Post-Game Talk: Canucks def. Preds - 5-2 | De(Smith)nied | Pettersson, Aman, Hoglander, Suter, Blueger

[kanucks25]

When this team shows they are the best team in the league, good enough to win the Cup given health, then we can have the them vs 2011 argument.

Until then, just enjoy the ride

 

[Petey But Really Jim]

The d is far better under tocchet Soucy back soon it gets better this team has potential to make noise in the playoffs maybe not enough to go all the way yet but on right track keep it up boys

Buttman already plotting.

 

[TruKnyte]

I’ve been doubting this team for a long time, glad to see them prove me wrong. Hope they can keep it up.

 

[alternate]

Ya safe to say now, we aren't a bubble team.

Dominant win. Nice to see a strong start. One of our best 60 minite efforts of the season.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

DeSmith seems like a really good dude. Great interview with him. Very happy with him on the team.

College goalie arrested for domestic assault and resisting arrest

University of New Hampshire starter Casey DeSmith was booked during move-in weekend for allegedly punching and spitting on a woman. It's the latest unsavory event involving a Hockey East player.

I can’t believe kucherov is at 56 points

I’m pumped for Pettersson and Hughes to reach the 40 point plateau

I swear Kuch was at 42 points like a few days ago.

 

[PuckMunchkin]

Well yes the current version of him. But last year’s duo and version of EP was much better.

Last years Kuz was a mirage.

You say this with so much unearned confidence.

If they ban porn, I'm just gonna watch compilations of Hoglander cellies.

How could I earn some confidence sir?

Fly to Canada and fight me on the Rocky Mountains!

Do any of the following:
- Go to vault 12 and bring back the water chip
- Win a fist fight against a super mutant
- Sleep with slave guild leader
- Become the citizen of Vault City by passing its citizenship test
- Make an omelet with Deathclaw eggs
- Become a porn star in New Reno

Any one will do, dealer's choice.

Just had all four of my wisdom teeth removed at once at the age of 27.

No lifting for 1-2 weeks, rip me

That's not very wise.

I want to replay Fallout 2 now so much.

Did a pretty comprehensive playthrough of Fallout 1 not too long ago and loved it still with all its clunky 90s inventory mechanics and punishing 1 shot kill combat <3

Well, what’s done it’s done. I could have done twice at once but I don’t want to come back

Fallout 1 and 2 are, in my opinion, THE definitive Fallout experience. Fallout 3 and the rest, none of them come close. New Vegas did its best, but I'd put Fallout 2 above it any day of the week.

If you do get around to it, install the Fallout 2 Restoration Project. Keeps a play through fresh.

 

[Regal]

Not sure I'd agree with you on the wingers, either. Who'd you rather have on your team, Daniel Sedin or Brock Boeser? Burrows or Mikheyev? Heck, Torres or Joshua? The list goes on. The very top of the defense (Hughes) is probably better on this team, but that's about it. You might have an interesting discussion Kesler versus Miller as well, though I still probably take Kesler for the penalty killing, which this team is actually bad at (versus the absolute elite 2011 pk team). Top to bottom that 2011 team would kick this one's ass, ha ha. Which isn't to knock this team. They have a lot of point-getters, and they're getting better in other areas.

Yea, some people are getting carried away. Daniel was so much better than any winger currently and even Burrows was a better player than Boeser. I think the increase in scoring is maybe warping people’s opinions. 2011 was a far better team and the only significant edge this one has is Hughes

Trolling Enclave will have...consequences lmao...

Non isometric fallout is BS fallout

People are forgetting that even peak Henrik scored 30+ goals. Injuries in the playoff neutered us and I think people just remember the hobbled version instead of the dominant version.

 

[PG Canuck]

22 ROW
125 goals for (most in NHL)
+44 differential (best in NHL)
PP is 6th best
Goals allowed/game 2nd best

If they keep Kuz, great, but better get him going. If they trade Kuz, great, but need a piece back that can make a difference like Kuz has the potential to do.

Would love to see Pod come up and make a difference.

Don’t think Allvin is done either. Doubt we could add someone like Tanev, but a Tanev would be ideal.

Hughes - Hronek
Soucy - Tanev/etc
Zadorov - Myers
Juulsen

I feel a lot better about a D like that.

Kids these days are so soft, I had all 4 of mine removed at 17 and was eating pizza the next day! (Should I have been is a different story). Seriously though, that sucks. The food getting stuck in the holes was gross, and you only get the come down from the morphine or whatever they shoot you up with. Braces was a much more agonizing experience for me, if you can find any solace in that.

You mean you were drinking a pizza smoothie the next day
