Quinn is just so dynamic. He’s like an extra forward when needed but also a has great defensive instincts. He’s just getting better and better which is a crazy thought. I remember someone comparing him to Lidstrom last year and I thought that was a very bold thing to say....but wow this kid. Luke Hughes (youngest of 3) saids hi. Already close to 6 ft, tallest of the 3 brothers, also a Dman. But he has broken Quinn Hughes’s scoring record at the same age in the same league. He is 2021 draft eligible.

hobart16 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Not sure what to think about Schaller's game. Nothing bad, scored a decent goal. Wasn't super visible or impactful. And his goal was a little fortunate bouncing off the goalie but a goal is a goal. And Roussel seems a little absent compared to last year anyway. Miller great, Petey solid maybe a little below par for him and what he wants to do, Virtanen was good again, Boeser ok with one bad pass that cost us. Beagle, Sutter solid, Pearson was having tough luck with pucks bouncing on him, Bo solid as a rock, Loui was very good, Gaudette a little inconsistent but nothing bad and a great play to generate Schaller's scoring chance. The D played well overall with a shaky start from Myers. I don't know, not much to bitch about at all though the Isles looked a little quicker overall and going up 17 shots in the third seems excessive. Marky wasn't super tested despite the numbers, no stack the pads highlight reel stuff, but he swallowed up everything that came to him. Made things look easy and had another good game. I guess maybe Demko gets the next one? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustapha Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Just now, Warhippy said: If it comes down to a tie or near tie for points and both teams make the playoffs it has to be played down to who was more of a contributor for their team and by and large I think Hughes is the clear standout in that regard. The Avs made the playoffs without Makar last year, the Canucks were nothing defensively or on special teams last year prior to Hughes. I really hate how so many of these trophies rely on point production. It's important, but it shouldn't be the primary measurement. To your point, it's clear that Hughes is head and shoulders above the other D men here (no offense to them) and he's a rookie. He makes great plays in tight spots while under pressure better than MOST 10-year veterans. I don't even know who to compare him to, he's like Scott Niedermayer and Patrick Kane combined into one.

Can someone tell why the hell Millers goal was unassisted, he scored off a rebound and that usually gets an assist at least to the shooter??? Huggy should have got an assist for a 3 point game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Haven't looked it up, but I'm betting the Canucks' probability of winning the West is higher than their probability of missing the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also thinking that this may have been Quinn’s best overall game of his career. Some of his defensive plays were amazing as well today. i kept thinking "damn, this kid keeps getting better" 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coconuts Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) Quinn is looking like the kind of player we've been yearning for for decades. First of his ilk we've had since Ehrhoff, and he's a rookie. Isles probably should have won, it's nice to get away with one.

higgyfan Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Really enjoyed the game. The team battled hard and came very close to getting the reg. win. They were playing a great defensive game and keeping the NYIs away from the net. The OT showed us just how dominant this team is when they are in a pinch. It felt Sedin like during their reign. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rindiculous Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 You know what’s crazy, or maybe not really, Canucks are only 6 points back of the Blues for first in the West. If St Louis just loses a handful of games, Canucks could challenge for that top spot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
