Post-Game Talk: GAME #70: Canucks 4 vs. Rangers 1 (Boeser, Motte x2, Virtanen)

[PuckMunchkin]

Another ****ing terrible jersey number. Team needs to get this under control.

This #fetish some people have with jersey numbers triggers me way more than it should.

As long as they don't wear 66, 99 or 69 I couldn't give a f***.

Good for you. I don't give a f*** what colors the team wears. Aesthetics are subjective.

Most normal hockey fans don’t care about the numbers that players have.

 

[VintageBure]

The rags seem to always give us a hard game. But I think petey and co start light the lamp in this one. 4-3 for the good guys.

If its not aesthetics wtf makes this specific combination of numbers objectively worse than other numbers...?

 

[David Bruce Banner]

Hey, 4+3=7 which is a cool number.

Can both teams lose this game? I'll go the next best thing...

4-3 Rangers in OT

Pettersson
Pearson
Poolio

The only stance I have on jersey numbers is I really want the team to start using 11 again to get the stank off it. Actually I kind of want them to let a total scrub wear it.

 

[The Iron Goalie]

Going to the game tonight, so I hope for a 5-4 game either way. Offense pls!

 

[Soups On]

So much cognitive dissonance. Would like to see a loss but I also wanna see Markstrom/Demko succeed and the young players to thrive.

4-3 loss, Rags with 40+ shots. Pouliot and Erickson on for all 3 goals against. Horvat, Pettersson, Boeser, Gaudette, and Goldobin with points. That's the compromise.

The number was unoffically retired due to the death of Wayne Maki; I’d rather they keep it that way and we leave the image of messier wearing it in the past.

How has Demko been looking all?? any chance this kid starts getting a few more games in net, or with a playoff race still here not much of a chance to showcase what he can do? thanks all..

Thanks for that, I didn't know!

Makes the messier situation even worse; I can forgive him for a lot of things but that’s one thing that’s unforgivable

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Give Loui 666.

Save that for Ferland after he gets a 6x6 contract this summer.

 

[Melvin]

Of course it's aesthetics. What else could it be? Brock Boeser looks f***ing cool sporting #6. It's all about appearance, which is completely subjective. Getting triggered by someone else's taste makes little sense.

I don't really care that much, and was joking with my previous post, but Hughes jersey would undoubtedly look better with a 2 on the back than something stupid like 43.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

He’s been alright. Had a God awful defense in front of him so taking that into account he’s been good. There’s no playoff race left, we’re out, no chance we make the playoffs. Demko should get more games now.

What's wrong with 69?

 

[Deeds26]

Tanev and Brisbois are in tonight per Green, so I'm gonna guess Pouliot and Schenn out? Or maybe Biega has a rest?

 

[Cupless44]

This coach and GM run this team so poorly. With 13 games left in they really need to be finding answers for next year, like a decision on Goldobin, who has played better of late. For what sensible reason is he sitting again so Granlund can be in the line-up??

Not even a question on a properly run hockey team that Granlund should be let go and not be resigned as an RFA. Why is he even playing in these last few games??

I think the fact that Goldobin is sitting says that we've already made a desicion on Goldobin.

And rightfully so .. he sucks. Can't win with him. Hoping to trade him for a pick at the draft or a prospect who like Goldy needs a scenery change. Maybe Ho Sang ?

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Two teams who'll be on the golf course by early April.......Over the past four seasons nobody has 'out tanked' the Canucks in March. Two seasons ago in Willie D's final season, the Canucks won in Minny in Brock Boeser's debut, and then lose eight straight to close out their schedule. So they're certainly capable.

Rangers went into OT with the Oilers the other night.....could easily see the same in tomorrow night's game....maybe 4-3 for the Canucks?

Agreed except one of the teams acquired 15 extra draft picks including 3 extra 1st rounders.

The other team is ours.

So sit him to lower any market value he has in favor of an RFA who has no market value?

Laughable we have a coach who actually puts Granlund on an NHL powerplay.

Goldy would probably lower his value if he player.

Granlund I think were trying to prop up as well to trade.

Either way, no point in sweating over both

Goldobin has zero value and this is the last organization that would trade for Ho-Sang. Hilarious that Benning’s best trade deadline to date (Burrows and Hansen trades) could result in nothing so quickly.
