Popular Post Slegr Posted October 14, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2023 Something that bothers me - I keep hearing how McDavid was whining about the Canucks using #1 power play late in the game when score was out of reach. But I thought I saw Canucks use their second PP unit first in those late opportunities, then give the number one until the remaining 30-40 seconds. Like seriously, what did McDavid want in that situation? For our 4th line to go out there? They’d probably start something and McDavid would have complained about that too. The guy really can be a whinny brat… he might play like a champion, but he doesn’t act like one. 2 2 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 They won't lose tonight if they played like they did last game. Full stop. The way they played was how a contending team played. I would love to see it 3 games in a row (including 1 preseason game). Also, it's non-gdt related but I watched Buffalo's first game and holy smokes Dahlin must have had an off night because he's not in the same tier or even close to compared to Hughes. Hughes is way more dynamic, better with his stick and just an overall smarter player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was right of them because they deserved it for hacking our players and potentially risking injury in a game they'd already clearly lost. They're lucky they didn't get the full pp1 and pp2 if you can't have class like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogs and Podz Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) What I'm most curious about is how both teams respond. Tocc wants team to come out flying as expected of the coil. Truth is, all the pressures on Edmonton, we're playing with house money on this game. If we play loose, structured, and hard to play against... I can see the coil getting really frustrated and in disciplined. Edited October 14, 2023 by Hogs and Podz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best player on the planet complaining to the media about how unfair it was for a non-playoff team to try to score on the PP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire his skill as a player but there's Times his mouth runeth over. Buster? You aint got the right to whine when it's your own teams fault (including you,) That stunk the joint up. Guy's just trying to pump up his team. FFS, every team are honing their skills and trying to accumulate points quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
