Post-Game Talk: LVGK 3 Canucks 1 (Debrusk)

[Kryten]

Chytil's speed & poise is fantastic, but guy misses the net too much.

He was in a great spot playing with good players in a secondary role (match-up wise) got the best shooting opportunities of anyone on the team and missed the net every Fing time.

I'm not off the Chytil bandwagon at all, but c'mon fella.

Honestly though. The team was really rusty, and I think it was to be expected. EDM got dummied by Philly, NYR got embarrassed by Buffalo. Not saying the roster is perfect but we didn't have our A game tonight & other good teams didn't either.

I thought Pettersson's line was their best. Got the only goal.. Idk. Its first game out of the break. Pettersson being hurt is a concern but they just need to shake off the rust more than anything.

Hopefully they win tommorrow & can start getting back in a positive groove.

That guy who misses the net every time led the team by a wide margin with 6 SOG tonight, Im not sure how many shot attempts he had though

Tell that to Vegas. But that is Vegas and no taxes

And tampa.. but yeah they drafted some stars blah blah so did we

The Dak/Garland pairing are getting chances but aren't coming through clutch like they did last season, maybe with a better center they can bury some more chances. They need to find a 2C and drop Chytil down. They have a collection of middle tier pairings Dak/Garland, OConnor/Chytil, Debrusk/Sherwood.

Put chytil between dak and garland

Great… now the new excuse for EP40 being hairy ass cheeks for the rest of the year will be because of his knee.

Trade the snowflake already

Pettersson is currently on pace to finish with less than 20 goals for the first time in his career. And he's currently the fifth highest paid player in the league.

This is 'bad' folks. It's been over a year now. And if this is all they're going to get, then this would be the worst contract in franchise history--and it wouldn't even be close as to which was the 'second worst'.

Allvin is a master craftsman at sliding out from under onerous contracts. But there's no sliding under the limbo bar with this one. It would be 'franchise-crippling' for years.

Blow it all up, and trade Petterson for Huberdeau ! Lol

There's still a path to the playoffs there, but we need Quinn back immediately. Too bad the medical staff keeps fumbling players' recovery from injuries.

Good effort, but wasted another strong game by Lankinen.

Offense is a black hole without Hughes, and if Boeser wants the big bucks, and EP40 wants to remain here, they have to at least find a way to produce something on the PP, especially in a tight game like this. People complain about $3m Myers, who's actually providing great value, but the loss is squarely on those two. They're "the" guys in that lineup.

I don't think they should extend Boeser, he's not a difference maker, he really misses Miller, and is only going to get slower. With EP40, unless you're absolutely sure he's going to recover and/or rebound and produce 100 points per year consistently, and not simply PPG production, because that's what $11.6 million should be getting the team, you have to deal him and do it before his NT kicks in. He shouldn't have gone to 4 Nations, he could have used the time off, and maybe even a week on either end of it. Plug Raty into the lineup for now, there's really nothing to lose.

EP25 still looks like he belongs in the limited time he received.

PPG while being elite defensively in shutdown minutes is absolutely worth $11.6M. He doesn’t need to score 100+ points.
