  1. If they lose a game it means they aren't ready for playoffs ?. I've been watching this sport for 4 decades and I haven't seen one team go perfect record. Toronto has been playing really good hockey last 2 games. They beat Tampa and a Florida on the road since the fiasco vs CAR. I watched both games and I watched Canucks last 2 games. I thought Toronto would win on home ice. They're playing good hockey right now.
  2. Not too worried. If we go .500 rest if way good chance we make playoffs. I wasn't expecting Canucks to win tonight but was expecting Demko and Hughes to have good games. Back to the UFC. Main event about to start
  3. Wow worst stoppage in UFC history during LHW bout between Cutelaba and Ankalaev. Ref stopped fight with both fighters on their feet 38 seconds into the fight. Really wanted to See this fight Ankalaev is a Dagestani beast. Both fighters knock out punchers. Too bad ref ruined it. Ankalaev too win. Back to Canucks game. Hopefully they tie it soon here.
  4. And Virtanen. Shot off the crossbar with 30 secs to go in period.
  5. Ohh maaan... off the bar.. that would have been sweet going into 2md intermission.
  6. Turning in to a pretty good game. Both teams have settled in now.
  7. This was my biggest worry regarding tonight's game... I thought he'd bounce back but boy...
  8. Anderson has been playing really bad since he returned from injury...
  9. Big decisions will be made this summer regarding Canucks goal tending. How he plays during Marky's injury will impact those decisions. Demko might not be a Canuck next year. He might get traded at draft. Or he might be our starter. If you don't want to discuss it you don't have to. Don't involve your self. Just ignore and move on instead of quoting and posting on this subject you don't wish to discuss.. The anxiety people feel when they come across a conversation they are not involved in nor have interest in is amazing. cheers!
  10. EP will be ppg player vs Leafs after tonight's game. He'll have 1g 2 asst tonight to give him 3 pts in 3 games.
  11. Watching as well. CGY got scored on with 0.1 secs left vs NSH and lost in OT last game. What a kick in the gut that must have felt like. They're in a race with NSH for a wild card playoff spot.
  12. BOS beat NYI 4-0. Was looking forward to watching this game but didn't. NYI fell behind 2-0 knew it was over. BOS legit cup contender again this year. 1 Cup win and 2 more SCF appearances since 2011
  13. I'm aware of that. Been following his development since the day he was drafted. He's been working with Clark for 2 yrs now. Time to show his improvements.. 3 bad games in a row would not be good not only for Demko but any goalie in NHL. Starter or backup. Here's hoping he doesn't allow an early soft one. Personally I'm expecting him to have a very good game tonight. I think he'll be solid. cheers
  14. We'll see. Are you saying give them DiPietro + another small add to take a different roster player? That could interest Seattle. Maybe DiPietro plus a 3rd round pick and they take a healthy Ferland with 70 games played next season.. Too many variables. We'll see what happens in summer.
  15. Can't have both Rous and LE on same line as a young Gaudette. If Rous was playing well right now then ya maybe. But that line would have a hard time against Leafs speedy and skilled top 2 lines. Don't forget Leafs get last line change on home ice. So they get to match lines.
  16. Just off top of my head, Georgiev in NYR. just turned 24 yrs old, recently took over as #1 in NYR. Around 40 NHL games before this year. Jarry in PIT 24 yrs old, took over as #1 has been great as starter. 29 games under his belt when he took over as starter.. Likely more but I don't see why that matters so not going to search. Is it about age? Hart in Philly is 21 yrs old, starter and very solid. I'm not sure what that has to do with Demko though.
  17. They won't take a 4th liner Shmoe to pass on Demko. It'll be a heavy cost. just like it was for teams during Vegas expansion draft. MIN gave up Alex Tuch for VGK to pass on a player, Lots of high picks also went to Vegas for passing on certain players. They took in a big haul and built a SCF team in first year.
  18. What? Every backup in the Nhl should be counted on not to have 3 bad games in a row. 1 game yeahh, two maybe....three games not so good. He's not 21 yrs old. He's 24 now. I don't expect EP or Quinn to have 3 bad games in a row. That's about all. And I don't think they have.
  19. Ya, the problem is Demko won't make it past Seattle. They'll take him if exposed. Yes on locking up Clark, his contract is up at the end of this season. As well as Judd Brackett's. Both are very important parts of the team and need to be locked up asap..
  20. Nah, Ian Clark transformed and rebuilt Marky's game over that last 2 seasons. Demo has been working with and being developed by Ian Clark. Couldn't ask for a better situation.. I think Demko will be a legit starter pretty soon. Perhaps next year but with in 2 years for sure imo.
  21. Who has jumped to conclusions. I've read most of this thread not sure I've read a post where someone has jumped to conclusions on Demko after 2 games since Marky's injury.
