Post-Game Talk: Pre-Season Game #5: Canucks 1 vs. Kings 4

...didn't work for me...

That sucks :/ Can't think of something else that'll work out for you through that then. Hope you can get it up

I mean you're not missing much to be honest...

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Jesus all these penalty

 

[WTG]

Can't really evaluate people here, ice is terrible.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

our PP stinks too now

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I'm starting to wonder if this is even a NHL team I'm watching.

 

[NuxFan09]

I'll tell you one thing. NHL 19 does a spectacular job of mimicking the real Canucks. I had to turn it off I was getting so frustrated. Playing as the Canucks on All Star level and either they, or I (or both), are AWFUL.

 

[Fire Benning]

Can they really justify keeping Granlund over Motte at this point?

The lighting in this terrible arena makes it feel like they're playing in a cave. CHL teams have better rinks than this.

 

[JT Milker]

Gudbranson on the 1st pp unit huh

 

[Josepho]

No matter how disappointing his development's been, Juolevi's stretch pass will always be nuts.

I like how both ends are dark because the lighting is set up for basketball.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Juolevi's looked decent tonight. The bright side is I think he'll definitely be an NHL defender. The downside is all he'll probably be is just an NHL defender...

 

[elwin316]

Love when the legal free stream doesn't work, but my trusty illegal stream works perfectly. Good ol' internet.

 

[geebaan]

Gudbranson on the first pp unit is an abomination

 

[Icebreakers]

If its free and legal, it sucks. If its free and good its illegal.

Outside of his absurdly bad camp last year, he's usually looked decent. Always leaves you wanting more though, especially when competing for loose pucks.

Why have a preseason game in such a terrible building? They might as well both go back and play in China. This is brutal. Canucks should have never have agreed to this arrangement.

Because, like, it's pre season...

Wasn't that long ago pre season games weren't even on TV.

It's not about the experience for us as viewers. It's about the team getting an actual evaluation in. This arena's lighting is trash, the ice is awful, the nets aren't staying on. They'd have done better to play this game in Penticton and we all know the game in Kelowna will look and play better than this.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

I want to marry this woman with the Make Hockey Violent Again hat...

 

[The Poacher]

Is that willies brother?

 

[hookshott]

Probably his waiver situation. Have to see what he’s got before you cut bait. He’d be a waiver wire claim because of his age and offensive skill set. Some team will roll the dice on him.

Have to see what you’ve got in him over what you already know in gagner. Gagner won’t be part of the solution going forward. Goldy might be but you need to know soon.

Dahlen played in a lower division in Sweden than EP. ideally was supposed to be in the ahl last year but contracted mono. Likely that’s his destination. See how he adjusts to the smaller rink.

Very few players get picked up from Waivers at this time of the year, as all teams are having the same problem as the Canucks and teams tend to value their own players more than pick-ups from other teams.....so players, like Markstrom...and, in this case, Goldobin, sneak through. Also, if a team does pick up a player, they have to waive one of their own, which also reduces the possibility of teams picking up someone from waivers, at this time.

I'm at the game, the lighting in person is fine. The ice, however, is garbage. It's still wet from when the zambonis went over it to clean it.

 

[Canucks LB]

So massive preseason for the kids, dahlen! Juolevi! Gaudette! Lind!! Virtanen!! Whos gonna stand out and play great and steal/earn a spot.

f***ing motte(good for him tho)

What a brutal preseason, at least EP has been as good as advertised thank god

 

[Nomobo]

The play by play is awful, makes it even less watchable.
