First he should rehab his knee injury don’t you think? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could've taken an additional week or two off as well. Poorly handled yet another injury on this team Should never have been playing in ASG and choose to miss one game post ASG to ensure that all is in order. 5 games on the road in February and lots of games compounded the issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes is way bigger then Petey he's 5'10 170 Lbs. At 6'2 Petey would have to be about 185 Lbs to be about the same size as Hughes, proportionally and trust me 9 lbs would make a world of difference to his game. there are plenty of scientific research out there that have proven muscle gain is highly based on genetic.. some people are not capable of gaining muscle weight no matter how much train what kind of diet they go on etc etc.. but go on EP sucks because he's refusing to train properly and put on weight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDM's pp success largely came from their ability to consistently skate cleanly into our zone, and then create a wealth of scoring looks with clean puck movement and elite talent. the powerplay just feels like its players coaching themselves based on what they remember of jason kings stationary set plays whereas other teams like edmonton adapt their powerplay zone entries and their looks based on whether the penalty kill pressures or hangs back etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks PP1 had a really tough time dumping it in (2nd unit was better at it). If PP1 had that dump in option threat it might help w skating the puck in more often 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MeanSeanBean Posted May 23 Popular Post Share Posted May 23 (edited) 59 minutes ago, hockeyville88 said: I haven’t watched the full interviews either but from what I can gather over Twitter, he eluded to the fact that his passionate character is more accepted when things are going well rather than when things are not, and he knows that now. Whether or not he specifically mentioned the fans in the exit interviews today, I don’t know yet, but he has genuinely sounded touched every time he’s been asked about it in the past couple of weeks. Petey just sounds very disgruntled and even when asked about the fan support, his comments do not seem genuine. Again, he sounds very much like Naslund, who said what he had to say out of obligation, but never really felt like he meant it Have you listened to Peteys then? Because I have now. But I assumed you must have listened to his as well if you feel comfortable with saying he sounds like a "whiney baby". Unless you're just taking second hand information from one of the most toxic places on the internet and formulating your opinion from that. As someone who's now listened to the whole interview, I simply disagree with your assessment entirely. Petey said it was a loud season with his contract talk, and was looking forward to going home for some rest, and immediately followed up with he was also excited to get back to training so he could come back better next year. He even had a good chunkle mid interview when Miller goofed on them, which is generally more personality he normally shows. Petey is clearly a very serious person and is also communicating in his second language. They only question he may have sounded "disgruntled" in, is when he was asked to reflect on the season. But even then he literally gave the same answer as Hughes, which was essentially I haven't had a chance to think about it yet since they were trying to take some time away from hockey. Which is completely fair. Edited May 23 by MeanSeanBean 5 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if he ever wants to be truly great at the game he's going to have to start taking his time in the gym more serious. I've been working out my whole life I've seen many many people, what they can accomplish 4 months of training seriously in the gym, and I can tell you flat out Petey is not taking that part of his career serious at all. I am not sure what you're talking about. Did you see him in training camp? Dude was ripped had put on weight and clearly worked very hard in the offseason. His knee was hurt in January. Part of players being prepared all season includes working out between games to maintain their strength, weight and size as the season wears them down (ie they're skating miles every 2 days, literally). Hockey players maintain most of their strength in their legs and their core. If you can't work out your lower body because of knee tendinitis you're going to start losing weight, and for a player like Petey it affects him even more. I think you need to think beyond your biases and perhaps analyze things a bit deeper before you attack the guy as "lazy" in the offseason.

Can attest on personal experience. In my younger years I played high level competitive volleyball and worked out like crazy, with the diet and all for years. No matter how much I worked out - couldn’t gain any muscle mass. And before someone says “you didn’t work out properly” - it was under supervision of professional strength and conditioning coach with years of experience. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker67 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Miller Pettersson Suter Aman Raty Assuming Blueger and Lindholm leave, this is what the Canucks have at C. Not good enough, so I hope they'll be shopping for a good #3C (better than Blueger). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
