Canucks complete a short-pass challenge!

Immediately failed.

Still haven't completed this challenge.

 

[Nomobo]

Canucks are deserving of better so far in this game.

 

[wonton15]

This is some boring hockey

 

[ephmrl]

This team needs Joshua to get going. I know he’s started late and was sick but he’s been pretty invisible since returning

The most impressive part of Kevin Lankinen is that he’s not Arturs Silovs

I took the Canucks money line in the intermission. +290.

Damn EP40

Joshua actually looks better than I thought he would after missing training camp due to cancer. Not expecting much of him for the next month until he gets back up to speed.

 

[Nomobo]

Max Sasson is a better NHL bottom 6 prospect than Arshdeep Bains change my mind

No doubt about it. I was impressed by him at training camp.

 

[nucks88]

I hate Gazdic.

That’s fair since he hates the Canucks franchise and their fans……excellent impartial “analyst” ….

 

[wonton15]

Forwards can’t finnish on either team

Goalies are both Finnish…

 

[bbud]

This is some boring hockey

Missing the players they are its smart and simple Buffalo is getting shots but few high grade chances

 

[wonton15]

We are not winning this one the way we’re (not) connecting

 

[Nomobo]

Team is showing character in the face of adversity. It’s testament to RT’s coaching.

 

[bbud]

Good pk

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Joshua actually looks better than I thought he would after missing training camp due to cancer. Not expecting much of him for the next month until he gets back up to speed.

His illness aside I didn’t like the term / money of his contract after 1 good season.

 

[kanucks25]

Old Petey is likely fast enough to squeak through there

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Imagine we get a couple PPs? That would be fun.

 

[VanillaCoke]

No reason to lose this game.

 

[Regal]

We are not winning this one the way we’re (not) connecting

Eh, this is such a slog fest it will just come down to a couple breaks here or there

 

[SillyRabbit]

The funniest part is people complaining about a start time for a hockey game. It's a game we watch for enjoyment. If it's important to you watch it. If not do what's more important to you at that time.

How entitled do people have to be to think that professional sports games should revolve around their own personal life and schedules as compared to the wishes of the teams themselves and even other people? My gawd that's silly. Let alone thinking that opposing teams aren't organizing the games when they feel is the best time, or that everyone should cater to Canucks fans. Wow, just completely wow. No wonder people on the coast get stereotyped.

I’ve never seen someone so vehemently defend a 12pm start time on a weekday that isn’t a holiday to the extent that they start to throw shade at all “west coast” people.

Games should be scheduled when they’ll get the most viewers. The NHL is a business. You’re also wrong about “teams organizing games when they feel is best.” Teams don’t set the game times, the league does.

The “wow, just completely wow” part is my favorite. Like you cannot believe that fans would question a noon start time on a weekday.

This might be the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen someone freak out over.

Desharnais has had a couple very good shifts this period. Nothing spectacular, but it's been a struggle for him obviously and nice to see him show a bit better play.

 

[cc]

so I guess interference is fine this game. good to know

 

[wonton15]

Heinen looks like the nicest guy to have as a neighbour. Would probably invite you over for some crispy lagers

 

[bbud]

Yep obstruct a canuck is free pass against us .

so I guess interference is fine this game. good to know

Not if your a Sabre going near net though

 

[strattonius]

About as big of an interference play you'll ever see against Pettersson and just...nothing called. You'd expect the normal.bs game management stuff but I guess not us not today not this week.

It's Thanksgiving in USA so for them it's probably sensible today easier for families to go to a game

Solid game from him thus far. Nothing flashy, but using good positioning and has been tidy with his stick work. If he's able to find some consistency he should be a permanent fixture on the third pair and push Juulsen out of the lineup (please).

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

LOL what a stupid penalty. Punched him right in front of the ref too.
