Blueberries Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Prust seems like he could use a rest next game. Higgins does not contribute much when he is on the ice, but since we do not have anyone else to take his spot he'll have to stay in. Next game: Sedins-Burrows Baer-Horvat-Vrbata Etem-Vey-Virtanen -> could be magic Higgins-Cracknell-Dorsett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks Prophet Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 1 minute ago, Down by the River said: Virtanen had as many shifts in the first period as he did in the second and third combined. Don't reward a guy for a good first period or anything... The PK killed a lot of Virtanen's potential ice time. Judging by his first period minutes, I'm sure Willie wanted to play him a bit more. Besides, when your linemate is Higgins, the line is not gonna get much confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he's dying to get rid of Higgins and put Etem on there. I fully support this mindset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yet another point. These points will cost us a top three pick (Yes I'm pro tank this year) Watch us just miss the playoffs and pick middle again lol. Deeper draft than last year and people kid themselves that this team can do damage in the playoffs. Only positives is Horvat,Baer and Markstrom.

Im putting this loss on WD. How about putting the 4th line out with less than 30 seconds left in a tie game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come playoffs small dumb mistakes cost you, and these 4 guys are a circus of dumb mistakes during close games. It's every game with these 3 and wait till Sbisa returns. please add -miller, burrows, vrbata, Bartowski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup hopefully he's gone at the deadline. It looked like he was skating in quicksand tonight. Add Bartowski to the list too. Not a great game.

HC20.0 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I'm not even mad that we lost. That was a very good game by both teams and goaltenders. It's so annoying though, that was by far our best 3 on 3 OT period. The Canucks wanted that one more then Tampa. It's so frustrating that it had to end badly for us because of a bone headed move by our captain. If a rookie makes that mistake, that's slightly more forgivable. But your all time points leader and captain makes a bone headed move like that... Just so frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Angelo Russell Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Even though we lost this game, I love seeing the young players leading the way offensively. Games like this don't feel like a loss to me at all because of that. Maybe its just my expectations for this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
