Post-Game Talk: 2/8/18 | Canucks 2 at TBay 5

What a pansy ass call.

That's a puck battle.

 

[tantalum]

Wish we could package Granlund and Hutton to get Domi on the cheap.

I also wish Benning was another teams GM.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

No way Jose there playoff chokers the Jets dont even believe in winning playoff games

What doesn’t believe in winning playoff games even means

 

[Peen]

The optics for a coach benching a GM's big money signings are not good. It's how you ruin any job security.

The look on management to have Eriksson, Del Zotto, Granlund sitting puts your management team under the gun more so than when you bench Biega, and the young guys.

edit: I'm not in any way defending the move. Just seeing that as the only logic behind it. Green doesn't strike me as incompetent.

 

[2011 still hurts]

Domi and Horvat would be unreal together.

There were mainboard Canucks posters actually turning down a 1 for 1 Domi for Virtanen proposal

imagine that

 

[Ace of Hades]

I also wish Benning was another teams GM.

Preferably the Bruins or the Flames.

Edmonton's already taken care of with Chiarelli at the helm.

 

[geebaan]

Hahahahaha all you can do is laugh

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Cue the comeback!!!!

 

[M2Beezy]

Boeser needs a nother point please

 

[WTG]

That’s the part of keeping Vanek I don’t understand. He’s so bad defensively you would want him playing in an important game.

I think you could deploy him as a PP specialist and limit his icetime, just like Ganger was used by Columbus.

But for a playoff team, you are probably right. Whistles get tucked in the playoffs so having a PP specialist is less justifiable.

 

[Josepho]

Preferably the Bruins or the Flames.

Let's continue the tradition of Toronto taking random scraps from our team.

 

[Ozone]

C'mon man!

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Vaneknand Gudbranson to Edmonton for 1sr round pick???
If only JB is smart

 

[Ace of Hades]

I think it's all about the manner we lost that was ass.

Dowd seems likely.

 

[polarbearcub]

Virtanen might be out of the NHL within 2-3 years at this rate. He's that bad

 

[tantalum]

Sabres close to 8points.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Virtanen might be out of the NHL within 2-3 years at this rate. He's that bad

Doubt it
Sutter still has a job in the nhl, and a fat contract

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Virtanen might be out of the NHL within 2-3 years at this rate. He's that bad

Another team will pick him up because of his draft position and then he'll have a Skille-like career.

 

[PG Canuck]

Baertschi + Granlund + whatever I don’t really care.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Doubt it
Sutter still has a job in the nhl, and a fat contract

Sutter is a name though

 

[TruKnyte]

Am I wrong tho?

I can't tell if you're trolling anymore or if you actually believe Boeser scoring on the PP means he's a worse player.

Boeser: 26 goals, 9 on the PP (34% of goals on the PP)
Ovechkin: 32 goals, 9 on the PP (28% of goals on the PP)
Malkin: 30 goals, 13 on the PP (43% of goals on the PP)
Tavares: 28 goals, 8 on the PP (28% of goals on the PP)



Looks like Boeser is around the same spot as the league leaders on goals. Guess they're all bad players.

I agree with the jist of your comment, but Granlund is definitely not making big money.

 

[Bad Goalie]

Both jokes throw in the Jets too well your at it. Maybe Buffalo and the Panthers (minus Luuu too)too 2 bub

C'mon kid wake up and smell the roses. Montreal has won 24 cups and 22 since 1927. One of the most successful franchise in professional sports history.
You can hate them. I have all my life and saw them win a ****load of those cups over teams I rooted for (any team in the finals against those bastards). However, you can't deny their position as the greatest franchise in NHL history.

Also, the Blues have been to the finals 3 times. Vancouver also 3? Neither has a Cup. In that they are both still equals.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Another team will pick him up because of his draft position and then he'll have a Skille-like career.

Or even worse he’ll redeem himself on another team under a smart management and coach

If that is the excuse, how spineless and cowardly.
