Have to give him credit for how he manages such inane chatter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spook007 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 4 hours ago, stawns said: As someone who took on that role through junior, and enjoyed it very much and was quite good at it, my personal opinion is that a "deterrent" doesn't really deter anything, it just provides some entertainment value. That's not to say I didn't enjoy exacting a little revenge or that my teammates didn't appreciate it it, but it never prevented anything from happening really. And given the severe head trauma most of these guys suffered in their career, it's probably best that it's left to history. Truthfully, the league is a far better deterrent than a player ever was anyway. Of the opposition has a player looking for a fight, I'd much rather have a tram mate ready to take him on... If a player wants to take QH or Petey out of the game, they can easily do so, but I don't want them targetted and having to answer the bell... It was great to see Lafferty jump straight in, when Benning desided to give Petey a nice cross check while on the ice instead of letting Benning off with it. If we had a player plummeting Benning into a pulp afterwards, maybe others wouldn't be so quick to also jump Petey. That's the one thing I took from 2011 cup finals, where the rat got to please himself. He really should have had his ass handed to him, but we didn't have anyone tough enough to take on looch or Chara... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Happy to see McWard getting in tonight, after Hronek the puck moving ability is severely lacking on that right side. We'll see what the kid can do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"winning is all that matters" is inherently a meathead mindset. 4 hours ago, Goal_thecup said: Without The Cup. I would rather us be the ones speed bagging Sedin in the head and winning the cup than be on the receiving end and not winning. I just feel like everything that happens on the ice stays on the ice and you can still be a decent person outside of it. The reason these guys play hockey should be to win the cup, not be the nicest human beings. In fact, I'd rather get rid of the players who don't have winning at the top of their list. Go be a nice guy in Columbus or Anaheim (who also coincidentally have cup). Which reminds me, they also had a huge POS on the championship roster (Pronger). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made them watch all the reruns every single day. Then I dream of Jeanie would come on and I made them watch that one with me as well. But on a canuck note, I really don't want to see another loss. I trust this team but these growing pains are hurting lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say both got a call up based on their strong pre-season, as opposed to how they are actually playing.........which I'm fine with, bit have showed well in their time in Van 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanucksJay Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Looks like RT just put the team on notice. I see the guys come out hard tonight and run the ducks out of the building I don't care that the ducks are on a multi game slide and bring a big effort. So will we and when we do, we're a lot better than them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more tastes he gets up here the better. Like Green said a number of years ago about young guys ... some need to develop down below, other guys are better served going up and down. Hopefully his stint up here resets his game and gives him a boost of confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
