Post-Game Talk: Pre-Season Game #5: Canucks 1 vs. Kings 4

[BassMason]

Very few players get picked up from Waivers at this time of the year, as all teams are having the same problem as the Canucks and teams tend to value their own players more than pick-ups from other teams.....so players, like Markstrom...and, in this case, Goldobin, sneak through. Also, if a team does pick up a player, they have to waive one of their own, which also reduces the possibility of teams picking up someone from waivers, at this time.

Teams will take flyers on younger guys with unrealized potential a la Corrado.

Oh, Gagner is playing

 

[The Iron Goalie]

LOL Gagner

 

[elwin316]

Vanek style, I enjoyed his 10 foot slapper goals.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Terrific pass by Stecher. Big respect to that kid to set that up. Huge play.

i briefly had a streaming feed with some dude commentating over the top telling me what the foxcasters said but then it died when the period ended.

looks dark in there

 

[Breakers]

When they had the olympics they had the same problem.

The ice was absolute garbage.

 

[Nucksin7]

Both of these teams look like they're going to struggle to score 5 on 5 this year.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Is Goldobin playing tonight? I haven't noticed him once and didn't think of it until now. He was in the lineup cards before this game, wasn't he?

 

[StrictlyCommercial]

I can't make this NHL.com stream work for the life of me.

 

[krutovsdonut]

dammit someone help me find a legal stream for this. the cdc link will not load at all.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

wow Markstrom, you gotta save that

 

[Josepho]

not great from markstrom there

 

[canucks20]

The play by play is awful, makes it even less watchable.

When it was Bob Miller, LA had the best in the business. Now it's not that good

 

[tantalum]

Likely should have been saved but what a great pinch by Gudbranson and that hustle on the way back! Something to behold.

 

[Nucksin7]

Just go to the Canucks official page for the stream. It worked for me.

 

[Breakers]

Juolevi allergic to body contact.

 

[Canucks LB]

This game my god

Another bad goal this preseason by our goalies

 

[tantalum]

Is Goldobin playing tonight? I haven't noticed him once and didn't think of it until now. He was in the lineup cards before this game, wasn't he?

He’s playing. Touched the puck once or twice but he’s actively playing himself off the team.

 

[WTG]

Gudbransons pinch there yikes

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Juolevi actively avoids contact and I think the first time someone Max Domi's him, he's mentally shattered.

 

[Canucks LB]

I know it’s only preseason, but we did not exactly do anything that inspires confidence that we’re not going to be the bottom three in the league this year

 

[WTG]

Schaller really hit a gold mine in Benning huh. If you were to tell me he's a PTO I would not have noticed.

 

[Josepho]

Upon further replay I really don't mind how Juolevi played that specific play.

But yes, that's going to be a bigger problem in other situations.

 

[Balls Mahoney]

Gaudette with a great shift. Well... noticeable which is great for this team right now.
