[GDT] Ducks @ Nucks - Feb 16 2020 - 2pm Pacific - AFTERNOON GAME - SNET

[Bo fan]

Don't much like these early games - but this year they haven't  gotten the better of the team

Ducks - big and McUGLY  = better be playing big bodies

Go Canucks Go

[Roberts]

when was the last time Canucks used their road jerseys at home? The only time I recall them wearing white jerseys at home was when Henrik Sedin was named captain, against the Kings, but those were retro jerseys not their primary ones.

Best part of Sedin week was Bieksa's killer speech. But I felt kind of bad for his poke at Shorty. A bit nasally, sure, but it'll always be a welcome voice of the Canucks.

Had a chance to catch the team practice in person this morning, was pretty fun to watch.

 

Motte was back, regular jersey and looked good. Not sure how close he is to returning but he participated fully so hopefully soon.

 

Also caught a neat drill that Ian Clark was doing with Marky doing some moves helping him get his shoulder to the post, so will watch for that tomorrow too.

Ferland left Utica game with symptoms?

 

Hate to say it but it's starting to feel like he might be done

Agreed.  Furley, at 27, is going to bask in the sunshine on Robidas Island for three more years while collecting another 10 million.  Not too bad.  I think he will be just fine.

For sure, i think John Shorthouse is the best broadcaster in hockey broadcasting.

Motte is good, but don't play until 100% recover.

We have young players need gain NHL experience to benefit the future.

 

This is a good time to earn another 2 points, let's keep in the first of the division.

How far away is Motte to getting game action ?

I asked myself the same thing, when I saw ERIKSSON on the first line.

 

 

 

In all seriousness though looks like they’re auditioning him for the deadline. 

Hope you have an incredible week LOUI!

Afternoon games typically disappoint... I'd love to see Demko to give Marky almost a complete week off. I feel this stretch is an opportunity for the medical staff to 'load manage' Markstrom which would serve him and the team well down the stretch and (hopefully) into the playoffs

unless marky requests it

i do not think it wise

to sit a goalie after he got a shut out

i think he has earned the next start

I'm assuming that list of names is part of the list of players the twins played with? I'd love to see the rest of it, only seems to go down to K.

Speech gave me chills. I've watched it 2-3 times since. 

[Jaimito]

Attending my last game of this season.  Hope for another W to end the Sedin Week on a high.

Kesler's were my moments, he was my fave in that era with Burrows second!

[DownUndaCanuck]

We've played disgustingly defensively of late so hopefully this is a good chance to tighten things up. The Ducks defence is pitiful so hopefully we can defend with a strong attack in this one and some of our guys can rack some points up.

 

6-1 Canucks win

[ForestFalcon]

While I know the Ducks aren't doing so well right now, in the past, games with them have often been pretty tight, just the kind of game where the Ducks could sneak out with the win. Just watch out, particularly for Silfverberg, he's consistently their most dangerous player when we go against them. But if we get lucky, maybe the team can pile some goals and put this one out of sight.

Damn 11 pm game, have to get up at 5 am so i wanted The regular 4am start....
