i'd like to see some passes actually get completed.

- dbot

Well the passes are cross ice and are easily picked off or they have to make a 40 foot pass banked off the boards past a forward in the neutral zone.

How do you apply pressure in waves if the forwards and defence are all 100 feet apart on the ice.

Looks like Benn and Hughes have been benched.
- manvanfan


I was heckled in the offseason when i dared to suggest that Hughes might experience the sophomore slump.

I know he's great offensively this season, but looks a step behind on D.

Can't say i'm surprised and I know he'll work his way through it eventually.

This is the version I have:

On Mobile Fidelity it's the best one but can be pricey now that it's dis-continued.

Worth owning.

I went back through and read all the things I said about him after he was drafted. Stecher got blown up every game but at least he could play defence. Hughes is going to have to learn to be tougher in his own end. It will come with age i'm sure. The Canucks got to look at what he is going to be in the line up in the future though and pay him accordingly. If he gets paid like Karlsson, this team is (frank)ed.

What's the over/under for how many minutes until Roussel tries to wrestle someone?

Could see a coaching change to get the defensive woes in order but beyond that not much more...Ingredients are there just need to execute. Maybe they have exhausted as much as they can out of Green. Just doesn't have the experience to take them a bit further.

It'll happen at the end of the year. Ride it out. Aquaman isn't going to pay more money for people this season

It's part/partial to having such an offensive-minded dman on the roster. Good with the bad. I don't think he will be Karlsson bad in the minus dept hoping lol

If they are going to do that, they better start trading Pettersson before he loses all value and wants out because the team sucks so bad.

I don't know...Aquaman is pretty reactionary to public pressure like I said if they go 0-3 vs TO Green could be gone just to shake things up. Benning is safe however lol

If he loses value, he's going to be easier to sign

Is the coaching staff even capable of motivating these players anymore?

Hughes and Hamonic were 3-3 5v5 this season. Hughes and Benn were doing well but after tonight will be 7-7

Hughes and Chatfield in 10 minutes are 0-2
Hughes and Myers 1-6

If the draft is being pushed back to later, absolutely start tanking and selling for picks. Who wouldn't want to pick a 19 year old instead of an 18 year old.

Ace Frehley covered it on his new album Origins Vol 2 pretty good...
