Whys the announcer giving Chabut a hard time? Hes a rookie and working hard doesnt make sense

He's not a rookie.

What's this Bo Horvbad meme

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

The Canucks need a couple of skilled draft players a 1LW and a 1C. The Sedins are slow, aren't versatile enough and hard on the forecheck. Also they pass too much and take too much time.

I am glad that they will be serving their last season is it next year? Hopefully Virtanen picks it up in Utica and starts scoring. Also I Hope we can get a good player that has 1C potential in the draft and can step in.

very little to cheer for, so cheer the mediocre player with no finish. story of a canuck

Right? I hope one day we'll have the opportunity to get a young talent like Nylander.

There's a poster in the Horvat thread arguing that he's an AHLer.

Also, No Scorvat > Bo Horvbad.

Also the lesser known, Whovat, according to the PA plan.

Oh god, now that fool is getting exposure on HF now.

At night I think of you

[WTG]

Stecher averaging 3.4 shots a game in his past 5 games.

Had 5 shots today, those are some elite shot generation numbers from the back end.

Not good. Looks like could be the season

Maybe should have won three on the road trip. Willie has gotta be sleeping sounder. Nice that the young guys + Burrows are leading the way.

Good

Stecher - hard not to get excited by this player. Stand out in this game

Burrows - vintage stuff. Don't know that he has ever skated better than this. For years underpaid and now everyone thinking he is overpaid needs to reconsider.

Markstrom -wish he wasn't so helter skelter at times but huge performance tonight. Sometimes wants to do too much but great competitor.

Horvat - is he better than MacKinnon??? Was tonight.

Tryamkin - rarely taking a step wrong. Does a lot things well including seeing the play. Puck movement from his end is better than Gudbranson. If this how Tree plays out of shape can't wait to see him when he is.

Sbisa - got to give a shout out to Sbisa. Saw him grimacing at times and I think his ribs must have been hurting. Gutted it out like much of the team.

Tough nights

Hutton - everything too slow. Bad turnover and poor recovery on the first goal and very passive coverage on the second. If he moves his man out from the front of the net, Markstrom has some chance to track the puck. As I saw he didn't even try. Have to let Hutton just play through this and you'll probably get some benefits later in the season. He is a better player than this.

Other

Bottom half of the line up is getting less and less time. AHL players (perhaps with the exception of Chaput) are just non- factors. Megna did little and not in the play much. Skille had a couple of good shifts. Gaunce and LaBate barely played.

Give credit to LaBate for standing in with a legit tough guy in McLeod. LaBate has gone from being a fairly poor fighter to not too bad. Is how he will probably have to make it. Player that can bang around and will drop the gloves.

With Edler out (seems to be getting more and more brittle) I guess we see Larsen (not sure how that works out) although you wonder how close Tanev is. Might be they would consider offering Robak a contract and giving him a look. Looks like per usual the Canucks are going to start running through defensemen. If so might be able to recall Joulevi

What makes you say that? Broken hands don't usually take more than a month or two.

Hope he's back before the TDL

MtB just says stuff.

 

[Ainec]

Did his hand fall off? You are showing [MOD]. No hand injury suffered by blocking a shot takes 4+ months to heal.

 

[Zaddy91]

I just realized when I got my Horvat jersey penned his hand shake was like Thor's

Ive never seen anything like it. Just spouts things.

On a .gif?

This is somehow Mike Gillis' fault

 

[VanJack]

Wow!...Gudbranson up to 25 minutes in this game......looks like Willie will finally have to break up that pairing with Hutton.....can't decide which guy is dragging which guy down....Gudbranson looking like a slightly more mobile version of Andrew Alberts to me.

A video has to come before a gif. And with great videos come great sounds.

People are going to learn quickly how bad our D is without Edler eating up time.
