That is what I thought too. However we do have 3 games in hand on Vegas so maybe that factors in. Is there any official announcement?

I saw something brief on Facebook from the NHL. Looks like Gallant, Cassidy, Reirden and Berube

The Score
- CanuckDon


The Score? Advertisement revenue?

I liked the channel but the only things I thought The Score produced of value was Elliot Friedman and Tim Micallef.

I went on to the score expecting to see something Canucks related from last night. Nothing.

They are still working on a name for that planet they found rotating around Toronto.

I guess you can’t blame them. Just chasing the money. TO (southern Ontario) is really the only true sporting market in Canada and it’s huge.

Yes GTO is something like 8-12M people. Then there's the cities that will support them, london-hamilton-etc that are true hockey towns with fans attending leafs games. Add that's it's an original 6 team and will have revenue from Montreal, Boston, Detroit, Chicago and NYC from those rivalries over the century. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Not 8-12. That would be L.A. or other big American market. GTA is 6M, TO is around 2.5M. Still the largest in Canada by far. Plus Ontario has a huge economy that can support multiple pro sport franchises.

Under the All-Star selection process, the head coach of the team with the highest points percentage (points earned divided by total possible points) in each of the four divisions through the halfway point of the regular season - will guide the respective All-Star rosters.

Vegas is currently at .59 while Canucks are at .585 for pts percentage.

The skills competition is mildly entertaining, I won't go out of my way to watch it though.

I don’t watch any of them. NFL has to be the most ridiculous of them all.

No, no, no. One game at a time. It's all about the process. Play the right way.

You're supposed to be a veteran. C'mon man.

Have to say I've been impressed with his game over the past while. Not flashy or worrying about goals just getting into the play, skating when needed and winning puck battles. Maybe he's all in? Finally....
- LordHumungous


Remember when you guys made up that poop about Miller berating Boeser on the bench?

Well I can say it might have been true, last night I saw Green and Miller going at it, good on Miller for giving Green the gears, the guy is an alpha big time, my new idol, well next to Beagle of course.

boeser with a over a ppg the last 11 games needs to "find his game"
- neem55


Yes he did, he was lazy, uncommitted, and refused to back check.

Phil Esposito used to stand on the red line and wait for the puck, great scorer poopty at defense, and so was Boeser.

More to a complete game than just scoring.

well said. Boeser will always have his shot, and playing with Miller and Petey, you are going to get points (not taking anything away from his offense either with this statement), but I think people in here were wanting crisper passes, smarter plays in the neutral/defensive zones. I think in the past 5 games, he has been tremendously better than when the comments were made in here.

lol it wasn't made up you could tell Miller was pissed with Boesers work ethic from his body language out there. I didn't see Miller and Green jabbering but whatever helps this club win all good. Miller will probably be a killer coach someday lol

Why? It’s fun to point out character flaws. Especially when those people have so many flaws to point out.

They call what you are doing "projecting".

He's great, just what they needed. He'll keep the country club culture in check if it still exists.

They?

I think you meant to say “I call what you are doing projecting”.

People use “they” when afraid to have a firm position about an issue. Don’t be afraid. This is a safe place.
