W-GDT: Canucks @ Stars Oct 16, 5pm - SN1, ESPN+

Post by Cornuck »

And so it begins: our 5-game road trip that will "make or break the season" ;)

It's still early yet, but this will give us a good look at how this team (and certain players) respond to a couple of crappy games. They're getting some time on the road to get their shit together and show us something.

Dallas is 3-0, so we can hand them their first loss tonight. Let's work on that. :)

GO CANUCKS GO!

Thank god I am working tonight so can't watch.

Knowing that, they probably play their best game of the season and win. 4 - 1.

I don't mind our top 12 forwards when healthy, but we are asking a lot out of Lekkerimaki, Ratu, Karlsson and Sassons (I have mentally dismissed Bains). We cannot afford any passengers with the other forwards.

2-0 Canucks. Demko steals another.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

I guess Foote wants to see if adding some speed and energy to EP40 makes anything happen. Chytil with the promotion to first line. Seems a reasonable shift.

Bains on the 4th where he belongs (if he's going to be in the lineup) Karlsson in for Sushi, Demko gets the expected start.

Winning combinations = Victory!

For sure, because that is an AHL line. Damn the Canucks forward depth is shite.

The AHL Muppets could lose us the game, but, we need the other 8 forwards playing right to win. We need big games from DeBrusk and DeBoeser

Yup, need to see more from the DeBroskis, they've been quiet so far, as well as Kane. Garland is a little off too, not driving the play as much. EP40s got lots of company.

5-4 Nucks

My cable is glitching so I can't really see this one.

Might be just as well.
