Maybe last years schedule would have been better with more Divisional games. We seem to be ok beating them! :)

Was it me or did Sanford have some rebound control problems wow.

^ yeah sure did.

One thing everyone should know about Pyatt is he's moving much faster than he seems to be. He has a different stride than just about anyone I've ever seen. There's a reason Demitra wants to play with him, as did the Sedins last year. He may not be a point a gamer but he's a solid player IMO.

I think Demita should be on the team a little bit longer and actually do more of what he was brought here to do (score and create chances) before he starts telling Vigneault who to play with him and assessing our talent for us.

suprasian 10-18-2008 07:50 AM

we score on the open net and if demitra doesnt hit the post its a new game. game of inches last night but overall i didnt think we played that bad. miller looked shaky last night.

I love how a new incoming player requesting to play with another suddenly becomes "telling the coach who to play with him and assessing our talent for us". The leaps of logic around here are monumental at times. Seriously, some of you people should be competing in Olympic long-jumping. Bloody brilliant.

What I saw of it, we didn't play badly... Buffalo was just that good. There's a reason they're 4-0, perfect on the PK, and have only allowed 5 goals in those games.

judging by their GAA, we're lucky we got two.

Anyone who has actually played hockey can tell you pyatt is by far the worst skater on the team.

He does not use his strides effectively and he cannot skate well enough to make up for brick hands

the guy doesnt even hit for fuck sakes

I love how morons on Revscene can't tell when someone is being BLATANTLY facetious. I don't dispute I was being overly dramatic with my words, but my point was you shouldn't talk until you contribute.

Compare this with, say, Steve Bernier coming and saying he's just happy to be a Canuck even though everyone is telling him he's pencilled in next to the Sedins.

It's all about humility and ego

Why do you hate the world so much Soundy? Was it mean to you?

I was off my couch standing and swearing at my TV when we were down 1-0, he comes out of the penalty box, skates like he's in cement in on a 2-on-1 with D.Sedin, defenceman lays down and instead of going in on Miller or trying at *least* a saucer pass to Sedin he takes a weak wrist shot that hits the jersey of the defenceman (who, keep in mind, is LAYING ON THE ICE) and goes into the corner, then just skates to the bench! Seriously WTF?

I wasn't saying he was the greatest skater. I was merely pointing out the fact that he's moving a lot faster than he seems to be.

There's a lot of things we don't see as fans, and who are we to judge if year after year our top performers want to play with Pyatt?

He's a big body that draws the D away from players who are better at putting the puck in the net.

Hahah Chris you crack me up man! Reminds me of the Bertuzzi of old just floated around the ice!

i've been to 25 games in the last 2 seasons sitting in row 15, I can tell you he is no pavel.

BTW, Wellwood cleared the down waivers today and has been re-asigned to the moose

punkwax 10-18-2008 02:29 PM

I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to compare Pyatt to Pavel.

Or should I say didn't?

Tim Budong 10-18-2008 03:30 PM

blast from teh past...
watched the 94run of the canucks
i decided to wiki Pavel Bure

he sued some russian tabloid for sayin he broke up with anna kornikova cuz she has two vaginas..
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

mako 10-18-2008 04:56 PM

im surprised no one claimed Wellwood

we got a pretty good team down there in Manitoba now :D

Hondaracer 10-18-2008 06:40 PM

^ not really that suprising because any team that would have any interest in him would probably be watching his performance closely, and seeing how he was floating and having so many questions regarding his conditioning I bet alot of teams would rather stay away.

Not to mention odds are he will most likely be one of the first call-ups from the farm so any team interested could grab him for dirt cheap on the way back up

Harvey Specter 10-18-2008 06:54 PM

Bert scored his 5th goal of the season, the big man is on fire.

rb 10-18-2008 07:53 PM

well, its about damn time haha... Gotta still feel for the Panthers though.

Hondaracer 10-18-2008 08:08 PM

LOL

Kostystin gets fucking hammered by Saur, then a few different canadians try to get revenge and Saur fucks up both of them lol

stuff99 10-18-2008 09:02 PM
