GDT: GM06 | Vancouver Canucks @ Chicago Blackhawks | Tue. Oct 22nd | 5:15pm PST | SNP | That's a Weird Start Time

[Flik]

Lmao, glad Miller didn't sit tonight

 

[Tables of Stats]

Miller sent that one like a prime Brock Boeser.

 

[Vector]

Why is that camera angle filmed from a ghost’s perspective?

 

[SillyRabbit]

Me, who thought Miller should sit tonight:

 

[Peen]

If nothing else with Blueger-Sherwood playing well as a third line, I feel like it wouldn’t be that bad to play Sprong on the PP and sparingly at ES. The fourth doesn’t have to get consistent ice time

Exactly. It’s the role tailor made for him. I get they won’t use him in the playoffs if that’s his role and there’s an attempt at longer term improvements, but he actually was good the last game so idk. Vectors def right on that one.

And im a sprong doubter through and through

 

[Bgav]

Lots of movement on that pp finally

 

[wonton15]

Blow me out

 

[Vector]

That was the best looking power play since before the playoff started.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Poor Mrazek

Not that the goal is his fault, but you can tell on his body language he's kinda like "f***, it's all me tonight isn't it?".

 

[Bobby9]

JT ‘He acts like a child’ Miller

 

[Peen]

It’s early but this game screamed breakout offensive game to me.

And a good challenge for VAN to not Calgary this one.

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

I knew Toc wouldn't like Sprong. I don't know why they bothered signing him

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

Shades of the St. Louis game last year lol. Great start.

It does work better when you move the pp.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

That was the best looking power play since before the playoff started.

You mean fast puck movement *could* be a good thing?

I hate slow playing powerplays. It just tells the other team you're terrified of them having the puck.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Deserve to be up by 3….

In saying that,I’m always a bit leery when a team runs up the score early..Canucks need to keep the pressure on

 

[Regal]

I think as the team gains chemistry and gets more rest his limitations can be better hidden as well. I guess with Chicago though they might not need the offense

 

[BWJM]

Keep the foot on the gas pedal lads!

 

[AlainVigneaultsGum]

Oooooo

 

[Regress2TheMeme]

Is this the moment Garland meshes with the top 6 and PP1 unit? I feel like he would bring some consistency to our somewhat inconsistent star forwards. I like his hustle and skating on the PP1 which is usually very static.

 

[Canuckle1970]

Damn, I thought the game was starting at 5:30, so I missed Heinen's first goal as a Canuck.

 

[LordBacon]

I'll never get sick of pp jokes

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

I love when the PP moves.

 

[Bgav]

Didn’t that go off Peteys stick before miller shot it (need an assist for a bet)

I didn't read any of the pre-game, but I can guarantee you there was a steady stream of "TRAP GAME!!!!" by some select posters.
