Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Although impressed with the play of Petterssen he maybe a better fit on the wing . His faceoff % is below 20% If Gaudette proves to be an NHL ready center a line of Petterssen and Virtanen with Gaudette at center might work out as a mobern version of the West Coast Express. Seems like Green likes h...

You know whats really scary, aside from Elias there hasn't been one prospect who is trumpeted as a future piece that looks ready... b That’s not a surprise to me. We all get hyped but it’s pre-season :eh: You can see the potential but the kids are still green. I think Gaudette could make the jump I...

Another point for Petterson. He comes as advertised.

Motte and Leipsic Wouk start game 1 and Virtanen will sit Both Leipsic and Motte have played well this pre-season. They’ve been consistent and hard to play against. Both have played good 200’ games. But I still think Motte’s waiver status may work against him, at least initially. Gagne has done not...

Demko has not played with confidence this pre-season.

Eli!!!

That was a very nice PP goal by the Flames.

So when ownership tells Gilllis to hire Torterella cause he’s Italian that’s normal? Never heard that before... Assuming that its accurate, the context that the team was too laissez faire and needed a kick in the rear from a fiery coach like Torts would make sense... I welcomed the move at the time...

There is going to be a big turn over in the Flames ownership over the next few years. Most of them are in their 80s.

Anyone else find themselves bored as fuck with all 3 of these games?

Ya, we get hyped to see the kids but it is preseason.

Dahlen isn’t ready. He hasn’t outplayed Leipsic, Motte,Goldobin or Virtanen. He has to beat out 2-3 of those guys to have a realistic chance of sticking. I don’t think he’s a better choice over Gagne or Gaunce either, not for the roles they’d be expected to play anyway. He needs Utica time. I’m real...

Could we go 0-82?

Bo knows!

Gudbranson and Del Zotto brought the piss and vinegar tonight.
