Dropping it in because I don't think I have ever seen stats list having top three as Canucks. Boeser tied for 1st in goals Hronek tied franchise longest point streak as dman 11 games Demko is currently leading the league in GSAA with 9.53 at all strengths and has the highest HDSV% .929 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would be hearing how the Leafs are the 80s Oilers and a dynasty in the making. I still remember 2 games into the season when Matthews had 2 hattricks and they were saying he will likely be the first 70 goal scorer since Mogilny and Selanne Edited November 16, 2023 by HKSR 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see him coughing. It would explain why he looks a little slower, and not shooting the puck like he normally does. You serious? Did everyone already forget the two massive saves in the first? Also his recovery after the puck looped around the boards and the NYI got off a quick shot. He also stopped i think 6 shots in the final 4 minutes to save this game for us. Maybe because it happens so regularly we don't realize how highlight reel Demko has been playing every game. Demko has been playing lights out. Nothing wrong with him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh jeez. yes that makes more sense now that I reread the thread I randomly jumped in on! Disregard. (but also agree something going on with Petey). I got jumped on in the Petey contract thread for suggesting perhaps there's some mental struggles happening and not physical. To me watching him play it doesnt look like a physical injury. Even watching him in the background when Boes scores, lately he is exhibiting the least emotion when we score. He barely squeaks out a smile. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelPiLeo Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 On that long 5 on 3 PP, at first I thought Mik should be a more make sense choice to replace Kuz but a very smart decision by Tocchet to put Hronek in and it worked. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Long Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 interesting to look at the full stats: https://www.naturalstattrick.com/game.php?season=20232024&game=20241 On paper we were dominant after the 1st, in real time watching it things seems a little less certain. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are giving up your youth and best looks for 15 years only to fix it at retirement when you are a beat up horse basically that draws no interest. Again I stand by my thoughts you will have a hard time pulling women with a bad smile. Open tik tok and see how much women care about hygiene in a man, his height and nice smiles with nice teeth is a MUST to have a chance with a beautiful woman. So...... they care about hygiene, but not exercise. Dude, you make little to no sense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been a consistent and huge theme to almost every game. We take the slot, they can have the perimeter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cusm Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I like the fact that we've clearly been the dominant team in the two OTs we've played so far. And if the tripping against Petey had been penalized, I think we would have won both of them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was stretches at times that the Islanders were pushing. But Snatcher got better and better as the game wore on. Even defensively the team was working better more as the game progressed. What's funny is the players themselves at the 1st intermission knew they had to get going. Tocc didn't have to yell at them he just told them a couple of things to get better. When the players are responsible for their play, you know you have got good communication and teamwork going. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stats page doesn't show the energy the ISL's were bringing. Just looking at the page you'd think it was a cake walk, but it was a scrappy win. Yep the accountability is there on the bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This trait isn’t new to the Canucks. At least it’s not happening as often as it used to. It wasn't too long ago we were considered as the Cardiac Canucks, when they seem down and out they come back to life and take over the game which they did last night. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he more than makes up for it by drawing penalties, and generally getting into the oppositions heads. If he could just improve his accuracy, he'd be incredible. He hits everything that moves too. And isn't afraid to dig after the puck. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
