Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

fair enough I guess they have a good read on their players. And a few of our guys played some of their best hockey after sitting a few games. I hope this is a mistake on their part though

we make ace lineup changes while they make poor ones. works for me

I love how he opens up going side to side

How can they see this as a good move? Last game would have been 6-2 Nucks if Skinner had been in. Their back up kept them in it.

McJesus & Crysaddle will be playing horizontal all night at 5v5, I'm sure.

Have we heard they are playing Skinner? their back up was one of their best players last game!

I think it’s paramount Alvin cuts his losses on the Mikheyev experiment, trade him some how to free up the cap space to go towards retaining some of Lindholm, Zadorov and Joshua. Not sure its of "paramount" importance, but it might be the best step forward. I doubt there's a market for him at that ...

man our coaching staff just always seem to have the answer. Great lineup changes tonight. The team just took over the second and third period. The better team won.

Interesting take on Pettersson, UDub. I haven’t seen any obvious ailments when watching him behind the play, but he’s always had ridiculous hand/eye with an innate ability to knock down passes, anticipate plays and interrupt the play. He hasn’t been poor defensively, but he has not created turnover...

Cole hasn't been good but he's also been unlucky. He can't possibly be unlucky every damn game of this series...

I like moving Lindholm with Petey. lets see what happens. Blueger/Garls/Joshua were money for a long time before Lindholm showed up. If they can repeat that and Lindholm has ANY success with Petey this could be big for us.

I wonder if it’s time to reunite the lotto line. Again, assuming Pettersson is healthy, if he can’t get his mojo back playing with 9 and 6, mgmt could have a clearer picture on how to move forward in the off season. Problem with Petey is its not just his scoring thats MIA, he loses every board batt...

Biggest game of the year so far

I'm looking forward to Petey's exit interview this year. I hope it sheds some light on wtf is going on.

https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/video/is-petterssons-play off-woes-making-canucks-regret-contract-extension/ Ouch. It's absolutely ridiculous this take that he got his money so now he doesn't care about the playoffs. Canucks drafted him because he said he wanted to win multiple cups. He was MVP in pla...

Yeah, I would put him back in the line up too. Probably Podz as well. Edit: Also, hopefully F Petey is taking all the criticism in the media and fan base as motivation. Got a feeling that the real Petey will stand up tomorrow night and will have a statement game. How about Tocchet benches Mikheyev ...

Why the fuck is PK Subban allowed a microphone anyway? Dude is an irritating cock of the walk He was still capable of playing at a high level but no teams were offering him a job mainly because he is such an irritating cock I'm just glad he's paired up with Messier so you just have to turn off one ...
