Nuck fans thought the Forbort Desharnias pairing would be amazing because "wow they're big!" Meanwhile people with brains could see that pair as a problem from a mile away.
With Vinny we had Kulak who skates like the wind and defends with strong positioning and strong reads. They complimented each other well. Forbert and Vinny are too much of the same thing.

It’s not too bad, it’s similar, but not quite as good, as NFL Redzone, which is the best thing since the invention of ketchup. ;) But it’s a good start, great way to watch multiple games.

It reminds me of NHL Live in the US. Love the format. Wish it was on every night. It’d kill Sportsnet which is a good thing.

3 points for Elias Lindholm tonight, 2 points for Zadarov, both of these guys were among the best Canucks in the Edm-Van series ... think Vancouver is going to regret letting them both walk.

Celebrini is the real deal. He has that McDavid quality of having very fast puck moving that always seem to go to the right spots.

From the bench (didn't get the +). And the goal was a pass a Sharks player perfectly deflected up past the goalie.

Broberg still carrying his luck from last playoffs. Although, somehow Blues down 3-1 to the Sharkies.

All good. Leagues best player TJ Pilsner will get infinity points with infinity hits to make up for it. Every single rush up the left side when the Canucks need a goal late, slap shot goal is automatic.

Celebrini with the 1st goal of the game and also has an assist already
He's looking good. Really i like him more than Bedard already. SJ running the Blues right out of the rink in 2nd period. Just completely on top of them and outskating them.

Not sure why Kostin isn't in as he scored a couple in preseason. But this is definitely a deeper Sharks lineup than last year. Looking like a .500 club. Blues going nowhere tonight. Broberg and Holloway are on 2nd unit PP so they're really trying to make these guys happen.

He circles around like Denis Savard. Some will remember that name. Kid is gonna be good. Circling away from defenders leaving them in their undies. Pretty good vision, not just on the two pts but he's making plays happen. If one drawback is he's sometimes trying plays that are going the other way but thats the cost/benefit in trying some fancy stuff.

TJ Pilsner? The most elite 2-way forward in the league. Master of PDO. Shut down McDavid last playoffs (32% SF%, 42% xGF, 50% GF vs McDavid). Always scores the key goals late. Wears funny designer shirts to spark unknown goalies to play like Vezina contenders. You know the guy.

Jack Hughes is a helluva player.

I missed the injoke on TJ Miller. This musta been one brewing here for awhile. At least he's not Petey Carlsberg.

Sorry I only edited my post to that after CanadasTeam99 replied calling him TJ Gretzky.

Haha, I got to see classic Codi Ceci just now, but playing for another team.

Goalie that took his team to game 7 of the finals Stuart Skinner for the lowly MacKenzie Blackwood? :) Every time I watch the Sharks it reminds me of Ullmark in Buffalo, only the Sharks players are even worse.

oooh, Blackwood lets in a softie to ruin my image of him.

no sarcasm....I find Jack Hughes my favorite player to watch after McDavid, and Quinn hughes is not far behind,
That Trio are very likable and f***ing really good at hockey.
IMO will turn out as the best trio of brothers to play in the NHL.
