  1. For all of you who said the 'Nucks should have given Markstrom starts in either BUF, before he sat too long or in ARI, where there would be less pressure for his 1st NHL start in awhile,...give yourselves a back-pat. I dont' understand all of WD's reasonings sometimes,... I just dont. Sigh.

      well he tried to give a vote of confidence to his guy and it didn't work out.

      imo it's reflective of what management thought of him as, an NHL calibre goalie who's not getting an opportunity right now.

      i'd do it again

      Damned if you do and damned if you don't.

  2. Should that late sucker-punch by Reeves on Kassian be deemed a suspendable act by the DPS?

      nah it was a nice punch chill bro we got this

    2. TheRussianRocket.

      3 games for Kassian.

    3. *VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS*

      *VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS*

      Kassian will be suspended for bleeding

  3. Nucks' home-record is looking more comparable to their road-record,..but where do the Kings get off pretending that they're not being aided & abetted at home - with that ridiculous disrepancy between their records. H 20-7-8 , A 9-14-6

    1. Oliewud

      Oliewud

      IMO its more due to the fact of their ice conditions. they have more experience playing on that crap.

      Interesting observation that. I think it's the senior & ingratiated refs who repeatedly get to bid for the plum-assigments out of the So-Cal hub,....being just a little too star-struck by the Cup Champs & their celebrity friends.

  4. 'Nucks are touted as the best road-team in the NHL,...and then they do that?! Oye vey!! No words...& just no more praise, pleazzzze.

      If those 2-points end-up costin' 'em a play-off spot,..this loss will be even more tough to swallow. Wish this game had been given to Markstrom. He's looked hungry to play, really motivated, & seemed more rested. But, now this is momentum lost, and the #1 is a signifigant part of that. Total shame.

      did you say "oye vey?"

      LOL. A side-effect of watchin' SNL's "Coffee Talk" with Linda Richman, I suppose.

      Rocky & Kenin-ball, are 2 of my faves. But if we call him Kenny - who's Spenny? LOL...Sbisa.

  7. LOL @ the 4 amigos who won the Oscar for writing Birdman, bro-mancing after knocking their Oscars together sayin' "Cheers!" before giving rapid-fire shout-outs to their loved ones!

  8. Can't believe I had to break-away from watchin' tonight's Ranger game when it was just 1-1....watching it now, and will read the GDT and PGT after! Just seeing the results of the game has me excited! How the hell did this rag-tag crew get an OT win and score 5 goals?!

    1. Gstank29

      Gstank29

      You have to see if to believe it

    2. viking mama

      Wow! Grinding game,..a very entertaining and dramatic 3rd,..and shoot-out perfection! Gotta like the game of Bo, Kennins, Sbisa, Matthias, Clendening, Miller, and the worth ethic of all.

    3. viking mama

      viking mama

      Everyone was taking-out there man..hated the zebras giving happy bounces offtheir knees and bodies to the opposition...but the 'nucks overcame it. Well deserved win by out-playing the pesky Rags at the end. Bring on the Schneids & the Devils!

  9. Sweet relief! Martin Hanzal, the Canucks-Killer, will be out of commission for the remainder of season. With all of those upcoming games vs the 'Yotes in March & beyond,...that's likely injuries averted before the play-offs. Phew!

      Forsberg? Sakic? Hejduk? Yzerman? Fedorov?

    3. Ronalds.Kenins41

      Ronalds.Kenins41

      Hejduk I think is the best one of all time, it seems like every time he played us he scored the tying goal or game winner.

    4. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      ^ :( he still haunts my dreams

  10. Benn & Seguin can share more laughs together when the Sedins are Hall-of-Famers,...and they're NOT.

  11. I agree with Shorty,...and I'm sayin' this before this game has even started. They should have played Lack vs PITTS tonight. Miller has lost his last 4 out of 5. Like Luongo was at times before him,...Ryan Miller may be slightly distracted by the upcoming birth of his 1st child soon.

    1. viking mama

      viking mama

      So - Miller gets a shut-out,..his 1st ever vs Pitts. He's OKAY!

    2. viking mama

      viking mama

      And, he's not okay,.. again. Start Lack-man in CHI, pleazzze.

  12. I can resist eatin' Halloween candy before Hallowe'en...I won't open Christmas presents before Christmas or be tempted by any gingerbread house or candy canes on a Christmas tree. I can even forgo sampling those heart-shaped sugar cookies & chocolates before Valentine's Day,..but I just can't resist those Easter 'Eggies' - all year round! Best holiday confection ever.....yes or no?

