No pressure to score. 200' game baby!

🥱🥱🥱, must be tough always being negative and critical, just can’t enjoy anything without cutting it down. I guess it’s because you’re so successful at being a nobody that there is no one that can compare to your skills.

You the man. 🦸‍♂️

Geno Smith is a big part of the problem, maybe also the OC. Time to see what Sam Howell can do. Failing that they get good high drafts pick they won't trade away like...

Geez dude what's with the insults...you are better than that man. Pettersson deserves criticism regardless of how Lefty and a few others are spinning it. He needs out of this funk and soon. It's not a question of 'positive vs negative' it's just fact man.

Anyhoo the BOA on here with the wing night crowd hopefully a burner of a game. Flames are paying 1.5 to win at home...

Nice to see they battled back to tie it but honestly against the Rams never should have gotten to that point. Hopefully they pull it out in OT...

The organization seems comfortable.

Hey no insults just observations of the posts you make, I have not seen one post that is positive in nature, always critical, regardless of lefty and others. I like to look at the positives, they won, showed resilience, didn’t quit but the only thing you can come up with is criticism. And I don’t need to be better, I’m good, I think you need to accept life as it comes and maybe stop being negative, you don’t control the situation so 🤷‍♂️ what gives.

I just want to see the Pettersson back that we all know and love. You know that guy that came in and took the league by storm firing clappers top shelf and rink coverage like a MOFO. That guy. Not this version which he clearly has a confidence issue going on and looks totally disengaged most times. It's almost like he is worrying TOO much about criticism. Just play and let it fall into place. TBH if you took the last 20 players of Pettersson's caliber that have entered the league not ONE has gone on a 40 game 5/5 slump like this...not one. Let it sink in. Maybe he's playing injured still or something but man we need that kid at a top level to succeed as a franchise not a '50 point' version of Petey because the club wins a few games here and there lol.

Now I'm not saying he doesn't care I think he does...deeply if not too much. It just needs to be fixed and I'm not sure how Tocchet is going to 'fix' it by burying Petey on the Third line with Garland and Hogs. Some of this is on Tocchet too not just Petey. Get him in a position to succeed and get him going. We need the 100mph slap shot bar down Petey not this 50 point version IMO. Right now all we are getting is muffins towards the net and at 11.6 mil he needs to get going. Hoping it all works out.

I totally understand what your issues are with Pettersson, yes he is definitely struggling with something, he is engaged, in his board battles I think he has been holding his own with the opposition. When he is in open ice, he is too quick to look for a safe pass, and he needs to move his feet and not be stationary during these moments.
But there was a game last night that had several good and poor performances by the entire group, more than #11.6 worth to comment about. I am glad there is depth when other players struggle, Suter, Heinen, Sherwood all played great.
Hopefully the top players show up in Anaheim.

The depth has helped the execution short comings of top players. Though you see the confidence issue when those top players have time and overthink what to do.

Debrusk and Petey scored both their goals just one timing no thinking involved. The shots were hard and accurate. It’s a process for sure to get the opportunity to score. The part on execution is processing it out in your head. Do it like muscle memory and it works for the top talent.

You honestly provide nothing positive or substantial to these blogs. It's either tearing down the players, or tearing down the team, or making fun of posters who haven't even engaged with you. Like Makita said, it's just a stream of negativity and criticism.

You levy constant criticism of Petey and want him to play like he used to... but guess what, he doesn't read this stupid (frank)ing site. He's never gonna see or care about what you write. If you hate the player(s) and the team as much as your posting suggests, maybe just stick with the Oilers. Your life would be happier for it.

It's the Liberal way.

Centrists dude. Centrists. lol

Canucks have played 3 games against playoff teams, didn't fair so well against them, play several games against bottom feeders and play pretty meh, then you get Lefty saying it's about the process.

- Reubenkincade

I'm just throwing crap out there that it's only been what, ten games into the season. The team is not playing well wholistically, other than a few players who seem consistent, Garland and Hughes to be specific. Everyone else has been both good and poor at times.

And I agree 100%, the teams' had a soft schedule so far, if they continue to play like they are they will absolutely get their asses handed to them when playing better teams. Realistically they've only played against three good teams so far this year, the Tampa, Caroline and NJ games, the Florida game the Panthers were missing both Barkov and Tkachuk.

I'm still going to enjoy when they win though, I'm a fan of the team, can't help it. Unfortunately.

Centrists dude. Centrists. lol

Petey will continue to be under the microscope until he gets back to where he should be. Sugar coating his performances under the guise of what I post as 'positive or negative' is a you issue dude. I skip over your 'blog' and most posts...just skip over mine if you can't handle the responses.

And while we are being honest here and on the topic of your 'blog' don't you think it's maybe time that you moved on and let a proper blogger take over? To be quite blunt you provide no more than a few paragraphs of what Michael did and highlites...which anyone can look up on their own. Just some food for thought perhaps.

So in turn the criticism will continue as long as it's deserved and not just Petey lol. I've been a Nucks fan probably a hell of alot longer than you and I certainly don't need the likes of yourself telling me who to cheer for or be critical of. Cheers man.

Nobody is sugar-coating his performances. But coming in here and hashtagging and poopting all over him every game isn't doing anything. It's just annoying and childish.

I'm more than happy to not blog. It takes up more of my week than is worth what they pay. I've taken up the mantle to keep this small community afloat, not because I actually enjoy scraping things together for people. But maybe it's time I take a leave and let you have Michael's once-a-month blog, or Lea's once-ever blog to live with.
