Hoglander to 2nd line and Kuzy back up first line and Laffy to third line? Yah, I thought Lafferty was fighting the puck that period & a step-behind the play, instead of anticipating where the puck or the play was going.

Smashian Kassian Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 4 minutes ago, stawns said: Myers is better than Bear Bear may not be an amazing player but he doesn't make nearly as many boneheaded costly mistakes. Myers has some great games, then other games where he single-handedly costs the team games (see the Tampa game). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenbean30 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Just now, Canuckfanforlife82 said: Well earlier in the year he was stopping amazing chances. That’s the big difference a we aren’t getting those saves. Not his fault but it’s a big reason we won so many games early on. He was playing absolutely unreal at the beginning of the year. But to expect that to continue all year long is unrealistic. Demko isn't playing bad, he just isn't playing god-like currently. The team in front of him cannot be so relaxed in the d-zone, giving up grade A chances. It's not a recipe for success, and it's also not something to blame the goaltender on when he lets in a couple of the 10-15 grade A chances he faces a game.

Nucker67 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 As soon as the Canucks stopped hitting, they allowed the Devils to take over the game with speed. Get back to those big hits, wear them down. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While yes I agree, an average goalie still saves 3 of those 4 chances No they don't. The ONLY goal that you could argue Demko should have had was the first goal on the 2-1. The other 3, no chance.

Gawdzukes Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 27 minutes ago, stawns said: I'm betting the coaches see it differently. You never leave based on assumption. The biggest issue was the two fwds just standing there watching. That was the biggest issue on that play They're standing there because they are waiting for him to make an intelligent pass, not pass directly to the other teams best player. He had all day.

IceHockeyPlayer Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Their goalie is giving up juicy rebounds. If our defense is even average, we can still win this game. Agree with everyone saying “just shoot the puck”. Just like that commercial “you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take” ..”because you are an a$$O” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteyBoeser Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I think we should forefeit all future devils games and use the day for practice instead. Just play scrimmage in front of the fans so we can enjoy the Canucks win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stawns Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 2 minutes ago, Gawdzukes said: I know ... I'm just so frustrated by that play. I've seen it 100 times from him. Looks like a carbon copy every time. I don't understand why he isn't taught to be responsible with the puck. 95% of goals scored are the result of a series of plays, or misplays. Rareky is it ever on one player. Myers makes a bad pass, but two Canucks are standing there watching and zadorov is completely out of position. There's plenty of blame to go around on that goal Myers is actually having a pretty good season, but this board is full of people who need to lash out and he's the target. Does he earn some of that? Of course, but so does every player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
