Does anyone know in the past decade, what is the most number of games a single team has had to reschedule during 1 season for something other than Covid? TB had their CAR game tonight postponed and still have Van and LV due to come in on Tue/Thur to play. Logistically, are they really going to be able to make up these 3 games later in the season?

 

[Bobby9]

Kuch, Point, Guentzel on one end.

Forbort and Vinny D on the other end.

Vasi in one end.
Silovs on the other.

Pretend-Onitis Pete better show up.

He will, Bobby, you know he will.

 

[Bobby9]

He will, Bobby, you know he will.

Thanks for the support Java bro.

 

[TruGr1t]

Bench Sprong for Bains. Lankinen obviously starts. Defense is gonna be a mess without Myers. Likely Juulsen/Desharnais down the RS.

[Grip it N RYP it]

I'm not a religious man, but let us pray for Myers to return.

*Sideshow Bob shudder noises

Alvin's only signings that I like are DeBrusk and Sherwood.The rest are hot garbage pick ups. Defense is going to be a question mark all season .Goaltending very unpredictable due to Demko.Is Demko gonna be 100 %.Or is he gonna get injured again.Im not liking what is happening right now.

Tough test

 

[rypper]

They'll probably win this one handily.

 

[Vector]

They'll probably win this one handily.

Will be a whole narrative that sometimes a road trip gets you away from the noise and allows you to just focus on hockey.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

They'll probably win this one handily.

So much negativity.

 

[TruGr1t]

They'll probably win this one handily.

They’ll probably start off like gang busters and then get shelled in the back half.

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

So much negativity.

True. Will try finding a stat that showed Cup winners since 2010 and their Winning percentage in October, it’s shockingly low.

2 games & 2 ties, not great not terrible, we’ll hit full stride after 6 or 7 games, pretty optimistic, if Canucks won both coin flips in OT we’d be talking about how great they are, decent start in hindsight, 2 games 2 points.

 

[ihaveyuidonttouchme]

ill have another 1 point game better than nothing

 

[Bertuzzzi44]

Any update on Myers? Seemed like he hyperextended his knee pinching to keep the puck in as the forward stuck his rear out and braced himself.

 

[wonton15]

Practice underway soon. I’d expect Heinen to move down (with Petey?) and Sherwood or Suter to move up with JT.

Unfortunately the other signings seem like tocchet ones, as in Rick wanted them so they did it. I think they might need to get a bit more involved, Rick loves big defenseman he said so on tnt, at times he's still stuck in a past NHL era and makes some odd observations.

Although I'm not sure if the new signings are the issue, a lot of this is our top guys not looking good to start the season.

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Sounds like no Garland at practice today, either. Hope he and Myers are alright.

 

[wonton15]

Put Edler in cowards

 

[Phrasing]

Put Edler in cowards

That’s an ugly defense.

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

That'd be a lethal bottom four in the ECHL.
