grumpyone Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I predict that McDoofus doesn't spend more than 30 seconds in his own end ALL night. He'll be cherry picking everywhere. the best way for us to start the game would be to score on the very first shot. I predict 5-4 Canucks in O T with JT getting the winner. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heretic Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I'll say 4-2 Canucks (like I did last game) for like a broken clock being right twice a day, the Canucks will win some games this season 4-2! Go Canucks GO! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Expect we will se McD come out flying and with more than his usual late cheap shot antics. Also expect some vicious uncalled stick work from Crysaital. They are mad and know the refs give them the benefit of the doubt. Keep our cool and keep hitting. Need lots of discipline, the refs will want to gift this one to the Oilers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we lose, I hope we keep that passion, intensity and focus we had in Game 1. This.... No guarentees, but keep the intencity up and they will be fine. Even if we lose narrowly, they'll walk away from this double header 10 feet tall... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckfanforlife82 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) I am sort of worried the refs will favour the crowd and oilers and just dish out penalties. Having McDavid and Draisaitl it just seems that refs going looking to make them and the crowd happy especially at home. How do refs stay even keeled and fair in a rowdy atmosphere? They are human. Oilers don't need help though. Anyways early powerplays are my concern tonight. Almost have to play a perfect game to start and stay out of the box to help their chances to win.

SnakeDoctor Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Another win? Let’s see. I’m sure the oilers are looking for some retribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bure10Kuzmenko96 Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 It's been said before by the countless posters that Edmonton will come out flying tonight. If we can stay out of the box and lead 1-0 after the first we have a really good chance. Let's see what happens tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 Sounds like Ekholm is back which is the biggest game changer so we're going to have to find a way to beat him and get our stars on the ice when he's not there. Bouchard and Nurse were all over the place last game. Their positioning and sticks are so bad, but Ekholm logs a good 22ish minutes against top lines and shuts them down. It'll be interesting to see who they try and play Ekholm against - Petey or Miller's line. Obviously right now Petey and Kuz aren't quite firing on all cylinders 5 on 5 but Miller, Brock and PDG are on fire and far better at even strength. Think we might end up with Ekholm vs Miller and Nurse vs Petey which is a solid match up and really good test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hogs and Podz Posted October 14, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) The odds are stacked against the nucks on a number of fronts... If we win, it will be because demmer plays all world. Otherwise, as long as we keep it a close game, and continue to play with structure, puck support, strong along the walls, and clog up the middle of the ice... I'll be happy. Unfortunately, I can't watch games right now as I'm living in Nicaragua... Obviously, very difficult to find a place to watch a canucks game. So now more than ever, I'll be checking in here to find out how it's going. Though I'm really happy with my move... One if the sacrifices was not having the same access to my favorite sports team. Last couple years, I haven't watched many games because I didn't like the management or the product they were putting on the ice. Now, with the changes in both management and personal, this looks like a team that will play with some qualities I admire and can get behind win or lose. Hopefully once I get my house completed and move in, I'll be able to get a steam service and catch the last quarter of the regular season and playoffs!!!

IBatch Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) Big test tonight. Expect Oilers to try bullying us. Tochett i'm sure will have the guys ready for it, and that's how we go up 2-0 against in the season series (don't take the bait but play in their faces). Two games in and it seems to matter more already. Awesome GCG! Edited October 14, 2023 by IBatch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I've listened to a few reactions after the game. I'm a little annoyed hearing that the loss is more about oils not playing their game rather than us being able to hold their top players off the score sheet. Getting 8 goals is a reflection of oils sloppy defense which will be different tonight with Ekholm back, but there's not enough said about canucks only allowing one goal because we played solid defense for 60 mins. Don't think many will predict us to win the second game which is fair. I predict Demko keeping is close in the first, maybe let in 1 on pp and we strike back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 I don't care if it's game 1, 2, 10, 69....Beating the Oilers and beating them badly feels so incredibly satisfying. I almost need a Heffy rant about McDavid, Draisaitl and the Oilers as a pre-game speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
