Much more objective & get down to the nuts n bolts of it all.
Botch is a narcissistic hack sensationalist.
Kuzma hot n cold beat writer.

- Nighthawk

I think I like them more because they use more then just their own opinion. A few stats to support their ideas. They also don't just state the saddest crap around.

Ok guys, we are down to the brass tax.... what are your predictions for tonight...

For the Canucks to win, Markstrom will need to be lights out.... he won't . Final score 6 - 2 with another hatty for McDavid.... maybe even a first period hatty.

Wow, Twitter is freaking out about Boeser sitting tonight.

It makes complete sense to me. He had a blank stat line in the preseason game against Edmonton last week - with 2:49 of power-play time. And he faded in general during the later stages of preseason.

With his skating being the weakest part of his game, I don't think Edmonton is a good matchup for him. Jake's way better suited to play against the Oilers.

Brock will get his chance soon enough.

- Carol Schram


its hilarious, Has Brock played more than 40 games in a year ever in his life? Fans need to be patient with him, and I like that TG is forcing him to earn his ice time (much like Horvat had to do with Willie).

It's quite a new bunch that are playing together it will take some time. Vs the Marlies, which most are back from last year.

I'm thinking the Canucks will be better than expected, it goes to overtime. Mcjesus will get a Beauty.

On a side note, for those like me who make bets, the Canucks are 100:1 to make the playoffs, and I just have a hard time believing the Flames/LA/Arizona are that much better than the Canucks on paper.

With Dahlin (a guy I really like) as the potential 1oa, I would put money on th Canucks messing that up and making the playoffs this year. Call me crazy.

Crazy but Buffalo and the NYI are the only two teams I haven't watched at least of a period of yet. I have serious ADD now thanks to NHL center ice. THERE'S JUST SO MANY GAMES TO CHOOSE FROM!

Dunno if its a great idea to have a young prospect sitting in the press box or on the bench like Yamamoto. Cant learn a whole lot watching games and practicing, should be playing as much hockey as they can at that age.

We tried it 2 years ago with McCann and Virtanen.

Amazing results.

Too bad Dahlen is going back to Sweden, can't say I'm thrilled with that. I don't understand this whole developing kids in the press box thing and will be curious to see how it works out 3rd time around.

Glad Virtanen is playing. I like that line.

It's not about development. It's about him nursing back to health and shaking Mono.
