Post-Game Talk: 2/14/18 | Panthers 4 @ Canucks 3

[Chairman Maouth]

Canucks Game Day: Lu set for big return?

After the Canucks finished off their latest road trip on a high note, Vancouver returns to Rogers Arena to host the Florida Panthers (7 p.m., Sportsnet Pacific, Sportsnet 650 AM)

THE BIG MATCHUP

Bo Horvat vs. Alex Barkov

In last week’s 3-1 loss to the Panthers in Florida, the Canucks’ top line of Horvat, Boeser and Baertschi had their possession hats fed to them by the Florida trio led by Nick Bjugstad. As we know, where Horvat and Boeser go, so do the Canucks.

4-2 Panthers our goals BOTH by Boeser

Panthers have recently split Huberdeau and Barkov and the wins seem to have started coming. They are 4 up on the canucks with 3 games in hand.

I believe they have been running Dadonov-Barkov-Bjugstad and Huberdeau-Trochek-Malgin as the top two units of late. McGinn-McCann seem to be a duo on the third line.

Said it last game as well but Barkov just seems destined to win a Selke at some point.

Hope Lu gets the start. Might be his last game in Vancouver...

Better this year than 2020....at least the penalty if he retires at the end of this year is $2.5 mil for a few years. 2020 and it's a one year $8 mil hit.

Satiar Shah and Jawn Jang mentioned just now on their radio program that the podium mics are being set up at Rogers Arena and that something seems to be brewing. They don't know what it is, but they have speculated that today could be a news day for the Canucks.

Jeff Paterson just tweeted this:

Benning has been re-signed for an additional 6 years.

In his first move after this, he says: "Please welcome the newest member of the Vancouver Canucks - Lucic"....

Everything is happening!

A Markstrom Luongo match... We get scored on the very first shot of every period and they get scored on in the last minute of every period.

LUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Paper bags, get your Canucks trademarked paper bags. 1 for a dollar

 

[David Bruce Banner]

Hopefully home ice allows us to keep Horvat away from Barkov.

4-2 Canucks

Horvat, Baertschi, Jake and Archie.

 

[BerSTUzzi]

God a fire Benning chant would be so hilarious at this game.

 

[PG Canuck]

hope Lu plays

 

[Nomobo]

I think the team is inspired by the Benning extension and comes up big.
6-2 Nucks.

 

[Wo Yorfat]

PM if you want a jersey to throw/burn.

 

[DL44]

I don't think the Panthers win this one.

Just need Vanek to score in this one and every game till the deadline.

 

[JuniorNelson]

I think the team is inspired by the Benning extension and comes up big.
6-2 Nucks.

I think the team is relieved by the Benning extension and takes the night off. 6-0 Panthers.

Haha, also a possibility but I'm going with the first scenario.

 

[M2Beezy]

Everything is happening!

Haha what does that even mean
