That is EXACTLY what Canuck fans told us would happen. No surprise. But if the season is a write-off, I'd rather see the workload distributed evenly like that 'cause it keeps our older core pieces healthier in the long run, and helps with the tank.
Gonna be a looooong one.
Yes, I recall that. WD celebrates hard work and thus Nate 'Crosby' Thompson is on the 2nd PP unit and played 18 frigging minutes last night...if WD was coaching the AVs and Landeskog
wasn't the hardest worker, he would take way his minutes and break up the best line in the NHL and play Matt Nieto with MacKinnon and Rantanen. I live 7 miles from Pepsi Center
and thinking of going to more AVs games this year, to see some good hockey. I typically only attend the 2 games the Kings play here. I went to one last month , vs Calgary and was in the
7th row...was a treat to see that top line. All top 10 draft picks. And right now, defenseman Cale Makar is scoring 2 pts a game in college this year (is said to be the best player in collge right now and is a Sophomore) and will be added to their blueline next year. Going to be a powerhouse. I moved here from LA in 2006 and will not give my allegiance to the AVs, but nice that I can see good hockey if I want to.
It's sad that Drew is saying "I am the one that needs to get us out of this" while Kopi says "we have no urgency, no emotion...." Who sounds more like the captain?
Based on this, Kopi should be traded or have the C removed...give it back to Brown or even Drew.
Sucks that Kempe got injured, after coming around the last week...and point a game FOR LIFE Kovalchuk, (803 pts in 803 games or some such) 0 pts in 7 games?? Must be his longest streak ever like that. Playing with Carter and Toffoli is death. Both of those guys create ZERO offense. Need to swicth Iafallo and Kovalchuk. The first player I would trade is Carter...if no
decent offers, then at deadline.
