Pre-Game Talk: Hawks @ Canucks | Saturday 21/11/15

[Eddy Punch Clock]

Is Vrbata playing?

If thats what you call playing... yeah he probably is.

 

[DL44]

I feel a stop-the-bleeding type push from the Canucks on Saturday... and resounding win.
But it would be an empty win because they are rested and at home... so it really won't count... so they might as well not win.
I predict a 3-2 loss. Canucks drop a 2-1 lead after 40 minutes.

@VanCanucks:
Sedin-Sedin-Hansen
Baertschi-McCann-Higgins
Burrows-Horvat-Virtanen
Prust-Cracknell-Dorsett

Edler-Tanev
Hamhuis-Weber
Sbisa-Bartkowski
Hope Hutton is ok and replace Weber on game day.

Those are interesting forward sets. Like the combos on the McCann and Horvat lines. At least seems to put McCann and Virts in good positions and with good support (which is really my only concern these days).

[Evolu7ion]

Lol... so the Canucks are actually going to roll out a defensive pairing of Sbisa-Bartowski against the Blackhawks?... Oh boy.

 

[Ozone]

Hope Hutt is fine.

New lines everyday..

At least we got our super duper fourth line reunited

I really don't see how we can win this. Only advantage we have over them is maybe defense.

I don't get it. We move Higgins off his natural wing for what? Why don't we put Burrows at RW and keep Higgins at LW? At least Burrows has shown to be a good player on the right side, something Higgins hasn't done.

You must be joking right.....
Keith Seabrook Hjalmarrson Daley
and TVR is playing like a top 4.

 

[PM]

And we have all three of the stooges playing unless Hutton recovers. I feel for whichever goalie gets this start.

 

[thepuckmonster]

The defense is going to kill me.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

The defense is going to kill me.

It's been like this since last season.
Stanton & Bieksa aren't an upgrade on Bartkowski....

 

[VanJack]

Let the unofficial tanking continue...Hawks win easily....'Nucks now fourth in the Pacific and dropping like a rock....not too early to start checking those lottery numbers and who we might get.

 

[Bgav]

Expect that second line to barley play.
