Post-Game Talk: [GM23] Canucks defeat Red Wings | 5-4 OT | DeBrusk(3), Suter, & Brannstrom | Jak3 D3Brusk

[Canucks LB]

DeBrusk on a heater.

Said it before, but EP stepping up with his bestie JT out.

Hughes is from another planet.

Lankinen allows you to win any game he starts.

At this rate, Nucks should never play another game at home.

They need to add their own dynamic pricing and bring the prices down, and I think the atmosphere and the games will be much better.

Anyways, that’s it for me in here until a bit, I’m heading out with the wife, take care of everybody, have a great afternoon and evening

Imagine when we add Miller Demko Hronek. Be like adding 3 impact players in a trade!

Tocchet stresses me out but I gotta admit he gets results.

If the team can just stay afloat until they start getting bodies back, we'll be in good good shape.

 

[krutovsdonut]

Wait, just a second, it’s definitely on an island, am I talking about another moon lmao

Well, wherever it is, it was beautiful

you do have to take a ferry to get there but it is not on an island.

 

[Quinning]

more of a toblerone with his equally solid play in all three zones establishing a solid steady triangle of a game, and his crunchy nougat board game yielding tasty results.

plus the hidden bear of clutch scoring.

Got the munchies?

 

[supercanuck]

I had no idea the game was today!

Glad we won and our big boys stepped up once again.

 

[bobbyb2009]

I know that look.

Hoggy is gettin' lucky tonight!!!

(Or maybe I am really bad at reading facial cues...)

You do know that when those guys look at you like that and then drag you into the alley, that isn't what they mean when they say you're "getting lucky," right?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

But yeah, you can put this solely on Silovs….

 

[Bgav]

i think a big part of petey getting points now is playing with quinn way more. Feels like Millers line was always on the ice with quinn

 

[pitseleh]

But yeah, you can put this solely on Silovs….

Silovs is -9 GSAA on both Natural Stat Trick and Money Puck, so yeah it is.

 

[maroon 6]

Worried about Joshua

In 9 games played now he’s only had 2 shots and both in the same game

give him time. coming back from cancer. takes time.

The dude just had cancer. Let's give him some time. He's also a notoriously slow starter.

Was just checking the advanced stats, he had two individual scoring chances and one high danger scoring chance. He needs to get up to speed, but I don't think he has played that badly.

5on5 he was on for 16 shot attempts and only 4 against. That's the lowest CA on the entire team.

Once he regains a bit of form, he'll be a force like last season.

Tampa and Vancouver are both in this spot because their backups have been horrific in limited games played (both are roughly -9 GSAE). Both team's starters have been very good this year.

Luckily Vancouver has an incoming solution, Tampa should be on the market for someone unless they really think a rebound is incoming.

Honestly. If a team is willing to trade a late 1st + prospect for Lankinen once Demko is healthy, I think you have to take that deal. That would be found money, and the guy isn't resigning after this year as he's due for a massive raise.

But you're gambling that Demko will be back to form and stay that way, because Silovs is not the answer.

I get the idea, but I wouldn't do it. Demko is made of glass, and Lankinen is solid. I would try to re-up him if possible, as a 1b. I agree that Silovs offers zero stability, to the point where I would consider him currently unplayable. He can't be Demko's back-up.

I'd say the complete opposite. If the Canucks are competitive and playoff bound, there's no way you don't have a legitimate backup for a run. Silovs is not at that state right now. You keep Lankinen 100%.

I don't see him signing without being guaranteed starting minutes. He's been a backup his entire career, it's his time to be the go-to-guy.

Hope I'm wrong, because Demko/Lankinen 1A and 1B is the best tandem in the entire NHL.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

I went to half Moon Bay last year for a four day vacation, it’s absolutely beautiful on the island man

Half Moon Bay is not actually on the island.

But agree the Island and Half Moon Bay are lovely.

lol nobody is giving up a 1st and a prospect for Lankinen.,

 

[VanillaCoke]

Hahaha they're not trading Lankinen for futures get off the Playstation

Halfmoon Bay is on the Sunshine Coast

IMO it would be foolish to gamble the entire season on Demko's health. We signed Lankinen for the exact scenario we are seeing play out.

I guess we could trade the 1st for a good backup goalie.

Worst take of the week.

Canucks aren't trading him.
Nobody is trading a 1st and a prospect for him.

I'm hopeful that he'll sign a Stolarz type deal with the team in January. 2 x $2.5m or I'd even go 3 x $3m.

 

[HairyKneel]

Honestly, I don’t like to call people on their bullshit, but give me a break man

Would like this post if I could. That dude is the number 1 diaper tosser here.
