[PGT] Vancouver at Vegas


Recommended Posts

good win great game by hog but the PP still looks awful.. pretty sure i saw a 5 man unit of hronek hughes miller boeser ep at one point.. but EP was at the right point while hronek was down on the left wing?? the 2nd pp who the heck is the setup man? i see suter hoglander lindholm podkolzin and hronek.. none of them is a playmaker.

@brilac if the nucks vs kraken, who you cheering for? Or could do the half n half jersey

 

Oh wait, let me take that back in a sort of way. The last game, I wore my Kraken watch with my Canucks attire. 

 

My Kraken watch is really cool!

Then if you're able to go get Toffoli and Greenway tomorrow...

 

Höglander - Pettersson - Toffoli

Podkolzin - Miller - Boeser

Greenway - Lindholm - Mikheyev

Joshua - Blueger - Garland

 

that group could go toe to toe with anyone. 

 

Suter? It would be hard to see him out of the lineup given how sneaky well he has played

The PP unit looks like their confidence is completely gone. I don't understand why they aren't simply setting up Lindholm or Boeser in the slot and then having them either tip from the point or shoot from a pass. A bunch of teams have scored against us those exact setups. Way to many passes around the perimeter just waiting for the perfect pass that never comes. IF they don't get their Special teams sorted by the playoffs they're going to have a tough time.

No way we get both those guys and honestly id be scared to see what it took if we did.

Vegas looked flat, and we looked like a team that's ready for a playoff run. This upcoming 9 game home stand seems like a perfect launching pad to the playoffs. Let's go!

 

Still I'd be scared to face Vegas. Hopefully the standings shape in a way Vancouver faces Nashville and Vegas ends up in the Central Division bracket.

 

If Nashville secures the 1st Wild Card spot maybe Vancouver has to drop some games so the 1st place Central Division is higher in the standings?

I was surprised to see the shot totals since Vegas played so poorly. In the 3rd period the Canucks seemed like they took their foot off the pedal and let Vegas back in. Luckily Vegas didn't score, but they let Vegas get a lot more chances than they needed to. They really have to continue to keep a similar style of dumping in and keeping the puck in the offensive zone. Way too much time in their own zone in the 3rd that was more to do with the Canucks getting lazing with their puck movement than Vegas playing better.

I don't see how we get Toffoli. What would NJ take that we have in return? He has 26 goals. I don't think it would be good for us to get another pending UFA though, because how can we afford to keep him next year?

luckily for us there ain't much PP in the playoff.. but i would love for the PP to play with more pace and throw more puck into traffic and shooting the puck even if it's at a player.. there's not much PP in the playoff but it's a momentum changer if and when u get them

They gotta figure this out… you need a strong power play in the playoffs

i think it's time for RT to relinquish his role on the top PP.. nothing he's done is working and it's looking worse and worse every game.. our pp is non existent since the all star break.. RT should focus on what he does best discipline and defence structure.. we have like gonchar and the sedins who are all PP specialist..

I beg to differ, that scumbag piece of shit should be in prison, not having a chance to steal the WH and the most powerful job in the world for a second time. Sorry, but I cheer for him to choke on a "hamburder" every fucking day! And yes, that GIF is political. Oh, and I live in the US and will be walking on eggshells between now and November.

That is a very interesting opinion. You must be a highly regarded individual.

Guy sees one liberal AI generated tiktok video and all of a sudden thinks he has a poli-sci degree.
