The Canucks forecheck?
- Marwood

non-existent.

A team that gives up the most shots in the league does not forecheck.

Dump and allow the other team to make quick break outs is probably more accurate for Canucks style of play.

My god you guys, this is crazy talk. EP is an important part of any roster. He doesn’t have to be the cornerstone but his skill set is so valuable to a well balanced roster. The thought of letting him go because of a $7M contract is nuts. Even at that cost he’s affordable if our GM stops giving money away to useless veteran dead weight.

I was thinking if he got an offer sheet in excess of 9 million, not that any team has the cap space to do it.

So? 🤷‍♂️ I said Zack isn’t ready

He is at practice. He brings a physicality to the team that is not allowed by Green.

One of the most frustrating things to watch with this system. Barely ahead of watching the other team be given the blue line to carry the puck in, and just ahead of turning back instead of breaking out to cycle the puck in their own end before losing it/giving up a scoring chance.

Nice good number Yorky lol was that calculator or paper? Your superior math skills on display again hey just out of curiosity with an average of 10 reg season games left for most teams could you provide a detailed percentage list on where all 31 teams will finish? Asking for a friend lol

Overrated as what?

He’s a sniper. That’s what he is. A premium is paid on goal scorers because that’s how you win games. The more snipers you have on your roster the better chance you have of winning.

You just need a GM who can construct a roster that utilizes snipers effectively and a coach who can develop a system that takes advantage of that type of skill set.

We have 1/3 of that potent mix.

- bloatedmosquito

lol wow...other than the one-off goofy injury season for EP this year his comparable numbers rival that of Matthews based off his first two seasons

Guess that makes Matthews over-rated too lol.

Team is poorly constructed with a real lack of identity.

Green says he's not revealing the forwards for tonight.

lol Green was praised for his coaching Prowess in the PO's last year...

Maybe he's a PO coach and not so much a reg.season guy?

Ah, Professor! Right on cue. Have a tough day studying at the Donald Trump Center for People Who Can't Do Math Good and Want to Learn How to do Other Stuff Good Too?

You know what's funny though, is that either by hand or calculator, I can actually do the math properly. You seem to be pretty proud of your inability to do long division. "I did it on a piece of paper" maybe don't use a crayon next time?

If you want to do some learning, what you're calculating is the crude mortality rate, which is just the percent of the population that's died so far. It has nothing to do with how likely one is to die from a disease.

Player's that have grown their games under him have been older guys like Miller, Pearson. That's really it.

Young talented prospect tend to come in and be what they are. Not many players that have come in and been better than they were on the last clubs or many young players that have grown up through the ranks and improved once they have hit the NHL.

As a spectator I have to say you really do a good job of being very thorough and comprehensive with your responses/troll posts, while seemingly never getting tilted, very impressive.

Chucky with Millsey and Petey would be the Canucks version of Marchand, Bergeron Pasternak!
