wai_lai416 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 lol so none of the top 3 centers are playing.. the only 2 good capable defenceman ain't playing.. both starting goalie and backup ain't playing.. vs pretty much edmonton's A lineup.. will we see a double digit blowout? who the hell do we even have playing center.. dickinson lazar dowling aman/dries? canucks doesn't seem to value preseason building chemistry at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I'm starting to get the sense that Bruce doesn't care about pre-season wins and losses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe these game rosters change later, but I doubt ii. The only thing I can think of is a tremendous fear of more injuries to regulars. Guess I just don't understand the reasoning. Regular season draws near. Maybe that's it (fear of injuries), and also maybe they have such high confidence in the big guns, that they trust they'll be ready for a Game 1 victory. JR/PA/BB are all new in VAN to start the season. JR/PA don't have Crosby and Malkin to rely on. Bruce doesn't have Ovechkin and Backstrom. Lot pf pressure on Petey, for a guy who isn't practicing in game situations. They'll learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll learn a lot about the guys playing tonight, e.g., like how they handle adversity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Will Dickinson win even one faceoff against McDavid? For a player who's probably struggling with his confidence....putting him up against the best player in the world is an interesting tactic.

Jester13 Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 2 hours ago, tas said: her role was apparently converting analytics into more digestible terms for the coaching staff. I'm guessing she either couldn't do that adequately or it was discovered the role just wasn't needed because it's not like explaining rocket science to 5 year olds. Isn't the rumour that JR released the ACL Mikheyev rumour on purpose to snuff out the mole who had been giving information to the press and it was her? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
