yes we can nucks Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 On the Canucks road trip through Col/Cal, the team exceeded our expectations and won 3 of 4 in 6 days. It was a pivotal road trip as they proved they could compete with the big boys. Since then, they have kept winning and are now third overall in the league. They are now headed east for 7 games spread out over a reasonable 12 days with short trips and just one back-to-back. The way things are going, my expectations for this road trip are much higher this time around. My prediction is they will go 5-1-1, beating Columbus, Washington, Pittsburgh (in OT), Toronto, and Ottawa, while losing only to Montreal because of Price and Detroit (in OT) because Datsyuk is back. What are you expecting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanIsleNuckFan Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 We will win....ALL THE GAMES!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZephyrsSong Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 As long as they beat Toronto, that's a big win for me. Seriously though, as for the whole trip, I would say they go 4-2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I want 7-0 these are inferior teams in the nhl. Show the east they deserve to b relegated to Mexico or Zimbabwe hockey league :D I expect the team to compete hard and deserve 5 of 7 wins. Elite teams win games they don't compete for 60 minutes so hopefully they can pull out wins even when they don't deserve it. That being said, I'll predict 5-2-0 with 2 extra time wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I would love to see a 7-0 trip but I think 5-2 seems much more likely to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montreal is playing well and are tough at home ... and of course they have Price. Pittsburgh is also hot and has an awesome offense. They are second only to that powerhouse Calgary team in goals for. So shutting them down will be tough. Are these the two games you think they will lose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hondamatic Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 My prediction: 4 Wins (Jackets, Pens, Wings and Habs) 2 Losses (Leafs and Sens) 1 OT or Shootout Loss (Caps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honky Cat Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I always circle the Saturday game against the Leafs in my calendar..Nothing gives me more satisfaction than to beat them in their own barn (same with the Habs)...Im not predicting any scores,but I think the team is on a good roll,they're leaving Vancouver on this road trip with a good vibe.

So shutting them down will be tough. Are these the two games you think they will lose? No I think we'll show up against them. Both games vs the penguins were blatantly fixed last year so hopefully the officiating is even this year. Maybe now with torts gone the refs have less of a vendetta against us. It's the weaker teams we sometimes lose too... Can't afford that. Play hard and go 7 0 but you never know when you play Pittsburgh. The 2 loses would come against a hot goalie. Bobrovsky is capable of that and so is price. Pittsburgh and Canadiens are average teams in a horrendous conference. They wouldn't make the top 6 in the west. Maybe battle for wildcard but definitely not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.Am.Ironman Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I think the minister hit the nail on the head. 4-2-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUndaCanuck Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 We've got to slow down eventually, but with Hamhuis out this defence is playing better physically and far safer than ever before which is perfect road hockey. Columbus - win Detroit - win Washington - win Pittsburgh - loss Toronto - big win Ottawa - OT loss Montreal - loss 4-2-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Fig Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 7 games is a helluva long trip. I think it will be 8-9 points. All things considered, an 8-point trip would be just fine. I really just want to see them play well and play hard as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalky Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I'm really hoping to beat the Wings and Habs, I know too many fans locally. I really belive we can win any and all of the games but realistically I will predict. 4-2-1 Columbus - W Detroit - W Washington - L Pittsburgh - W - Crosby gets nailed by Sbisa and cries before soiling himself on the ice. Toronto - W Ottawa - SO-L Montreal - L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
