaging over Messier’s leadership virtues is one of the leagues biggest hypocracies) O-6’s the Canucks are not & no grace would ever be extended. Besides, progressive hockey-fans here in VanCity, around the league & the world...have evolved beyond that.
  15. How is it that teams cannot ‘black ball’ or “veto” the deployment of at least one or two referees from doing their games in the play-offs? Canucks would likely choose Sutherland, O’Halloran and/or O’Rourke. And if several teams request to ‘veto’ or ‘black ball’ the same referees....these usual suspects should NOT work the play-offs. Sutherland seems to disgrace himself almost as much as the infamous Auger, when it comes bias, vindictiveness, ineptitude &/or carry over justice.
  16. Yikes Seeing that Blues’ villain (Schenn) score - actually brought a grimace to my face. Get mad & get even ‘Nucks! Battle on!
  17. Don’t look to Sutherland for anything. That zebra has been hatin’ on the Canucks, in perpetuity. His bias is insanely consistant against ‘em. I’d boo him more eagerly than I boo Bettman.
  18. One clearly sees differing levels of maturity between Jake and some of his other young teammates, whether he’s in the bubble...or out of it. He hasn’t fully arrived yet, has he? When will that happen? Who knows, but if it ain’t now,...will the wait be worth it? Jake’s got attributes that can’t be taught, but does will he ever develop the necessary instincts to play the game in harmony with those who ‘think’ the game at an elite level, with any consistency? He dwells in that “redeem yourself” category far too often. Collectively say a prayer for our team’s wild card, if he’s returned to the line-up.
