Post-Game Talk: Jets def. Canucks - 4-3 (OT) (Pettersson x2, Sutter)

[I am toxic]

Well, it's basically a tie.

Better, really, because it keeps the boys hungry.

Knowing that it's close will make them want it even more.

Best possible outcome.

This game was perfect.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

I'll look at it this way, it's one step closer to getting rid of Benning. Silver lining.

You don't follow FA on twitter huh

 

[Bubbles]

And no 1040 to call and complain to

Rob Fai Nation is live streaming on Youtube right now.

Meh, win some and lose some.

Decent game but we should have been able to lock down the win in the 3rd prior to giving up 3 straight goals.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Draft one of:

Beniers
Hughes
Power
Clarke

Fire Benning, Weisbrod and Green

And this season will be a success.

LOL Holtby and Demko have almost identical stats. Their results are essentially the same. You can quibble about Holtby being overpaid but it's amusing to see so many feelings about him expressed in this thread.

No, he wasn't good tonight, I'll say more when I review the goals because I was doing calculations for school rather than really watching.

 

[JiffyPB]

Also, worth repeating again.

Brock Boeser is 2nd in league goal scoring and all he does on the PP is play catch with Miller or pass to Bo. Some Big Brain meme stuff there.

 

[Lawzy]

I can see why so many teams gave up on Miller. All the skill in the world isn't enough to make up for a crap attitude and lazy play.

Also, worth repeating again.

Newell Brown hasn't had an original thought since 2010. He's entirely coasting off good players.

McJesus is gonna score about 20 goals on us

Miller might be the most undeserving PPG player in the league.

 

[Peen]

OJ was looking good with 12 minutes through 2 but only plays 1 minute of the third. Tough with the penalties but just gets lost in the shuffle.

they can only win so many games when qh and oj are huge liabilities at es and edler can’t effectively defend in transition anymore

really need another nate schmidt in the top four

 

[thekernel]

Nucks are three points back of the Habs but they have played five more games. Playoffs aren’t going to happen unless the team goes on a huge run.

I mean, I don't think the Habs are very good at all, I'm not convinced they'll make the playoffs either. But if they do, it'll be because our goaltending gave it to them

 

[wonton15]

Did Jake even play? I honestly don't remember a single shift.

It's amazing how Roussel continues to stay in the lineup ahead of MacEwen (and even Hawryluk/Michealis).

I mean it won't change the outcome of the game but c'mon lol

we were chasing a lead once again, so his ice time obviously got cut down. Blame the team, poor Hoglander and Juolevi. Those guys getting punished because of the team.

 

[VanJack]

And honest effort by the Canucks, but bottom line is they got a single point and gave up four points to a team they'll have to somehow beat out of a playoff spot. You keep losing these two and three game series and sooner or later you run out of runway, and that's coming up quickly.

On to the Oilers for a two game set, and you're almost hoping for a sweep in regulation for the Oilers so you can finally put this season to bed. I'd really like to see some lineup changes. You have to start setting the table for next season.

 

[Fatass]

2-2-2 in our last 6. 2-3-2 since our season turned around.

Team has definitely looked better but that won't get them close.

UNLESS THE plan is to get a top three pick. When was the last time we picked top three? The Twins?

 

[EpochLink]

Another OT lose, only 8 wins in 22 games.
That’s bad.

 

[JiffyPB]

And no 1040 to call and complain to

"But son, we have TSN 1040 at home."

The TSN 1040 at home:

Why the f*** is this a thing?

I don't know PLD is just a handsome fella

Have you checked the predicted points needed???? We need to legit play above .800 hockey from now on lol.

 

[Peen]

Post game w ROB FAI and John Abbott

He can't score goals from behind the net. What genius would put him there?

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Miller might be the most undeserving PPG player in the league.

They need to move him while his value is still high.

Could easily get a 1st and a quality prospect.

 

[MS]

Why exactly did we spend $4.3MM on Holtby?

Someone please explain it to me, haven't gotten a reasonable explanation since the signing. Does not move the needle for the team.

He was good 3 years ago and has a Cup ring. Typical Jim Benning pro scouting.

It’s obviously not completely his fault whatsoever, but I have seen completely enough of Holtby, He just gives me absolutely zero confidence, everygame.

Honest question, is Holtby actually any better than Louis Domingue?
