L-GDT: Canucks @ Pens - Oct 21 4pm - SNP, ESPN+

[Cornuck]

Ok...... here we go again. Do we have it in us?

Can this team pull off 4 in a row on the road?

Not sure what the lineup will look like, but they're going to keep it close.

GO CANUCKS GO

[rats19]

No point in stopping now..

4-3 nucks

[donlever]

Against Silovs one would imagine.

Long screened/semi-screened shots high blocker boys.

[theman]

Well, at least the Canucks should know how to shoot on Silovs.

I would expect a lot of this:

That’s a heartbreaker…. The whole series pivoted with that one, and maybe more importantly, it ushered in the era of memes….

But tonight, 3-1 Canucks. DeBrusk (pp), Hronek, Kane (EN).

Blueger is doubtful; the forward was injured late against Washington. ... Boeser, a forward, could miss a second straight game because of personal reasons. ... Canucks defenseman Victor Mancini was assigned to Abbotsford of the American Hockey League on Monday. ... Silovs starting in goal is the only expected change for the Penguins from a 3-0 win at the San Jose Sharks on Saturday.

[theman]

That forward group, my god. Hopefully they worked their butts off tonight.

2 - 1 Canucks in a tight one.

[donlever]

But tonight, 3-1 Canucks. DeBrusk (pp), Hronek, Kane (EN).

UW not only showing he has the patience of Jobe but also demonstrating his empathetic side.

Crucified Kane for his stoopid (sic) D play one day.

Throwing him on the ice defending a late lead the next.

[Meds]

UW not only showing he has the patience of Jobe

Who’s Jobe?

[donlever]

Who’s Jobe?

Dude that hung with Betty Grable and Brigitte Bardot.

Is that Bettie Grable or Bridgette Bardot?

As opposed to the Bible guy....

Smart-ass....
