-dlc- Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I recall a comment about coaching/credit to Tocchet but don't want to go back to find it. Was tired/shutting down and didn't respond but my thoughts were that we have a great "team" of coaches and it takes a village to raise a good hockey team. I believe we have personnel in place to address most issues and really fine tune things. Gonchar, Foote, Clark, the Sedins, etc. Also...who the hell is the clown with Kyper on 650 in the morning. Justin Bourne is an idiot. Gave NO credit to the Canucks and talked about their horrible first period where they were outplayed and only registered 4 shots. So yeah...someone maybe checking the stats would think that but anyone with one eyeball who actually watched the game saw us taking it to the Preds. I mean 20 hits? They don't count as doing anything? We were 12/17 in the dot. YES, they only registered 4 sog but they also missed quite a few. This clown should NOT be covering our team...I don't care if he was born here or not. Was he? Who even is he? I hate him already. His slant was SO Preds and he even commented something to the effect of them basically gifting us this game. I shut it off and shook my head. Then banged it against a wall. I will NOT tune in to that bonehead again. He should be fired...his take was hot garbage. Did he go to the Ron McLean school of hockey observation? 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that we have them....the whole family is awesome. Natalie is a superfan, loves it here and is super down to earth. I love all of them. So cool. I do love that you respected their privacy like that....matters. I mean, these people are just out living their lives.

Popular Post JayDangles Posted April 23 Popular Post Share Posted April 23 (edited) 3 hours ago, RupertKBD said: Re Podz vs PDG: I don't think a swap of the two would make a huge difference, but my gut tells me that Tocc goes with the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" play. He'll probably shuffle the deck a bit if and when the 'Nucks lose....especially if they have trouble scoring.... Also.. it could be a long playoffs if things go well... being able to inject Podz into a game 6 where his legs are fresh and he comes out flying can be a difference maker. We have a couple good options for adding guys (podz, Juulsen, Karlson) but no need to add them in just yet. PDG is reliable and defensively sound. We roll with what we got until we need a spark. That's how I think Tocc will work this. Keep your secret weapons secret for as long as possible. Edited April 23 by JayDangles 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got twice as many PPs as us lol At your prompt, I went there too. They sound just like us, complaining about the refs, pumping up their favourite players etc. lol. We are all fans.

-dlc- Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 So true. We're a little spoiled here and have really had some great calls. Even Al Murdoch is the best of the best. I hear other games and my ears bleed or I fall asleep. So glad we have the crew(s) we do. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure10Kuzmenko96 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 6 hours ago, Pure961089 said: What are the chances the Canucks can bring up Lekkerimaki for the playoffs? I find it hard to believe he would be less productive than Lafferty or PDG. Petey's confidence is withering on the vine, he needs some talent to play with and his line isn't getting him the puck. Lekkerimaki would give Petey an injection of confidence in his veins. Petey is playing indecisive and with not much confidence, but it would help if he was playing with top 6 talent. Lekkerimaki is back in Sweden 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammertime Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 3 hours ago, stawns said: Karlsson has been one of the most effective pests in the ahl for two years now. Im a big fan, but I don't know if he's got the skating ability to play in the NHL. Everything else is there! I've always seen him as a bit more Granlund than Hansen. I would love to see more thorn than rose from Karlsson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karma-Kazi44 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 My thoughts with Podz is the coach kept him out because Podz lets pressure get into his head and he didn’t want to let the game one pressure cause him added stress. He will get his shot and will shine. But the coach was smart to keep him out. If he plays and makes a mistake with the pressure of a game like last night he might be off his game for the next while. Let the vets push the pace and get some of the jitters out and then Podz can come in and play his game with a little less pressure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet we could win the cup, and there’d still be a lot of Toronto media guys who did not watch a single game and still say the Canucks got lucky or something like that. It is pretty infuriating that ‘experts’ who are paid a lot of money cannot be bothered to watch every playoff game. I’m a casual fan, yet I tune into almost every playoff game. The excuse that it’s too late when it’s literally your job is an absolute joke. That’s why I always say fuck them and fuck Toronto and their excuse for a hockey team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket-68 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) WOW, the Coilers are kicking the crap out of the LA Queens. Assuming LA doesn't right the ship and our Boyz elevate their play even more over yesterday, should be a great R2 series Canucks vs Coilers. Come on LA, make a series out of it and take it to 7 games with at least 3 long OT's along the way. Edited April 23 by Rocket-68 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
