I hope we see that dance again. Miss him dearly.

 

[VanillaCoke]

I'll take a 5-4 loss with mcann and Horvat getting 2 each.
Läck with 54 saves to keep the numbers good.

 

[PG Canuck]

Wouldn't mind an Eddie 40 save shutout to stick it to Benning.

 

[JuniorNelson]

Eddie did his time in Vancouver's net and was amicable about it. That's admirable. Garrett was the other one.

Canucks should start showcasing players and sheltering others. This season was a clear indicator and so was the Coyotes game.

so glad we have marky instead

 

[Wilch]

More like so glad we have Ry6n Mill3r instead?

 

[HSD19]

so glad we have marky instead

We could and should have both

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Eddieee <3

 

[Canadian Canuck]

We could and should have both

Don't get me started...

 

[electriccanuck*]

miller sux but i do think splitting time with him is better for marky's development. two young, learning goalies constantly looking over their shoulder is a bad thing

Lack and even Markstrom aren't that young, 28 and soon-to-be 26. Lack was also a much better (and cheaper) goalie than Miller in his time here.

 

[electriccanuck*]

that is quite young in goalie years

Having both would have hindered their development, especially Markstrom.

 

[Wilch]

Lack was ready last season. In fact, I thought Lack would have been ready 2 seasons ago if our key players didn't get injured and the team didn't mentally check out mid-season.

 

[VanJack]

Wouldn't mind an Eddie 40 save shutout to stick it to Benning.

At the rate the Canucks are scoring goals these days I could see this happening....he'll be facing his old stable-mate Markstrom...didn't they also share the same team in the SHL?...if it hadn't been for Lack this team would never have made the playoffs last season...he has to smiling inside contemplating the 'Nucks decision to keep their $6m goaltender who's broken down again and can't begin to play the 60 games the 'Nucks braintrust seems to think he can play.

 

[Cogburn]

Hoping we pull out a win tomorrow night, sorry Eddie.

I'm 2/2 this season, so...I'll take the wussy way out and say I just hope I'm entertained.

 

[Tim Calhoun]

Wouldn't mind an Eddie 40 save shutout to stick it to Benning.

Same. I will be cheering against the Canucks this game.

That trade enrages me to this day.

 

[GPNuck]

I'll be cheering for Eddy tomorrow. Easily one of the most likeable players we've ever had, I hope he makes the management look stupid tomorrow for trading him for peanuts

 

[Peen]

Expecting an eddie chant

 

[M2Beezy]

3-1 Canes with are goal by Higgins to finally get one. Easy night for Lack. Hope fully vrbata traded

 

[Huggy]

Eddie eddie eddie

 

[valkynax]

Lack starting? if so I hope he gets a shutout, just so I can see Benning's ****ing face.

 

[SgtToody]

The deal still irks me. Worse are guys like the Moj, pointing to EL's tough early numbers and saying 'told you!' Lack's an emotional, wear-it-on-your-sleeve kind of guy, so I'm not surprised that the trade caused him to stumble out of the gate. Whether or not you like Lack as a 1-A or 1-B kind of starter, the trade is more evidence that Benning's asset management is horrible. I'm still waiting to see one case where he came out ahead of the game and got fair , equal or better value...

 

[Royal Canuck]

Welcome back Eddie!
