It’s a hockey forum on draft weekend, we are all mostly half cut, so chill man, this is as close to a sports bar outing that many of us have had in a long time. It’s only a game until someone ruins it by pointing fingers… I know, I have phat ones. I don't like people misrepresenting what I say. Why didn't you quote the other poster and tell him to "chill"? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus maybe by sharing the minutes QHs 5x5 play will get better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you said so far, especially about OEL. I'm very optimistic about the anticipated upswing of him. He's finally someone we can use, whereas Loui was just dead cap. I'm also anticipating huge offence from our top 9. It's so good on paper, honestly. Whether or not it translates, we'll have to see. Based on everyone having a healthy season, with good coaching from ppl like Shaw, I can see a resurgence for us. Not to mention, Seattle is constructed quite poorly, so I anticipate they'll finish at the bottom of our division, so we will be improving our playoff chances. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Luongo helped too though. Murzyn had some stellar seasons too. Tanev was pretty good when he played, but he was far from the best defensive defenseman we've ever had.

Having a normal schedule with the same practice time as all the other teams should help as well. I'm very optimistic for next season. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ^^^ Try telling Horvat and Miller and the whole team that “Sorry next season is a right off while we wait for these contracts to expire”. BS We have a #1 Goalie. D looks way better quarterbacked by Hughes and OEL. We have a first line center. Second line center. And wingers for both. This team is in the win now mode. Pumped for next season. Go Nucks. 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Not sure if folks remember this. But last year, Hughes looked gassed halfway into the season. It's not fair putting a young player into the #1 role. He'd be at the bench just gasping for air. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well of missed the playoffs. And last year they only managed 1 win against the 12th place Western Conference team. So lost 7 of their last 8 playoff games, but yeah, they're doing just fine.

Holy F, I jumped in my DeLorean and checked out that website. I got worried that I would have to wait for a lighting strike to hit the town clock before I got to come back to CDC in the year 2021. Their hockey insight is about as up to date. We're gonna mop the floor with Cal for years to come. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
