Great game to continue with after the team building exercise against Tampa.

To his two previous seasons with the Nucks. 24 and 23 points respectively.
16 so far this season. Seems like an upgrade.

I doubt he can get back to the 30 goal 70 point seasons he used to have in Dallas, but still.
If he can reach 40 points, that's still an improvement.

The best news is probably Jake though.
He keeps getting better.
May even turn into the player we were once hoping he'd be. :drink:

Sloppy first, Marky held up his end, all of it, lol.
Canucks got things together in the 2nd and 3rd.
Ya know; We have more weapons at our disposal right now then. well, eons.
There is Brock, Elias, the new and improved, Jake, and on and on, but Bo Horvat just keeps getting better.
Those are some elite level skills he's struttin this year, just getting better/awesome...

Considering the Blues dominated for all but about 7 minutes of the second, wow. Blues controlled the boards, Blues were hungrier for loose pucks. Blues kept the Canucks hemmed in their zone much of the night. Canucks were solidly in a clear the puck from the zone - change lines cycle.

But Marstrom bailed them out repeatedly.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

The blues have the absolute shittiest goaltending ive seen since we had cloutier.

Ya i would forget this one and move on.

Definitely full credit goes to Markstrom. Hes quietly establishing himself as a bona fide starter. Gone are the early cheezers

They need to find a Brady Tkachuk type to upgrade the top six. The Canucks young RWers and Cs are pretty solid up front. An upgrade on Leivo, Bear, Roussel, and Goldobin would help the team the team most. If there are no all around LWers like Brady, maybe draft a skilled C that shoots L and could move to the left wing. A playmaker with speed who could set up shooters like Brock and Elias would be good. Speed and passing ability should be the picks top assets. If he also has size and grit it would be ideal. If not a LWer, they should then target a right shot top four defenseman, which doesn't have much for prospects beyond Woo.

Edler's still doin the shit with his shot the best he can from the point but other than that, any other decent shots from there
are from forwards, (Brock, Jake, even Eli). Second PP unit? Aint happening.
