[GDT] Canucks @ Golden Knights -SUN AUG 23 7:30PM PACIFIC - NBCSN, CBC, SN, TVAS

[Gnarcore]

It is an absolute farce an expansion team was allowed to build such a team so quickly. In soooo many ways the NHL is a joke league.

Vegas is just playing the way we played last game. That's it. 

 

The Canucks are capable of playing the exact same way, they just need somebody to be a catalyst. Also we can't be affording to allow them momentum. Green needed a timeout after goal 2. We had 25 minutes of terrible play. At this point you need to wake the team up. 

 

They've got heads on pillows. 

They're rattled.

Vegas has way heavier puck pressure than the Blues.

Kids are scrambling and out of sorts.

It's ok.

Vegas is a very good team.

 

I think we'll see them get their feet moving and make some clean passes in the 3rd. Theyll adjust

Big question is do you go with Demko next game or do you ride the hot hand with Marky.. tough decisions ahead

Sad Huggy is hard to watch.

This series is a learning experience.  The blues series was too with a tangible learned result.   But this team is hungrier than the blues.   Another level up.

[Sedinyoureyesontheprize]

Not even worried the boys always step up.

BS man

 

We need bigger meaner D men...not a new coach.  You can bring in Prime Scottie Bowman or Al Arbour and they would have trouble containing Vegas with our D core.

DeBoer didn’t change his roster in Vegas 

 

I agree the size is impacting us but we had zero defensive structure all year when Marky saved us ... and we had size in the lineup defensively then

 

it does not matter how big we are on d, when we are cluelessly skating around it won’t help

Burke a real one

what did he say?

 

i didn't want to listen to the intermission in a 4-0 game 

[xereau]

The big knock on Markstrom before, and after we got him:  too much movement in the crease.

Saw that tonight. He needs a reset.

Whatever, I like Ryan Reeves. 
Shoulda been a Canuck. 

He's been available a couple times as a ufa at @ 2 M

Loui needs to be scratched for the rest of his contract. Guy provides nothing.

You can tell who the true fans are, right Deb?

give up on the team/series after two periods. 

They all flit in/out but never stick around.  

 

It's revealing.

 

It's fine to be down.  To think Vegas is a great/tough team.  

 

But don't come here to slam this one.  Wrong place.

[Caknuckle Puck]

Put Demko In, let marky rest

Yeah, it was 9-4. Tyler Wong had a hat-trick that game and never played an regular season NHL game since then.

Ahh yes. Didn’t he end up in Europe?

Nope.  Right back to Marky

[Disgruntler]

Boys be great. Vegas is the great swindle team of the last decade, so whatevs. We're getting swept, and there's no shame in it. Let's just get out with no injuries.

Expected a slow start, Canucks look and are tired.

Expects a better game next time.
