GDT: [GM67] Vancouver Canucks vs Utah HC | Sun, Mar. 16th | 5pm | SNP | These Games Are Too Meaningful!

[Baby Pettersson]

Nobody:
Boeser: look at me, Im the depressed no talent player now

Should have dumped him for a 5th at this point.

 

[quat]

best player in franchise history and captain demands for the puck you give it to him

Hronek has had a rough 1st. Bobbling the puck too much and not making his usual crisp passes.

I wish they'd give Hronek his own pairing. He always seems to get better the more he's the go to guy.

 

[moiderer]

Tocchet made it a point after last game that Aman wants to be a regular, sat 3 weeks and is working his ass off. Wonder how he feels about Brock right now.

Lekkerimaki looks like he's having a Podkolzin problem of playing too safe. Looked pretty good next to Chytil creating movement in the ozone but here he needs to find a way to the middle and shoot.

Jekyll and Hyde B2B games for Myers so far. Just imagining him taking a puck over glass penalty 5 mins into every playoff game in the next 3 years.

 

[Kryten]

Should have dumped him for a 5th at this point.

Im fine keeping him as a self rental. You would think he would try a bit to audition for his contract with whoever

 

[Canuckle1970]

Fiesty game. Feeling nervous. Hope we can stay with Utah for another 2 periods.

 

[sting101]

Quinn better be careful might get a bad reputation

 

[Canucks LB]

Mancini is legitimately good, what a nice find

 

[sting101]

Never knew Mancini played with Mueller in Nebraska. Canucks were obviously familiar with him. Has been better than his production would indicate

 

[Canucks LB]

People are being way too hard on lekk, this is a guy who’s a rookie in professional leagues, scored an absolutely ton of goals already in the AHL, and has the world ahead of him.

Is he ready right now, probably not, but he still a top prospect, he’s beat all expectations so far.

 

[MS]

really? Who is gonna play in the top6 down the road?

You cant just have a bunch of fast low IQ talents running around. Need to have some goal scorers and smart players who can create and PPs are a thing. Lekk looks like one of the few that know how to take advantage of them

Yes, but is Boeser’s level of play this year materially different from Victor Olofsson, a guy you could sign for $1.5 million?

Boeser has had one 40-game stretch in the last 4 years where he was anything better than a $4 million player.

 

[Canucks LB]

As for brock, I remember Rick saying many times that sometimes a player needs to see the game from a different angle to really get an appreciation.

I think it might be a good time to let Brock sit one game to really get some appreciation, because right now he’s just ineffective, let’s hope for a big rest of the game here for him

 

[Kryten]

GI

 

[Kryten]

MP got away with an elbow there

 

[MS]

That felt like a break on first viewing but Carcone definitely chose to carry through and hit the goalie there.

 

[Peen]

Should be a goal. That’s a quick whistle

 

[quat]

Wow. They got a call

 

[Peen]

Yes, but is Boeser’s level of play this year materially different from Victor Olofsson, a guy you could sign for $1.5 million?

Boeser has had one 40-game stretch in the last 4 years where he was anything better than a $4 million player.

He was good in the playoffs as well last season

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Not surprised, we usually get killed

 

[quat]

And another. Finally. The game suffers when the refs let go so many infractions

 

[Peen]

Dumbass penalty from Crouse. Looking like an early season Hoglander with the penalties 190 ft from your own net

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

That kid behind the Utah bench is fat af

 

[M2Beezy]

HUHEGHEGESESESES

 

[quat]

Utah is playing well. Which sucks ha ha

 

[Bgav]

Actually hilarious how different it is to watch this team with Hughes playing

 

[Canucks LB]

Brock!?
