Lets keep rollin

 

[Addison Rae]

I'm feeling confident about this one.

 

[MrShift4]

Beat L.A.!

 

[Fairweather]

Play hard, play smart, don't get hurt.

A win would be great of course =)

 

[HankNDank]

LA has as many wins in as many games played as SJ does this year. Why am I not biting my nails to the bone when the game time approaches? Oh, because they have Dwight King and Tyler Toffoli on their 2nd line.

 

[BassMason]

Their 3rd and 4th line centres first names are Trevor and Linden respectively. I'm getting worried about this one now.

Its not like Linden Vey played junior hockey in Medicine Hat...

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Yeah time to win!!!!!!

5-2 Canucks!

 

[How Ya Drouin]

7-0 loss.

Book it.

 

[Saturated Fats]

Nothing altogether intimidating about the Kings roster. Forecheck hard and take advantage of their slower forward corps. As with SJ, they're a good team, but beatable if we play a similar way to last night.

I don't know where the luongo thread went so i thought I'd post this here:

Strombone ‏@strombone120m
I kinda liked being the only "nutty" goalie in my division.... :-(

I love Lu.

Go Canucks Go!!!!! We better beat the Kings. I'm sure Drew Poughty will be up to his old tricks with the refs.

 

[thepuckmonster]

We match up well against the Kings, should be a good game.

 

[tantalum]

I hope and think the Canucks are intent on using this trip to "announce" themselves to the California teams. I look forward to a good effort from the canucks.

 

[ProstheticConscience]

Tomorrow would be a really good time to continue beating Cali teams.

 

[wonton15]

Dalpe has really shown nothing so far (my only concern)

 

[Bgav]

Rich city Hatty

PP flatter than Olive Oyl would be mine.

7-0 loss.

Book it.

uh oh, trevor linden? 3-1 going into the third, 4-3 loss in OT.

 

[NuxFan09]

I'm pretty confident about this game. The Sharks were the team I was most worried about, although I'm pretty sure the Kings will put forth a better effort, especially defensively, than the Sharks did.

I'm hoping the Sedins get back on the scoreboard in this one.

 

[BuzzBuzz]

Not sure if it is just me, but after the first line, the Kings have a sad sack of wingers.

 

[Imuzi]

I'll go with the safe prediction.

Sestito with a hatrick in a 7-2 win

 

[Bleach Clean]

Not sure if it is just me, but after the first line, the Kings have a sad sack of wingers.

Toffoli is dangerous and of course Carter is Carter. They're OK. They have 5 really good forwards and wingers that compliment their style.

I think VAN loses this game. If the PP was going better I would think differently, but an ES battle plays into what LA does naturally, so VAN should be in tough. Key match up is Santorelli shutting down or matching Richards.

 

[gobi]

Any chance of Lack starting this one? I think it's about time he gets a turn, no?

 

[Love]

Carter being injured makes it look worse than it is.
