We back

 

[Killer Orcas]

Hopefully everyone got what they wanted for xmas and are now ready to play !

 

[geebaan]

Which team is gonna show up is the question

 

[VanJack]

Seattle may be struggling, but they're a very fast team,--just the kind of line-up that gives this Canuck blueline fits.

So hopefully coming out of the holiday break, we don't see the 'lead skate' version of the Canucks in the first period. If they get down a couple of goals and are forced to open it up, Seattle could claim a rare road win.

Kraken rising...

 

[David71]

after a long break, they always come out flat.

Expect the unexpected!

Oil up mofos
Canucks hockey is back

 

[Tact]

Will Sprong be in the lineup?

 

[Bojack Horvatman]

Which team is gonna show up is the question

Well it's a home game, so I'm guessing the Washington Generals

 

[theguardianII]

Seattle will be playing a MUST win game. It's a 4 pointer.
9 pts back for 3rd in the division, 8 pts back for WC2.
The obvious, if they win they are 2 points closer and the Canuck have burned a game.

I think the Canucks will need to be better than the last game. The last few really.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

3-1 for the Metropolitans.

Hap Holmes with 2 goals. Lester Patrick with 3 assists.

Cyclone Taylor with the lone Millionares goal.

 

[M2Beezy]

GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!

Man I love this team

 

[Soups On]

Petey patented 5 point game coming up, along with the we're so back memes

 

[Vector]

Will Sprong be in the lineup?

He’s been a regular healthy scratch so we’ll have to wait and see.

I wrote an article relevant to tomorrow’s game. Also worth reading if you hate the Maple Leafs.

Hughes hasn't practiced in a few weeks I don't think. I remember having a conversation, not necessarily with you, that it wouldn't affect Hughes at all playing a bit extra. His play hasn't dropped but he is clearly nursing an injury.

Brisebois recall is a bit of an odd one. Clearly management feeling very festive to give all the guys in the minors a little bump in pay this year at some point and keep waiver days low. haha.

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Oh god that's a lottery level lineup.

 

[Nucker101]

Hughes will play, but if he was actually out that has to be one of the worst bluelines to play a NHL game in the past decade.

 

[wonton15]

Hughes will probably play, but Pettersson does not look like he’s going to. Yikes.
