Popular Post OldFaithfulCap Posted April 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) Media TV: SportsNet, Hulu+ (USA) Radio: Sportsnet 650 Overview Three games left and we're in the Tank end-game now. 3 wins and we will be watching Bedard from afar, 3 losses and we have a chance, albeit a very slim one. The major focus will be personal milestones with Pettersson 1 point away from 100 and 2 goals from 40, Kuzmenko 2 goals away from 40, JT Miller 2 goals away from matching his career high, Boeser 2 points from his career high and Quinn Hughes 1 goal away from matching his career high. We'll know the Vancouver line-up from the morning skate but usually you wouldn't expect major changes. Colin Delia is expected to start 2 of the next 3 games and will start tonight.Kravtsov broke through for his first goal in a Vancouver uniform last game so he'll stay in as will Studnicka on the lower lines. LA is riding a slump to the playoffs but they've qualified. They could manage to fall down to the 1st wild card seed as well if they slip behind the Kraken. Coach McLennan has talked about alternating goalies so we'll probably see Korpisalo tonight. We could see Alex Laferriere join the Kings line-up, he was signed from the college ranks and recorded his first professional goal against the Abbotsford Canucks last week.

johngould21 Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I just noticed the LA Kings penalty kill stat. That doesn't say long playoff run at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many fans dwell on short term success. We likely draft at #10 or #11 and will probably get a good player. What I wanted was a serious core asset that could join the core that leads us to Cup contention. That would have been #5 or higher. Hopefully we stay in the lottery and climb a few spots. It is raining, my Canucks are winning when they should be doing that in October, it's depressing. What rum do you suggest Alf? I might have to take up drinking. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForzaTikare Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 So, a 4-6 loss and 3pts for Petey would be good here right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strawbone Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 We should lose this one. As for all the games here down the stretch, I’ll be happy either way. Next season, this whole being OK with losses thing is gonna stop though! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Kneel Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 The stupidest winning streak that was. Oh well par for the course, mediocrity hugs for everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-DLC- Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Last week of Canucks hockey....let the sadness seep in. I will watch playoffs...mostly to cheer against teams, not for them. I do love the intensity and pace of playoff hockey. But damn, next year we've gotta be there. This is painful. Go Canucks Go! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jersey is so damn sharp/crisp. Last game it really stood out to me in a good way. I'm glad to hear this. (Took this pic last game...my phone camera is not good but I like this one) 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
