Jumping the gun on the GDT...lol. Someone is anxious for the season to start.

If he didn’t make it, I was going to in an hour.

Are you kidding? I’ve been waiting to post this since the night of Game 82. So ready for the season to begin!

 

[wonton15]

I’m so happy to be back with you all. It’s been a long summer but I’m ready for another year of shitposting and Myers complaining!

 

[Three On Zero]

Is that hockey I smell?

 

[VanJack]

Game carried by Sportsnet Pacific at 5 p.m. tomorrow from the Saddledome ......I expect the Canucks will start sending players out on Monday to their junior teams or to AHL camp. Hopefully a few of them get into tomorrow's exhibition game before they depart.

 

[The Stig]

Between actually having some pieces in the system, and being so familiar with the players in Abbotsford, I'm much more interested in seeing these early pre season games.

 

[Hansen]

I hope next offseason is shorter than last lfg

 

[Canucks LB]

Ahhh shit here we go again!

 

[settinguptheplay]

So pumped for hockey! Feeling optimistic about the season. Hope we get off to a good start and ride the momentum to meaningful hockey next spring.

 

[VanJack]

Canuck fans are so ready to cut loose and thirsting for playoff hockey. But three silent springs in a row and an interminable off-season.

Meantime, down the I-5, the expansion Kraken are coming off a season where they dethroned the defending Cup champs in the Av' and went seven games against Dallas in the conference semi-finals.

But at the end of the day, it's still a Seahawks town.

 

[Nikolajs Sillers]

Lineup?

Krapken lost a lot of depth this offseason though

 

[David Bruce Banner]

I have no idea who will be playing on each team, but I say the Canucks win, 5-3.
Goals by veteran, veteran, veteran, AHL tweener and young prospect.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Lineup?

No clue yet, will probably be announced sometime late this morning.

 

[VanJack]

Calgary will be a fascinating team to monitor. It's either a 'rebound year' for the likes of Huberdeau, Markstrom, Tanev, Kadri and Backlund......or the whole thing goes into the crapper and everybody gets traded.

Canucks on the other hand are flying completely below the radar screen......to my reading, not one NHL odds site has them making the playoffs. Nowhere to go but up.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

It’s great to be back!
Feeling positive and ready to be excited again about hockey but still a little nervous about the start of the season.
We’ve come a long way from discussing where Beagle, Sutter, Roussel and Loui will fit in the lineup at least and whether OEL and Myers can anchor the top 4.
Lots of reasons for optimism!

THE TANK STARTS NOW LFG

Jk lol.

 

[Aqualung]

So most of the starting lineup this early? Bit surprised.

 

[Chairman Maouth]

The first GDT of every new season sees me dancing and singing like Julie Andrews.

[WetcoastOrca]

As expected, we’re sending the players fighting for jobs or AHL bound while Calgary is icing close to an NHL team to entertain the home crowd.
Will be watching Joshua, Hoglander, Podzolkin, Studnika and Aman who will all be fighting for jobs plus Ward and Hirose to see where they are at.
