4-1 Canucks Miller

He lives there now.

Right?

Exactly, and that's when people say "we pass it around too much" and yell at Petey to shoot regardless of the situation. They know. It's not as easy as it looks though. Petey'll be fine.

Doughty spelled "accurate" wrong.

I'm pretty sure he knows he's not doing his job (to the level we/he'd like). You can't tough love someone in this situation because he already likely knows and is trying to fix it. He's in a bit of a funk but it won't last forever. I do agree though, if we're going to make any noise he has to one of the leaders in that. He's often double/triple teamed and has to find a way to use his subtle moves (rather than will/brute force) to battle for the puck. I love that he's not afraid to show physicality but it's not his strong point. Pun intended. I do feel that what we're seeing with Quinn needs to be the standard....quickly get the puck to the net and then have a net front presence to follow up with and be ready for rebounds. Rather than the perfect pretty play. Don't be stationary because that gets too predictable...keep moving around.

Curling, chores, hockey. Busy day, let's go!!!! I love hockey. The end.

Anyone want to do the GDT for today?

I was at that game (lower bowl with my son). It was amazing and I still get goosebumps when I watch clips from it. Such a fitting way for them to sign off here.

Game highlights:

I feel like Ian Clark could turn my Auntie Anne into a great goaltender.

Eddie! He's awesome...he lives there.

That makes it a pretty good night.

Teams have ups and downs. No teams are slamming it all year as powerhouses.

I don't care how we won, I just care THAT we won. Good enough for me. Something to build off.
