Pre-Game Talk: Game #51: Vancouver Canucks @ Edmonton Oilers - Tuesday, Jan. 21st 6:30PM - SNET-P

[Rotting Corpse*]

Its a pre game talk thread, so its a thread to talk about our next game

 

[hackey]

They should park Henrik and bring up Horvat as an emergency call up
See what the kid could do against the Oilers

we can't it been mention before and Horvat might be hurt too

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Im curious to know what a coach suspension entails? Can he still run practises? Set lines? Be in the dressing room? Go on road trips?

Basically, he can do everything except be on the bench during games. In essence, it is fundamentally pointless, but the league gets to feel good about themselves.

So long as we have playable bodies in the AHL, we cannot call up Horvat.

please dont disappoint me

Have you hit the Big 6-0???

 

[Zanon]

Canucks' goal differential is even. I don't think it's ever been this bad in a longggggggg time.

losing a game 9-1 doesn't help

 

[huntison]

I want this as the lineup.

Vancouver Canucks

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows
Higgins - Kesler - Kassian
Booth - Richardson - Hansen
Sestito - Lain - Weise

Hamhuis - Tanev
Garrison - Bieksa
Edler - Weber

Luongo
Lack

 

[Royal Canuck]

I would go Sestito - Kesler- Kassian

Bieksa - Garrison

And get Kesler kicked out at the start of the game?

No thanks.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

I want this as the lineup.

Vancouver Canucks

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows
Higgins - Kesler - Kassian
Booth - Richardson - Hansen
Sestito - Lain - Weise

Hamhuis - Tanev
Garrison - Bieksa
Edler - Weber

Luongo
Lack

I would rather swap Daniel for Higgins or Kassian. The twins should be tried on different lines for a while, imo. Daniel is too much of a playmaker these days to benefit from Henrik the way he use to.

Vancouver Canucks

Sedin - Sedin - Burrows
Higgins - Kesler - Kassian
Booth - Richardson - Hansen
Sestito - Lain - Weise

Hamhuis - Tanev

Luongo

Henrik and Daniel are sitting out with an injury!

Burrows - Schroeder - Daple
Higgins - Kesler - Kassian
Booth - Richardson - Hansen
Sestito - Lain - Weise

Whoever is doing this GDT we need a "Passion of Torts" theme. Please.

Also, would be pretty classless of the Oilers to goon it up on the opening draw since they submit their lineup last.

The Passion of the Torts, behold Torts driving the Calgarians out of the Temple, heal Henrik and forgiving Bieksa for his sins.

"The Passion of the Torts." A Francesco Aqualini film. Starring John Tortorella.

 

[PG Canuck]

Sestito - Lain - Kassian
Bieksa - Weise

Do it up.

 

[Royal Canuck]

Sestito - Lain - Kassian
Bieksa - Weise

Do it up.

*Sigh*

Bieksa plays 2 seconds of hockey in two games?

Call up Alberts or something.

 

[Rotting Corpse*]

Why on earth are people talking about gooning it up against Edmonton?

We need to open it with our star players. You know, Kassian, Richardson and Sestito.

 

[Hollywood Burrows]

In advance of the game I ask that if you see a ridiculous Dallas Eakins quote please post it here. I'm hoping for some gems.

 

[thepuckmonster]

*Sigh*

Alberts is on the IR thanks to McGrattan.

 

[RobertKron]

Torts should start Sestito at centre with Weise, kassian, bieksa and garrison just to see what Eakins does, and then say he thought they gave him the best chance to score.

 

[PG Canuck]

*Sigh*

Bieksa plays 2 seconds of hockey in two games?

Call up Alberts or something.

Yes, because I was totally 100% serious about that starting lineup.

No really I'm pretty sure he says "I need help"
