I'm keeping a close eye on what the forwards are doing.  So far great decision making and a commitment to skating back hard to support.  

 

Maybe a practice and better schedule is what they needed?  Can't believe this is the Canucks I'm watching right now.

In previous games we'd try to apply pressure at the red line but the other team would build too much speed at that point the Dmen kept having trouble.

 

This forechecks prevents that sort of speed from being built. It engages the forwards way more too.

 

Overall good changes. Give credit where it's due to Greener and co. Need to show consistency though then my faith will be restored.

24 shots with only 1 goal to show for it.....just not fair....but they are hanging in there....keep it up boys!!

Crap, bounce

[Squamfan]

Hey Franesco you Fired Mark Donnelly for being a anti masker now fire John Weisbrod for being anti masker

 

[-DLC-]

Bounces starting to go our way too...result of us skating harder and them reaching (and grabbing).

Even if the Canucks lose tonight, I’m glad they showed up. 

We do not need moral victory.

Green mentioned that a practice can help the team get out of rut. I wonder if that might have helped.

This is night and day man, night and day

Actually, he blocked a shot with his hand.

Damn Hoagy plays way bigger than his size.

The problem is Jake has trouble reading the playing and/or reacting to it.

 

Edit - I'm looking forward to Jake being traded but that probably won't happen

that's nonsense though.  168 takeaways don't come from being unable to read or react to the play.

Or anticipating anything.

Damn I wish JT Miller would tutor/coach him. 

 

I believe he did/tried last season

Can’t really ask for more. As sad as that sounds. Canucks are playing like men though.

Love it!   Let's go boys...they're sloppy and lazy tonight.

Time to capitalize

I feel like our guys are starting to be conditioned to this schedule and the Leafs (and other teams) are just going to really start tasting it.  

 

Can't be easy.  But they're finding the will (and their legs) tonight and the Leafs are frustrated, pissy and lazy.

This is going to be exhausting for the Laffs considering they only ice 2 NHL defensemen.  Muzzin and Brodie are getting gassed.
