Demko has been insane most of the year... but he’s been facing 40shots lots of high quality chances all year. There’s a reason lots of pundits say he’s a top 5 in the league. I feel that Scotty Showtime will have the D and Pk playing better, resulting in much better results for Demko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just compare his facial expression and that of Brock’s. I am worried that there might be something horrible going on with EP40 Nah.... I think he is more embarrassed that he is part of the team, that got Benning, the GM that drafted him and made his dream come through, sacked... That is being classy... The easy way out would be hanging Benning and Green out to dry, but he didn't... Petey is all Class... Good on him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxS3E3DI2N2SxX Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 watching the post game interview with BB i couldn't help but think , man this guy is refreshing to listen to. he has tons of personality knows what he wants talks the game well funny bottom line I wasn't checking out when he spoke I was engaged. that feeling of Canucks hockey is back and hasn't been there since after game 1 of the season. I sure hope this shot in the arm is the cure that ails them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Kneel Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 3 hours ago, N4ZZY said: Just curious, but how is Boudreau’s coaching, even tonight, different from that of Green’s? Well if you watched the game, you'd have to appreciate the improved pk, the increased intensity of the forecheck, the change of personel on the pp. They played with more energy and more confidence. Hell, even Lammiko scored. Lammiko almost had 2 goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KingRaj91 Posted December 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2021 Did anyone else also notice that we played more of a puck possession game, rather than a dump and chase game? It was actually really fun to watch. 6 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was actually really fun to watch. We were already top 5 in puck possession. I don't know if I saw more of that, wonder what the stats show. Everything seemed more crisp and aggressive to me and the PK wasn't hot garbage., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dazzle Posted December 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2021 1 hour ago, brownky said: So I missed some excitement having to go to bed early. Watched the condensed game on youtube… what a complete effort. The Lammy goal was a direct result of a HIT ON THE FORECHECK by Chaisson. Good things come when you do what it takes to get the puck back. Other team isnt going to give it to you very often, so go take it. I love the aggressive style of play particularly with a rock like Demko back there. Garland is magic as always, Bo’s engine started really working in the closing half if the game it seems after a somewhat slow start. Obviously not EVERY game will go this way but… man what a nice start. Especially at the end the guys all looked so happy… not just for winning but for each other. Goals from guys on long no-scoring streaks and the look of relief/happiness was immense. I’m still in paradise and I posted it in the GDT but my rainbow pic is coming out again because thats how it feels. GCG! Kind of weird but Chiasson didn't fit in Green's system, even though Green also overplayed him a lot. Green really reminds me of a WD, without the awesome first season. In hindsight, Green's coaching was the reason (at first glance) why this team became stale. The awful dump and chases, the poor strategy to reduce shot outputs, poor communication on how to maximize or improved players. Green looked like an AHL coach this season when he actually had good players. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m much more active and excited about hockey when there’s a chance for that. Like it was noted competitive teams lose players every year to free agency. Cherry picking Markstrom makes zero sense. There’s lots of finger pointing to go around but that ain’t one of them. There isn’t a GM that would do that at that point in the season. Also Thatcher was a rookie that season. This has been discussed frequently, and you are spot on.... If Demko had shat the bed during the playoffs, or had an injury and couldn't play, that may even have tried to sneak Demko through the expansion draft, and kept Marky as well... I don't see that as a mistake neither... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassbs Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I’m just happy we don’t have to sit through another post green interview hearing him say “they’ve got a good team over there, we win 9/10 games playing the way we did tonight, or I felt our guys played great” 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alucard Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 New era, new ideas, Benning simply was not the man and he had enough time, he was not the worst GM in the nhl but was not the top and nucks deserve the top. long way to go, a lot of things to be built. have fun.

I still think this team could use a tweak here and there. Boston will be the biggest game of the year for us so far. Huge test. Opportunity to bury some demons. Time to squash the little ball of hate. We will beat the bad news bears. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
