Lol. Thank goodness!!! That name would have been a disaster in NHL!! Worse than having 'Mighty' in front of the Ducks!!

Seattle Sleepless. Logo is Tom Hanks. As a zombie.

When the fuck did y'all see eriksson on the ice??? I watched the whole game(i thought) and seriously never saw the guy once... https://media.giphy.com/media/JmJ32sRAKhIxBsb2TF/giphy.gif Maybe his haircut threw you off... They gave him an assist on that goal and later took it away. 8-) He made the p...

He’s back. g_gjiU-hg4M :shock: Too coincidental. I don't believe it.. It was tonight.. A-m8Fd93faw These are both outstanding goals. But Hoglander's is particularly impressive because his is dodging a stick check. It almost looks like Svechnikov thought it and did it and Hoglander thought it while ...

By the quarter season mark, Loui 's salary will have been $250k, by that point I think the NHL would allow a mutual termination. I've always thought that was the likeliest outcome in light of Loui's contract structure. Great outcome for the Canucks, but why would the league allow that and what woul...

So next up is the Red Wings. Another speedy tight checking team to stiffle the offence... Sure hope the crew forgets how to suck like that last period and/or it was as you wankers say and just dead legs Seems like some of the team and associated media are spinning it off as dead legs in the 3rd.......

When does the goalie controversy thread start? Canucks managed to hang with the Blues. Blues simply leaned on Elias for much of the night knowing he's still not strong enough. He broke free a few times though. Horvat needs wingman, could 21 draw back in? Sutter and Beagle lines do the heavy lifting...

So like ya, who scored? Who got assists. How was the pk, pp. game recap?!?!? It’s sad I have to go to another hockey site to get this information! PP was awful. Zone entries were terrible, with the first unit relying on “hero” entries and the second dumping it in without regard for whether a player...

Morrison couldn't win a faceoff if his life depended on it. Bertuzzi - no fucking way, let him sulk at the end of the bench. Naslund's jersey should have a noose around it to signify the choke. So, how do you really feel about the WCE? Seriously, don't hold back! They had a year and a half dominant...

Leivo is the worst player on this team. If it works cap-wise I would be demoting him and recalling Baertschi as soon as the latter starts to show he's physically ready to engage. They are both on a 1-way deal, so the "buried" rule applies. The Canucks are saving $1.075 million in cap space off Baes...

Excellent game overall. Observations: * The Red Wings aren't good. One strong young line, a few unmovable vets, a poor defensive group overall, and average goaltending. Particularly noticeable was the poor passing coming out of the zone. Seems like the Canucks lived that movie pretty recently.... Th...

Pettersson's been doing pretty well, too. His shot is off; the chances are there, so is the puck control and possession game. He will have a 3 point game in the next three games and everyone will forget about a slow start.

Fixed.

Wonder if that hit on Boeser is still affecting him? Boeser is not finding lanes to unleash his shot. He will. His one on one battle game is very good. His defensive game looks better than I've ever seen it. Honestly, for a guy who basically missed camp, he's on track. Pettersson's been doing prett...

Gotta love Drew Doughty "We shouldn't be losing 8-2 to a team like that" :lol: At least that quote acknowledges the LA Kings should lose to some teams 8-2. Objectively, they aren't a good team. Just an older version of the already too old team that wasn't good last season. And last night, the Canuc...

I don’t know if I called it here, but I figured this would be a down year for the sharks, they’re getting super old and losing pavelski is a bigger loss than the media was making it out to be. There's a lot of season to play and they can turn it around. But the signs were there. Here's what I said ...

. Tanev was a moving truck away from the play to the outside. Yes, Tanev was wide to give Sutter the option of flipping the ice to break out and then was clearly going to change. Right or wrong positioning by Tanev, ideally Hughes reads that and knows he has the center lane. I don't think he recogn...
