Post-Game Talk: [GM20] Canucks lose to Avalanche | 2-5 (Hoglander & Miller) | Ref Show

[Killer Orcas]

In Demko we trust. Your time to shine Thatcher we need your best tonight.

I think the Canucks are going to this game on a good vibe..They took control of the SJS game in the 3rd, whereas they gave the game away to the Kraken in the 3rd.

I don't think anyone in the lineup had a particularly poor game against SJS..

Game will be a good measuring stick, to see how they stand up against top competition..If the energy is there, they have a good chance to take it.

As long as they bring their best effort forward, win or lose, we'll be alright.

Of course, outside of Hughes and Hronek our D corps basically feels like wet tissue paper. Avs probably gonna have a field day here.

We need another NHL dman so badly.

There was a game in 2005 where I vividly remember Jim and John stressing the importance of containing Hejduk in the pre-game.

Puck drops. Some 10-11 seconds into the game...Milan Hejduk scores.

I was laughing my ass off at that point.

Yup assisted by another glorious Canuck Killer Alex Tanguay with that fluky ass flip pass. Man I hated Alex Tanguay. That Sakic/Hejduk/Tanguay line was f***ED.

I remember he had this ridiculous 5 point night in 2001 in his rookie season or something. i was like 9 or 10 years old, I thought he was sick until he kept lighting it up against us for another 10 years. Even in Calgary.

 

[helloconga]

already called the playoffs a wild back, but a win here on the road would solidify their name as a contender. go canucks

Hughes has a measly 2 points in 8 career games against the Avs, his lowest point total against any team in the NHL

until tonight
I am gonna say 3 pointer

 

[Raistlin]

I know my mood shouldn't be affected by the team, I'm too old for that, but I've been pretty psyched the last two days for this game. I hope they both get 5 points and we win 7-6

Toews-Makar
Byram-Manson

Man, when can this team have depth like that??

We need another NHL dman so badly.

We need 2 at least.

Imagine thinking Byram or Manson can beat Tyler Myers...

We are 3-3 in our last 6 games so we have come back down to earth. A loss tonight makes us 3-4 and …. That’s stinky.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Think the boys struggle tonight

 

[Tact]

COL 2nd line looks really bad on paper. I guess the same can be said about our 2nd and 3rd pairs lol.

We match up very well against them, we just need to upgrade our defence and I really feel it’s a toss up and which team top players show up who would win.

We also have edge in goaltending

Based on Bednar's comments, it doesn't sound like they're underestimating us either. Should be a tough game.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Pettersson seems to always have some his best games against the Avs. Hopefully he can get going tonight

 

[Canuckle1970]

Yeah, hope we see "prime" Petey tonight, and stellar play from the the rest of the guys.

These two teams always seem to get up for each other. They have a history of high spirited games.

It’s 1240am in Spain (the s isn’t silent for once), and I’m flying to the Canary Islands in 6 hours.

I booked this trip thinking I didn’t have hockey to look forward to in November BUT I WAS WRONG. So I’ll be tuning it at 4 f***ing am because you gotta support the team

 

[IceColdBear]

Is Demko confirmed starting?

I have two other goalies in fantasy playing at 7 pm EST - if Demko isn't playing I need to start one of them before 7 tonight.

I’d say it’s pretty safe to assume he’ll start. Big game here.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

I assume it’s TD35 tonight and CD29 vs Sharks

I can't hear those names paired together anymore.

Ok but Hedjuk was really good

 

[gsharpe]

What ever happened with Nichuskin? Last I remember he had an overly intoxicated girl in his room that wasn't his wife. After that I haven't paid attention
