Post-Game Talk: A wounded honey badger still don't care; wins game 2-1 over Oilers

[Hardyvan123]

Defintion of win/win

Pretty much this.

every game from this point forward is going to be magnified in one direction of the playoffs or the other direction of finally getting a player like Mathews.

 

[Bad News Benning]

He will use it as a crutch to be given another reason to give it a shot at the playoffs again.

"We were hit hard by the injury bug, and therefore couldn't be the 100 point playoff team we know we are. We have next year"

yeah but 100 point teams have depth....his idea of defensive depth is Bartkowski, Sbisa, and Weber. Should be fired on the spot for that reason alone.


He will eventually get **** canned. Only a matter of time.... can't see him lasting too much longer in this market.

I hope you are right, but I'm not sure I see him getting canned just yet. Unfortunately.

Aqua acts fast....ownership seems obsessed about making the playoffs and not properly rebuilding. Pretty sure Benning will be lucky to have a job if the season quickly goes down the toilet. Sadly we will hire another GM who is given the orders to make the playoffs next season and the rebuild will continue to be stuck in neutral. As much as we need a new GM we also need ownership to encourage/allow the GM to rebuild from the ground up.

Maybe they were planning a reverse-Torts year? Start the year in absolutely abysmal fashion and then come back from the break firing on all cylinders?

Hutton mccann and markstrom are preventing the full submergence

With or without first round humiliation?

The humiliation hit before we even got to October so I'm guessing with.

 

[me2]

Nah WD gonna give his personal fav Bartkowski a shot at 1D pair and play him for 25 ****ing minutes.

Edler-Bartkowski

Dat depth!


Here's to a 10-9 game with lots of kiddie points.

 

[VanJack]

I'm guessing 5-2 Oilers unless Markstrom pulls off another Tampa game....not liking the 'Nucks blueline matched up against Hall, Eberle and Draisaitl...and the coaching matchup, McLellan versus Willie...yikes

 

[Hit the post]

Willie is the fail-safe device.

yeah but 100 point teams have depth....his idea of defensive depth is Bartkowski, Sbisa, and Weber.

Actually those guys (if you ignore Pizza's contract) aren't bad as #7's aka depth guys.....it's expecting (or at least two of the three as Jimbo thought) all three as top six guys lead you to....

 

[The Drop]

Team tank but losing to the Oilers would be bad. Their fans treat these Canuck games like they're playoff games.

 

[iceburg]

Looking forward to seeing Pedan play tonight. Mostly just hope he doesn't look out of place.

Or throws a giant hit on Hall or Draisaitl

Not trying to make some dumb joke here. But is "Andrej" some alternate spelling of Pedan's first name, like how Baertschi's last name has 2 different spellings.

 

[iceburg]

That would be good too

 

[Peen]

Higgins skated but isn't playing.. injury wasn't mentioned on canucks twitter

They scratched him? Is this real life?

Injured. Undisclosed as per cdc

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Sedin-Sedin-Hansen
Bae-McCann-Vrbata
Kenins-Horvat-Burrows
Prust-Cracknell-Dorsett

Edler-Bartkowski
Hutton-Weber
Pedan-Biega

Markstrom

That's a solid 100pt season lineup...

 

[VanJack]

Realize that every team does it, but can't understand why the Canucks never give any accurate information about their injured players.....pretty obvious that Miller was more seriously hurt when he exited the shootout in Florida....but initially it was just 'cramping', ...and now he's out at least a week....so they're riding Markstrom whether Willie wants to or not.

The Oilers are worse, especlally with McDavid.. a comical level, almost embarrassing.

Burrows is out too lol

Injured. Undisclosed as per cdc

the way he's played this year I wonder if he came back too early or got reinjured.

No, he was just as bad last year too.
