  1. First period in Edmonton they looked disorganized, but in the second they were spending most of their shifts in the ozone, by the third they had the puck all the time. Pretty much every shift against Calgary, they dominated possession time..........that said, they need to convert, for sure. To me, it's not having two goals scorers, it's having two mostly perimeter players o the same line.......easy to shut them down
  2. I don't mind that, but Bo, Miller and Pearson have been so dominant it'd be a shame to break them up. If it were me, I'd decrease Peteys time and play the hell out of Bo's line and let Petey enjoy more favourable match ups.
  3. It's not something to not be concerned about. He needs to find his groove and I think he and Boes need to be split up ........they're far too easy to shut down
  4. When people talk about one dimension, that dimension is offense, not just shooting. Where he lacks, greatly, is on defense.
  5. Ferland isn't the issue on that line, they need to switch boes out
  6. They haven't sucked, they outshot both teams. They just can't score and Petey and Boes are MIA
  7. I liked that line too and AG definitely shows moments of serious potential.......he also gets struggles defensively at 3C, but if they role with that configuration I'm sure he''ll adjust. He's a gamer, for sure. I'd like to see Baer on that line, drop Schaller to Utica and Leivo to the 4th.
  8. I loved the short elbows Jake was throwing as one of the Flames continually cross checked him in the back during a board battle. Kudos to the refs for letting them battle it out on that one.
  9. On the plus side, I added over a full page to my ignore list last night.
  10. I actually really enjoyed the Canucks game.......both teams had a lot of energy and there was a good amount of emotion in the game.
  11. I think part of the issue with Jake, and one of my few criticisms of TG, is that's been almost exclusively stick and very little carrot. After awhile you lose hope that you'll ever get the carrot, so you quit trying. TG needs to make sure Jake gets more consistent rewards when he's doing what is asked of him........and despite all the crap people talk about Jake, he's actually one of the more consistent, value added players on the team.
  12. I see a lot of this guy in him
  13. Well, he's not Mathew Tkachuk.......Tkachuk will never be OJ
  14. I think we're all going to be pretty happy with OJ when he gets to Van.
  15. did you watch the game? Calgary dominated for 10 mins on the second, even for the first and Van dominated after that..........they didn't look disorganized to me
  16. Jake and Bo heads and tails above the rest tonight for Van. Petey is putting in the effort, but looks not so good. Boes seems to be going full Nylander this year
  17. if they stay healthy, play with that kind of enetgy but get some puck luck, absolutely.
  18. I was just about to post that about your writing, you beat me to it! Ignore
  19. especially if I have to listen to drivel like this........oh yeah, I don't. IGNORE
  20. actually, they were even for 20 of the first 30 mins and absolutely dominated the third.
  21. disagree, I saw plently to be excited about. Jake had a helluva game and if Bo can kick it up on offense, he's getting to Elite territory.........teams just can't handle him down low.
