I was soooo impressed with Brock. If you get the chance, take a look at that sequence of plays, around 20 seconds left in period 2. Brock the Bruiser ! Cheers. I saw that too and was pretty happy to see his response. Always nice when it becomes a by committee mentality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pure961089 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) It was a couple of games ago I noticed. And at first I was like "Oh, No..Myers Has the puck". But then I noticed Petey like 3 feet away from him and I let out a sigh of relief. Then I noticed it over and over the same thing. Whenever Myers has the puck in the defensive zone Pettersson is no more than 5 feet from him. It makes it so much easier for Myers.

Although Atlanta, (6) and Houston, (7) don't have an NHL team. (obviously Atlanta tried twice, but...) Regardless, it's been a joke of a franchise. Though, they are playing better this year. Let's see if the snowbirds jump on the bandwagon. Yeah it's been tough. That's a pretty big tv market for a shit team so financially it's probably no worse than if Quebec, Houston, or Atlanta had a team. I don't know if any other real ownership groups out there have been ready to step in or they probably would have went that route. Now that their recent rink endeavor got voted down it remains to be seen what will happen there. Maybe they finally move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's time to give DeSmith a start, but maybe not vs Edm if we look at the schedule this coming week. We have 4 games with a back to back next weekend. Maybe start Demko against Edm and Laffs, then let DeSmith face Sens and Habs? Eek then another 3 games in 4 nights the following week. Hopefully our team can stay fresh somehow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maniwaki Canuck Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 So on the subject of Demko, did I notice during a distracted moment in last night's broadcast that he has a new mask for the flying skate uniforms with Gino on the back plate? If so, the man has gone up even higher in my estimation. If he gets what Gino means to this fanbase, then he's a true Canuck himself. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the next back to back he'll take a break 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's a good idea. However, in coach Tocc I trust. I think you have to give Demko the start in Edmonton against a div rival after a great shutout performance. Then either start him on the road or give DeSmith the Ottawa game. Demko has to start on Saturday Night and Desmith gets the Montreal game. 13 minutes ago, Wing said: I think it's time to give DeSmith a start, but maybe not vs Edm if we look at the schedule this coming week.

Good call but I think they might want to start Demko on the road as compared to giving DeSmith more road starts than Demko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People say that Demko is a hockey nerd but if he cares enough to dig into the team's history and highlight a guy like Gino that's a level of identification with the team you don't often see. Love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
