Tight Race Rivalry
Quote:
We're playing the Flames at the right time as they’ve looked terrible and are without Giordano.
Their season to date goal differential is minus 25. Need to come out hard and score early to keep them down so they stay on the ropes.
And then win the turd!
|
Quote:
Flames have lost 3 in a row all in Reg
|
Quote:
HUUUUUUGE game. Burry the flames and send them to the dump!
|
Quote:
I think that we're going to see a very focused group in the Flames tonight..Just because Gio is not in the lineup does not mean that they are going to go down easy...
Good to see that EP does not have cracked tailbone, (whomever wrote that ,..needs a slap)...However, not having him in the lineup against the Wild the other night, was not the reason we lost...
Key game of the season for both teams.

Quote:
hoping for a fiery affair. my hatred for the flames has come back again.

Lucic Point
Quote:
My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined
|
Quote:
Jake you can't stand there.
|
Quote:
This might be a barn burner
|
Quote:
I feel like the book is out on the Canucks, high pressure and we fold quite easily
|
Hopefully a Prophet
Quote:
I feel like the Flames have an elite team inside them just waiting to break out.

The Tkachuk Curse
Quote:
The Matt Tkachuk curse continues.
|
Quote:
Even I couldn't be pro-tank if Tkachuk had a Canucks uniform on.
What a shame we missed out on him.
|
Quote:
That decision by Miller to fight Tkachuk was the difference. Love JT but he definitely made the wrong call on that one. You can drop ‘em at 0-0 but when you’ve just opened the scoring 34 seconds in, keep your mitts on.
|
Quote:
Frustrating play by the Canucks since Miller decided to fight Tkachuck. Not his smartest decision even if he got the only punch in
|
Quote:
What on earth are they doing right now?
|
Quote:
Turn on the game, Calgary scores. Fml.
|
Quote:
Wow that was a ****ty backcheck
|
Quote:
Oh come on guys.
What are you guys doing…
|
Quote:
That's one of those where if my team scored it I'd argue it's fine, but because it's on my team I'm all "but he kicked his pad! He clearly made the save on the shot, how else did it get momentum towards the net other than him kicking the pad!!!"
|
Quote:
Miller shouldn’t of fought, Pettersson shouldn’t be playing. This is going to end poorly
|
Quote:
Remember when we drafted Juolevi instead of Tkachuk
just thought I’d say that so we can all reflect
|
Quote:
Time for some of you to move on from the Juolevi-Tkachuk hindsight. Its a horse that's been beaten to death and we can't change history so time to get over it.
|
Quote:
It's never going to go away, bro lol. The nature of how it happened contributes to it, too. Imagine passing on him and handing him on a silver platter to one of your biggest rivals.
He's going to haunt this organisation his whole career, and rightfully so.

