Post-Game Talk: Canucks defeat Ducks | 6-2 | Junior, Hronek, Boeser, Garland, Joshua, & Sasson | The Kids Are All Right

[Vector]

these young guns just don’t know any better!

 

[Flik]

Missed the game, whoops!

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Canucks and badly timed injuries, name a more iconic duo.

Those 4:30 were fun - let the Ducks dictate too much outside of that, but overall, a hard game to complain about. Nice to see so many of the farm hands hit the scoresheet.

Hope they saved some in the tank for tomorrow. It’s going to be a tall order to play Vegas.

Like I said meaningful games in March! Kids proving they belong in the show is massive for next season.

Here's a good job to...

Jonathan, Garland, Boeser, Suter, Kiefer, Victor, Thatcher, Forbort, Teddy, Raty, Max, Jake, Dakota, Linus, Elias, Marcus, Quinn, Drew, Filip.

EDIT: Forbort is such a Cletus family-esque name.

 

[God]

7 straight wins incoming

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Definitely jacked for D Petey for getting his first goal. Nice for it to come in a win, too - not like poor Sasson whose first came in that brutal loss to Boston. At least Sasson has gotten some nice ones since then.

I can't believe I am the 8th post 3 hours later. Not really happy that we won, but that was pretty predictable. What do we figure, end up with the 15th pick?

 

[EpochLink]

I'll be post 9, yeah this team stumbled out the gate.
Looks like we will finish with a .500 record but we really fumbled this year.

Ah well, what can you do.

With weather like this, and a season like we just had, I don't blame our fanbase for bailing on a game like today's

 

[Canuckle1970]

This was a good bounce-back game. Let's face it, NHL players aren't into tanking, just fans.

Damn, 2 games remaining with Vegas. Just no more injuries, please.

Win every f***en game left to spite the assets

Nope. 32nd pick.

This place use to be busy even during the benning days and now...

Sad times

 

[FuzzyTitus]

Just jumping in. Not sure if it's been mentioned. But in a 6-2 win how the F is Quinn a minus? Bizarro world today.

Cant imagine there's many (if any) lopsided wins where he's a minus.

The last full game I watched was against the Kraken. It cured me of paying more attention. The day was excellent and goals by junior and Max assassin. Good times.

The board did just torch thousands of profiles.

Just before this game?

Nope, I checked. Other games after the purge had the usual activity

I can't stand this shit*

* who am I kidding, I luuuuuv this shit

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Went to the game.

Terrible start.

Unreal series for the next 5 goals.

Bit dicey in moments during the 2nd.

Took it home in the 3rd.

Really liking some of the young kids.

I’ll chime in only because it seems people want this

Yay team

Of the young guys, the most impressive aside from EP2 was Linus Karlsson. His last 10 games have just been excellent - he's around the puck a ton, puck management is great, is involved physically, is consistently a positive to have on the ice. If he can maintain this he's a regular next season.

Mancini has probably exceeded expectations so far but he had a bit of a scrambly mess of a game yesterday.

EP2 is a regular NHL player, full stop.

This is the benefit of getting coachable players. Individual faults.. or lagging skills (checklist casual fan items)

Guys that manage themselves and push the play forward.
