GDT: [GM49] Vancouver Canucks @ St. Louis Blues | Mon, Jan. 27th | 4:30pm | Amazon Prime | Sing Me a Sweet Tune

[DFAC]

Should I stay home and watch this game or go see the Penguins beat on the Sharks?

Neither - I'd go do something fun instead

 

[Nuckles]

Prime pre-game show is live

 

[Vector]

Don't they have an extra slot with Friedman being sent down? I could be wrong though

I'm assuming, and completely forgot to state, that I figured they will use that spot for Joshua who is expected to activated for the game.

What does this mean?

Canucks have a 22/23 roster with both Joshua and Juulsen on IR. It's expected that Joshua will be activated for this game. For Juulsen to get activated, someone else would need to be sent down. We're inching closer and closer to D-Petey playing again and, hopefully, in a more prominent role.

 

[Hoglander]

There is honestly no way to make even the slightest of educated guesses at which version of the team will show up:

The one that is desperate to make the playoffs, tries their asses off, and plays to their potential

Or

The one that could care less about shooting the puck, forgets a lifetime of coaching and practicing as they leave players wide open for grade-A chances, and goes down 3-0 in the first period

Or

The one that sees Hughes create %100 of the offense, finishes with under 25 shots on net, relies on stellar goaltending to earn a point, and then Myers trips over Boeser and falls into Miller as it creates a 3-on-0 the other way for an embarrassing OT loss

Why do I have a feeling we’re going to absolutely shit kick the Blues tonight. Weird feeling I know. I’m a weird person.

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

All they need to do is "move their feet". That will solve everything.

I mean at what point do people start pointing to the style our coach deploys? I mean when an entire team struggles to score like this it has to be the system right?

Crosby & celebrini live is an easy yes

 

[calnuck]

Crosby & celebrini live is an easy yes

That’s kinda what I was thinking. Plus Karlsson back in San Jose should be a good time

 

[Dirtyclapper]

Pettersson has taken a step. Openly says he wants to stay. Is out working with the Coaching staff and Sedins.

To be fair he wasn't openly trying to stay here a year ago. He got overpaid and now he wants to make sure he doesn't go somewhere like Columbus or or Buffalo to earn that money. He better figure it out soon or he'll be gone before the NMC kicks in lol.

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

They put in a good effort Saturday against the Caps..but they always follow it up with a stinker (this season anyway)

Hopefully that changes tonight.

 

[Vector]

Lankinen starting. No Joshua or Desharnais.

 

[rypper]

Lankinen starting. No Joshua or Desharnais.

Yes! Oh. Yes!

 

[logan5]

Which Elias Pettersson???

One is pronounced Elias. The other pronounced Elias.

Is it a good sign that D Petey is getting another start? Maybe he'll get more ice time this game.

 

[Nuckles]

D-Petey playing!

 

[wonton15]

Sources are saying that we’ll either win or lose this one

 

[Ozone]

Let's get two in a row!!!!! Let's Freakin' Go!!!

 

[xtr3m]

All they need to do is "move their feet". That will solve everything.

And stop squeezing the stick too hard. Oh, and have fun out there!

 

[Canuckle1970]

I really like the "being in the arena" feel before puck drop.

 

[xtr3m]

Sources are saying that we’ll either win or lose this one

Thanks, Elliotte.

 

[Ozone]

I really like the "being in the arena" feel before puck drop.

Exactly. Pre-game Zamboni show!
"Go wide! Make another pass! You missed a spot!"

 

[wonton15]

Rare Canucks social media win

 

[rypper]

Chris pronger looks like a substitute teacher who is way too easy to rattle.

 

[calnuck]

That forehead/ hairline combo is wild lmao

 

[SillyRabbit]

Honest Question: Pettersson must be fuming behind the scenes that he was not once, but TWICE almost traded in the past 10 Months, no?

Probably not as much as his teammates had to be fuming when they were one goal away from the WCF while Pettersson put up one goal and six points in the entire playoff run.

Chris Pronger, the HOF major dirtbag.
