Popular Post Grandmaster Posted January 28 Popular Post Share Posted January 28 What a game! I was there with my wife and another couple. We ruled the first and disappeared in the second. Then going down 4-1 and getting that 5min majour was brutal but our boys sure turned it around and did the impossible! We were seated 5 rows up from the ice in 103/104. You can really feel those hits our guys were delivering, especially big Z, pure physical monsters! 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such reviews will be conducted exclusively by the Referee(s) on the ice in consultation with other On-Ice Official(s), as appropriate, using the technology (for example, a handheld tablet or a television or computer monitor) specified in and provided pursuant to Rule 38.5. Communication between the Situation Room and the On-Ice Officials shall be limited to contact between the appropriate Game Logger in the Situation Room and the Referee to ensure the Referee is receiving any and all video they might request, as well as the appropriate replay angles they may need to review the penalty call. There shall be no other contact or consultation between the On-Ice Official(s) and the NHL Situation Room, or with any other non-game participant. The Referee shall only have the following options following video review of his own call: (i) confirming his original Major Penalty call; or (ii) reducing his original Major Penalty call to a lesser penalty for the same infraction The refs screwed up! The Refs or "Toronto" You almost can see this happening to Canucks in the future and not getting the same call, saying "After review it was determined there was no elbow to the head (on called player in the box) and no penalty" Edited January 28 by Ballisticsports 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dr. Crossbar Posted January 28 Popular Post Share Posted January 28 I love it when we're down in a game and people give up hope, jump off the bangwagon, start being negative, AND THEN we come back and win. There's a lot to learn about never giving up in the face of adversity when all seems lost. Games like this restore my faith in hope. 2 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bishopshodan Posted January 28 Popular Post Share Posted January 28 Great effort last night. Didn't give up, kept after it, great PK... Signs of a very good team. We have been consistent for a long time now. We are in the conversation, this year. Plan it. 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 44 minutes ago, stawns said: I wouldnt say comparing schedules is fear mongering and I wouldnt say it doesn't matter. Home ice matters, especially against a team Ike the Oilers, where you need to match up against McD. The Oilers have a much easier schedule and path to first in the Pacific than Van does and they're not likely to lose many more games if they stay healthy. I'm not so concerned about the Oilers, but they need to stay ahead of Vegas, imo. So are you saying we are where we are now because we've just completed the "easier" part of our schedule? Oilers will play 37 games in the 2 months following the Allstar break, we'll play 33. Doesn't that make our schedule easier? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like games in hand, the same adage applies - have to win the easy games and as the Canucks (and many teams in the league have shown), there are no easy games and no one can be taken for granted.

Like they did out of the gates when they fell on their faces? Why not? Not so sure we should just ignore/forget that part and pretend it isn't relevant. It's possible they stumble again based on their earlier record. People high on the Oilers need to remember that, just like this/any team, they're subject to lose at times. And they're not there yet so yes, their win streak is impressive but it simply offsets their HORRIBLE start. They were desperate and have gone on an amazing roll...like our team did last year. Nothing to lose stuff. Home ice matters but...this team did very well on the road. People who pencil it all in have been wrong before. Not sure they have it all figured out in advance based on paper and schedules. Some people will never really buy in I guess. Always setting us up to fail. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within the remaining schedule our big tests will be against Canes Bruins x2 Red Wings x2 Jets x3 Avs x2 Knights x3 Kings x 4 Oilers Stars The boys will get a taste of playoff type hockey before the playoffs even start 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RupertKBD Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 The won't be a popular take, but I'm okay with the call on Myers, even if the league and the zebras misinterpreted the rule for overturning a major... For the past several years we've known the league is trying to crack down on head shots and even though the Myers elbow looked inadvertent, it did draw blood, which as we all know is the NHL equivalent of "causing injury". Looking at it "glass half full", I think if Canuck fans were faced with the choice of having Myers or Cole kicked out of the game, the Giraffe would likely win in the biggest landslide since Gordo skunked Ujjal Dosanjh 76 to 3.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems more than a little narrow minded LOL Yes, because some here can predict the future yet, for whatever reason, have never won the lottery. You can look at a big picture but you can't foretell the outcome of unplayed games. Also......small picture = looking at the Oilers from December 21 onward and ignoring where they were before that. Big picture factors in the entire season/performance. Same applies to looking ONLY forward with the Canucks and ignoring what they've done to date. Small picture stuff. Big picture includes all of it. It's fine to be high on the Oilers....but they're just as likely to falter as this team is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
