Will never happen, but god damn would it be 100x better than what our management group sees as a good bottom 6. Yep, I rather have 3 good scoring lines, at least a 3rd line with scoring capability than 2 scoring lines and 2 checking lines. Our goal was to improve goal scoring this year and I feel our lineup tonight was not the best lineup we could have had. Sutter, Beagle and Motte should be the checking line that plays maybe 10 minutes max while we roll 3 lines equally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myers ran him over the next shift. I've seen him play worse. He got some chances here and there. Not a good game by his standards obviously, but Smith stoned him a few times. The top line does need to get it's 5 v 5 game in order. Throughout the preseason and into tonight's game I don't think I've seen them the play much at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post -AJ- Posted October 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 IMO we were the better team for about the last 45 minutes. The Oilers capitalized on some brutal mistakes of ours, but outside of that, we were dominating the play. We just couldn't finish our plays. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Podzilla Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I don’t like the lines Ferland-Pettersson-Miller Pearson-Horvat-Boeser Virtanen-Gaudette-Leivo Eriksson-Beagle-Sutter 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cluminati* Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Gaudette was one the top performers in the preseason. You’re hitting his confidence by sitting him in the press box, almost as bad as sending him down. Ride that momentum that the kid had, play him and bench Sutter!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grape Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 6 minutes ago, Ihatetomatoes said: McDavid also blew by Tanev. Why aren't you pointing out how bad that play was by Tanev? Hughes was at least able to get a stick on the puck on fastest player in the league after a turnover in the neutral zone and McDavid having momentum. Because Tanev literally did all he could to stop McDavid. Hughes was in a better position to stop McDavid and probably could've done more . You can't be serious if you think none of that was on Hughes. If you think I'm biased against Hughes, I can tell you I've spent almost half a thousand dollars to watch Hughes play a couple dozens of times already at Michigan. I ordered a customizable jersey the second we drafted him. I just have higher expectations of him and I think that goal highlights something that's pretty reoccurring of him, the fact that he plays too passively sometimes and without urgency on the defensive end, kinda like Edler, who naturally is a good defender already. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The throwing of the stick half way across the rink could be seen from half way across the globe. The stick throw was after the goal was already scored haha. But the original call was a no brainer. Dove for his stick, grabbed it. Clearly hooked it out from him and you could see his hand holding it the entire time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Comeback_Kings Posted October 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 3, 2019 Canucks played well tonight. They played Canucks style hockey. They managed to get some real zone time and certainly had the puck on their sticks more than the Oilers. Oilers played well and look defensively sound under Tippet. Sucks seeing Kassian on their load em up line. Surprised with how well Pearson played, skated hard, hope he keeps that up. Loved how Hughes played, such a smart player and never gives up. EP was his amazing self and came very close to scoring. Maybe the fans do know something. Was Sutter who gave up the puck to McDavid on the game winner. He chose not to skate when he had some room and made a bad pass, yeah was late in his shift and tough to give it up to McDavid, but this is where Canucks should have an advantage given they are spending all that money on their bottom six. Canucks should have a third line that can score. Leivo isn't the player to move to EP's wing when Ferland isn't being effective. Don't know who on tonight's roster could have been that guy. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
