It's on TV again. I'm a lucky guy. Still debating if I should get Game Centre or not.

 

[VanillaCoke]

So miller gets blown out by the Sharks behind our B team and markström gets a shutout behind our A team.
No goalie controversy here folks.

Gamecenter is free with a Rogers phone plan.

 

[Nuckles]

Sharks lineup

Nikolay Goldobin – Joe Thornton – Joe Pavelski
Patrick Marleau – Logan Couture – Joel Ward
Matt Nieto – Tomas Hertl – Tommy Wingels
Raffi Torres – Chris Tierney – Mike Brown

Marc-Edouard Vlasic – Justin Braun
Paul Martin – Brent Burns
Mirco Mueller – Brenden Dillon

Martin Jones

Canucks roster:

 

[Wayward Son]

Miller playing I'm guessing? This will be good.

And by this will be good, I mean this will be bad.

 

[Pip]

This could get ugly

 

[Baby Pettersson]

Wow. I just renewed with Sasktel literally 3 days ago. No Game Centre for me!

hearing Markstrom to start???..............makes sense with that full roster(SJ) vs young lineup(van)

well to be fair.


Markstrom faced the Flames A squad and went 13-14 for a .929

Miller then got the Flames AHL squad and gave up 4.

Every Canucks preseason game is scheduled to be on TV. Sportsnet seems to love Vancouver.







Those poor Oilers fans haven't had a single televised game yet in their region.

Strange. Back to back after a heavy shot volume game. 6mil backup.

 

[Rex Banner]

I'd like to see Horvat with Virtanen please. Thanks.

 

[Wayward Son]

Strange. Back to back after a heavy shot volume game. 6mil backup.

Honestly, at this point we should just be happy that good ol' Jimmy didn't give him like a 5 year deal or something.

 

[huntison]

Top line of

McCann - Horvat - Virtanen please. Thanks.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Shhhh quiet. There's still time to offer him an extension.

 

[Pip]

That wouldn't make any sense unless Miller is sick or hurt. Strange...

 

[ahmon]

sink or swim, if McCann, Gaunce and Hutton can play well even in this situation, they should be in.

 

[WhoseLainesItAnyway]

Kind of odd lineup against a full Sharks team, will probably mix and match throughout the game. Seems like the coaches are trying to decide who the 4th line center will be. Some guys (likely Gaunce & Virtanen) are going to be playing a different position than they've been playing since the start of camp. My guess on the starting line combos:

Baertschi - Horvat - Hansen
Virtanen - Vey - Grenier
Kenins - McCann - Dorsett
Prust - Gaunce - Cracknell

 

[Reign Nateo]

Interesting that the Sharks are going with their full NHL line-up at this point in the preseason.

There are too many preseason games.

 

[Zaddy91]

Hope mccann isnt too tired

Would be interesting to see Gaunce get a game as a center. Was under the impression the Canucks see him as a winger now.

 

[Eddy Punch Clock]

Benning putting Markstrom in a position to fail to avoid an early controversy?

Yep, still wearing my tinfoil hat.

 

[Wayward Son]

That projected Sharks line up might sting. Good to keep testing out stuff while we can, though.
