Post-Game Talk: [GM49] Canucks defeat Blues | 5-2 | Garland(2), Miller, Suter, & Myers | Prymer Myers

Past the Blues now and just behind the flames for 8th. Have to win 7 out of the next 10 to put the trade rumours to rest and be well in a playoff spot with the trade deadline approaching. Let’s Go!!

They're close, but yes, Finland is slightly better. Much better defense. Russia has insane wingers (Kucherov, Kaprizov etc) and good goalies but their defense is far behind the other countries.

Not saying they don't belong in the tournament (they do)...but it is what it is. It's not like their absence makes the tournament meaningless (like it would be if you left out Canada or the US).
Finlands D and Wings are so so shallow.

Fins have better Cs. Rest I give to russia or is a wash.
 
Yay 2 wins in a row. Like winning the Lotto Max or something.

Every time I'm ready to throw in the towel they do just enough to keep that hook firmly stuck.

Time to stop messing around and play like a team that deserves a playoff spot. Myers is trying to lead us to the promise land, but can they follow? Need to make a statement vs Nashy.

6 games before the 2 week lame ass 4 team scrimmage and then another 6 to the trade deadline. These next 6 games could decide what our future direction will take.
 
just finished watching the game on my mom’s amazon account haha

man hughes had two five alarm assists. that first one to thread the needle under the guy’s skate was ridiculous. that said, the last little bit he’s making around five mistakes a game. i don’t know if he’s getting tired or teams are pressuring him better but for most of the season he was making zero mistakes per game.

i feel like a jerk pointing this out because he still tilts the ice almost every shift, but for a lot of the year he was literally perfect. if he was playing basketball, he would have had an assist to turnover ratio of infinity over the first few months.
