  • 1st in the league
  • 7-point division lead
  • +41 goal differential
  • 4th-leading scorer (Nikita Kucherov)
  • 25 wins to our 16
  • probably sick and tired of finding ways to lose to us (1 2 3)


Vancouver has jumped Dallas in the standings and will remain there, as everyone below Vegas in the wildcard race is idle on the 17th

Just watched the first video...holy crap that was a dark time compare to now.
WD behind the bench, best prospect was Boeser and Juolevi with Brock struggling a bit in his second year in NCAA, also who the hell was number 46????

...Canada, eh?
This game has "dose of reality" written all over it

Probably... but for the meantime I will ride this unicorn-dragon-train of a team to the end of this rainbow!

Probably lose, but I'm gonna hope we take this one... because win streaks are nice. ;)

4-3 overtime decision for the Nucks.

Let down game for Tbay after that titanic clash w. The Jets tnt.


I think Canucks get at least 1 point out of it.


Elias needs a point vs Tbay to tie Pavel Bure's franchise record of 8 consecutive games w. A point by a rookie.

Our win against Tampa earlier this year was one of the more unexpected victories we've had - a come-from-behind in the 3rd period, no less.

Coach Green - "Anders, I've got good news for you - you're getting a start."
Nilsson - "That's great coach!"
Coach Green - "You'll be starting against Tampa."
Nilsson - "I'm sorry, did you just say I'm starting against Atlanta? They don't even have a team!"
Coach Green - "No. I said you'll be starting against Tampa."
Nilsson - "Oh. Oh, that's much worse..."

heh..

Yeah... I would prefer Markstrom tomorrow, Nilsson vs the Blues, then Markstrom for HNiC.

When you play the guy in both of the back to back.. you are screaming you think he gives you the best chance to win... Playing Nilsson now vs Tampa seems like a chumpish move...
