GDT: [GM75] Canucks @ Golden Knights | Tue. Apr 2nd, 7:00pm | SNP | On the Road Again

[ProviesGhost]

I haven’t seen this many 3 on 2’s all year. Teams rattled against these battle hardened teams. One step at a time I guess.

 

[God]

I don't love Bains in his current state, and I think Linus Karlsson would be a substantial improvement. Bains simply doesn't have the strength right now to deal with NHL size.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Well that's a pretty big problem, I don't care how good Hughes is, there's going to be shift they need to defend deep in their zone.

That's why I also believe you have to have a good defender with Hughes.

People got so excited when we put Hronek with Hughes like "he's going to unlock Hughes!"

Like no... Hronek is also an offensive defenceman.

The problem is we don't really have any good defensive defensemen. Soucy is probably our best and he's not top pairing caliber. So they opt to go with Hronek because he's a RHD.

 

[Bonham]

They're just being given so much ****ing space when they gain the zone. Step up on them, **** sakes.

Was going to say the same thing.

Way too much space coming into their zone.

 

[Regal]

Vegas is carving up the neutral zone with the quick passes causing odd man rushes. Need to adjust quick

Feel like they haven’t played a team that pushes the pace like this for awhile and it’s caught them off guard

 

[Canucks LB]

Yeah he’s not ready. Better off with Karlsson or PDG

Give raty a look, he’s been so good, also played in the NHL before

 

[Peen]

Again, to me, Bains looks relatively not so different than he did when he first got called up.

But he needs to sit. I’d rather have Aman filling lanes doing nothing than Bains.

what @God said

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Lol yikes

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

I don't love Bains in his current state, and I think Linus Karlsson would be a substantial improvement. Bains simply doesn't have the strength right now to deal with NHL size.

We have PDG and Aman in the PB. Both are defensively good.

 

[God]

Good job Ray. Call out the officiating.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

another goal and maybe canucks should pack it in and rest up. Need to save energy for Arizona tomorrow. They're a stronger team than Anaheim. Gonna need everything to beat them.

Looks like they already packed it in.

 

[Oliewud]

holy shit what a soft call

horrible start tochett get a grip on ur team

 

[AzNightmare]

PPG incoming...

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

JFC, refs, it’s already 3-1 and you call THAT? They don’t even need you on their payroll yet you f***ing idiot.

 

[Orca Smash]

Even Ray is calling the penalties against van lately rotten and rick just refuses to question it unlike other coaches and they keep walking all over him.

 

[SillyRabbit]

Wait, isn't game management supposed to work the other way?

You give weak calls to the team that's losing? Not to the one that's winning?

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Vegas bags one here..could be a long night

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Again I fail to see what this constant line juggling is achieving. We aren't a deep team up front and you need to compensate by ensuring your forward group develops chemistry.

Guys have no idea where to pass and our guys are completely unable to string together passes or control the puck in the offensive zone.

 

[PG Canuck]

So hard to be positive and even be excited about playoffs now. Just an absolute travesty.

 

[PavelBure10]

Ray calling it like it is, "That's a rotten call". Love Ferrero he calls it as he sees it.

 

[Canucker]

Is PDG hurt? He should definitely be in the lineup over Bains in a game like this.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

That's on Bains. Zadorov was trying to cover for him because he didn't take his man.

DeSmith can't make a save whatsoever.

I disagree he committed way to hard to Eichel he need to take away Eichel space with out being that aggressive and leaving Marchessault wide open. Also he let the pass go right past him on the goal.

 

[Petey O]

Well, Kelly ****ing Sutherland is reffing this game. Not going to get any help from the refs. It could get ugly fast.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Even Ray is calling the penalties against van lately rotten and rick just refuses to question it unlike other coaches and they keep walking all over him.

Tocchet’s not going to do that. Fastest way to get even worse calls is to publicly call out the refs, to say nothing of the league fining you. It’s just make it worse.

 

[wonton15]

Tocchet seriously cant see Bains getting shredded and Cole/Zadorov getting destroyed on the match up? These lines and matchups are trash
