WHY CANUCKS CAN BEAT HAWKS


BUCKFIFTY

Recommended Posts

Chicago's good ol' fashion big and nasty defence is their strength. Keith's not 100% and Edler can neutralize Seabrook.

Van's no longer passing up the middle and is playing tighter game.

The only reason Crawford's respectable IS Chicago's defence.

Put Vrabata back on with the Sedin twins - Vrabata knows where to be high slot.

Attack triangle with Sedins doing what they do best, quickly moving the puck around so the opposing goalie shows some open netting. Hansen is too low to net - needs to be mid to high slot for room to shoot.

Big Defence are slow - Van's forwards are fast - just keep moving. Slow the game down and Chicago's trolls are going to punish you. Fast game - you win.

Stay tight defence, no mistakes - keep Miller in net. He can do it again. Miller knows how to focus.

Keep slot clear D - pass to wingers on boards. No stretch passes, at least one winger within reach.

Chicago's a step down from NY. They're getting older. Keep that puck moving Van and play as a team that passes and you'll dominate.

We have the best record vs the hawks since 2010 than any other team in the nhl... I don't need more convincing. 

They are a pathetic team, and Even more pathetic city. Keith is garbage 

Bang on man.  3 cups in 6 years is complete trash

Chicago's trolls and big and nasty defence? Do you even know what kind of team Chicago is? Chicago is a skilled team who doesn't hit a lot and most of their defence is under 200lbs. They have 4 forwards and 1 defenceman at 5'11"! Just because they have Seabrook at 6'3"/220lbs does not make them big and nasty.

Maybe you should go ask Don Cherry how Chicago plays.

love your coaching style op.......but chicago isnt an old team that we can take advantage of. we have beaten them though so im confident

How old's Hossa now?

Kane's a lightweight.

Keiths banged up - the D, outside of Seabrook is old or slow.

Crawford's not the hottest goalie known to man.

Toews is a threat but it's just him and Kane - Van has more offence.

Alot of energy used by Canucks to beat NY but get a three day rest.

Need to list options for D to pull out of AHL - fast and strong just keeping puck out of slot.

Keep the plan simple for them.

Kane may be lightweight but he has points in 23 straight so...

Okay bud let's set the record straight. Yes, the Canucks are capable of beating any team on any given night. I think most teams in the league are and Chicago is no exception. On the other hand, this old and slow Chicago team you speak of have arguably the best player in the world in Toews, the frontrunner for the Hart in Kane who by no means is a lightweight and the most clutch player in the game, a banged up Keith is at least 2x better than any defenceman we have, Hossa is old but still an unreal 2 way player, Seabrook would be our number 1 defenceman if he were here, and with young guys like Panarin and TT, Chicago is still the odds on favorite to win the cup. You just jealous bro.
