Easy big fella, pull back those reigns a bit. I was pleasantly surprised but the Canucks were outshot 35-26, they were outhit 26-16 and they got two fortunate goals. The bounce on Sutter's goal and a very weak shortside goal for Horvat.

Just trying to keep it real

This is based on the games played this year not just last night.No one is planning parades or jumping for joy or Mary. We are enjoying the results of one game.


Don't you have a rant to prepare?

I always liked Sutter also. I thought WD used him incorrectly also.

With EG he was brutal last year . This year so far much better

Only one game, but EG looked good.

Horrible start with that first goal against but the game got better. Who's up next?

He's a good role/bit player, he just makes a bit too much money.

I have really liked his game so far this year. I think he is moving players from in front and making hits on other teams tough guys. I wish he had someone to have his back but very impressed so far with him.
- VANTEL


It’s perfect, he keeps doing those things and he becomes a 1st + at the TDL.

It was really nice to see the Sedins pulled back into reality. They've been spoon-fed minutes the past few years that they didn't necessarily deserve. Although there wasn't really anyone knocking at the door until last year, I'll give em that.

I don't expect much from this group but I will enjoy the victories , but my long term goal is still a top 5 pick.

The season goes fast, regardless of how EG plays JB needs to work the phones and keep a good handle on how it's going to play out with him. #AssetManagement

That was hard for me to swallow the last three years. WD didn't even try anything new. Always went back to the same game plan no matter how many times it failed

They need to trade him at the deadline or sooner! He's gonna want too much money for what he brings and they need another top pick this year.

If and when the word gets out he has no intentions of re-signing here, if it hasn't already, we're done.

Small sample size but

Line matching > rolling 4 lines

Limit sedins plus megna > not limiting sedins plus megna

I am not sure he wouldn't sign here. I still believe in moving him but what goes on behind closed doors with him and Jim is anyone's guess.

I’m not ready to call green better than Willy after just one meaningful game.
