*Looks at Isles defense and goaltending*

For the love of God, please score some goals.

Nabokov is still a very good goaltender.

DAMNIT RC YOU RUINED MY IDEA ALREADY.

We can never be friends again.

 

[Zombotron]

Step up your game, RC.

 

[thepuckmonster]

Step up your game, RC.

Mine's better because Grabner.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Mine's better because Grabner.

Hamhuis: "They traded this guy?!"

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

My anticipation for hockey games have been ruined by those Value Village commercials. I now dread game day....

Can't wait till Halloween is over.

Prediction:
A ref will put on a duck costume and taunt the Canucks bench after every goal.

Screw you guys, I tried okay?

 

[thepuckmonster]

Screw you guys, I tried okay?

Try harder.

 

[Zombotron]

I love you all.

How so?

Try harder.

I did it in half an hour during my lecture, have some respect.

 

[thepuckmonster]

I love you all.

I spent way too much time trying to make this yesterday.

Hey Canucks fans, I'm new around here. How do you really feel about Grabner?

Had more of a man crush on him then ever.

He's a top line stud

 

[Royal Canuck]

Yikes, Tavares has 7 points in 3 games against us?

Holy.

He's okay at hockey.

Please kill me.

 

[Nuckles]

He's okay at hockey.

Hedman should have been taken 1st overall.

Holy.

I think he had a 5 point game against us as a rookie...IIRC.

Yup. I was at that game too.

 

[NuxFan09]

I don't know if we need another player discussion thread so I'll just post this here.

I'd like to point out the generally great play of Kevin Bieksa this year. He's got 4 points (4 assists) in 10 games, which puts him on pace for 32 or 33 points. He also leads the team with a +7 rating. The next best rating on the team is +3, which Santorelli, Richardson and Booth all are at. He also leads the team in hits with 22 and is 2nd behind Tanev in blocked shots with 20, which also ranks 17th overall in the league.

I know stats aren't everything but he's also passing the eye test, don't you think? The stats just corroborate that he's doing a bit of everything out there.

 

[Royal Canuck]

Funny that I don't remember this at all.

 

[Toxic0n]

I agree, Bieksa has looked better after a shaky start. His pinches are not as ill-timed as they used to be, he jumps in on the rush a lot and he is playing physical.

You should stick Sutherland or VanMassenhoven's face on the duck.

 

[VanCanucks53]

I love you all.

That's the value village commercial you guys were talking about? I barely even noticed it during games.

I bet you I will now
