Maybe Tanner Pearson on the fourth line might wake him up a little too. Motte and the 4th line seem to get way more chances then they have any business getting - Beagle has no finish but Motte does. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly is Pearson offering right now to be in the position he's in? contract? name value? i really don't know. Motte is younger, but is playing hungrier than anyone on the team right now to be brutally honest. only guy who's leading by example is, the guy you'd be expecting to; Bo and maybe Miller Edited January 23, 2021 by Twilight Sparkle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's so valuable to TG that it's probably tough to take him off his defensive duties and move him up, but i hope he does anyways as he's earned it. Not a first rounder - but sure is playing like one, and one who wants to get a better contract next time. Best at takeaways in the league last year in the playoffs ... aside from Demko the only bright light against Vegas, and he's got the hands to make crazy hand eye moves to get the puck back - i'm sure he also has the hands to score goals. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see Hogs and Motte who both play the puck hard together and Bo being that anchor really dont like playing "armchair" but i've given this SOME thought with how this season is going >_< this season is just working with what you have. i also understand by moving roussel to the 4th line thats like the most expensive 4th line in the nhl but, gotta do what you gotta do Edited January 23, 2021 by Twilight Sparkle 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Bo Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I think this is going to be a dogfight, but my gut tells me that the Canucks will come out on top. I suspect they fall back to a neutral zone trap style of a game, if not, they should. More effort should go into stopping Montreal from scoring, then trying to score ourselves, we cannot win in a run & gun style of game at the moment the way this squad is. Boring Hockey to watch, but you have to stop the bleeding first, before you can deal with the wound. And continually shell shocking our Goaltenders just contributes to the problem. The forwards will have to become more defensive in their game, and I would not be surprised to see LE make his way into the lineup, if not, he should be there. He may not have his scoring touch anymore, which he tends to get beat up on, but no one can deny he is still a good defensive forward. As strange as this is to say, right now, little things do count, and LE should be in the line up. We are already overpaying a couple of Defensemen for not doing their jobs, LE can't do anymore damage that has already been done. He is getting paid no matter what, might as well make use of him. Put him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck2288 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I am ok with a total house cleaning Green and his coaching staff are in way over their heads. i love how our team has drafted, excluding Jake and OJ but the signings part has been very damaging lets clean house and get things on course before we blow this window 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck2288 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Green refuses to: -mix lines - take Pearson off the top 6 - change our static penalty kill - take timeouts - have a pulse during games - take responsibility personally guy has won nothing as a head coach...ever yet people think he is the guy? get ready for another tire fire tonight montreal will be physical and Green does not know what that word means Edited January 23, 2021 by canuck2288 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekker Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Allright, on a side note, I give up. I'm trying to find a printer friendly game schedule for the Canucks. Anyone have a link to one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrwipeout Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Well ill be working but if they pull this one off its a bit of a miracle considering half our D is gone and the top players confidence is at the bottom. Only consistant plaer so far is Bo. More ppl needs to take more responsibility and bring their A-game. im the only one missing Marky a lot? well.....hoping for an effort showing they dont wanna just roll over and die....FIGHT for it.....focus.....and play for eachother. U need to make something special with what we have now. Lets do it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracksuit Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I sense another defensive struggle for a team that doesn’t seem to know how to play defence. pk ranks 26th might be good to not take stupid penalties (Myers) most goals allowed league wide and I’m betting shots too. averaging 40 per night. Another long night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yes we can nucks Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 What's with all the pessimism here? Yeah, our D is Depleted. But who knows, our young'uns could step up and play out of their minds. And all four lines are gonna have to OFFEND and outscore the Habs. Every forward scores one and we win 12-11. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHTyrany Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Need to remove the smell from last game. I predict puck love this game so the boys will come out on top despite giving up too many chances. Any new on the Myers hit, what's the result from the league review? I thought it was a questionable major. The clip suggested to me it was not head hunting. The Nucks have received countless hits like this without a penalty called. The inconsistency continues to ruin the NHL product. Give the officials more independence from NHL management and clean up the NHL image.
