so you're asking if marky wins game 5 and 6, do you go with demko in game 7?


- RealityChecker


Yeah. That’s. What. I’m. Asking.

Just scrolling through twitter. Kevin Woodley, who is someone I believe knows what he is talking about, dissecting Markstrom’s game last night suggesting that back to back play (even inside the bubble with no travel) has a negative affect on performance. So I’m asking, is it worth considering that Demko might give you a better chance than day two Marky?

I know Green would never, but if Demko isn’t up to the opportunity, than signing Markstrom to a long term deal is more important than ever...

i think the back end of the back to back is game 7... so that would be the game in question.

schedule makers putting game 6 and 7 on consecutive days. could be mayhem! (let's hope it goes that far.)

In that case, it's Markstrom's net. If he sh*ts the bed at least he should cost less to re-sigh. More money for past their prime free agents for the bottom 6.

Great. In. Theory. But. No. Fcuking. Chance. In. Reality.

are you really thinking that there's going to be a discussion about changing the goalie after he brings the team back from 3-1 in the series?

sure, there are intellectual arguments to be made but there isn't a coach or gm in the league that would make that change. it's ludicrous.

The night to rest Marky was last night, that ship has sailed unless game six is a long one.

So you’re saying it’s worth discussing but won’t be discussed, which is what I was asking, is it worth discussing. Thumbsup

I honestly don’t know how Dallas is doing it, on paper they’re not as good as the Avalanche but they’re winning. Vegas will steamroll them imo.

Vegas vs Tampa finals...

- Pacificgem

Hard to say. Thought COL would steamroll DAL but they have adjusted nicely. Gonna be a battle.

Now I’m not suggesting for one second that Demko in last night would have changed the outcome, who knows, But...

If Canucks manage to win the next two (with day off between each game) do you consider Demko for game 7 (back to back) given Makrstrom’s back to back performances these playoffs?

*Markstrom.

Thomas Drance is entertaining. He has no problem dropping the F bombs in his descriptions. He paints a vivid picture .

he's always been good. from the early blog years onwards, he's always been balanced and humorous (to me anyway.)

people recognize talent and that's why there's a reason he was hired by the florida panthers.
