ronning4center Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) Peteys contract is going to make the Louie erikson deal look like a library fine. This is the greatest talent collapse I've seen since Jonathan Huberdeau. The man looks like a kid being dragged to the dentist. Zero joy or passion. What the actual f@ck is happening here? Sit the poor guy to heal his lost soul. Edited May 15 by ronning4center 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally but we still live in a world where men are supposed to “Tough it out”. Some of us males are just programmed to bury it and suck it up but it comes back with all sorts of issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will know if it is an injury like a hernia soon after the playoffs but if it is him going through something in his life then it needs to be addressed asap if possible. We see how much that can affect a player with Boeser. The guy was a literal ghost while he was dealing with his father's health/loss but look at him now unburdened and made peace with all of that. Brockstar is arguably our best player right now. Edited May 15 by 24K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sit the poor guy to heal his lost soul. Whatever is going on, it ain't gonna be solved this playoffs. We will see how he does next season. If he still isn't back to old Petey, we have a major issue on our hands. This wouldn't be the first time a superstar just dropped off the map and came back with a vengeance the next season (looking at MacKinnon). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Crossbar Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) 17 minutes ago, CanucksJay said: I wonder why he's playing like that. He's got the skill to beat the opposition and he used to play with heart. After thinking about it, my guess is this ... He was used to being dominant, the star of his teams, the young phenom, the elite scorer, the guy everyone looks to ... on a young up and coming team where he was dubbed the future. All of a sudden, Miller elevates his game, Hughes breaks out, Boeser emerges into his potential, Garland raises his game, Joshua emerges, we also have Hronek, Zad, Lindholm, etc ... Suddenly Petey isn't the top star and the only guy we rely on. Suddenly the entire team is getting it done and overshadowing him. He may be feeling insecure and vulnerable. This may be the first time he's ever experienced it at the top level. If so, he will come out of it. He just needs to continue to work through it.

Really it's not like petey is flying out there and standing out making his linemates look bad. He is blending right in with Mik. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

viking mama Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) 1 hour ago, Rick_theRyper said: Kane should've been out of the game, like Elliot said, " there's no such thing as a cross check to the face double, it's a major and game" that's what he was saying Toch was most likely up set about early in the game. Kane had two hands on the stick when he cross checked Myers up high. Wasn't a high stick. Was a cross check. That was another big missed call. Just like Hoggy getting speared in the nuts then gets a penalty. More people on TV need to bring light on these. Not just tripping calls missed and shit, but game altering calls, major and gAmes being missed! The NHL’s most senior officials, whom this league claims are the best of the best…are proving that they are more like the worst,…again. It’s totally a league machination & play-off manipulation. They know the oldest are in fact, the slowest, less likely to see or call penalties & this produces more old-school drama for them to misinterpret. Plus - they definitely have had far more time to grow their big egos, leave humility behind & develop more biases or grudges than their younger counter-parts…biases ready to exploit when seeding them into certain series in the play-offs. I’m quite convinced that the NHL’s power-brokers & Bettman want McDavid to hoist the Cup, as soon as possible - after all of the notoriety they’ve given him as the “best hockey player in the world” & the vast amount of recognition in awards that he’s received for his trophy case. The Canucks will definitely be paddling up-stream as far as these duely appointed officiating crews go…& any more DPS judgements to follow, too.

If hes playing through something I can accept that, if he's checked out he needs to go, I guess, as a huge fan, not knowing is tough especially where we are now in the post season. I'd love nothing better to see every player succeed and to win the Cup but, being a fan since day one, there's been a lot of disappointment.

Arguably Mik is making Petey look worse and contributing to his lack of confidence as the few chances Petey manage to create for Mik, it does not go in or the play die on his stick.

The Aquaman Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 It sucks Zadorov, will be an UFA this summer. This has to be a major priority to resign him, maybe over pay him….1.5 extra? 6-7 million for 6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post D-Money Posted May 15 Popular Post Share Posted May 15 Really poor game by a lot of players tonight. But I’m fairly confident going forward. Fun fact: Pickard hasn’t started 2 games in a row all season. He’s a 32 year-old career 3rd stringer. He was decent tonight, but I expect he’ll get progressively worse each game. Gotta get more shots though, get him tired. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
