Just remember, don't think about the contract. Don't think about the lack of points. Don't think about the lack of any dynamic play for more than minimal stretches of time. The terrible untimely giveaways are out of sight and mind too. All that aside and Huberdeau is alright.

Popsicle didn't look like he wanted a goal there, such a difference when a guy drives the net with determination - maybe not the best example but that's how it felt to me

Don't think about the Flames suckering themselves into signing him to a max length deal without even seeing him play a single game as a Flame. Don't think about it.

Kadri has taken a step or 5 back this year. He just isn't getting the entries that he was before. His defensive play has also been... optional.

All the more reason I don't understand why they don't try Zary at centre. But well ya know, whatever.

He has been awful. But he started out awful last year too and ended up as our leading scorer.
Maybe it's just his process.

Perhaps. But he was definitely more effective as a bumper on the pp last season. Could be early season downers and it'll be fine, but the guy is 34 so who knows.

What were Canucks fans chanting a while ago? Was it “so much better”?

lol they have a slightly higher percentage than our sad team. The Flames are travelling on a back to back in their 12th game in 21 days. Their team isn’t even young. What a bunch of losers.

Dunno if a W is in the cards here. Boys look real tired and it's not without good reason. Got a big homestand coming up which should tell us a lot how the rest of the season goes.

Least Vladdy is on his toes.

I thought Jack Michaels was a terrible announcer because of his homerism, but these two are freaking terrible too. Just repeating the same bullshit all night and pumping the Canucks tires. Getting tired of it. Then in the intermission they show Coilers highlights and just gush over them. Making me puke.
Not sure if you have cable but Flames feed is on sn1. Canucks on all the regional feeds.
I've gone back and forth today for fun.

Edit. (this is how it is for me in BC. I'm not used to having access to both feeds for flames v nucks)
