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. I don’t think Little Things will be in the lineup...I agree with the rest though.

Qwags Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Any word on a potential starting lineup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 My guess: Miller - Pettersson - Boeser Pearson - Horvat - Toffoli Roussel - Sutter - Virtanen Ferland - Beagle - Eriksson (Motte) OUT - Gaudette, MacEwen, Graovac, Bailey 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck2288 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I don’t understand why they play the “visiting” team goal song? Makes no sense. They should try to recreate the game for the “home” team small point but makes no sense to me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spliced Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Hopefully the boys are watching these games and seeing how intense they are. Don't expect anything less than playoff style hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afan Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Virtanen provides the most goals for the 3rd line and 2nd unit PP. He is big, fast, can forecheck and has that intimidating hard and accurate shot. Team is more exciting to watch with Virtanen in the lineup. Hate to see TG prefers to play games with this important player in the qualifying round. The Canucks 3rd and 4th lines are punchless without Virtanen. They will be outmatched. The Wild is a very good defensive team. All they have to do is to shut down the Nucks top two lines and they will win this series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soilers were diving at their regular level. They're not a legitimate NHL team, so it's unfair to say they were in playoff form, but they sure as hell weren't holding back on the acting.

Nuxfanabroad Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Are they counting these individual player points(play-in rd) for each player's career Playoff pts?! Hope not..that's bogus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an important early Dec game, I recall this clearly. We all bash LouiE, but Nurse dove on his bump SOOOO egregiously..led to a PP that decided the tainted game. I legitimately felt bad for Bro LouiE at that moment. It was that bad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that game next to a couple of obnoxious Oilers fans. That was the worst dive, but their entire team was flopping at every opportunity. Believe me, I was yelling at Nurse for the whole game after that. Edited August 1, 2020 by King Heffy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal horn, banners over the empty seats, heck even make the silly fake crowd noise biased towards the 'home' team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
