McEwen is soooooo effin East Coast Canadian.

 

Just awesome accent. You know his heart is a humble one.

So much potential to be key player for us.  Really hoping green doesnt screw him up

I agree with this. Especially based on his last time here. Hopefully he's adapted or accepted that he has to be physical because of his size but I honestly think he sees himself as a PMD. 

I have a feeling that this could be one of the nastiest, most difficult combination of players to play against:

 

HÖGLANDER - HORVAT - PODKOLZIN

MYERS - TRYAMKIN

DEMKO

 

Everything else on the team then, is either threatening offense, or stifling defense.

 

But those 6 together. Watch out.

 

Hopefully.

Pretty brutal period from him, with a couple of moments where I wondered what was going through his brain.  If this is how he responds to top six minutes, I'll drive him to the airport.

The biggest problem with Virtanen is that he is always given opportunities amd does nothing with them. He doesn't only not do anything with them, he looks like he could care less. He is out there for a Sunday skate most of the time. He will have the odd game and then go silent for 10 or 13 games. It's not worth it to have a player that lacks desire.

Good question ... I'd ask the same about Bubble Yum and Aqua Fresh.

He just needs to get more consistent. Probably has a full time job next year.

With the Kraken.  Mac is my pick if I were them

Hulk Big League Chew turned my teeth green for like a week.

That's because he is a PMD.

True, but Willie and the organisation didn't ... they wanted him to be a goon. 

 

He's gotta be both the PMD and the imposing, physical defenseman to fulfill expectations.

Double Bubble, Black Cat...right there with you.

It's time to score the first goal.

Growing up when attending Canuck games I got to bring a chocolate bar to the game as a treat  and that's the one I always chose.  Pretty sure I picked it because it was the one that would take me the longest to eat.

What what?

Yes to the first part...

 

Dunno if you’ve noticed Green’s work... He is building careers all over the roster.

 

Best not to talk much bud.

Drive to the net...when you don't know what to do Jake!  How many times he stops with no one around him, and loses possession

Incredibly frustrating to watch as a fan.   He'll be out of the league by 30 at this rate.

Love it but I would go with the Flow instead of Hoggy as much as I like him. 

[Disgruntler]

Is the backward pass a new thing this year?

I'd love to see that. Hopefully we have the balls to put that together.

Hot mics getting guys fired, every single metric of every player recorded in real time. We've nothing to worry about, right guys? Sports isn't the opiate of the masses, right guys?
