The Canucks had 236 PP opportunities this season - 2nd most in the league only to Colorado who get a handful more. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But with LE he may change his tune if management says your going to Utica Loui. Tell him now and he's had some warning and can consider his options. He may, it really depends what his future holds for him, but he has stated he intends to play out his contract. Since he's not going to retire I guess that would mean calling his bluff and seeing if he wants to hang on for 2 years in order to get that $4 mil in the last year. It is a lot of money when faced with the alternative, $5 mil and hockey, or $0 and no hockey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 But if he sees a future for himself in coaching, he may relish a Utica opportunity to be a playing Assistant Coach, much like Baumer was for a couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah, guess I’m just too used to how we get treated in the playoffs. Things will hopefully be different, it’s been a while.

CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 If the Canucks take anything away from the first few games of the play in series, is that structure and strong defensive play is going to win games. As much as the team had a highly entertaining and offensive high octane game, its not going to work in a tight checking post season atmosphere. They have to learn to tighten up, play more efficiently in their own zone and be patient. Canucks are too aggressive sometimes for their own good at times. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Not so sure - am watching the Hawks-Oilers game. And fast as Oilers are, Hawks are skating like the wind and relentlessly forechecking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PhillipBlunt Posted August 1, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2020 The Canucks need Horvat, Ferland, Miller, Virtanen, Roussel, Beagle, Myers, and Edler to set the physical tone for the series in Vancouver’s favor. Be the aggressor this time and give room for Petterson, Boeser, and Hughes to work their magic. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 The oilers are a joke. McDingle and Drysight will be asking for trades soon enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they’ll be willing to take Brandon Sutter off our hands in the offseason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarM Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Lots of talk of who is staying and who is going on the team. The next couple of games will dictate who the keepers are and who will move on. Don't care how a player plays in the regular season and I really don't care how they did in an exhibition game. We had our fair share of "Regular season" players the last while and I want to see who wants to "step up" when it REALLY MATTERS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odd. Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) We need to be prepared right out the gate. No more slow starts, always been an issue with us. 1st period of the Winnipeg game was an excellent period, lets replicate that. Every little thing counts from here on out. Ferland and Roussel, you're up. Time to show us the reason why we got you. Edited August 1, 2020 by Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
