Carol Schram: Elias Pettersson scores 2 beauties as Vancouver Canucks end Wild win-streak In his second game back in action after suffering an early-season concussion, Elias Pettersson showed he's no worse for wear in a two-goal performance that fuelled a 5-2 win for the Vancouver Canucks over the Minnesota Wild.

Ep40 is on another level which we haven't seen in these neck of the woods in over 20 years. Kid is legit and will be fighting for a scoring title as early as next year.

I like Granlund's game. Good young piece from Calgary.

Thanks Carol

I'm glad you're pulling for me vs codes...

Thanks Carol.

Are we seeing another Bure moment with EP40?

I'm thinkin'

Thanks Carol

don't count your chickens pressy. He has to throw on the canuck uniform and play a game before you can gloat. Sadly, I think he will suit up regardless

Playoff roster? I think so😘😘

The Gaunce Nuance returns.

Just when our 4th line was gaining some traction. And then along comes Gaunce

Agreed


solid player, does the little things right, good in the locker room, versatile player, hard worker

Credit where credit's due, the team played very well last night and the defense core were rock solid. Green is still a smug asshat but he had them ready to play last night. Very entertaining!

But his yelling works.

So what would the lineup look like tomorrow?

Now watch the guy score 20 so we can trade Sutter at TDL...

Green is the front runner for the Jack Adams. #narratives

Carol,
Nice recap of the game, can you speculate what is the issue that Green has with Virtanen?

Last night was one of his better proformances and yet he gets 10:42 TOI, Eriksson I can understand the low ice time. But Virtanen is always low man, even when he plays well.

I know i'm not Carol, but my guess would be that he doesn't trust JV defensively.

Poll question
What is more likely to occur?

Gaunce scores 20
or
Canucks make playoffs


i'd probably go with Gaunce, who in a parallel universe moves his way up to a line with EP40 due to injuries and goes on a tear.

Green is the front runner for the Jack Adams. #narratives

Only because of Pettersson.

Granlund, Virtanen and Hutton also scored. We won because of our PK, Markstrom and EP

lol the #narratives comment was a jab for Booner, as he and I have an ongoing narratives thing going on. I never discredited Green's ability to get more from the team than what everyone expected, or that he is a awful coach. I think he has done really well considering all of the injury hurdles, or lack of talent hurdle lol. I have my criticisms like everyone else, but I can't knock him for getting more out of this team than what we all pegged. Having said all that, I just think its funny that anyone (media especially) make projections for any awards after 11 or 12 games. We can give credit where credit is due without giving them the moon and everything in between with such a small sample size.

I partly mentioned it because it was Burke...it was probably as a back handed canucks compliment meant to jab the current roster more than anything
