Post-Game Talk: Jets def. Canucks | 4-2 (Juulsen, Myers) | Wherefore art thou, PP?

[Reverend Mayhem]

Need another top 6 player, Suter is more suited for the bottom six.

Realistically I think we need 1 more top 6 winger, a depth forward with speed and grit, and another RHD

Fo some odd reason when they traded Horvat, theyjust stopped using the bumper setup.

It works. It was working because it's a great play that's hard to stop. They have multiple players who can shoot as well or better than Horvat.

This wall passing, fancy line shit that doesn't end up going anywhere but into shinpads is just so ineffective.

To be fair it worked,
however the rest of league will catch up to the tactic pretty quickly as we can all see.
The NHL is the best league in the world for a good reason, we gotta adapt and switch our plans if we want success in the future.

You said 5-0 jets though, fail

Pipe down lil bro

Which is why we need to have more than one PP strategy. Change it up mid game when it’s not working.

Mikayhev is not cutting it, for real when's the last time he scored? November?

My bad big homie

Juulsen went from hero to goat in one 2 minute stretch in the 3rd ..
Top 6 scoring mia, PP dormant, demko shoulda had the 1st goal…otherwise carried the play nicely

I understand this game was incredibly frustrating and I’m pissed off as well but it’s one bad game .

The entire team isn’t playing and we are 0 for 18 on the power play so everyone needs to get better .

We have no assets left to trade for a top 6 forward unless we really wanna mortgage the future but we need to play better with what we have and losing Joshua is clearly really hurting this team

It's now been 24 f***ing games. That's just ridiculous.

It ain't one bad game

 

[beachcomber]

Playoff type hockey and predictably, guys like Petey, Lindholm, Mik etc won't be difference makers.

 

[Bobby9]

Been talking about it for months and catching a lot of flak from people here.

Our star players are not built for the playoffs. Only Miller is. They’re to soft and fancy. EP, Hughes and BB in particular.

Surrounding your best players with grit isn’t the same as having good gritty players.

EP is not a player you can win a cup with if he’s your star player. Absolutely cannot pay him more than 10M.

After hours - "tried to Timothy, but just couldn't Jimothy."

Missed the Boston game?

EP was extremely good in the bubble playoffs

If the Canucks retain 50% of his contract do we get back a 3rd round pick ??

And yes I know it ain’t just one it’s been many bad games and the inconsistency it really hitting us hard and going 0 for 18 is not the results we need especially this point in the season

 

[Peen]

Thought Juulsen and Myers played a fantastic 40 minutes but then we just chased.

PDG, Mikheyev looked really good to me. Their best games of the season by a long shot and a good sign. Mikheyev’s had some steady progression here post-ASB

That Miller line was good defensively and had some nice sustained shifts

Pettersson with another meh game. Not a good stretch for a while here

PP’s so bad. Most obvious fix to me would be to put Miller back on the half wall. Need to get Pettersson skating and confident with the puck on his stick on the PP.

Anyways, whistle was bad for 40 minutes but the whistle was put away in the third and we were tied 2-2. It was a clean slate and we dominated and then gave up the same goal twice on break downs. Result doesn’t really matter.

 

[VanCanucks53]

I don’t know how you don’t love a guy like Miller after watching him on afterhours. Guy just wants to win.

 

[Yultron]

Missed the Boston game?

Sure did , I was watching the Lakers game instead and looks like I made the right choice

 

[NoShowWilly]

I enjoyed the game tonight. i love that the intensity was there. Regular season game in the middle of a tough stretch of games against a solid team. Defensemen got caught chasing hits a couple times.

On to the next one. It is a quick turn around.

As far as the powerplay goes, hopefully the guys can get some proper practice in after this next road swing.

 

[Sedinery]

Intense game. Horrible officiating.

Jets size is a problem and we need an answer

 

[Lawzy]

What a surprise, no shows against top teams once again

This is a pretty bad take. Now if you amend that statement to only include our star players, I think that's a fair assessment.

Intense game. Horrible officiating.

Jets size is a problem and we need an answer

I think I'd argue trying to address this problem was the reason we lost tonight actually. They don't need to play like a big team to win.

 

[Sedinery]

Pdg has not added much when in the lineup

Time to sit him down and give Bains a shot

Suter blew alot of chances

Both call on Hogs were terrible
