Other young players ride the pine when they aren't playing well.  Shouldnt that standard apply to Petey as well?

Right now? No, it's ridiculous.

[brownky]

Petey has been caught offside way too much. I saw two last game where he was dragging ass getting out of the zone, and again this time.

 

Even if you can't rejoin the play, get out of the zone and let your guys get in.

 

I wonder if he's just absolutely exhausted for some reason? It would stand to reason why he can't make the plays.

Why not try Hogs with Petey to see if there is any Swedish chemistry

[Jaimito]

Too much gap between D and forwards. Habs are picking off everything. 

[MikeyD]

Oh my &^@#, imagine Hogs, Mac and Podz together. That forecheck would be nasty and would have lots of skill with it too.

I mean he’s not going to go 56 games without a goal, he’ll break out of his slump eventually. Just let him catch one break and the flood gates will open.

People say that kind of thing, but it almost never happens.  What's going on with him right now isn't a "not getting the breaks" kind of thing.  He's ineffective in every zone right now

The reality is Pearson is not a second line player either. He should be third tops. Its all we have though.

Miller with Bowie and Jake would be nasty

 

edit: obvs BB stays with Pete. Could be an interesting top 6 lineup

Honestly Eddie got lucky not to take a penalty there.

Almost every team in the NHL implements weak side sag smh

Didn't we say that last year?

If the Nucks responded to Perry’s antics we’d be killing a 7 minute 5 on 3. They’ve been conditioned into submission.

My point exactly

Hitting machines today

Edmundson. Myers was there for a hugfest. Edmundson threw everything he could but only landed one really good shot. 

I just saw the fight, Myers couldn't get his arm lose. Edmonton had the death grip on his arm lol

[PhillipBlunt]

I’ve had more fun peeling the membrane off the back ribs I’m cooking than I’ve had watching the garbage coaching in the Canucks d-zone.
