-Vintage Canuck- Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 "Everyone thinks of Vanek as a goal scorer, maybe his rap is that he doesn't play hard enough, that he's just a goal scorer. But I love his compete level. He's got a real inner desire to win. He's extremely smart and really understands the game." - Green on Vanek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Green's press conferences are so different from Willie's. Just tells you as it is. He's in total control. Willie just never looked comfortable at the NHL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alflives Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 1 minute ago, WHL rocks said: I like the 4 pm start once in a while. Why do people hate it so much. It gives out of town fans to come in and watch a game a couple of times per year and the East Coast gets to see our team and players. If it starts at 7 vs TOR then most people are sleeping out east, I'd rather them see Horvat Boeser and others. Makes are players bigger stars. It’s not that comment. It’s his vocal hatred of our team, and our city. Why hire a guy who clearly, and openly hates us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullcrap this has been happening since the CBC went with the doubleheaders over a decade ago! They should have zoomed in on that aweful leafs logo and said that. At least they could have told the truth with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogers is always quiet xD I think it was a combination of nervous canucks fans (cant blame us) and shutting leafs fans up early.

Probably the main reason why they make this trip out to the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Building Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I hope Goldobin plays the next game. He may have looked a step out of place there, but this game was nuts. Aside from that weak ass penalty call I don't think he played all that badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianRugby Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 10 minutes ago, higgyfan said: Ya, 'cause the entire fanbase were there at Rogers'. No but I meet a lot of Canuck fans, there's so many bandwagon jumpers. Not talking about the people here, I assume you have to be kinda passionate to come talk about your team in a forum. Don't you think most Canuck fans were happy to run Luongo out of town even though he's the best goalie we've ever had and ended the goalie graveyard we had? Blamed him for losing in the finals even though the team set an NHL record for fewest goals scored in a 7 game series.. but mostly I'm talking about the lack of cheering, and awful atmosphere at Canuck games. I'm not saying anything controversial here, it's been talked about for years in this forum. I've been to a lot of sports events in a lot of cities and I love the Canucks but our fanbase stinks, sorry. The team is pretty exciting this season so to be outcheered in our own building? Pretty sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall a sequence of complete 200' play and the rest of his toi he wasn't caught out of position. id like to see him stay and continue to develop his own game as well as chemistry with his line.

He's in total control. Willie just never looked comfortable at the NHL level. His deployment, in game adjustments, & analysis on player's strengths/weaknesses reveal a sophisticated, astute eye for the game. Deep down every player(that's competent) yearns for such an individual callin' the shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
