I miss JTM as much as the next guy but a player should be able to miss 4 games without a team folding.
- VANTEL

So true.

Yes for sure that's the main reason. But JTM is also a catalyst for them and the team in how his influence gets them going. You are totally underestimating what JTM has meant to this group.

The team should be better than one player.

So true.

Demko or Holtby next game?

Canucks disagree by private jetting him out for 1 game. They did well in the first game when special teams were not needed. But the last 2 were the difference and his influence can change that.

Demko or Holtby next game?

I'd still rotate. So, Demko.

You are funnier than that Nuckup fella.

Is there a reason why the Canucks thread gets all the funny guys?

I like that plan when you want to set up a strong tandem.

Can you answer now who has the better book advantage Marky or Canuck shooters?

Each day, the NHL will publicly release the list of players that are unavailable to their respective teams due to being in COVID-19 protocol. Today’s list is as follows:

Tampa Bay – Curtis McElhinney
Vancouver – Jordie Benn
Winnipeg – Anton Forsberg; Tucker Poolman

Power through

Wow gutsy call by KC.

You are the one who dubbed Bailey "big and fast".

The top 6 hasn't scored in two games. You're worried about being a one line team? Team got shut out last game and you are worried about having one line that even scores.
- manvanfan

I questioned that Bailey was big and fast, not dubbed him

The one line team that will definitely score? Or just be shut down by being easier to be constantly be matched up against on the road?

What a football game, Cleveland’s got a good team but KC is phenomenal.

Maybe the AHL shouldn't play this season.

The same reason you never post in the Flyers thread.

Regarding the Canucks, just relax, every NHL game has been scrambly, there’s been no pre-season, and, they were always destined to be a bubble team.....relax! The kids are young, growing and getting better. Our time will come, but it’s not right now.

I'd have answered shooters up until last night. Perimeter shots aren't going to beat a lot of guys though. There's also an advantage that Marky has knowing their moves and tendencies. I'm sure at some point the balance will shift back and forth as guys get hot and cold.

That isn’t good enough for some, it has to be now.

That one play where Cleveland fumbled it through the end zone cost them. That was a 10 point swing! Good on them for hanging in with KC, looking forward to the shootout with Buffalo

I was looking at TBs cap next year they are screwed may be the worst in Cap history. They have 16 players signed next year and already over the cap by 3.5 mil. They have to move players . They need to move Point or Stamkos or Kucherov or some high contract or a combination of smaller players like Cirelli.

As attractive as a guy like Brayden Point looks in two years his contract expires and his qualifying offer needs to be close to 10 million.

I didn't realize they've already played 3 games.

Bills vs Chiefs is gonna be a great game!

I don’t read back and some people are freaking out. This is still a work in progress, as Booner says....patience.
