what a great hockey game especially the 3rd, Neilson played fantastic and we won this game because of him.

As much as JB and TL can criticize MG off ice policies, performance plan and other elements (sleep doctor, nutrition, etc) the product spoke for itself on the ice.

Nilsson probably knows he needs to show up on gamedays to win that no1 job. Both him and Marky are in the same position where they need to show they have what it takes to be a true #1

Someone needs to take Mathesons head off now

Hope that Petersson is alright. His head hit the ice after Matheson’s hit.

Guddy needs to re arrange Matheson’s face!

Pay big money for "toughness," literally zero response when future of the franchise is taken out.

The hit I'm fine with, it's how Matheson held him up and then slammed him onto the ice

What a shot by Petey. Unfortunately, we have terrible luck with our prospects and injuries...

Good job NHL cuz we all pay to watch Matheson play every night not Pettersson right? No problem let the guy slam the kids head into the ice.

I'm soo pissed at the rest of that team right now!!:mad: Where the f*** was the response!?

Laughing stock of the NHL. All-star rookie gets absolutely belted and no fucking response? Clean hit, dirty hit, it doesn't matter, you need a response. Are you actually more concerned about winning a single fucking hockey game? Oh shit guys we might actually win this one, lets not take any "stupid penalties". Good job idiots, nobody respects you, and it will happen again. Where's the camaraderie? That locker room should be ashamed of themselves, coaches included.

Hamonic dropped them with Guddy and got his ass kicked and injured. I respect him for that, and as a teammate those are the kind of players i want in my locker room.

Coach and GM "We wanna be a hard team to play against." Hows that working out fellas? When your star players get injured, and you sit on your thumbs? Gonna be a hell of alot more difficult without Pettersson scoring you goals

100%

Who the fuck cares about 2 pts in a mean nothing season. Way to stick up for the kid, who has potential to be your best player ever. Where was Guddy, Roussel, Virtanen? The whole team from the coach to all the leaders on the team should be ashamed.

^to be fair they all just follow orders, Travis Green sets the tone and that tone is to not have a 5 minute fighting major

I agree, that’s why it’s a failure of the whole team. If I was Aquaman, I would be livid if my golden goose was taken down like that.

Maybe for once, this would be a good time for Aquaman to micromanage and ask Green wtf was that about?

Pettersson's the only reason I'm even following the Canucks this season...

I went back to watch the recording of the game, if I was Horvat or any sort of team captain, I just watched Matheson get dangled like that after I put the puck in the net, I'm going straight over to him and dropping the gloves... wheres the fuckin leadership

Smfh the one thing Guddy was brought in to do:


Guddy comment last season in a Boeser hit:


I'm sick of seeing him on the ice. Completely useless on all counts.

Matheson to have a hearing on the Petterson hit. Probably a stern warning only

He's all talk. It was also nice of him to throw some of his teammates under the bus

There was talk that Guddy was on the ice at the time Petterson was hit?


Nonetheless he sounds more and more selfish. Being a leader means stepping up and leading and if he was a locker room leader, he should've stepped up and "pushed back" on Matheson

I’m not that upset that he’s out, I’m upset that he’s 5 games into his NHL career and has a fucking concussion already..

Concussions now Just seem like this lingering problem once you’ve had your first and our star player has suffered one this quickly? Ffs..
