How 'far' has it gone?

 

If a kid out performs a vet. They play. It's really not that complicated. It's happened here loads of times under Benning and Green (contrary to all the whinging to the contrary). They're littered throughout our roster (with more coming).

Its getting some of the young players into the lineup consistently to show that they can be better than the vets that has been a problem.

What I like about Lind, he plays in the right places. Good shooting positions. 

To bad he plays with Sutter and Motte who don’t know what that means.

I think Hughes' ice-time has been poorly managed. He's playing more than he should and the mistakes are showing as a result of that.

Edler out didn't help. He can't stay on ice.

Hughes has all the skills to be a top 6 forward ....... which he should be.  He's a crappy defenseman

I'm looking to scold somebody tonight. Don't be my victim.

Quinn needs to be taught not to hold on to the puck too long and make quicker decisions. There's no doubt he's talented, but it needs to be used properly with good decision making.

Comments like this make me wish we never even got Quinn Hughes. He’s 21 freaking years old. You guys deserve nothing

Feels like QH is always trying to do something on every shift.  And its biting him in the arse every time.

it's one of the things he'll probably acquire with time - not trying to force and cheat the game all the time. 

on the other hand don't want to rein him in too much - it's great to have a guy that's always looking to push the pace.  Actually great to have two guys back there like this - Schmidt is also an excellent transition guy - always moves the puck as quickly as possible - bites him in the ass sometimes too, but wouldn't change it.

Is Hughes that questionable defensively or is this another example of the BumGarderner effect?

The latter.

And Green will bench him for not following the team's offensive protocol.

It's was more of a general observation than looking at a specific play. I think he's getting burnt out, especially after the COVID outbreak and with the condensed schedule.

Toronto idea of a forecheck: dump in the puck, send in forwards skating in fast to pressure D, turnover the puck and make the Nucks struggle in their own end. Canucks idea of a forecheck: dump in the puck, send in two guys skating slowly who watch the leafs skate out past the fore checkers standing still on the circles, watch puck and the backsides of D advancing into the Canuck zone.
