Cribbed from the Penguins board's GDT:

That's all Swedes and one Finn with a Swedish surname

I'm like whoTF is the fin?

 

[JuniorNelson]

I'm eager to see who is in net!

Gaudette is interesting too.

I hope the Canucks don't try to make this a statement game. They can't prove team toughness with this roster.

30 years ago, Mario Lemieux scored 15 goals, 31 points in his first 8 games of the 1988-89 NHL season with Pittsburgh. Over the course of a full 80-game season, this pace would have averaged out to be 150 goals, 310 points in a season. Indeed, that was a pretty hot start for Super Mario.

what in the f***

 

[Zombotron]

LOL

 

[Zombotron]

hey, just going 4PPG through the first 10% of the season, NBD i'm mario lemieux hehe : )

 

[Zombotron]

He led the league in goals (85), assists (114, tied with Wayne Gretzky), points (199), power-play goals (31) and shorthanded goals (13)

They swept the New York Rangers in the Division Semi-finals before losing the Division Finals in seven games to the Philadelphia Flyers.

when your star player scores 200 points and 50 goals in 45 games but you can't make it out of round 2

Don Cherry is looking at that picture and says: "Do you know why Canucks sucks? That's why! "

They'll try to make it like a statement game to establish they aren't all rubbish and aren't being carried by a rookie.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Nilsson starts again. Green riding the hot hand.

Gaudette getting a big opportunity stepping directly into Pettersson’s spot in the lineup. Here’s hoping he can do something with it.

Biggest hope for this game is that the top like continues rounding into form. They’ve been getting better with each game thus far.

 

[David Bruce Banner]

Post Pettersson letdown blowout...

7-1

Gaudette for the Canucks

Penguins score 5 on the PP

 

[M2Beezy]

6-4 Pens our goals by Boeser (2), Edler and Eriksson

Looks like a beer league ringer... but 0 GW goals, so probably just a loser who runs up the score when it doesn't count

It will be interesting to see how the team responds after losing their best PP player,and their best PK player...I was impressed with how the team played in sweeping the Florida teams (which would have been a laughable scenario a few weeks ago).

Canucks did beat the Pens last year in Pittsburgh,and that was with a red hot Brock Boeser...Wont be easy.

No worries! Gary's got this! Noone messes with Lupul and gets away with it!

#Canucks Pettersson at the rink this morning. Obviously not on the ice 8:55 AM - Oct 16, 2018

Good to see that EP is up and about,and not shut off in a dark room..Hopefully,his presence inspires the team a bit too.

 

[coastal_nuck]

Sad but not motivated to watch this game without EP in the lineup.
