GDT: GM 57 | Vancouver Canucks @ Utah Hockey Club | Feb 23 | 5:00PM PST | SNET

[Cogburn]

I'm at my parents place for dinner tonight.

More then usual, I want a blow out win, so I don't have to hear about how wokeness ruined Vancouver hockey (posters note: ????).

Just win, and if Pettersson doesn't put up 5 points, trade him for a literal lead weight.

 

[Big zZz]

I’m just going to post it now so I don’t have to in the PGT.

Thanks Mr 11.6m for another zero point game

I don't understand how stuff like this helps at all...

 

[rypper]

Which one?

 

[God]

sergachev hat trick here we go

 

[Jroach]

Oh ffs.

There’s a good reason for that

It doesn’t.

 

[Flik]

Phewwww, I feel a bit out of the loop, had to miss last night's game and I'm trying to catch up on any Canucks news I can.

Here's hoping we can string a few wins together in this critical 4 game stretch.

Also my wife and I are finalizing the details on purchasing our first house, so thats been a wild trip, wish us luck lol

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Time for an Arty Party!

 

[wonton15]

I have a feeling we see Mancini tonight

 

[wonton15]

I might be Drance

 

[VanillaCoke]

Adios soucy, salut à three millions cap space for something else.

Got the rust off last night. Hope Myers has settled down and plays a normal game.
We kept it close enough to win last night, without Hughes, against a better team in a tough arena.

Tonight should be a good test. Utah kept it close in LA last night and they never quit. Get streaking, DeBrusk!

I think this is just the case of a vet getting a rest. Tocchet said he'd start resting vets down the stretch, here.

Play like we did in the 3rd for 60 minutes, we likely win this game. Unless we get goalied (ours or theirs).

Really looking forward to the Garland vs Guenther comp this game. Should be fun.

 

[God]

excited to see mancini play at the nhl level

didn't think aman was that bad last night but also really need to see something out of bains before writing him off as filler

 

[alternate]

I'm all for rotating guys in on back to backs. Went with the low hanging fruit at forward, but that's fine.

Other than an injury or trade we don’t know about, noteworthy that Soucy is out and DPetey stays in. Willing to play 2 rookies, when I didn't think Soucy played terrible that he was an obvious scratch. Curious what that means for DPetey and Dwilly being in the same lineup this spring and/or next fall.

 

[VanJack]

Silovs is the wildcard. Canucks can't get out-shot and out-chanced like they were last night, or it could be a long evening.

Watching some of Silovs games in Abbotsford this season, he still has problems with rebound-control and picking up pucks through trafffic.

I suspect Utah will be directing a lot of long-shots on goal from the point, and then go hunting for rebounds.

 

[Curm]

Is it going to be an EP25-Mancini pairing, or will Tocchet split them up? Soucy must be done here or close to it.

I'd rather see Lekkerimaki in, if he's healthy, over Bains.

Gonna guess we’ll see DPetey-Hronek, and Forbort-Mancini. EP25 was getting shifts with Hronek yesterday and looked good.
