Post-Game Talk: Game #50: Vancouver 3, Detroit 2: No Ls on the homestand (yet)

SO where's the interference call stick on shoulder elbow yay NHL you could find monkeys that do better.

And of course WTG with the homework. Bravo.

I am aware of all of those stats save for the SC%. Where did you pull that from?

Anyway, I expect a regression with their PDO and Markstrom. That said, they are currently in 11th place based upon points percentage. The 5th place team is 8 points behind. There are 32 games left. Do you think that their conversion rate will sink enough over that span that the regression will result in an 8 point shift in pace? You also need one of those bottom5 teams to win enough to get into 6th. It's not as straight forward as it may seem.

I know their underlying numbers are terrible. The regression to the mean though will have to start now, and there has to be enough time for it to have an impact for them to land bottom5. That's my point.

Thought a new rule is no tank talk in GDT

Soo, green got mad and decided f*** it there’s not enough talent to split it up so I am gonna stack the first line?

 

[Canuckle1970]

Yaaaaahhhh! Roussel ! Great shot from Jake!

 

[Pip]

Can’t believe Jake got away with that crosscheck

 

[Canucks LB]

Rousselllll

 

[kanuck87]

Virtanen got away with a cross-check, but I'll take it!

 

[canuckfan75]

Horvat is double shifting and Pettersson is playing LW

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Roussel..

 

[PG Canuck]

Roussel is a psycho hahaha

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

I’m guessing it was Tim Heel who missed it

 

[bbud]

Lol take 2 periods off

 

[kanuck87]

Lol 4-on-2 rush was terribly executed.

 

[Peen]

Horvat is double shifting and Pettersson is playing LW

Sutter has been total dog shit this season

They need to dump him before his value tanks

Natural Stat Trick
Is where I got the stats from.

As for regression, I think that this team has shown it is capable of dropping a lot of games in a row. It's bound to happen, if it doesn't then the canucks would be considered lucky. This team is not close to the playoffs, if they get close this year, unless they make major changes, they won't be close next year.

These aren't posts to advocate for the tank.

But since it can be confused for that, as you have just proven, I will take it elsewhere.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

With all the penalties that Roussel takes and the typical conversion rate, that must negate a lot of his on-ice contributions, right?

Was listening to 650 the other day..apparently Roussel draws almost as many penalties as he takes..

It’s fine, I wasn’t serious with that post

Not like they weren't owed one lol

 

[cabinessence]

They should be able to get at least a point out of this, which is more than it seemed possible after the second period.

He also gets a ton of reputation calls which is complete BS
