Penticton YoungStars tournament (VAN/EDM/CGY/WPG)

[vanarchy]

"That includes forward Brock Besler"

 

[quat]

McCann has one of the best shots in the CHL, his coach tells him to shoot that 10 times out of 10

Yeah, but on a 3 on 1 you've got to at least hit the net or it's going the other way for an odd man rush.

I'd want him to shoot as well ... just hit the net.

 

[quat]

Shinkaruk isn't having a very good game. Looks weak.

 

[Superpest]

Yeah, but on a 3 on 1 you've got to at least hit the net or it's going the other way for an odd man rush.

I'd want him to shoot as well ... just hit the net.

It happens.

 

[Breakers]

Yes, and thats why a GM would draft a guy 6th overall.

I've never seen someone with such hate for a player like you do for Virtanen

It's kind of embarrassing.

 

[Rebuilt]

Nah, we drafted him to rustle Oiler fans. So far so good.

Agreed.

Say, why not draft Ehlers or Nylander and just keep Kassian?

 

[UnrefinedCrude]

why is Principe doing play by play? did he volunteer or something?

yeah this tourney only has each teams scrub announcers

 

[CanaFan]

It happens.

Pretty much. If you're trying to pick corners you'll miss the net a few times. Rather that than a sizzler into the crest trying to play it safe.

 

[Leafidelity]

Subban has impressed me tonight

 

[UnrefinedCrude]

lotta whistles... refs afraid this might get away from them I think.

 

[CanaFan]

Agreed.

Say, why not draft Ehlers or Nylander and just keep Kassian?

Cause our players would spend the whole game trying to get even with guys like Virtanen for hitting Nylander/Ehlers.

Seriously though you might have missed that Virts did score 45 goals the year we took him. The guy isn't just a scrub goon, despite how he's being portrayed by some posters.

 

[19VJ17]

Just started watching and I am wondering who has done the scoring for EDM

 

[quat]

It happens.

yep, indeed it does.

 

[BigBen]

Sick shot.

 

[bobbyt 91*]

yea for Nurse, generational pass by McDavid!!

 

[Aceonfire*]

Lol, the Oilers are just lighting the Nucks up.

Nice goal by Nurse.

 

[CanaFan]

Nice shot by Nurse. Top corner on a wrister is impressive.

 

[Sam Spade]

Subban has impressed me tonight

Subban and Virtanen are the only two Canucks kids that have made an impression.

On the Oiler side, Nurse is going to be very good. McDavid had a great first shift, not much else. Still 23 minutes to go though.

 

[quat]

Man, Nurse with a nice shot on net for a goal, and all you hear is about McDavid. That's just freaking sad.

 

[Bobs your uncle]

Nurse dominating this game. He can assert his will as he sees fit.

 

[BigBen]

laleggia has been the best d in the game so far imo. Nurse and Subban have looked pretty good too.

 

[CherryToke]

Principe seems to think that was McDavid's first career assist.

 

[Aceonfire*]

Subban and Vitanen are the only two Canucks kids that have made an impression.

On the Oiler side, Nurse is going to be very good. McDavid had a great first shift, not much else. Still 23 minutes to go though.

Not much else as in getting the primary assist on Nurse's goal..

 

[Mc5RingsAndABeer]

Yea Subban and Virtanen have looked good

McDavid and Nurse have looked solid for Edm

 

[McIce Whole]

Are these supposed to be the Canucks top prospects? Jeez they are very unimpressive. Virtanen and Subban have been noticeable. Only game one though, so can't really judge them I guess.
