Back to back morning eastern road games again?

WTF is with the schedule this season?

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

They'd better come out like their asses are on fire - our top guns especially.

Second time this season too.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I'll miss this game completely - driving to Hazelton for a double header of games for my son and back.

NFL Superbowl weekend means Sunday was always going to be a morning game.

Also I heard a rumor that our mod Vector influenced the scheduler's to do more weekend morning games. He likes pairing beers with egg mcmuffins.

 

[Slapshot_11]

They're gonna be sleepwalking this game so I expect a loss

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Hopefully they can go a PP without giving up a short handed goal in the first.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Haha. Reminds me of our series with the Kings in 2010, where our PK was getting lit the hell up. The Twins stepped in to join the PK with a simple goal - let's get through ONE penalty without giving up a goal. And then they did. And it ended up being a huge momentum shift in the series.

The line up;
Well EP, Lindy and Mikheyev with Cole and Myers were bad. Cole was especially bad.
So they should not be a 5 man group again.

That means Mikheyev will be sat out because Tocchet says so, use your imagination for some of his blanket comments.

Zadorov will get reduced time because he wasn't on the ice for any goals against. Or he didn't score on his two chances. Or ????

Lots of moving defence players around.

DeSmith or DeMco? I think DeMco just because that last game ha giant brain farts in it.

I guess it’s nice to watch morning games but I’ll have nothing to do at night now

SB weekend. Too bad the Canucks have to play both days. How it goes. At least for the Was game, they will have traveled after the Wings game and be in bed at a regular time.

Kind of forget that on SB weekend, any Sunday games would be early ones, thus in a B2B, Canucks would have to be playing early both days.

It is what it is. Odd schedule where you play the other conference teams in a home/away so close together. Wings are the Nucks first opponent when they get back for their mini 2 game homstand.

I like their line up. That’s a really good forward group.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Wont be an easy one for the Canucks..They need to shake off that clunker in Boston..Key here, is for our best players to be our best players (which wasn't the case last night)...Lindholm,Pettersson,Boeser all had quiet games in Boston

 

[VanJack]

Weekend back-to-back against two teams desperate for points in the frenzied Eastern Conference playoff race. And a 10 a.m. (Pacific time) start both Saturday and Sunday.

A sweep would be nice--but a split more likely. Hopefully the Canucks can use that Boston clunker as motivation. But the Wings will come at them in waves. Whether it's Demko or DeSmith, they're going to have to stand on their heads.

 

[Bourne Endeavor]

After that disastrous Boston game, I'm glad in a way we're facing two desperate teams at silly hours. Maybe it'll smack some sense into everyone that they can't just sleep their way through and hope for a third period comeback.

Have to eat some crow on Stevie Y in Detroit. I wasn’t a fan of a lot of his signings the last few years. Some of the contracts still aren’t great, but he’s filled the team out in key positions and with a lot of 2 way players. Kind of like what Allvin did but spent more money. They also seem to want to graduate players slowly, instead of just giving players spots when they aren’t ready and letting them develop bad habits. Ottawa and Buffalo should take notes.

Seems like he's put a good cohesive team together, which should be commended..Does he have the young elite pieces to be a future contender..?.Not convinced about that.

I'm still skeptical it'll work out like he's planned but I get what he's doing and most of the players he's targeted are good players on reasonable contracts.
