Great to see Nilsson back, Markstrom needs a rest. Not encouraging news on Sven, hopefully he can return to the ice one day.

Sharks 🦈 are going to feast on the Canucks tonight 6-1 prediction, what’s yours?

Prediction time.
Nilsson with the shutout.
Rousell with the Gordy Howe Hatty.
Canucks win 2-0.

Thanks Carol!

Sticking with 8-4 Sharks!

Marky yells at Nilly from the bench for smiling.

Pettersson hatty.

Let the slide continue!

Thanks Carol

Seems like the making for a slump buster. Either the SJ PP breaks out in a big way (Canucks are the most penalized team in the NHL), or the young guns get back on track.

I'm going with the former, 5-1 Sharks, 4 PP tallies.

I am seeing online that the Canucks have told the media today that goaltenders, moving forward, will be off-limit to questions/media on game days only. Not really sure what the reasoning, or what that has to do with anything. Maybe Marky is a bit too outspoken and the team wants a handle on it? (spitballing)

Thanks Carol

We seem to play well vs LA from time/time so the slump buster should be tomorrow.

Should be another shelling tonight.

Thanks Carol!

6-1 Sharks

Goldobin with the goal

Roussel on the 1st line with Bo, now that's a reason to pull out the pom poms.

lol Canucks press mngt probably want Markstrom to close his hole (lol) and stop calling out the team in the media on game days.

If I was the Nucks players I would just quote Torts:

'make a f**cking save'. '4 goals every 16 shots getting a little tired of the 25% rule'

I don't like this match up but I think we turn it around in a close one. 3-2 Canucks. Bo, Pettersson and Goldy for the boys in blue

Maybe they are going to go with the hot goalie or something.

the club is expecting a controversy. maybe we will see one moved.

as long as Marky doesn't uttter "choked", he should be okay. and I was fine with Naslund calling it like it was, when he said it.

Thanks Carol for the start time.

I mean, I find the timing of it curious, as they release this policy the day or 2 days after Marky shows a bit of snarl in his post game interview re: smiling. Either way, I don't think the Canucks are the only team to do this, I know Hellybuck was not doing game-day interviews last year, and I think Holtby was doing the same throughout the playoffs.

Damn that Sven concussion seems severe. Those are the types that change the way a player plays. I remember Willie Mitchell’s concussion when he was out for the season and couldn’t even workout.
