Post-Game Talk: Canucks 1 @ Wild 0 | Nilsson trolls Markstrom + Bustanen plays like Rantanen

[Dissonance Jr]

Is it too soon to start dreaming of ways to get Burrows back at the deadline for our big playoff run?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Screw the tank and lottery
I'm enjoying this until it ends

 

[PG Canuck]

At least Virtanen scored to win it and not some useless veteran.

 

[Ozone]

What a ***** comment to make. Then vanishes like a fart in the wind.

Wasn't that a song???

You get into that 16 hole and anything can happen. It's a whole new season

 

[CherryToke]

Dorsett coming to burn down your village

This is my vote for the main board thread name.

 

[Hollywood Burrows]

I defy anyone to find an easier 5-game roadtrip on any team's schedule this season. What a bunch of trash.

But at least the Canucks took care of business! You need to pick up these points early in the year if you're going accomplish your goal of getting owned in the first round of the playoffs.

What would people have said 3 months ago if we said that Virtanen would be one of the best players in the preseason, would stick with the Canucks, would be the RW on the Sedin line, would score in Back to back games, AND the Sedins would have a combined zero assists on Virtanen's goals?

And that Vanek would be a good signing, that Dorsett would look valuable.

Last year, Tryamkin should be sent to Utica, then WTF he is unhappy and going to the KHL.

Edler is past his prime, make him give up his NTC.

Pouilot is a waste of a contract spot. So what if he was drafted high, he is not an NHL player.

Gedbranson is not an NHL player.

The fact is that this fan boys site is eager to throw shit at the fan, give up too early. Surprisingly, most of this years free agent signing look good, and Virtanen actually might be the best player available when he was picked.

And the Sedins should have been traded in ... 2004? ... for a bag of pucks.

Amazing how HF fans don't remember how wrong they were sometimes.

 

[Catamarca Livin]

does not seem too thrilled with the linesman's apology. Lol This team does compete. It was an even game that could have gone either way but the forward depth is pretty good. At no time do I think are lines are overmatched. Well with Derrick P and Biega I worry a bit. Derrick passes really well and plays his position okay.

 

[hellstick]

Turns out we win 4 games on our road trip.

I want Nilsson to give Markstrom some of his shutout magic. Let's ride Nilsson another game and see if he loses like in Boston.

 

[Ace of Hades]

Stick Virtanen with the Sedins. Let them continue to mentor him.

I hope you can see that this is a massive strawman and isn't actually a good point at all.

This board is made up of individuals with individual opinions. To project those thoughts across the entire board then to argue against it is just creating a great big strawman.

 

[Megaterio Llamas]

There's just no substitute for a strong foundation. Some teams have one, and some wish they did.

 

[CherryToke]

Green is very easy to lip read.

We finally have some coaching behind the bench, not some mustache ‘roll 4 lines’ bullshit we’ve been seeing.

 

[thepuckmonster]

If Nilsson gets a “what shall not be named” 2x in 3 starts, this is gonna be Markstrom:

* for the M2B age group of posters, this is Leonardo DiCaprio and not - in fact - William Nylander.

Marky rn

Hahahaha oh man, this is why we can't have nice things

But muh 2 games of revenue...

 

[elwin316]

Actually pretty decent short term forecast

 

[terrible dee]

No sir, I do not like it, not one bit, please do not put that on my plate.

We need a high pick this year and probably next if we EVER want to win a cup.

If we move up the standings now, we will be a one and done two and done team for several years, maybe be rebuilding again in maybe a decade...another 3-4 years for that

This team might not sniff a cup in my lifetime

There’s still a lot of time left to fall off the rails, January is coming.

I wait all year to give Aqua his springtime bonus,

Just knowing he has LESS money over the last few years has really been weighing on my conscious

Tanking is dead, only guarantees 4th overall. Just relax and enjoy the rare feeling of winning.

 

[clunk]

Gonna laugh my ass off when this team makes the playoffs but won't sell out Rogers Arena.

So is November and December.