      Tearloch - that accusation was harsh! LOL. Cinnamon hearts stain the world in red. I don't like those deathly-sweet creme eggs things either, Shakey. Give me those little Cadbury 'Eggies' with the crunchy shells.. they melt in your mouth, not in your hands and seem to last awhile for good rationing purposes.

    3. viking mama

      viking mama

      ^my bad, they're called 'mini eggs'.

    4. brilac

      brilac

      Oh yes best holiday confection ever! I love it when Halloween/Christmas/Valentines/Easter candy goes on sale! Now that is the best. Opportunity to stock up, but it doesn't really stock up for me. I end up eating all the candy within a few days.

  13. Tanev will not be in the line-up tonight. Yikes. :(

      Was Tanev injured from the crunching hit that he took from behind the net?

      Regardless... I can see why Tanev isn't/wasn't being tradebaited by Benning.

    3. AriGold

      AriGold

      Without Tanev the Canucks will get smoked by the Sharks tonight...

      The Tan-man makes all of his teammates just a little bit better. @Dazzle - I think he's concussed. I hope he can play vs PITTS on Sat. night. Who knows tho'?

  14. Who delivered the crankier message, last night,...WD who healthy-scratched Kassian, again...or Maurice who refused to put Kaner in his line-up to play in his own hometown? Hmmmm...

      One of those was due to missing curfew.

      ^that'd make a coach cranky.

  15. Katey, the pop-princess did good! The half-time show had all of the illusions of an Olympic opening ceremony. Lenny's still hot! But - that 'Teenage Dream' sequence made me think that I was watchin' a promo for the 'Sponge-Bob Square-Pants' movie! Yikes!!

    1. c00kies

      c00kies

      I thought it was something from the Treehouse channel lol.

  16. Altho' the Patriots look to be in control right now,..remember what happened the last time a team had the Seahawks down & counted them out? Anything's possible!

    1. The Magician

      The Magician

      It’s a 1 TD no one’s counting anyone out

  17. Would they dare to announce that Bettman is in the house, tonight?

      not exactly my choice for Com. though would be much more suitable in a less public role. People skills aren't exactly his greatest strength haha.

      ..and he's looking more and more like Mr. Burns every day. Gheezz.

    4. Ronalds.Kenins41

      Ronalds.Kenins41

      he's a talented negiotor though and is consistently growing the bottomline.

  18. Bouchard vs Sharapova, anyone...or the AHL All-Star game?

    1. Mr.DirtyDangles

      Mr.DirtyDangles

      I hope we get to see Bouchard spank Sharapova ;D

      Which one has Horvat playing

  19. Worst breakaway competition...E-V-E-R. And for votes, too?! Crickets. Nothing close to the NBA's Slam-dunk. Stop trying so hard to use gimicky props. Go game-style..

      You're right. If Bettman & Co. are using this event to appeal to families with tykes & pee-wee aged players,...I suppose, they're nailing it.

    3. *VaNcOuVeRCaNuCkS*

      Lol, don't watch it

      I've stopped watching All Star games ages ago. Baseball and Basketball seem to be the only sports that work with an All-Star format. Football and Hockey just don't work.

  20. Apparently the city of Columbus doesn't forget very easily, either. The #1 boo-getter at the AS skills competiton...Rick Nash!! LOL.

  21. Verby getting top-3 in the 'accuracy shooting' competition,...would make my day. Winning it,...a cause to celebrate. Make it so!

  22. Kessel is picked before Stamkos, Voracek, & Weber in the NHL All-Star Fantasy Draft. WTF?!!! I'm with the homeboys on Team-Foligno...after that call alone. Sorry, Roberto!

      Oh boy! What did Phil do to turn-off Team-Toews & the gang so soon? The guy's more of a joke this time,..than last. I guess I'm cheerin' for Verby's team, but I'm face-palming the Seguin-Kessel trade - Capt. Nick.

    3. Dazzle

      Dazzle

      He'll just get a car at the end.

      Hoping that Radim doesnt have to be Phil's line-mate. He'll be gettin' the opposite of the Sedin-treatment & a huge +/- challenge. Good Luck with that, Verby!

  23. Was Bonino's goal, in PHI....the goal of the year so far in 2015?

      ^2015 has only had a couple of weeks in it.

  24. I think we made him cry!!!

  25. I will be Luing,...and giving him a standing-O....it's all good & Miller will also see that this market can definitely appreciate & support a franchise goalie.
