Pre-Game Talk: GM07 | Vancouver Canucks vs Pittsburgh Penguins | Sat. Oct 26th | 7pm PST | HNIC | Kevin Corsby

Pens going to be well rested for tomorrow 8 shots half way through the game.

 

[Orca Smash]

Pens look really bad, wont look good if they beat us on a back to back and they play this poorly the night before. Better get the win.

Pens got shelled 50 shots against. They’re either going to look terrible or Crosby is going to be looking for blood

Rather they didn't get spanked tonight. Would have much preferred them coming off a comfortable win, for multiple reasons.

They’re just ass, we better dominate

 

[PuckMunchkin]

At no point in his career has EP ever been as good as any of JT's best 3-4 seasons as a Canuck. Even JT's first year when he had 72 points in 69 games, that was one of the most dominant seasons by Canuck I'd ever seen. He had nobody to play with really (everyone else sucked that year including Pettersson) and could win games single-handedly. Even when Pettersson had 102 points he did not have that kind of impact on the ice. And when Pettersson is at his worst (and this year is definitely NOT the worst that he has played), he is an active detriment to his team especially on the PP.

It's not just a matter of effort either, it's a matter of talent. JT is simply a superior playmaker, for example, and that has borne itself out over time.

JT is better at running a power play and is more physical.

EP at his best is better st everything else.

Canucks should hire brandon sutter to tell petey to give his balls a tug and actually do something

 

[Johnny Canucker]

This is bad for us. We are due for a loss. They are due for a big win after getting slapped and apparently a “salty room”. Not good.

Marcus?

 

[PuckMunchkin]

Why are they giving EP line mates?

With his contract he should be able to dominate 3 v 5!

They'll do nothing. Easy game for Tocchet

AAAAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHH!

 

[VanJack]

Canucks better be on guard tomorrow night. When a team lays an egg like the Pens did tonight, one of two things will happen.

Either they'll come out the next game like they're shot out of a canon; or things will go from bad to worse. Canucks need to jump on this fragile team early.

I thought Mike Sullivan sucks though ?

 

[God]

i mean, the blackhawks could also lose the first of a b2b 4-0 and then lose the next game too. a team can be as motivated as they want and still be bad because that's just what they are.

plus i'm pretty sure the oilers have smoked the penguins in each of their meetings spanning ~4-5 years. they always play up the mcdavid crosby matchup and it's just not close anymore.

 

[DFAC]

Pens are bad
