Post-Game Talk: Pettersson def. Kraken - 6-5 (SO) (Pettersson x2, Pederson, Boeser, Kuzmenko) (Petey SO Winner)

[Delocatedfan]

I am all for losing but glad I saw that game from EP40.

Was hoping he would tie Naslunds 6pt game but fitting he pots in the so

 

[Zippgunn]

Petey literally won us this game. Nobody else. Petey is the only one who gets this win.

I agree, I'll have to dis him more pre-game in the future, he made me look bad. And speaking of bad there's, well, pretty much everybody else on the team that isn't on his line. The goalie improved his sv % over the last two games by 46 points which is the good news. The bad news is tonight he was .861 with at least two real stinkers. Schenn had a bad game and I swear we didn't win 10% of the puck battles in the corners. There were a lot of pretty fancy plays but Lordy how many terrible blatant giveaways did we commit right in front of our net? Was it fun to watch? Oh yeah just like a demolition derby is often more fun to watch than F1. What this team needs to do is figure out a way to play with an extra man because they are unstoppable under those conditions. Dogshit still but entertaining dogshit nonetheless. Lord knows what will happen tomorrow. One thing is for sure, this is terrible for the tank...

That's fine for the standings or whatever, but fans act like their team played better/worse during the game as a result, which is just nonsense brainwashing.

Fans act the way they are told and the NHL tells them "a win is a win".

[Zippgunn]

Swing and a miss.

In spades!

 

[Nucker101]

In before EP plays an invisible game and everybody here cuts him huge slack because he had the flu...

 

[Zippgunn]

So close

Hey I'm laughing too. How wrong can you be. Sometimes, though, it's good to be wrong...

 

[sting101]

Jesus f***. Talk about B- squad on this SNP panel

I prefer to call it the "D" squad

 

[Nucker101]

In spades!

Now do Boeser next

 

[Vector]

Somewhere, Stillman is going “I did it! I wasn’t the worst defensemen tonight!”

Myers has had a lot of bad games, but holy shit. He was a full time Pizza delivery service in this game.

I'm still frothing over that blind backhand pass to his own blueline where the Kraken immediately scored.

 

[Canucks LB]

Man petey is having a huge statement season

 

[Zippgunn]

Now do Boeser next

Hey, my juju is only so strong...

 

[Vector]

As I was saying, the Canucks have managed to curse the Kraken. This is the closest they've come to a win.

The statement is "Please, can we give a f***?"

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

And yet the Kraken are still better and more likely to make the playoffs than the Abby Canucks

nice high before the Oilers punch us in the mouth tomorrow

I just want 1 NHL team to be our bitch the way we have been for everyone else so long. Closest thing we have is the Blues, as we're 4-0 in playoff series against them.

It’s our Stanley Cup

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Connor McDavid is going to do to us tomorrow, what Alexander the Great once did to his Chief Eunuch.

But for tonight, Petey is king.

There was a bucketload of posts tonight, for both teams...

 

[ahmon]

The canucks entire right side d is of bottom pairing quality (Myers, Schenn, Burroughs)

People continue to rag on Hughes, but he did a lot of good things to transition the puck tonight. Without him, I can't imagine how the canucks can transition the puck.

And Petey just dominated. Its feel like what happens when you send an NHL player to the AHL and he is heads and shoulders better than everyone else.

Kuzmenko moved this feet more this game, and you see the skill there. He's shown more chemistry with Petey in 30 games than Boeser has after years.

Continue to build around Petey, Hughes and rebuild that right side of the defense quick. It will be a waste not to compete with high end talent like that.

I want Petey to our score McDavud head to head

 

[calnuck]

It’s such a cool thing to be watching in real time.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I want Petey to our score McDavud head to head

If Jack Campbell is in, it’s possible.

Against Stuart Skinner…still possible, I guess.

But McDavid is going to make absolute hay tomorrow, no matter how many we score.

Watching Petey tonight was my gift from Santa (thanks you chubby great bastard)!

Hoping you all enjoy the holidays, and:
