Could Hoglander be the next Bure like thing in Vancouver.... Bure was an exciting player to watch, Hoglander is looking like an exciting player to watch as well.... Wait until Hoglander pulls the behind the net goal  maybe it happens tonight 

That's a lofty comparison! I'll take another alien, thank you!

Bieksa broke that down.

Granted he hasn't played all that well for us yet, but he was really playing well when he was in Vegas.  At least what I saw of him.  But it can't just be me because he was one of the leaders of a good team in ice time.  I don't think it's a case of that Vegas were wanting to get rid of him.  More like they couldn't afford to keep him.  I'm going to give him a bit of a pass until he adjusts to a new team.  I'm still expecting big things from him once he gets his legs under him.  Go Canucks Go!

He seems much better on his offside which was commen knowledge. Not sure why they insist on him and Myers together, they don't look good together.

We need dmen that think the game like hoglander. He knows how to create space and where his teammate are going to be. Currently you can tell they look up and spend that second thinking what to do, and in that amount of time the opposition already is in that spot/ lane. All it ever results in is a turnover.

hrudy commenting on goaltending...don't remember him being much of a goaltender...why is it that the mediocre ones think they know what they are talking about.

Bieksa is Gretz  on the game analysis

There'll never be another Bure.

[Smashian Kassian]

In fairness to us, Winnipeg is the most aggressive team we've played with how they pressure the breakout. Hopefully the coaching staff will have some helpful adjustments for the 2nd.

Good points  Cassie. 

[J-23]

Another clean hit.

 

Montreal fans keep crying.

From a coaching perspective, this is our best period defensively all season from the aspect of player coverage. The only reason why it sucked is because we had a boatload of unforced turnovers from the back end. You clear that up and they lose half of their shots. 

 

Stat wise, defense looked horrible, but it's a huge improvement from 5 games ago. Absolutely huge. Demko had one, maybe two difficult saves (one ultimately led to a goal) and that was off a bad faceoff setup but overall Winnepeg is playing well offensively and we are stifling their good chances. 

 

Coverage is a million times better. 

[oldnews]

Why do people think Mete would help this team?

 

[Smashian Kassian]

Burke is so right about the bear hug.

 

This is something Cherry was on about years ago, I thought we had already gotten the point - apparently not. 

[Raspberries]

Go Burkie!

Another Montreal player gets caught not looking which way his body is travelling.

That's basically Connor McDavid lol. That's as close as we've gotten since.
