Taphouse Canuck Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 8 minutes ago, N4ZZY said: Man, I am worried about that PK. It's now dead last in the league isn't it? And while the PP had a resurgence of sorts last game, it's hard to tell whether it's "back" or still on life support. But the team can't afford to take penalties tonight, because from a fan's perspective, there's almost zero confidence that they can kill it off. I wonder if that's starting to cast doubt on the players themselves on whether they'll be scored on if they're on the PK. I hope not. True. Every time they are on the PK I can see a goal coming, if it were not for Demko we'd be in the doggy do. They are just way too static, reacting to puck movement instead of being proactive and making life difficult for the PP team. We just seem to let them get set up and then rely on shot blocking. Oh, and when you get a chance, get that fxxxxxx puck out of there. Don't pass to your team mate and give him the job. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another game day, another chance to smoke some Duck. Another chance for our backup goalie to show what he's got. I notice a lot fewer Negative Nellies chanting "Fire Green" in this pregame discussion than last. The bandwagon is filling up but there's still lots of room. Lots of little improvements leads to great performances, the PK is getting better. Take fewer penalties, and keep the PK troops fresh, it's a team effort. GO BO GO!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope they can kill some of those penalties that are inevitably coming our way. Move you feet guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if he had played against the Stars he would have held Faksa to account for that knee on Podz. As it was, we were lucky that he was able to shake off the injury. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I've heard he's above BumG, King, other guy in the coaching hierachy, but reports to Green, and advises him as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rychicken Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 31 minutes ago, Gawdzukes said: You have the right to your opinion but I think it's obvious that some of you guys haven't actually played hockey or sports competitively. One of the greatest things about sport is your constant evolution as a player and a team, especially turning it around after a slump. That's what it's all about, correcting mistakes and getting better as a team. This is like people writing off the team 3 days ago and now we're 2 wins away from being a top 10 team. Complete snap judgements. Some people have hard time understanding you won't always be in first place I guess. The NHL is very fluid and the landscape changes radically during the year. Fans are doing a disservice to players like Dickinson, and the team in general by making these proclamations at this point of the season, and 12 games into Dickinson's tenure. I sure wouldn't want to be your teammate if that's how you welcome a new player to the team. I guess we'll all be on Dickinson watch now tonight. The pitchforks are out. oh, how dare anyone critique a player... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though Canucks really lost a decent two way center when Chubbie left for Russia (during the lockout I think) and never came back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
