Post-Game Talk: Canucks WIN. Def. Kraken - 5-4 (Mikheyev x2, Kuzmenko, Pettersson, Garland)

[I Hart Conor Garland]

I honestly don't see the Canucks getting their first W for a while.

i hope you are proven to even have understated how bad it eventually can be

 

[Peen]

Canucks win today



Look at my boy

 

[canucksfan]

Eventually, I have to be correct. 3-2 Nucks. Demko with a big game.

 

[Sedinery]

If our moronic management team trades Hogs for Bear they better be fired immediately

Bear can’t even make the starting lineup for the Canes with our castoff playing in ahead of him

 

[Petey O]

A gutsy away win would be the way to turn the season around if they're going to do so. Something like a 3-2 victory where they actually hold onto the lead is something to build off of.

obviously wouldn’t make the trade either but i don’t like barometers like that

chatfield looked like nothing more than a 10th defenseman here but carolina has found use for him - should they have been like “nah, couldnt make it in vancouver”

Putting money against the Canucks this season has already made me enough to buy like 10 beers at Rogers

Yeah, I don't think Bear fits. I feel like our fanbase would turn against him really fast as well if Hogs was traded for him.

I don't think it'd be a good situation. I'm a huge fan of first nations players in this league. They're usually ridiculously tough and good players, but I feel like Bear would be put into a pretty bad situation, and he needs the opposite.

Is Hughes back ?

Why do you say that? I mean this fanbase is hell on EVERYBODY so he would naturally be under heavy scrutiny. I would do that trade, maybe if they threw in a pick...

 

[AppleHoneySauce]

Well late, but easy win. Seattles back up back up Funny joke name goalie with no skills. Even if Demko just mailed it in we probably still win.

Chatfield is one of those d-men that a team with a strong blueline overall will use to get by with but as playoffs approach will look to upgrade.

 

[Nucker101]

No one's gonna make the Studnicka thread?

 

[tantalum]

Would assume something like Hoglander to give them center ice depth. But seems a guy who has been wholly underwhleming the NHL.

Never mind see the trade: decent enough. Nothing for likely nothing deal. Get Dipietro moved to do him a solid. Messed his development up.

 

[Vector]

I will. Website is completely broken on my phone.

 

[Nucker101]

They gave up Dipietro and Myrenberg

 

[Coffee]

Shotty not

 

[wonton15]

That is a nothing trade. Myrenberg is progressing nicely but meh.

 

[mathonwy]

We are not winning 2 in a row until December.

I like your optimism.

 

[I Hart Conor Garland]

I am honestly really nervous about this game. Everything suggests that Seattle should win it, but it would be the most Canucks thing ever, as usual, to win one now. Seattle has never beaten Vancouver, and they are playing at home, and are currently in better form. The only hockey that gives me any pleasure anymore is seeing Aquilini embarrassed, so I really hope my pessimism about how this game is going to go is proven to be unfounded.

 

[wonton15]

They reek of desperation. Ethan Bear come on down

should have just salvaged the cap space and not qualified boeser, traded garland, or not signed mikheyev and then gone for marino with a 2nd and rathbone like i had been spamming all summer

sad

I actually might rather have Jim Benning lace up the skates on a PTO for our blueline.

 

[JumpierPegasus]

Honestly on the fence about just watching this mediocre TNF game instead of the Canucks...
