Guy has been all over the ice the last like 5 games. I can understand disliking some of his turnovers, but if you watch him closely he has been super aggressive at mostly the right times the last 5 games or so. He's been physical, great for possession because he's not allowing the team out of their own end, standing up at the blue, etc. I think he's played great lately personally. He's made 2 mistakes in the last like 5 games. People hone in on those and blindly ignore all of the good plays that the details guys thoroughly enjoy seeing. I don't understand how you can think he's been invisible though. Do you watch the games or stare at your phone like my lady does? 3 5 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of his game looks like Quinn Hughes when he's in the offensive zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you? The guys still an NHL caliber player. Deal with it. Love how this place is full of egotistic whiners. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB did say he sees at least 7 ptopects coming onto the team over the next couple years. Maybe, with keeping our current UFAs and RFAs, we need to have several guys on ELC’s to stay under the cap?

WHL rocks Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 54 minutes ago, MikeyD said: I think you're a dreamer lol. He's never been as good defensively as we rate him. Never had the tenacity of a Kesler, never had the deception of Datsyuk, has never had elite pickpocket ing skills, never has been an agitator... I really don't know what qualities he has that'd classify as a selke nominee. He's not even the best defensive forward on the team. The only shining quality he has that elevates him to that status is his faceoff ability. Every few games he abandons a player that leads to a goal. Not gonna see Bergeron do that anytime soon. He was however much better the past 2 years defensively. He's having an off year in my books defensively. Used to be a lot stronger along the walls and be more tenacious. Never been elite, but he was much better. A couple games ago we saw that tenaciousness (I think against Boston?). Defensive players I really gravitate toward. The heart and soul guys like Motte and Miller. I haven't been impressed with Bo this year at all even with his decent stats. Not the team driver that he used to be. Could be due to his linemates though. Can't deny his playing ability when there's an empty net on the other end though! you spent all this time writing all this in response to two lines, you should have saved yourself the time and just read my two lines. I said in two years...... When he's in his prime. And i didn't say he would win, I said nominee... He's playing shutdown against other teams' top players every night... He's good but in cpl years he'll be in his prime and a selke nominee. BTW I didn't waste my time reading ... didn't get past Datsyuk..lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can handle the pace of the NHL, he could be a really good player for us. I’m getting Rathbone and Rafferty mixed up again Alf, thanks for making me aware of that. so my earlier comparison was Rathbone with Hughes. Not a Rafferty.

Im thinking Ryan Miller, Luongo, Craig Anderson , Roy, Hasek, Brodeur... didn’t most of them play well into their late 30s? Yeah mid 30's anyways seems like a safe bet.

Nucker 67 Posted March 8, 2020 Share Posted March 8, 2020 Nice win, and the losing streak is over. Fast paced and physical, what the playoffs will be all about. Would've been nice to see Hughes get a point, but the win is what matters most. Demko played a good game. There was a play where Horvat was side-swiped (almost leg on leg), and he never confronted the other player. He just skated away (in Edler fashion) while other Canucks stepped in. Why does Bo avoid confrontation? Tanev has been a beast lately, he's having a great year. Anyway, good win. I feel good about a payback win against CBJ tomorrow night as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought that about Horvat at first, but I realized if he stepped in and fought the guy he would have been out for 5 and our fourth line would have had to stop MacKinnon and his line. Horvats line did a great job last night. and he doesn't always avoid confrontation. Edler and Myers have also stepped up their game 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
