GDT: GM 2 | Vancouver Canucks @ Edmonton Oilers | 6:00PM PST | SPAC

[Breakers]

Virtanen sucks

 

[iFan]

Especially with this season you can’t fall asleep on the 2nd game of a back to back! The players look like they took the night off

 

[Peen]

4 more years of this shit at 6 million

The biggest albatross on this team is Myers without question now that Ferland’s career is over

Everyone else is done either this or next year

Need to find a sucker for Myers

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Virtanen sucks

Legit didn't know he was playing these 2 games.

 

[Peen]

Another bad defensive play from Hoglander

 

[vanarchy]

Another god awful turnover.

 

[tantalum]

Myers looks worse this year than he did last year and he sucked last year too. Looks unplayable right now.

That tends to be what happens with players in decline.

Would be foolish not to think the same possibility for Edler and Hamonic as well.

edit: Or maybe the time he was spending with Virtanen in the off season was about Virtanen teaching Myers his workout regimen of poker, cyber-stalking Twitter women, and the Krutov hot dog diet.

 

[Hansen]

What does Jake need to get back to being the shit disturber he was as a rookie, even if this is all he is as a player skills wise when he was an agitator he was so much more valuable

 

[M2Beezy]

This team is missing Loui Eriksson

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

Virtanen sucks

If only Benning swallowed his pride and traded him with Eriksson. We actually could have kept Toffoli or Tanev. As far as I'm concerned, either Virtanen figures it out this year or we need to move on.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

The biggest albatross on this team is Myers without question now that Ferland’s career is over

Everyone else is done either this or next year

Need to find a sucker for Myers

Maybe if Ray Charles is the GM of Seattle they will take him

 

[Ozone]

Credit where credit is due: Oilers came to play tonight.

..and that McAngry guy was pretty good too.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

This team is missing Loui Eriksson

Bo is already crying. He knows what's coming.

 

[JiffyPB]

This team is missing Loui Eriksson

As much as I wanna laugh, I could see green swapping MacEwan for him to get a penalty killing winger.

 

[PaulD]

I get that it was Hoglander that blew the clear/had the turnover, but what the hell was Tyler Myers doing lmao.

Tyler didn't know how to react to the imploding Hoglander

 

[Ozone]

Maybe if Ray Charles is the GM of Seattle they will take him

Helen Keller is still at the helm...

 

[Peen]

canucks have gotten away w numerous too many men penalties today

 

[Johnny Canucker]

scary thing is, we should have lost both games.

look at the scoring chances in these 2 games combined.

 

[mossey3535]

Part of that is a systems issue. Constant pressure against, odd man rushes and collapsing defense going into a tight box. The coaching sucks and this team has too many players that have no business being in the NHL.

Our offense has too much crap and the D is still a train wreck.

Even Markstrom looked vulnerable in many games last year. That happens when facing a constant barage of shots and being pushed out of a rhythm.

Sure, but those things aren't what I comment on usually. You can play the right way 100% and still lose as a goalie. But IMO he's not doing everything he should be doing to give himself the best chance to perform. You have to do those things, and do them all the time to be a true #1. Those things are independent of how well or badly the team in front of you is playing.

 

[vanarchy]

I hope Green isn’t too hard on Hog. The kid is adjusting and it should be somewhat expected.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

As much as I wanna laugh, I could see green swapping MacEwan for him to get a penalty killing winger.

Or Sutter. They're both equally useless.

 

[Fatass]

Gonna have ugly ones.

 

[JiffyPB]

Laine throws years long tantrums about playing with Bryan Little, a 45-55 point 2C.

Meanwhile Horvat plays with utter dogs**t for the last 2 years and Empty Net Uncle Loui might be coming back. Not a peep.

 

[Nucker101]

Hog will probably get sat next game after this period’s performance

 

[vanarchy]

That first Calgary game is going to be weird, boys.

 

[Bougieman]

Horvat and Pettersson have been pretty much invisible all night. Can't have that with Miller out. That's like having most of your best players missing.
