Edlet walking around the dressing room.
Looks like we dodged a bullet
Good to hear about Edler
What's up with Demko and why didn't you report it earlier?

Really? One of the saves of the year and it,s Goldy,s fault?

Re:Edler injury
I hate to admitt this but when i saw a player laying down looking unconscious and injured all i thought off was " please not pettersson "
Disagree on Tanev, he’s good overall but he fan on a shot which lead to the Vorceck breakaway goalGive the Canucks credit for an excellent effort but there were times in this game when they looked as disorganized as they have at any point during this season. Hart was a key factor in the loss but also some lack of finish by Vancouver.
Good
Edler - will be missed if out any length of time. Having an outstanding season and this injury may create a quandary heading into the TD/re-signing situation.
Tanev - usual good effort.
Stecher - very strong as the game went on. Evolving into a true bona vide NHL player. Every facet of game is improving
Hutton - making the right play consistently. Got some of his mojo back after the break.
Virtanen - goal maybe should have counted. Moved the puck well and used speed to create forchecking pressure and plays off the rush. If you think he will get a little better hands as career progresses then you keep that potential. If you don't think he will get more touch, you have to see what he might be worth to others
Sutter - liked his game. Skating better and good defensively. Looks like he is finally getting game together
Markstrom - provided enough saves to give the team a chance.
Not Good
Pouliot - just brutal. It's all be said and then re-said many times
Shaller - just such a lack of any skill. Toss up as to who would be more effective - Shaller or Granlund
Others
Goldobin - made a number of sweet passes and at least got himself in a position to score. Question right now is does this player have the speed to take advantage of the skill he has. If he could get to the puck a little quicker, get himself more space he could be very good. But all that remains an "if". I think the effort is there but maybe the high end speed needed just isn't.
Pettersson - one of his weaker games. Looked rattled in this game. Gonna happen at times
Horvat - Canucks have to get more out of him. Not bad but not as good as he needs to be for this team to go anywhere.
You’ve been away from Vancouver too long.Man when it rains it pours.
I love how Hutton thinks the game when he has the puck on his stick, he's just much more of a playermaker than Edler is

Looks like facial injury to Edler as he will do x rays, just a pure freak accident.
Lol because im not previ to that info. Why would i report it?
Rookie Brock Boeser buries one of those prime chances as well as the gimmie
How Schaller scored 12 goals and 22 points last year is beyond me. He'd be lucky to hit 10 points here.I don't understand what Tim Schaller was supposed to be? Was he supposed to bring energy? Be a PK guy? A guy that makes big hits & scores occasionally?
Whatever Benning envisioned he'd bring its been a massive failure. Atleast he got Roussel.
Shawn Matthias scored 18 goals for us. Some guys just get lucky with a career year in the last year of their contract.How Schaller scored 12 goals and 22 points last year is beyond me. He'd be lucky to hit 10 points here.
Matthias had precedent of being a 10 goal 20 + point guy thoughShawn Matthias scored 18 goals for us. Some guys just get lucky with a career year in the last year of their contract.
I only saw the tail end of it, but did I catch Shorty calling Edler a "classy player"? I love Edler but lmao
Also Goldy needs to start packing or something cause he gets robbed more than anyone I've ever seen
