Post-Game Talk: Canucks def. Devils - 6-3 (Horvat x 2, Hunt, Hoglander, Pearson, Lammikko)

[wonton15]

Chiasson is such a sore spot. He slows the entire team down and has hands worse than Hansen.

 

[Canuckle1970]

There should be no excuses for coming out flat in the 1st. None.
What a week - home games with no Petey. Damn.

Go Demko!

What is with the boomer-quality memes I'm seeing posted in these threads lately

Just trying to bring some humour and positive energy to everyone here, my Canucks friend. I understand sometimes I miss the mark, but if I can give someone a smile or a laugh then….

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Must win IMO

 

[CanuckCity]

So we have to kill that steak of what, 12? straight losses to the devils. Need to take advantage of vegas' losing streak

Worse hands than Hansen? As in Jannik?

Just noticed the instruction at top to opt out of "live" threads. Done.

THANK YOU !!!

The fact that Petan,Hunt and Chaisson are ahead of both Hog and pod on the PP depth chart makes me sick.

 

[nucks88]

With Pettersson out, not selling at the deadline is inexcusable. I don’t care if we win the next 3 games. The team is going nowhere without a healthy Pettersson.

I'm starting to question if there ever will be a healthy Pettersson for more than a 20 game stretch again...

It’s really sad. I seriously hope it’s not the same wrist injury. If it is, he should probably be shut down for the season. You can’t just say he’s “day to day” for 6 months every year.

But man I really hope for Peteys sake that this isn’t serious and he’s able to make a full recovery.

Even if his wrister isn't ever the same again, he's young enough, and smart enough to still become a very effective player.

 

[Hoglander]

No excuses, even with EP out this is a winnable game. Our Hughes needs to show up

yes why choose better players who could use the injection of confidence they may get from getting better odds on the PP. Makes sense maybe swap out Pearson and Garland for Highmore and Lammikko too.

-------------Chiasson
Lammikko--Highmore---Petan
--------------Hunt

now thats what i want to see

 

[Breakers]

Petan gets PP time

Is this a F'n joke?

are we trying to actively sabotage this teams prospects for the future?????????????????

Guy hasn't played a single game for this team this season.

 

[platotld]

Devil went down to Georgia Street, got himself a bout of bad ...

 

[RussianRacket]

We will win.

Imagine panic selling at the deadline when boasting a near .700 win percentage in the last 33 games, but no, let's sell everything because Pettersosn has missed two games.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Let’s keep the talk focussed on the game tonight in here. We have threads to discuss the trade deadline.

 

[Love]

Vegas losing again…

Hughes>Hughes

To be fair, Im not against the team playing their best and making the post-season but a near 70% win percentage is totally unsustainable.
Feels like the planets need to align for us to only make the playoffs.
I wouldnt call it panic selling, more like planning for the future in this situation.

 

[geebaan]

We will win.

That’s what you said last game lol

God forbid having a take like this…

 

[Peen]

I think they need 6/8 points this homestand so winning tonight and Thursday is necessary. Halak game is a schedule loss.
