Post-Game Talk: Canucks def. Stars - 2-0 | Demko Holds the Door

[Diamonddog01]

Exactly. I don’t want to win the Cup for Canada. I want to win to spite Canada.

Yeah. If the Canucks ever win the cup I want the victory speech to include a huge f*** you to HNIC, Ron McLean and the rest of the country.

Like literally shouting f*** YOU Ron McLean, f*** YOU Hockey Night in Canada and f*** YOU Canada.

I think all this success is straight up Rick Tocchet, it’s crazy to think that our coach is the x-factor. AV left a huge huge hole when he left and it hasn’t been filled until now. Even Bruce although successful for a period wasn’t the answer and it’s kinda crazy that Rutherford and Allvin could see that even when the good times were being had ( the handling of his firing aside ) I think this management knows what they are doing.

Ron McLean calling the Hughes Hronek pair possibly being top 10 d pair. Hughes is 1st in d scoring, and Hronek is tied for second, so they are by far the most productive d pair in the league, and they are air tight defensively. An argument can be made that they are the best d pair in the league.

Vancouver is an international city, no one from f***ing Weyburn, Saskatchewan will cheer for our asses

Believe it or not I got a buddy from Weyburn who is a die hard Nuck fan lmao.

Lmao what! Good shit!

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Also everyone saying this year how the Pacific Division is the worse division (feels like we hear that every year), but 3 of the top 5 teams in the league are from the Pacific.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Lmao what! Good shit!

Tons of Canucks fans in Saskatchewan. Still more Oilers fans. But I'd say we are 2nd.

Ronnie would dance over the body of any canuck he's a loser f . K

11 games into the season, and the Canucks are already 12 points ahead of the Edmonton Oilers....and it could be 14 if they find a way to win Monday's game. Let that sink in.

I mean even Reveen or Madame Zelda with the benefit of a crystal ball couldn't have seen that coming. Canucks have allowed just 22 goals--the best defensive record in the Western Conference and lead the entire league in goals-for.

I mean what is happening here? Are they really that good?

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Maybe it's just a giant case of having all the tools for the past few seasons and finally finding a sexy toolbox to put them all in!

 

[The Stig]

I legit dont know what to make of this.

We are the outlier of Canada because we actually enjoy not having to shovel daily like a normal human

 

[brock hughes007]

We play the Sharks 3 more times before the new year

How amazing is that

Omg the poor Sharks,, 20 goals against in the last 2 games,,,wow

 

[DL44]

That second period was the most impressive of the season for me... So bloody clean till the last couple minutes of it...

Completely shut em down and were out working em, skating and passing it around beautifully..clean smooth breakouts.. clean quick decision making with the puck.. such good hockey.

Great goaltending both ways. Playoff feel.. fun game. Such a good result...

 

[wonton15]

Imagine an alternate timeline where McWard made this team beside Hughes, we never trade for Friedman, and Hronek is not put beside Hughes. Weird how things worked out but props to management and coaches.

 

[Petey But Really Jim]

Ronnie would dance over the body of any canuck he's a loser f . K

I think Ron McLean is a loser too. f*** that guy. He's an assclown.

 

[Ben White]

Pettersson - Might have a stronger game defensively this year than offensively - yet still the top scorer in the League. Broke up a ton of plays and very good on the PK.

Yeah that’s surreal, imagine being the top scorer in the league while having your defensive game outshining your offensive game… then your pretty darn good defensively. If he keeps this up it would be scandalous to not give him the Selke. Could this be a Fedorov ‘94-esque season?

I don't care that Hughes has played one fewer game, Petey is the top scorer in the league by virtue of having one more goal.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Believe it or not I got a buddy from Weyburn who is a die hard Nuck fan lmao.

Brent Butt?

 

[oceanchild]

these are sick

I wish we had a rookie Pavel Bure to add to this team. I would just sign over my pay checks for tickets.

 

[oceanchild]

Not willing to move Lekkerimaki right now either but otherwise yeah

I am for a stud RHD, other than that no way.

 

[alternate]

Impressive win, albeit versus a tired team. Score probably flattered Dallas a bit.

No passengers tonight, which is now the norm. So fun to be watching a lunch bucket team for the first time in way too long.

Powerplay keeps generating chances like to tonight, there won't be many 0-fers.

Loving how the team just goes out and plays their game, shift after shift, no matter the score, period, or opposition. Our puck pressure is just ruthless at times.

It's a long season and there will be some valleys, but this high feels good.

 

[AzNightmare]

Exactly. I don’t want to win the Cup for Canada. I want to win to spite Canada.

I never understood the patriotism. This isn't the Olympics.

If Vancouver is out, I'm out. I could equally give 2 F's about any of the other 31 teams.

 

[Russian_fanatic]

I was at the game, and with our record and the way we are playing, how tf can Petey not resign?

 

[LemonSauceD]

start a referendum and become our own country Cascadia or whatever. Invade Alberta for f***s Lol
