  1. Same.......he's got the luxury of a team playing well to give him some breathing room
  2. I think Ferland is starting to get more comfortable. He's a guy who depends on emotion to take his game to the higher levels and once he starts feeling more like a Canuck he'll kick things up a notch or two.
  3. Where's the guy who said Edler needs to stop shooting on the pp?
  4. It's still about making high percentage plays. The Best teams make high percentage plays......forcing a play at the blue line when there's nothing there is a risky, low percentage play. I do agree not pressuring makes it a waste though. I don't see Van doing that much though.
  5. A dump and chase every time over a n-zone turnover please. Not even a contest. Think of it like rugby, it's a better play to kick from your zone and get the ball deep in the other teams zone than it is to force the ball fwd if there's no lanes and risk turning the ball over in a scoring spot.
  6. If they have a lane for a zone entry they take it, but if there's nothing there, a dump and chase is miles better than a n-zone turnover.
  7. Been pretty much all Vancouver possession since the goal, but not generating chances.
  8. Nope, he's going to have a rough year if he can't figure it out soon. It's a good thing Benning we t out and bought a scoring cushion this summer.
  9. Why? That was a great shot and tip.......probably the most common play to score on the pp
  10. It just happens in a board battle. Bo also turned back on the Wing player and probably just skated into the stick.
  11. I don't like that Green gives him breaks while keeping Jake down, but that's not Leivo's fault. He works hard, has good instincts and I like him, but just doesn't have the consistent skills to play the role he's been given.
  12. If it was a miss, there's a pretty good chance it was Leivo on the receiving end! He missed a few last night
  13. Peteys biggest issue, imo, is fan/media expectations. People are portraying him like he's Crosby or McD........he's not, he's probably going to be a ppg avg player over his career, which is fantastic, but he's not likely to be the player fans are building him up to be
  14. People forget how well this team played last season when they were healthy.
  15. Total fallacy that Jake can't pass, just like the rest of the myths surrounding this player.
