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

[NoShowWilly]

Calgary would likely be our only real shot at getting past round 1 if season series mean anything.

I don't want to play the flames. We are the only team they've beaten in 30 years to get out of the first round.

 

[NoShowWilly]

Kinda classless of EP40 throwing his team under the bus in this thread tbh. Keep that stuff in the locker room, kid.

Like he'd really rock that shitty nickname.

 

[CherryToke]

They played ok it was a scrambly 1st which has been normal on this home stand lol.
One thing I thought was they recovered to keep pucks away from dangerous spots 5 on 5 Detroit got chances but not with room or time often couple on pp but that's to be expected.

They played like ass when it comes to puck possession and breakouts but I guess that should be expected.

 

[Elias GOATtersson]

lmfao did anyone see Baertschi try to donkey kick that puck out of the air?

 

[kanuck87]

Still don't like Leivo on the top line. It's a really awkward fit with Boeser. They're both going into same areas as right-handed shots.

 

[Scholarships]

Roussel is something else

It's been every 1st period lately and Detroit is playing really aggressive nothing to lose hockey.

 

[Peen]

could you imagine if goldobin had tried that lol

 

[Hyzer]

Petey is such a good lad. He tried to deke and lost it so he hustled his ass off to play defense.

Compare that to any other Canuck on this team.


Just a monster.

 

[WTG]

Nyqvist is having a hell of a shift

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Bad turnover by Pete

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Bad Petey Bad

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Markstrom has really become a solid goalie. Consistently plays well.

Just a monster.

It's okay to call it what it is. It was a bad turnover.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

could you imagine if goldobin had tried that lol

He would be shipped out of town by tonight

 

[Pip]

Markstrom the only Canuck playing well so far

 

[Slapshot_11]

could you imagine if goldobin had tried that lol

He'd be stapled to the bench for the rest of the game

It was a bad turnover, but you take the good with the bad with a talent like EP40

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Markstrom has really become a solid goalie. Consistently plays well.

What's best is that he still has one year left on his current contract and he's only 28

 

[BassMason]

Love EPs jam but he was a little scrambly in the d zone there. Obviously trying to make up for his gaffe but I think he could have been a little more contained.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Markstrom has looked so incredibly confident in himself over the last month and a half. Been an incredible difference maker. Really happy to see that

I forget that he's still only 28 and could still carve out a good 5-7 years if he can get into the right headspace, which has always been his largest hurdle

Of course Demko and Dipietro throw wrenches in that

 

[Fire Benning]

Canucks would be in a very dark place if it weren't for Markstrom.

 

[ErrantShepherd]

It's okay to call it what it is. It was a bad turnover.

Yeah, it was a bad turnover... but the effort to fix it, even blocking a shot right in front of the goalie was impressive.

 

[Canuckle1970]

Marky saving ass

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

WTF was that???
