Figured they stayed the night in Stl after the game. Distance plus time zone being ahead. Guess they plan on practicing after the flight which I recall is how the sleep doctors recommended.

 

[VanJack]

The Devils have the Canucks number.......and Jack always seems to best Quinn in the battle of Hughes brothers.

They're going to have a find a way to grind it out.....but the Devils speed and finesse will create fits for the embattled Canucks blueline. This is a game where either Demko or DeSmith is going to have to absolutely steal one.

Then it's on to MSG to face the high-flying Rangers on Monday....and the next night in Pittsburgh for their third game in four nights. Shaping up clearly as their toughest road-swing of the year.

Expecting more from the Canucks core players this game..Other than Demko, I thought that Hughes,EP,Miller,Boeser all could have been better against the Blues.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Off the top of my head, I don't think our visits to New Jersey have gone very well for us for a number of years. Hope this game bucks the trend.

They have two Hugheseseseses, we only have one, the deck is stacked against us.

Hoglander Kuzmenko out
Friedman and Soucy in as forwards

That can be said for the Canucks against A LOT of teams.

iirc last season's devils game in jan/feb made me give up on boeser

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Devils playing tonight at home against the Hawks…Might be a slight advantage tomorrow for the Canucks ..They’re going to need all the help they can get.

 

[M2Beezy]

Hughes will be key to this matchup

NJ has owned the Canucks in recent memory. Even if the Devils were to play short handed the entire game, I wouldn't feel confident in a Canucks victory.

 

[MS]

NJ having an intense game tonight in the first game of a B2B probably is a good thing.

Our loose streak against the s is bound to come to an end. Also is souchy coming back soon ? We were 10-1 with him in the lineup.

New Canucks fan?

Lol that guy was suppose to be a Marchand (without the offence) for us.

 

[Josepho]

I only recognize Byron Bitz as a fun puckdoku pick (not as fun as Mike Fountain though who I only know because of a Mayday episode)

 

[Wry n Ginger]

Hoglander Kuzmenko out
Friedman and Soucy in as forwards

Add to that Myers out
DeSmith in on defense
