snowman955 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Giraffe still in line up? We would be better off playing short on D. He has more assists for opposition. Welcome Friedman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Because of Myers Modified NTC. We can't even send him to the minors correct? Maybe staple him to the press box for 3-4 games. Send a message to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a big fan of Kuzmenko; just too fluffy and confused for me. Don't even mention Garland or Beauvillier; puh-leez. EP40 is one of the best centers in the league and we saddle him with rejects. Sheesh! Everybody concerned with who's gonna play with Hughes; WTF? Wake up mngt! We are wasting Petey's time. Crosby played with tons of rejects and upped their games throughout his career. No excuses for Pettersson imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheesh! Everybody concerned with who's gonna play with Hughes; WTF? Wake up mngt! We are wasting Petey's time. I like Kuz a lot but I fear he wont excel under a dude like Tocchet. I could see him annoying the coach with his happiness. Then again, I'm not sure EP is best coached by Rick either. EP seems hard enough on himself, he doesn't need a stick....more of a carrot person. Moral of my story....I'm looking at you Rick...pressure is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24K Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Well Tampa lost 3 straights before this game so law of averages say they gonna beat us today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick_theRyper Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 4 hours ago, Elias Pettersson said: Mikheyev is coming back. He is a perfect winger for Petey. And Kuzmenko is a pure goal scorer which Petey needs. That line will be fine. Same with the 4th line. Joshua/Blueger/Lafferty. Once that 4th line comes together, it will also be fine. The problem is the middle of the lineup. Too many soft one way players. Other than Miller and maybe Suter, the rest are one-dimensional players. Not Tocchet type players at all. More trades need to be made. Beauvillier and Garland definitely have to go. $9.1 million between them. That is almost criminal. What a waste of cap space... Yeah I was hoping to see Beau moved first as his contact is expiring, package a pick with him and get it done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HorvatToBaertschi Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Knowing the Canucks, Stamkos comes back from injury and scores a hat trick... Edit: As predicted..... Stamkos should be in the lineup tonight... Canucks luck at its finest Edited October 19, 2023 by HorvatToBaertschi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than Demko, Lafferty was the only bright spot for me last game but if we'd kept that 5th and been lucky we could have had a servicable bottom six player by the end of the decade.

AussieCanuckinUK Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hopefully I'm wrong ...but I didn't have a good feeling about the Philly game either.....so fingers crossed they come out playing like they did against the oilers...

Historically, they are having rough time when going to East swing. We need to figure a way to reverse this. What even more interesting is that the Eastern teams going on West coast swing having an easier time going their way than us. No win-win situation.
