JayDangles Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Likely no Demko tomorrow. But here's the big question. Do you out him in Saturday against the Oilers? Depending on how tomorrow goes, Saturday might be an absolutely huge game for the Pacific standings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is Dallas is not the mighty powerhouse some folks around here claim them to be. They have the defence but pale in offence versus other contenders. Any of the 10 top NHL teams right now can win the Cup in a 7 game series. It’s a very rare event. There is no one clear cut favourite whatsoever 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to play once he has the green light to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNate Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 I know that any team we get in round one will have the ability to beat us, the West is stacked this year, but I think I'd rather play Vegas than LA/Nashville. Sure they get Stone back after not playing in months, but I think we match up well against them. Getting Demko and Lindholm back will be huge for us. Lindholm gives us many more options down the middle, and even if he doesn't produce a ton of points, he helps us all over the ice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker67 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 It really doesn't matter who the Canucks play, they'll have home-ice and the Canucks fans will be loud. We might possibly see the Green Men again for those games. It will be raucous and opponents will hate it. Love it. They looked really good against the reigning champs, and beat them. Let's say the Canucks face Vegas in the first round. So what, Vegas gets Stone back. Canucks will get Demko and Lindholm back, and that beautiful home-ice advantage. I like our chances.

Pure961089 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) I miss knowing what a penalty was. Remember when you saw an obvious penalty and it didn't matter what the score was or if one team already had a couple power plays it didn't matter because you always knew what a penalty when it was obvious. This play could have blown out Zadorov's knee. Looks like an obvious 5 and a game. Edited April 9 by Pure961089 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree though other than hitting from behind the slew foot is probably the most dangerous play you can make. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DeNiro Posted April 9 Popular Post Share Posted April 9 From what I’ve seen from Silovs he’s one of those goalies that doesn’t let the last goal affect him. Seems very calm and composed. Kind of like Demko. Even he lets in the odd softie but when the game is tight he locks it down. 2 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like Demko. Even he lets in the odd softie but when the game is tight he locks it down. Markstrom did that all the time. First shot or two in the game "GOAL!" for the bad guys. It's mental for some. Markstrom was no Luongo or McLean. Demko i'm not sure what he is yet. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamer4GM Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Not a huge believer in numerology as a basis for gambling, dating, travel plans or any other major life decisions but find it a source of intrigue and even fascination at times when numbers land and align in interesting or surprising ways. Many of you may recall Hank and Danny's last game and how the final score was 4-3 and the clock read 2:27 of OT (essentially 22:33 of the 3rd period). Always found that pretty cool although more so had we won 3-2 lol Well, great push back, overall play and end result aside, another thing I like last night is how Garly played in his FOUR hundredth game and Brock potted his FO(U)Rtieth goal and we now have FOUR games remaining until we need FOUR wins in FOUR playoff rounds to bring home The Cup from our FOURth trip to the final. Work with me ppl!!! IT'S A SIGN!!! >,< 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should of been a suspension for intent to injure and Pietrangelo's fake high stick head snap should of been a fine the next day. But not gonna happen in this crooked league. Imagine if Zadorov did that to one of the Vegas players!? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
