Darius Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Rather see the jets do well than the coil, lames or laffs. Growing pains.. Winnipeg was not very good for a good number of years , no outright bottom finishes but good drafting and a lotto win really helped them.( ie they really didn’t have to outright tank) canucks will do ok. March and January feature an inordinate amount of home games. Couple that with a healthier roster and they will be better than they have shown during this brutal stretch.

Rindiculous Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Who's the most overrated player in the NHL: Sean Monahan or Patrik Laine? I've always thought Monahan is, but after the previous two games and seeing how Laine is completely invisible all night yet still seems to score, I might have to change my mind. If Brock Boeser played with Laine's teammates, he'd easily have 60 goals a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoGuitar Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 That was just demoralising after all those chances to score to have the line gassed and watch Laine score the insurance goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBdaQUIB Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Jets are good and the guys made it a game but the weak goals put them in Too deep a hole to dig out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was in for the ceremonial faceoff tonight? I missed first few minutes Michael Del Zotto... I know he's caught a lot of flack lately, but I thought that he was one of the better Canuck d-men tonight. Hutton played well also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Buzzsaw* Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Until the Canucks get a big board controlling, crease clearing defenseman like Tryamkin, they will have trouble with big physical teams like the Jets. The current defense is just too small, they were chasing all game and the Jets just controlled the boards. Gagner had a good game... could have had a couple assists if he had wingers who can shoot better. Markstrom poor game... first goal set the tone for the whole rest of the period which was a write-off. And there were another two weak ones. Not that he shouldn't be our #1 goalie, but shows he needs to sit for a while... if Nilsson is ready, he should play. Pettersson is getting back into the form he showed early on... had lots of opportunities and was making things happen all night. Goldobin showed some brilliant flashes, but still has no confidence in his shot... he should be practicing his wrister every spare second he has. Another learning experience for the team... up against a very good team. Personally I am not worried about them losing.... I thought they tried hard and competed all night... that is the important thing. The Jets are in their window for a Cup.... they have about 3 years and then they will start getting old... but right now they are as good as any team in the NHL.

ruilin96 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Any hope of making the playoffs will have to hope for when the key guys get back, no more major injuries and need to go on some sort of win streak sometime in December/January. I think because of the weak division, we still have a chance. But it really pisses me off that so many games in the last while that we lost would of been Ws if we have any sort of healthy rosters.

Its obvious when compared to the Jets' D, the Canucks D made poor passes in their own zone often and created a ton of turnovers. Markstrom wasn't the reason they lost but he did also pull a Bachman early in the game, and that doesn't help. Del Zaster and Guddy look like they are 50 years old out there. Canucks need some D guys who can skate. Meh guddy has been one of our most consistent dman this year stecher and Hutton can skate just fine missed you when we were winning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coconuts Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 We were outskilled and outclassed, a healthy Canucks team shortens the gap between the two teams. I wouldn't say we were outworked though, I was very surprised to see us in it up until the end of the game. Especially considering how the first went. Gotta give the guys props for battling the way they did considering all the injuries we're dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jam126 Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Game Notes: Jets are damn good Can't allow so many shots against these guys Markstrom had a gaffe on the first and third goal but played very well Boys were fired up after the Roussel fight Gudbranson had a bad game Hutton has been a great surprise this season Pettersson with another PPG woot woot Tanev... SHOOT!! I think this team is cursed with these injuries, but they at least play hard. And I'm pretty sure the schedule makers are Flames fans.

Actually, I might prefer the lames over the Jets. The media doesn't jizz their pants when the Lames win, unlike the Laffs, Coils, or Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Great Canucks Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I don't care what any of you say, Winnipeg will always be a trash team! Laine is garbage. Pettersson will always be better than this loser, and Boeser will always be better than Connor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
