There is no explanation to Nighty's stupid request. Just to stir stupidity. Thankfully he'll never be an NHL coach or GM...

You have miles to go before you reach mediocre.

You remind me of a Teacher of mine once said to a classmate who kept making the most asinine contributions to the conversation:

“You make it really difficult to underestimate you.”

The guy had no idea what it meant, he thought it was a compliment

Management's first mistake looking like the addition of Lindholm.
- manvanfan

Mistake? You think Lindholm is bringing the team down? Is it ever a mistake bringing in talented players?

Tomorrow in class you can explain it to him. 👍

More like not the answer. I’m not putting it on Lindholm. Finding a fit for him while others struggle isn’t helping.

If resorting to dump ins Z could crash & bang & be a net front monster. Pretty good speed for a huge body.

Z plays roughly 17 minutes a night on average. Are you suggesting he plays more in a duel roll or are you dressing Z as a winger and dressing a D replacement? If dressing a seventh D man, who?

If 7 D Juulsen is in. If 6 D just a shift here & there when RT doesn’t like the flow of the game.

7 D with Juulsen in gives all 3 L & R D pairings. Won’t miss DiGi.

Another 2 days off before the last 6 game homestand in 13 days. No excuse to be tired.

Time to ramp it up for the stretch drive & go into the PO’s playing 60min hockey. Nothing else other than getting the sad PP clicking.

It’s Sunday….woo-hoo!

Maybe RT should take a play out of Green's book and practise them hard for a few days. Oh wait he did that and they still look like trash. lol

How did the 11.6 million dollar Swede look last night?


- LordHumungous

Not very good, even when he was on ice with Miller and Boeser.

Also, there was a reason why Hronek was a -2 on the night. Not sure what happened to Tocchet's meritocracy, but a few players have been struggling of late, yet their minutes haven't been reduced.

Yep appears Tocchet's doghouse only affects certain players.

lol well done.

Av's look lethal when they decide to be. Pretty crappy back check by Drai on the OT winner too lol.

This is what separates champions from wannabes. Crosby McKinnon Toews eg. and a host of others just don't quit on plays.

Agreed

If nothing else the hot & cold stretches since the ASG probably means new faces next year. Gonna be interesting on which UFA’s are back & what new ones are signed.

Agreed

They were showing with videos and still photos what a terrible lazy game Draisaitl played, he was minus three. Not good enough for a team with big expectations heading into the playoffs.

Your boy Pouty is now on pace for a 95 point season

The past two games EP40 has looked terrible, just not generating anything offensively and playing a perimeter game. In hindsight not picking up a scoring winger to play with him was a huge miss by Allvin and Rutherford. Lindholm is a nice player but he wasn’t the right player to get imo.

Pettersson excels when he’s with talented players and he can use his shot, creativity and passing skills. Love Hoglander but he’s a middling player at best and he’s a north / south guy. Canucks need top six wingers!!

They're going nowhere with Skinner in net.
