Jester13 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 7 hours ago, smokes said: What scares me is that for the two periods the Canucks did not have Pettersson, the offence totally looked awful. They actually played their best hockey of the game after he left. The play of Price should not be overlooked. If you look at player's comments after the game (from both teams) you'd see that the Nucks had some grade A chances and he stole the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you mean. Our team seemed to lose a lot of energy and dynamism after Petterson left. One of Montreals' commentators even mentioned it during the game. Also, yeah Price was godlike that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously a lot of fans are very interested and the team must have the MRI results by now. 1 hour ago, Darius said: The kid has been knocked around pretty good in the past 3 games. Hopefully the knee is ok and this is a good opportunity to take a rest for a few days that coincide with a slow stretch in the schedule. Agree completely. Even if EP's knee feels fine and no structural damage shows up on the MRI, there is still some healing going on that could be disrupted if he plays. And he could just use the rest, as could Horvat and some other guys. WIth a break in the schedule, EP could come back refreshed on Thursday (assuming the MRI looks ok.) In fact, the whole team could use some rest after another tough road trip. How about if the team concedes the 2 pts against Toronto and takes the day off? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's having the MRI only today per Green in his post-practice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s it say of the level of this team when actually facing a top 5 team in the league. Our back end isn’t of nhl level. We have 6-6/7D-men and a backup goalie. I wouldn’t expect us to win too many with that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
