  1. Beside the great games by Bo Hoggy and Holtby the big story tonight was the contribution by so many depth players. We had Petey Beagle Virt Demko Schmidt Juolevi Rathbone Highmore all sitting on the sidelines. This team has about 28 guys who can pitch in and play. That is a great thing for an up and coming team! If they make the playoffs look out. That depth could be very important and difficult for opponents to handle.
  2. I'm 59 and I have a son who is 29. Proud of you for all your positivity my boy! Keep it up. Positive energy will take the Canucks to a Cup!
  3. Now 18 games in 31 days for a team that has one under the belt and looked pretty good...that's a little better no?
  4. Never mentioned by TO media is that Vancouver and TO are now 3 - 3 in their season series. But of course that means nothing because they are such a superior team in every way. Lol.
  5. If MTL goes .500 the rest of the way, that is 7-7, they wind up with 61 points. We would then need to go 12-6 to tie them at 61 points and win the tie breaker because of more ROW. It's not impossible unless MTL plays a lot better down the stretch than they have been.
  6. Bo plays when the chips are down. Tonight, playoffs. When needed. Miller did a great thing speaking out and some people think he should be the Captain and yes he could be. But no. Bo is our Captain and is a great young leader. He will hoist the cup for us!
  7. This win is especially heartfelt this year. So many people have had impacts from the pandemic. Health, loss, economic etc etc. For our team to come back from what they dealt with and beat Toronto in their first game back is an absolute gift. So proud of this team!
  8. Good try at trolling partner. But this is too much fun to care about your poopy pants.
  9. Great to see. This will make this team tighter in the future. That is a great silver lining when things get tough in the playoffs some year down the road.
  10. The 8 or 9 guys out that he is referring to likely Pettersson, Beagle Virtanen Motte Schmidt Demko and possibly he also means Juolevi Highmore
  11. Going through the news reports etc best guess right now at the Canucks lineup: Boeser Horvat Miller Sutter Roussel Vesey Hoglander MacEwen Hawryluk Boyd Pearson Lind/Graovac Edler Myers Hamonic Hughes Chatfield Brisebois Holtby (DiPietro)
  12. OP is right. Next 6 games will set the table. Montreal lost again tonight. They are 12 points ahead of us but we have 5 games in hand. Cgy is 6 points ahead of us but we have 7 games in hand. Four of our next 6 games are against Ottawa. I am perfectly willing to accept that if the Canucks don't do well in their next 6 games that they are done. But the OP just makes the point that if they win 5 of them they are going to be in it. And that is true. The other thread that talks about mathematical probability is complete bunk. Those probabilities change every time someone wins or loses. This post is actually calm, reasonable and correct. Win 5 of the next 6 we are in the hunt. Do a lot worse, we are not. Good post.
  13. Ok just read a Sportsnet story saying Petey might be out the rest of the year. Man that sucks. Can we get some info as to what his injury is, how it happened and why he could miss the season? After all this time it would be nice if the media could actually come up with some answers amidst all their negativity. A little hardworking journalism instead of just click bait please.
