Hey Nucker where are you??

Looks like we have a few more for the #Mottefanclub


- LordHumungous


Fan club? Not so much. But I’d take Motte at $900k or whatever over Beagle at $3m 100 times out of 100.

Thanks Carol.

A few games back, Miller went to the bench shaking his hand, might have something of an issue with it.

I remember that. Maybe a hard whack on the wrist?

2 teams that struggle with talent assessment.

I don't disagree with you, but this statement is why I can't stand having a cap, we assess players way to much on what they are earning.
But I still would dislike Loui, even without a cap.

Pretty sure it was a shot block

Edit: I might be thinking of Beagle.

There is enough hacks going on throughout the game, so wouldn't surprise me if St. Louis has seen the video of him shaking his hand and trying to give a nice little hack whenever possible.

Nice write up in Forbes Carol.

We would have chipped in for a jacket for you, all you had to do was ask.

I can't remember if you've mentioned when you're going back but I can imagine if we win 1 of the next two it will be sooner rather than later.

Motte's a decent 4th line player. He's certainly doesn't need to be played every night but he does bring energy which is all you can really ask for. His Bolland like performance last night was a bonus.

His problem was he was good enough to run the department, but no one is going out scout Benning, nor change what type of player he wants. People underestimate the vision that Benning has for what he wants this team to look like and the players that make it. Linden got blown out, now Brackett. But who cares - 1 guy should "try" to run the show under Aquaman, and hopefully the FA has figured out that he should stay out of the player decisions

I think they both took a shot off the glove at one point.

How many give aways did edler do before he got cut? 3-4 major brain cramps. The last 3 minutes were easy sailing without him....just saying.....

He should stick to 17m a game or his brain stops functioning in subsequent games.

I remember Miller taking his glove off on the bench so a trainer could put an ice pack on his wrist in one of the early games

If there are no fans in the arena right now, why haven’t they tried out many more angles for TV viewing sakes? I’m sure there are some cool ones they could test out now. Just a thought.

Markstrom is the man. What a game. Past 7 mins had me squirming in my seat though!

Go Canucks Go.

I expected a bit more of that as well. I really like the overhead/behind the net angle when 1 team is on the powerplay but they don't use it very often.
