Post-Game Talk: Habs tubthump Canucks - 7-3 (Horvat x2, Sutter)

[Grub]

Continue...I can’t see why you’d want to.

It's COVID, we have a lot of time on our hands.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

"I like the depth of our defence" - Jim Benning

Beeeeezbahhhhhh

 

[JiffyPB]

No, you can’t - but it’s the same playing field for everyone, and by today’s standards, that’s a blatant headshot and a terribly stupid play by Myers, who’s just taken himself out of the lineup too - not that he was going great, but I feel bad for the poor kids who are going to try and play defense on Saturday night in his place.

That feel when Jordie Benn is supposed to be our hero.

 

[I am toxic]

Myers is like a dumb giraffe but even dumber.

That's not fair. . .




. . . to dumber than dumb giraffes who are really dumb

 

[Angry Little Elf]

At least there’s a new episode of WandaVision tonight

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Feel bad for Chatfield. Gets to the pros, has a solid debut, immediately gets injured in the second game.

The Canucks with so many self inflicted wounds here. Bad turnovers, bad defensive coverages, bad checks...just so much bad.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

That was the most anxiety inducing game in years. I thought our defense was trash in the last games but this was another level.

Horvat should be 1C until Petey earns his spot back.

Horvat is our 1C period. Dude has 15 goals in his last 22 games.

 

[I am toxic]

That feel when Jordie Benn is supposed to be our hero.

Benn Kenobi, help us, you are our only hope

 

[Breakers]

Imagine taking 3 FRANKING MINORS in a game plus that cheap shot.

like just handcapping your team for 10% of the game because they are short handed for that at least.

like Eriksson was just invisible which can somewhat deal with.
Myers actively works against the team.

 

[sting101]

Myers being suspended will only help the Canucks D

depends which guy shows up

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

So.. how many actually good players do we have on this team?

We have enough "good" players to be a decent team. The problem is we don't have any average players. Things just fall right off a cliff after you get past the Canucks good players.

 

[vanarchy]

Horvat is our 1C. Dude has 15 goals in his last 22 games.

He’s just as solid away from the puck.

Petey is having issues skating and passing LET ALONE scoring.

 

[LordBacon]

“If we didn’t have any injuries
And all our players have career years we would’ve won”

 

[Zanon]

It’s time Pettersson gets demoted to the second line.

 

[TraderJim]

I love how Pettersson has no giveaways listed there.

 

[PG Canuck]

Imagine if we traded Horvat like many here wanted to do last year?

We'd have no one scoring goals.

That's my captain for a reason.

Blatant? Come on man any time they gotta pull out the iPads and slow it down to 1/10th speed to see if there was a head snap it’s not blatant.
Laying a hit isn’t a stupid play. Blocking a shot might also get him knocked out of the game.

 

[valkynax]

Benn Kenobi, help us, you are our only hope

Watching this game was more painful than a stab in the dick by a red light sabre.

Red. Not blue. RED, light saber.

 

[Get North]

Rathbone or Brisebois?

 

[VanJack]

Canucks now dead last in the league in goals against, and it's not even close. These are the kind of games that can get coaches fired. And if it was later in the season, that might be the result.

But in reality the Canucks have never been a very good defensive team under Green.....so it's time for a new voice behind the bench, regardless of when it comes.

 

[mathonwy]

Low effort PGT for a low effort team.

Discuss if you really want.

Your apathy is appreciated

 

[timw33]

can we buyout myers?

Almost buyout proof. Buyout this year would be savings of: $1.2MM, $3.2MM, 200k, then three more years of 888k cap hit.

 

[Bubbles]

We've emptied the taxi squad just to have 6 healthy defenseman...can we fill up the taxi squad with more?

 

[JiffyPB]

Imagine if we traded Horvat like many here wanted to do last year?

We'd have no one scoring goals.

That's my captain for a reason.

HoRVaT iS jUsT a ReALly goOd ThIRd liNEr.

 

[4Twenty]

Myers put a target on Quinn and Petey even more with that hit.
