Post-Game Talk: GM 53 | Canucks def. Avs 3-0 (DeBrusk, Boeser, O’Connor) | WE ARE SO F***ING BACK

[Binder]

Wait until we get lucas Pettersson to finish off the evolution

we also need Oscar

think he is a duck or senator can't remember

 

[VanJack]

D-Petey is growing before our eyes. Probably his best game of the season. He looks so calm and controlled, and he just blows people up along the wall.

Unless what we're seeing is a mirage, he's a legit top-four defensive prospect. For a third round draft pick--I'll take it.

 

[Lenny Levino]

Does Pettersson stay in ahead of Soucy when Hughes comes back?

They should both be in the lineup.

Hughes - Myers
MP3 - Hronek
Big Pete - Soucy

 

[Ace of Hades]

Does Pettersson stay in ahead of Soucy when Hughes comes back?

You take out Forbort instead.

 

[Treefingers]

Great win, but man, I'm just very sad watching EP40. He's totally forgotten who he is.

 

[Draft Guru]

Moves his feet, gets shots off, and finds open man. Did have a moment where he was admiring his pass and was hit close to the boards, albeit a late hit, and not a headshot, but its moments like that where I think, that’s why he’s got a concussion history.

Otherwise he’s doing a good job of pushing the pace.

At least twice this season he's also ran into one of our own players, and the first time after a collision with K'Andre Miller he missed about a week or two. He loves to carry the puck which is a blessing and a curse. He's great at it, but having the puck also means he's a target to be hit. I just hope he continues to keep his head up.

 

[Vector]

Based on today only, they should take out Forbort and keep the Pettersson-Soucy pair in tact.

Hughes Hronek
Pettersson Myers
Pettersson Soucy

That’s a mobile d group over there

I'd really like to see them give D-Petey some PK time. Probably won't happen unless the score is lopsided.

 

[David71]

#40 is my least favourite Pettersson

His skating has regressed. Watch him, he’s just not on his edges, just painful how slow he is.

hes lost all his speed. his rookie year he was able to blow past guys with ease.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

EP is the opposite of Samson.

Done everything to keep his hair and lost his powers.

Shave your head!

 

[TruGr1t]

I'd really like to see them give D-Petey some PK time. Probably won't happen unless the score is lopsided.

The PK is why I think Tocchet will lean towards Forbort.

 

[Hockeyphysio]

What do we do with EP40? He needs help. Maybe just play him a f*** ton in ozone

 

[Nuckles]

 

[Canuckle1970]

Both Alberta teams did us favours tonight. Canadian solidarity.

 

[Vector]

The PK is why I think Tocchet will lean towards Forbort.

Ditto. Although if you roll with the following:

Hughes-Hronek
Pettersson-Myers
Pettersson-Soucy

You still have 4 very good penalty killers. The problem becomes if any of them take a penalty.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

You take out Forbort instead.

Why are we taking out our best penalty killer. We all know D-Petey is coming out whether we like it or not when Hughes comes back. It should be Soucy imo.

 

[krutovsdonut]

that was pretty great

 

[Flik]

Things are turning around!

 

[LordBacon]

Cdc was medicated kids with mom Deb handing out the candy. HF is pure unmedicated bipolar PD adults

CDC was absolute garbage,
I got called out because I didn’t like Benning.

You can only praise the team, they had some cult shit going on there

 

[me2]

It was transformed over the course of like a day, too. Lmfao.

It is refreshing now in party because we have written off the season in our heads and are looking to next year. Management was way too slow in fixing the D.

They had junior Pete already. I'm disappointed they didn't play him more when the team needed help in December. It was clear the current D options were not working.

I am surprised at the reactions in the gdt to mpete though. Did people really not know what they were getting? He's a top notch defenseman, not flashy, just dependable. I figured people would twig to the tanev vibe sooner or later.

The other Pete (C) is a dilemma. Either he fixes his skating this offseason and we see PPG+ Pete or they have to move him. Only management knows enough to guess if his health with recover, the rest of us are just in the dark. If it doesn't they have to move on. We have to trust management on that.

Wouldn't mind seeing DOC ep40 Sherwood given a run. Those two should help with speed and pick recover is Peterson can't carry the puck as well as he used to.

Enjoying healthy Demko while it lasts

[Hockeyphysio]

Great win, but man, I'm just very sad watching EP40. He's totally forgotten who he is.

Maybe Mufasa and Rafiki can help him find himself

 

[Vector]

Haven't seen it mentioned but I absolutely love O'Connor gaining centre ice before going for the empty net. Guaranteed a win but just taking a few extra feet, whether he scored or missed.

 

[Kryten]

He admired a pass and got nailed a bit late. Not sure if that’s what got him trouble before. Very nice skill set!

That was the most egregious of the night but there were a couple others where he took a hard hit that seemed harder than necessary

 

[Ace of Hades]

Why are we taking out our best penalty killer.

Because we have good enough penalty killers and should stick to the Petey-Soucy pairing.

 

[ProviesGhost]

Also, this game was the best Noah Juulsen has looked all season.
