GDT: WCQF GM05 | Vancouver Canucks vs. Nashville Predators | Tue. Apr 30th | 7:00PM PST | SNP/CBC | Hey, hey, I wanna be a Brock Star

[God]

Turns out those “Shoulda drafted Nichushkin!” guys in the Horvat draft were right.

Nichuskin would've stayed in Russia if he went through Benning and Weisbrod's "development system".

 

[Nomobo]

Bo’s done and I’ll tell you that for free.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Nichushkin has 7 goal already damn.

The quietest modern day cover up recently with him

Hughes is 4th in TOI on the Canucks defense. 6:22. Zadorov is at 8:11.

Zadorov is hitting hard, skating the puck out, defending well, protecting the net, protecting the boys. Not re-signing him is going to be such a mistake for our window.

 

[ForecheckBackcheck]

It's not that we can't still contend in a few years. We'll be more in a position the Leafs are in. No young ELC steals but still a good team capable of winning. Just hopefully we aren't no shows like they are!

Yeah. The team could still be playoff caliber after 2026-2027, but Miller and even Demko will be getting up in age, and the big contracts in place for EP40 and Hughes will require a ton of surplus value elsewhere in the lineup to keep a true contending window open.

But hey, 2023-2024, 2024-2025, 2025-2026, 2026-2027 is a pretty solid window! 4 cracks at it.

I'll travel to the end of your prick tonight.

I'm on the receiving end of a SopelFan sexual innuendo. I feel officially part of the group now.

@SopelFanThe3rd hacked bacon's account

Nah, Bacon's a know board perv.

 

[WTG]

The quietest modern day cover up recently with him

Yup, if he played in a big Canadian market he'd be out of the league

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

Derek Roy has a horse face

 

[Britton]

Unlucky to not be up 2-0. Best period in ages.

Nashville did well to not take any penalties under all that pressure.

Yeah that period was absolute domination even more so than the 3rd period in game 2. Bodes well that this is their best game when a lot of teams without a lot of playoff experience would probably have a let down game

 

[Petey O]

Nichuskin would've stayed in Russia if he went through Benning and Weisbrod's "development system".

You’re probably right.

 

[Regal]

Nichuskin would've stayed in Russia if he went through Benning and Weisbrod's "development system".

And even if not, at the very least he probably needed the kick in the ass of changing teams multiple times

 

[StickShift]

Good period compared to what they had been delivering—but they need to convert on this OZ pressure. I expect Nashville to come out flying in the 2nd.

Vancouver ought to get a make-up call for the Milller penalty if the game stays tied.

You'll be on the receiving end of group parts all right

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

Should have picked Nichushkin.

Gillis screwed Benning.

 

[Jovofan]

Just got in from work, looks like a much better effort from the team tonight from what I've seen.

You can give or you can take. Or you can do both and be popular

 

[LemonSauceD]

Don’t worry, we have Kravtsov @EdJovanovski

 

[SopelFanThe3rd]

You can give or you can take. Or you can do both and be popular

Popular and sore.

 

[LemonSauceD]

Catching or pitching!

 

[Zanon]

Should have picked Nichushkin.

Gillis screwed Benning.

We need Podkolzin to become a Nichushkin

It's not so great. Most of us are just bots.

 

[Flik]

Lots of lurkers I don't recognize in the thread tonight, they should introduce themselves imo
