We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

People will tell me I’m either wrong or that not enough people will be there to care, but I think we’re very close to some rabid home crowds that don’t really give a shit who they boo or chant to be fired anymore. You saw how bad they got in games 2 and 3 of the 22-23 season. Add on two more consecutive playoff losses and things will get bad. And then the last Fire Lindy game in 2024.
However, we’re probably not gonna hear things get as bad or as out of control as my doomsday prediction until we’re out of a playoff spot. Maybe if it continues into this road trip then they come home to some really nasty reactions.
But I do expect a nasty ovation if we lose this one tonight. Just not an out of control one.

I’m more shocked by Lazar. I hope that’s the last we see of him as a Devil, but he’ll probably be back in another game or two, no matter what the results are.

If they have to play a post elimination home game (which means things have really gone off the rails) it will be nasty. Otherwise I doubt it.
Anyways…Markstrom again?
He looked like he was skating ok last game. Keefe should sit mercer and make a statement

Some little Canucks info for you guys.
There are lots of reports out here that there’s a significant chance if not a guaranteed one that Pettersson (F) is not going to play, alongside Hoglander.
Raty got the emergency call up, which leaves us with Suter raty bleuger and aman as our centers for this one
Demko is also confirmed to be back tonight, after lankinen was feeling sick last game.

We only have one capable center if that makes you feel betterSome little Canucks info for you guys.

I actually don’t mind it. Did Dowling and Foote play together much in Utica?

Thanks for the tips there. Our lineup that I updated in the first post of the thread appears to be what we're going with. Offense has been a challenge to come by consistently at even strength for us, so this sounds like it has the makings of a barn burner.
Markstrom appears to be getting the nod for us as well, and he has struggled mightily since coming back from injury. Which is a shame, because he was having a Vezina caliber year in the first half.

Last two are home games I believe. And I think they’re even on back to back nights?
I think the only thing that saves that is if they’re not eliminated until after that game ends and need to rely on a result from a later game or a game the next day. I do not know if our season finale is on the final day of the regular season or not, that’s why l say the next day.
The only other thing to avoid that is we make the playoffs.
And yes, Markstrom. Keefe clearly doesn’t know how to coach because he doesn’t know which goalie to use.
And he did the same thing starting the playoffs with Samsonov last year. Or at least waiting till it was 2-2 to switch.
He also deserves blame for this. HUGE blame, but not he needs to be fired blame. That solely belongs to the GM right now.

I mean I'm not booing Markstrom tonight but that's also cause he's coming back from an injury and was playing really well before that and he clearly isn't back to 100%
Back to back but at Boston and then at home vs Detroit to close the season out.
Glass is ok... Not a world beater or anything, but he's looked a lot better than whatever the hell Haula has been this year...

I would boo Keefe (and Fitz) who are forcing him to play.
I’ll be booing Fitz until we clinch.
And will not at all be psyched that he’s back next year, but I do think he deserves to come back if we make the playoffs.
He’s had ample time. This needs to be a playoff year.

My mistake.
But if I’m not once again mistaken, that road game at Boston is our lone road game of April and after this last road trip?
The lines are fine, because Haula and Noesen are interchangeable. 4th line is another attempt to find anything there. The most important thing here is the Palat Mercer Tatar line being reunited which was an important line during the 4-1 stretch the team had. They ate up some hard minutes.
