Yeah 

 

Do they practice at the park or at home with being upside down or does it come naturally?

Both were students at BCIT (Broadcasting program if I'm not mistaken). They would work out to prepare.

I'm sure they stay in shape. Whats amazing is one of them is living in Saskatchewan now, so it's a big deal when they come back.

Nucks need more pucks to the net skinner sucks 

and keep Cole on the bench and we might have a shot. 

[Rip The Mesh]

Shitty thing to say but ; A healthy Demko and this game would be 2-2.  Maybe better because the team plays different.

Oh, that's why Drysaitl had to leave. He's starring in it.

[CaknucklePuck]

I'd rather have our crowd than the Florida/Dallas crowd, you could hear people coughing mid game

[Maniwaki Canuck]

Brutal game from Cole so far.  That peeloff on Ceci was inexcusable.

Got to shakeup Miller and Petey, I think Petey's looked good but he's going nowhere with Mikheyev and Hoglander on his line. Get Petey back with Brock somehow, whether it's load up the Lotto line or swap Miller and Petey.

 

I know Tocchet is pretty patient but down by 2 heading into the 3rd, got to try something. 

Just swap the 2.  Petey with Brock and Suter.  Miller with Mik and Hogs.  Miller is fighting the puck tonight.

Yes and call up Podz to instead of PDG.

Yep, PDG has looked "All AHL" so far.  I'd take a chence on him at this point.  Nothing to lose.

[Dr. Crossbar]

Like Tocchet said, just keep grinding.

Lol someone might. 

 

Just announce he was playing with a significant injury after the playoffs. 

 

I'm sure JR can pull something off and fleece someone.. 

Imagine the impact say a Brady Tkachuk would made in a series like this…rumour is he could be on the block…

[DisgruntledNucksFan]

[Rindiculous]

We’re the better team.  I desperately hope Demko can get back 

[Jaimito]

It's just game one. 

 

Get the next goal early.  See if they can find a way to come back tonight,

You have to change the lines, Pettersson was open many times and his linemates can’t get him the puck. Bieksa is right.

Time for some Lotto Line magic

They're great, I'm so glad they make it to the game.

 

Married with children now.

Cole can make this up to us by headbutting a puck in. He can use his head in some way. 

[Dr. Crossbar]

No crying. We're not out of this yet.

[Darius]

as long as they have Skinner in net and Nurse  Ceci coughing up pucks theres always a chance.  Get one early here

Do we sit Cole and dress Juulsen in the next game?

Ya I don't think we have a choice. 

 

Cole needed rest at end of regular season. He getting up there in age.  Instead he played and didn't take any nights off.

 

Coaches have to replace him with Juulsen next game. Bring some energy and physicality in to next game. 

 

We can't afford to go down 2 - 0

If you saw John Shannon this week, he sads HNIC never puts regional guys on a conflicting series if they can help it.........and Shorty isn't really a HNIC regular

 

If the Leafs won it would have been Singh - it's bizarre that Singh gets the opportunity over Shorthouse.

[DisgruntledNucksFan]

If we lose this I blame Kevin he’s not wearing his Canucks socks 

[gwarrior]

So, somebody killed Draisaitl?

[1-d]

Stop shooting from the point and take the puck to the net. All the point shots are getting blocked / missing the net and we're not tipping the puck.

 

Both of our goals were scored at the goalmouth and Skinner isn't at his best coralling the puck. We gotta crash the crease and create chaos. Draisaitl is out also.

[-dlc-]

Take out a few more Oilers.

 

Please.

Time to shorten the bench and roll with three lines
