Canucks @ Leafs - Feb. 29th, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050

Wouldn?t mind putting Mitch down below the red for the PP instead; he has no worthwhile shot at this time. At least Willy can rip one off a reversal from Ovi-land. Marner is still showing some uncharacteristic bobbles right now.

Yep something has been off with Mitch the last little while.

 

[Hobbes]

I'd like to see Kerfoot moved back to 3C and shuffle some other guys around. Spezza and Malgin can alternate playing with JT. Our 3rd line was getting caved in all through that period.

 

[azzurri63]

3 shots 2 goals. Andersen looks like he's on his game again.

Don't even go there. This has zero to do with him.

I've been his biggest supporter over the last 3 years. He's not sharp at all. Rebounds have been horrible lately, seems to be down and scrambling more. He's definitely off.
Defence is depleted I understand that but somethings not right with him.

Something might not be right with him but you can't say the last game this or whatever. That's over, he's fine tonight so let's talk about this game.

Haven't seen enough from the Canucks to say he's fine tonight. Hopefully he shuts the door and they get the 2 points. We'll see.
I know Keefe's trying to get his game back but like I said Thursday we don't have enough time to squander some points to see if he gets back in form.
Campbell haven't seen enough of and not sold on him but he was playing well so why not give him a little more action.

 

[Highlander]

better be careful Van. Goat is out there with his snipper horns on

 

[azzurri63]

Nice dive F me.

 

[cujo4ever]

Petterson went down very easily on that one.

 

[Highlander]

6.0 on that dive.  Dermott should haven't touch him there.

 

[azzurri63]

Petterson went down very easily on that one.

Dermott impeded him but Pettersson went down awfully easy. Never understood why the league doesn't just call the embellishment maybe will curb some of the diving.

 

[Hobbes]

Petterson went down very easily on that one.

Still interference though...they've called that pretty consistently even though it's kind of chintzy. Just like that marginal hook they just called on Vancouver.

 

[Highlander]

I was waiting for Gaudette.

 

[ZBBM]

That would have been an epic assist.

 

[Hobbes]

That would have been an epic assist.

Yeah, that would have been a thing of beauty.

 

[Guilt Trip]

What a pass by Freddie. Too bad Willy couldn't finish.

 

[herman]

That would have been an epic assist.

Yeah, that would have been a thing of beauty.

Fred sauce. Pretty good reception too.

 

[ZBBM]

Since getting spanked, Kapanen has played like a man possessed.

 

[azzurri63]

So here we are with a depleted D core and the last few games we seem to be limiting the opposition shots.
Anyone figure what we are doing differently? Played pretty sound in Florida and again tonight so far. I thought we would be in big trouble with 3 regulars out.

 

[Guilt Trip]

Really tight game. Van works hard for sure. Can see why they are where they are in the standings.

 

[wnc096]

Does Marincin think he's bobby orr?  why is standing in front of the Vancouver the net?

Working hard and collapsing to the net.

On a positive note, he wouldn't have to make a pass if he got the puck in that position.
