aqua59 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Wow what can one really say about that one? I was hoping for a point in the third but that sure didn't transpire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyndall2 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Wow! What a disaster. Another first period with a non-existent offense. Maybe the team should just show up from the second period on (sic). Yes, Demko let in 7 goals but he was not the cause of the loss. On a hot night he might have stopped a couple of those but he was left out to dry with Edler and crew trying to play goal. As Don Cherry always said, get the heck out of the way and let your goalie see the shot. No physicality around the front of our net. Aren't guys like Edler and Myers suppose to be knocking guys on their butts? And the coaching--I will let others make comments about that exhibition.

There’s a few of us sane fans here.. firing green would be an awful move right now and I’m glad our management group doesn’t react the way our fan base does 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller seems to be the glue of whatever line he is on. He is always fishing pucks out of the corners, and fore checking hard. I'm not sure what the actual numbers are, but out puck possession must be high when he is on the ice. I thought they already started cloning organisms?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to Makar, but honestly, if Quinn was on the Avs playing with Mac all game long, he would be the scoring leader among all rookies right now. I would argue that Quinn drives the play on this team more than any other player (Petey included). Makar does it sometimes, but reality is that Mac drives the play on that team. I really hope Quinn keeps it up and wins the Calder this year. He deserves it more than Makar IMO. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Highlights came on this morning & I wanted to crawl into a hole. Thankfully I was watching the game with friends so I didnt go as crazy as as I wouldve if I was watching alone & chatting with you fine folks. Not alot of fun listening to the post game show today. This is a tough one to digest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn is great but, I disagree with your take on Makar you're not giving him nearly enough the credit he deserves for his play. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen him make some really bad passes on the breakout, turning pucks over, and just a step behind everyone else. he is doing fine, sitting third on the list in points on the team. lately it seems all the players have been making bad passes, even Petey and Miller and especially Bo. but they are all learning to play together this season . it will happen!

I just realized Demko started against Flyers and then again versus the Pens. Is it just Green rewarding a solid performance from the previous game or are they testing out Demko to see if he's ready to take over as #1?

JayDangles Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Everyone is so focused on the outcome of the game and the terrible 3rd. In reality the biggest problem with the team wasn't blowing a 3 goal lead, it was not even registering a shot on goal in the first 12 minutes. This after such a strong Washington game, then an embarrassing Philly game. The team should have come out of the gates swinging, setting themselves up for a 4/6 roadtrip! The Canucks played about 30 minutes out of 60. Thats brutal, IMHO the collapse in the 3rd is on the players.... but the lackluster start is on Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralph. Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 That was a tough collapse to watch, but they'll learn. Tough times are where players grow together as a team as long as it's not excessively prolonged, ala Edmonton. It's been a bit of a slide lately, but I think they're nearly through it. Beagle/Sutter/Rous back will be a significant boost, and Ferland hopefully will be too. Positives? Two goals from Gaud, in different styles. Man, he's really coming into his own, playing with a lot of confidence. Miller continuing his dominance as well, man was he ever a great addition. Quinn, another 3-assist game. What a talented kid, drives so much from the back end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The West is really tightening up and the Canucks could very easily wake up Monday morning and find themselves tied with the Wild for 14th in the West slightly ahead of the Kings. The 2 games against the Oilers this weekend are important, they don't want to all of a sudden be chasing 5-6 teams for a wildcard. Ya and expect Calgary to be better next bit with a new coach. Assuming they fire the racist. Edit Same with Nashville Edmonton and Phoenix should start slow down though.

luckylager Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Upon reflection there's some good stuff - Canucks scored 6 goals while only giving a proper effort for 25 mins. Jake and Petey could and should actually be a dynamic duo in the future, they had a brief "Naslund Bertuzzi" vibe out there. Can't say enough good about Hughes. We got lucky And that ends today's installment of good stuff 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see a guy who fore checks hard, and is putting up points. I see a guy who is actually skating better then he did all of last year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
