The Official 2022/2023 Canucks & NHL Thread
 

Miller has a history of yelling at goalies. This is not the first time that Miller Time yelled at a team mate:

The dude yelled at Lundqvist when he played for the Rangers. Then he and Ryan McDonough were traded to Tampa two days after that incident hahah:

Yelling at a team mate is not being an assertive leader. It is a sign of bad character.

So they lost around 10 secs, but they still did that play you mentioned where the 6th man had to be on ice as they brought the puck up. Which didn't matter because they still lost the puck battle and coughed up a empty net goal.

no one's arguing the results, and it's still a gamble anytime you pull the goalie. the point was just that after Delia went to the bench with the 6th man jumping up to the blue line as the puck was brought up, seems like that's the play they planned (6th guy needs to be ahead of the puck, not behind). the fact Boeser was also pointing at the bench seems like he thought they were going to execute some sort of plan as well.

not saying that miller doesn't have a shitty attitude, but in this situation, i think everyone was at fault.

lol, then there's this one.

In a vacuum it’s not that bad. Everyone gets frustrated with teammates/colleagues from time to time, and sometimes it manifests itself in an ugly way. But when there’s a history of this type of behaviour the person either corrects it or you get rid of them.

Tampa bay got rid of him, and I am sure they dont regret it. They won two cups after. Lol

^ so what you are saying is that if Canucks can get rid of him, we can look forward to back to back Stanley Cups?

I'd be happy with a riot.

That Bedard goal was amazing. Canada wins in OT over Slovakia. Go, Canada, GO!!!!

He now hold record for most points in IIHF history.

Record setting goal


The game winning OT goal

Can we fucking tank for him already? I don't care if the odds are only 16% or whatever, and if we have to ship out everyone except EP and QH to even have a chance.

I'd love to watch him play for us even if we were bottom feeders for the next 10 years :lol

Being from North Van, you know he's going to give it his all for the team. If, by any chance, he becomes a Canuck, I'd be back as the hard core Canuck fan that I used to be.

1 in a million chance, though...............

Owner and management will find a way to fuck things up.

Cut to 2:50 for the OT goal....

Dekes out all three Slovaks, then the goalie. Took charge and got 'er done. Bedard is pretty short, but he's been a giant in this tournament.


The Slovak team played way above their pay grade, lol. Never beat Canada in the history of the tournament, but they came ever so close to changing that. Hats off to their team.


Next up, the amuricans

Maybe we'll win the cup in 2033 when he turns 27 and signs with us.

:badpokerface:

Prob not back to back Stanley cups lol. But at least you don't have an entitled dude running around thinking hes too good to backcheck or put in any effort in his defensive game. Bieksa call him out after the game against the flames.

Wow ... that's a sign, not even one post about the game last night. I think they have really lost the fanbase ... at least here on RS but ...

I think majority of us have mentally checked out. We don't even post when they win anymore..

Went to the game last night, first one in a while and the atmosphere was just checked out

Kids excited but everyone else sees the writing on the wall. Pretty sad

For some reason, they are particularly bad at home. So now fans will just go when an exciting visiting team comes.

Whichever team drafts Bedard will win the cup before the Canucks ever will.

watching the canucks is very depressing..so i stopped completely. they need to blow up the team and start from scratch. The fan base will get super excited if management actually starts to make some trades and get some draft picks.

NGL... I didn't even know they played yesterday...

This month of games against tough opponents like Colorado, Pittsburgh, and Tampa may be the start of a fast downward spiral for the team.

Leaky defence. More turnovers than a bakery. -looks like to me that the team's weak mental state is going to take an even bigger beating.

-No pushback in games when the team is trailing in a game.

An inept defensive "system" under assistant coach Mike Yeo along with inept defencemen such as Meyers and OEL.

It looks like either this team has quit on each other when the team is trailing in games or just waiting to see what Allvin and the rest of the management team are going to do to stop the bleeding with this team.

The Islanders are a well coached team that plays with a good defensive system. Boudreau kept telling the team to block shots. He told reporters that he writes down the phrase "shot blocking" on a whiteboard in the locker room.

A big stat from last night's game: Islanders: 18 blocked shots. Canucks: 3 blocked shots. :facepalm:

I was there too! Lots of empty seats... the only thing that made it exciting for me is that I was sitting with a lot of Australians who were watching their first ever hockey game so they were pretty pumped and asking me all the rules etc. fun group

I was cheering for Matt Barzal. He did well last night!
