[GDT] Vancouver Canucks vs the Anaheim Quackers, Rogers Place (aka Da Garage), 12:30 PM PST, March 31, the Canucks Better Win Otherwise Trolls Will Preen like Peacocks GAME!

[BCNeil]

Need to win this one to clinch.  Don't see the sharks beating the blues tonight.

So we would then clinch by the Oilers beating the Blues, while the Canucks watch on tv.  

Worst way to clinch possible.  Plus we need Vegas to help out with the Wild 

[Bob Long]

Put Miller in the bumper spot. 

 

Oh and we clinch tomorrow.

reasonable start time, guess i'll watch that one live

[SnakeDoctor]

This game will get us in the playoffs 

[AnotherCanucksFan]

Edmonton up 3-0 on Anaheim. Very likely we're going into tomorrow with Edmonton 4 points behind the Canucks with a game in hand. When we meet Edmonton on Apr 13th, will they be tied or will one pull ahead?

We have hit the point in the season where the good teams have taken foot off gas and are thinking about the playoffs and the bad teams are winning games to show really we aren’t that bad.
Anything can happen.

Looks like the Ducks have packed it in.

Somehow Tocchet will make it a tight checking game, win 1-0 or some dumb shit

 

[Rip The Mesh]

That's for practice. It may or may not be final.

Yep. Systems. Only passing on the powerplay. Protect the 1 goal lead you got in the first minute of the game. Play Miller with each winger at least once.

Swap Huggy and Honker ...

The pp clearly needs a new approach. Any consistent success there would completely turn this team around. Pk has been more good than bad. 

Seems to me the lines have been juggled almost every game for the last 3 months. I’d like to see them 

go back to what was working and leave them for 7 games to get a reading. 

Right???

“We’ve got to start scoring more off broken plays...Big percentage of goals [around the league] are off broken plays.”

 

They definitely have the skill to pull this off. They just need the mindset to get it to the net as quick as possible. Quick pass shoot, no more of this pass pass pass circle back, always defer to Hughes pass pass pass wrister from the blue line...

It would be great to know why Tocchet is saying the right things yet there's a disconnect on what the Canuck players are doing. Oddly, the Coach and fans agree on what needs to change, yet the players aren't changing.

Neither. We're winning the division in their barn.
