Communication. Who was calling out to let Pouliot know he had 3 Dogs coming? Night before it was miscommunication with Markstrom.
How many times was the lil trojan walked around? Cue Howie Meeker "like a hoop around a barrel".
Would have liked to see Jake moved into BROCKEY_HOCKEY's spot on the 1st unit PP.

Re: Canucks @ Coyotes 7 pm. SNP
Doesn't matter how many Coyotes were bearing down on him. Pouliot basically lost control of the puck all on his own and then desperately reached to try to tip it out of the zone, taking himself out of the play.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 9:40 amLmao ...”hey Derrick there are three guys right in front of you”Topper wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 6:59 am Is the Lepsic family related to the Strome family?

Mason Raymond was a top 6 forward on the best team in the league and didn't look out of place. At all.CrzyCanuck wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 9:12 pmI've moved on from him since the end of last season lol
The guy is like a weak version of Raymond, or Peter Schaefer, or Jordan Shroeder
He was a good pick pocket and during his peak provided value even when he wasn't scoring. He had a good game in transition both attacking and defending.
His name does not belong in this list.
But Raymond was never the same after the hit in SCF game 6. Sad!

MDZ was the third best defenseman on this team last year. They've all got warts, some very ugly. MDZ is the only one who also possesses some skill in all areas. MDZ makes mistakes, and a lot of them, but they are not the same mistake over and over...Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 9:41 pm Del Zotto should have no trouble sticking in this lineup. I counted two guys back there who looked far shittier than he did tonight. Pouliott and Biega both looked the shits.
Yeah a lot of these guys are getting ample ice time and doing fuck all with it. I liked Gaudette and Archibald out of the fringe guys. Virtanen needs to bring more.

It was worse than that. He then tried to play the puck while prone, ultimately putting it on the tee for an odd man rush. If he lets it go, it might have been recovered by a Canuck and likely would not have been worse than a clear. I get it, instincts at play, but it was a bad decision after a tumble.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Fri Oct 26, 2018 6:45 amThere wasn’t anything wrong with Goldobin’s pass.

With Goldy there’s the good and bad but more importantly with players like that you have to cultivate his risky game cause that is his strong suit. I’m hoping as time goes on he gains wisdom whereby the stupid gambles are fewer between.Hockey Widow wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 9:15 pm Goldobin makes some real stupid passes whe he’s pressured.

Game Analysis:
The Canucks aren't very deep when 4 of the their top 5 players are out.

Re: Canucks @ Coyotes 7 pm. SNP
Very true. I like the pluckiness and stick to my prediction of 80ish points, but they will struggle hard with four good players and two decent ones out of the lineup.

Some may recall me being all over each and every one of them from Day One.
Basically called them overrated weenies.
I took on most of the board over "SchaFEAR" .
Eventually he ended up in a German league where opposition fans called him "Poodle".
I can see how you would compare Lipstick to those guys (especially this year)
... but Lipstick has more grit than the 3 of them put together in my ever so humble opinion.

Re: Canucks @ Coyotes 7 pm. SNP
I couldn't agree more with your assessment of MDZ.
Not sure what happened to him in the off-season.
I thought the plan would be to pump-and-deadline-dump him this year
... but the DJ must've partied all summer or something.

Re: Canucks @ Coyotes 7 pm. SNP
This team continues to battle and even without all of their top players, started the third tied at 1-1.
Even with Pouliot’s huge gaffe, we had opportunities on the PP. Dad gave the car keys for Goldobin and Leipsic to drive and they crashed hard into a ditch.
I don’t see much future for some of these placeholders but it sure beats dredging up the Megnas and Chaputs.

I think that was soon after you signed up as "Micky".
I think it was something along the lines "If you blah blah blah I will fucking destroy you my friend".
Just my way of welcoming you (back) to the site and motivating you to stay on your toes.
You're welcome!

Re: Canucks @ Coyotes 7 pm. SNP
In regards to mistakes by Pouliot, I doubt it will be easy to just coach them away.
His reactionary thinking is too desperate. When plays are developing according to plan, he's actually a very talented player.
It's that phrase, "under pressure". He needs to know that even if it's a sec, that's enough time to make a decent decision, or at least
better than what he's been doing.
I'm guessing this has been a problem for him for a long time.
