Post-Game Talk: GM 60 | Kraken def. Canucks | 6-3 (Suter, Chytil, Joshua) | Pain and Suffering.

I don't think Hughes is 100 percent and EP looks like he's playing in a preseason game

 

[Coffee]

I wonder if they could convert ep40 into a stay at home defenceman

They probably can tbh

 

[LemonSauceD]

I know some people have thrown Crouse around as a target but tbh he’s redundant when you have Joshua.

Hughes isnt even 50% right now

 

[Ace of Hades]

Honestly nothing to do with luck at all. This is what happens when you get pucks on net. The game just boils down to basic statistics.

You have clowns like EP40 who has 5 shots in his last NINE games, and we wonder why he can't produce.

Hockey truly is a very simple game. If you shoot 100 times on net, you will statistically score a few, regardless of how weak and pathetic each shot is.

Your response isn't disagreeable.

However, It's not just that but let's be real here, scoring three shots all from deflections is still damn lucky no matter how you cut it. Canucks also hit three posts.

This team has zero swagger right now and with Pettersson playing like a 3 million dollar defensive third liner we have no game changing offensive threats outside of the worn down Hughes.

Gotta commend the guys in the bottom half of the lineup for almost always working hard and doing the right things despite some of the guys at the top of the lineup completely tanking the team.

 

[Coffee]

I thought Pettersson was still a "great defensive player" who "helps the team win" even when he's not contributing?

He is. Everyone has down games, dude.

 

[DimitriL07]

Sabre scouts dipped out to the bar, they’ve seen enough of EP for the night.

 

[Felix the Cat Potvin]

He is. Everyone has down games, dude.

When was his last up game?

 

[rypper]

Our d core would be 50% Pettersson.

 

[Kryten]

 

[SnapIt]

I can’t believe the team would do this to Tyler Myers. He lives for the kraken matchups

 

[Michael Dal Swolle]

At least Gudbranson was handsome and he didn't cost 11.6 Million.

Gudbranson's awfulness was at least pretty funny to watch

Agreed. He's just being buried alive in his own zone. He just doesn't seem to have the same mobility to beat the forecheck any more. And at his size, he's simply not going to win any one-on-one puck battles.

These are the kind of games that you look back on, if things don't change in the third period --when you're breaking out the golf clubs in early April.

Yup. Seeing guys like Sherwood and Joshua busting their asses game in and game out while Pettersson and Boeser float makes me respect them a ton.

 

[Coffee]

Wow

Win faceoff ep and one isn't tipped ffs he's lost right now

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Oof Hughes and Hronek -3 each, every other D +1?

 

[Nuckles]

Canucks have an uphill battle on their hands.
*haven't scored a 3rd period goal on road trip
*haven't scored more than 3 in a game since Jan 27th
*on an off-night and still playing through something, what does Quinn Hughes have left in third?
However it doesn't feel like the scoring is over in this one
- Paterson

I don’t think they’re floating, I think they can’t skate.

 

[Bleach Clean]

Defensively? Probably their win against LA... But I know you're not speaking about defense.

 

[Regal]

I know some people have thrown Crouse around as a target but tbh he’s redundant when you have Joshua.

It’d also just be more cap hit on a player who isn’t a true top 6 talent

 

[Bleach Clean]

Shoot the bloody puck Boeser!

 

[bbud]

Boeser want the dough score a f..kin goal so shoot ffs they think they are a 1970s ussr team

I don’t think they’re floating, I think they can’t skate.

That's almost worse unless you think either of them can recover their lost foot speed with a healthy offseason.