The Dark Bounce
Quote:
not the bounce we deserve, but the bounce we need right now
|
Quote:
Canucks get the bounce they needed
|
Swede on Swede Crime
Quote:
Backlund has some bug up his ass about EP...constantly cheapshotting him.
|
Quote:
Are they seriously going to force Petey to go fight back against Backlund? Somebody step up
|
Quote:
I'd give two firsts to have Tom Wilson on this team cheap shotting opponents for **** like what just happened.
|
Quote:
Great, Petterson just got Tim Thomas'd and they're going to do nothing. What a bunch of *****es.
|
Quote:
Somebody has to feed Backlund some fists tonight
|
Quote:
Backlund has been a ####in goof the whole game
|
Quote:
Even HNIC highlighting how little the Canucks are doing to protect Pettersson.
|
Quote:
Sloo foot against Pettersson there wtf
|
Quote:
Backlund being a bitch tonight. First the slew foot on Petey and then this.
|
Quote:
I know every team bitches about this but I swear there’s no other star player in the league that gets absolutely thrown around with no consequences like Pettersson.
|
Quote:
Backlund has been such a piece of #### this game lol
|
Quote:
Backlund is always a piece of ####
|
Quote:
Pettersson is clearly hurt, and shouldn't be playing. The Flames know this and are taking advantage. While the Canucks do nothing. Brutal.
|
Quote:
****ing stand up for Pettersson you ****ing cowards
|
Quote:
And Pettersson gets the call
thats a sick joke
|
Quote:
Lmao the Flames give no F****s they are openly targeting Pettersson, even the goaltender.
|
Dube Rips One
Quote:
The defense is hilariously bad.
|
Quote:
Markstrom, what was that.
|
Quote:
Team getting killed by Mangiapane and Dube. LOL
|
Quote:
This isn't Markstrom's best game...
|
Quote:
Our bottom 6 doesn’t have enough sandpaper, nor is good is enough to take on harder defensive matchups and/or push play into the others teams end.
A good team would keep the puck in the Flames end, punishing their already weakened group of dmen.
|
Quote:
Why did we start Markstrom, why can't Demko get a couple here...
|
Quote:
When Markstrom isn’t Literal Jesus we lose, and that’s not good.
|
Looch with Frosted Tips
Quote:
the caveman scored. How sad
|
Quote:
What's with that teenager dye job on Luc?
Midlife ####in crisis much?
|
Quote:
Of course. What can be worse?
|
Quote:
Of ****ing course it had to be him
|
Quote:
Looch. Nice highlights, bud.
|
Quote:
That skinny blond hockey alien faked a drop pass.
|
Quote:
Hey Milan, the 90s called they want your hair back.
|
Quote:
Must be even better being Lucic. Paid that much money to suck at your job and look like a *****ebag
|
Quote:
We're getting pwned at home by the Flames.
Where the eff is the push back?
Effing sad.
|
Quote:
Getting destroyed by looch.....
|
Quote:
Should get that nose looked at...don't want to end up looking like Marchand.
|
Top Line, Finally
Quote:
Yeah the Flames are kicking sand in our faces tonight.
|
Quote:
We had posters here mocking the fake tough guy Flames after their loss to EDM. THIS team isn’t even fake tough
|
Quote:
Game ,set, match.....Flames were the more desperate team, and could've won the game in the 2nd...
Canucks just look gassed to me...and have looked a step behind in their last 3 games..
|
Quote:
Canucks showing no emotion, just take the beating and no push back. Stir **** up
|
Quote:
This is the type of game that usually starts our late season collapses. We will soon find out but very unhappy with their lack of push back and fight(literally)
|
Reider into the EN
Quote:
Lmao that was the most embarrassing shift of the game, they had the extra man and the Flames controlled the entire play in the Canucks zone.
|
Quote:
We had an empty net, and they STILL made it look like a PP for them.
|
Quote:
**** the flames.
**** game.
|
Quote:
Lol this is the worst game of the year.
|
Quote:
We just got embarrassed by a pathetic Calgary team, but hey, at least our depth is better than the 2011 team, amirite?!?
|
Quote:
I'll give this team one thing, when they suck, they really suck hard.
|
Quote:
And that's all folks. FFS!
|
Scorched Earth
Quote:
Flames were simply the better team tonight.
-Intensity. The elevated and we couldn’t match. The play of their support players was the difference tonight (Ryan, Magiapagne, Lucic, even Jankowski)
-Team play. The flames were good at getting in lanes and blocking shots. Stifled any offensive momentum.
-Special teams. Anemic PP made a difference.
-Petey. Clearly playing injured, and the Flames made sure to take advantage. Lack of emotion or pushback from our side is concerning.
|
Quote:
Fire Newell Brown.
Everytime we lose to Calgary is the worst day of my life. We seriously need some sort of bite back though, Petey was being mugged all game with zero response and it was kinda embarrassing to watch. Topped off by the fact that Boeser was injured and this Saturday sucked a lot.
Still hyped to for Sedin week thougph. Since I hope we comeback with a big game on monday cause we've looked pretty bad last couple of games.
|
Quote:
Teams have recently figured out if they run us, rough us up, knock us around they can beat us. It works dammit.
|
Quote:
Miller played great, but dropping the gloves when you have the momentum going your way is just not a great idea. That's Tkachuk's bread and butter and Miller let him spark his team.
|
Quote:
I dont know why everyone is so pissed. This is the real Canucks. They've been #### for 3 months, these are the kinds of results this team has deserved for a long time. I'm really really hoping the bottom falls out now so Benning doesn't do anything stupid at the deadline to save his job.
|
Quote:
I live in Calgary.
I have to endure these ####ing redneck inbred hicks on Monday. #### this ####ty ####ing city.
Edit: it actually is a really nice city, just sucks being with Flames fans.
|
Quote:
At the same time it's kind of hard to get mad at lack of calls when we just piss it away every single time. It's ridiculous that we can't even get a shot on net.
|
Quote:
Someone post the montage of Petey getting tossed around all game and send it to DoPS. ####ing joke how the same ref who let Pettersson get injured in Boston without a penalty let's Pettersson get tripped, held, blockered in the face, etc.
|
Quote:
The whole "punish them on the PP" strat only works when your PP has a pulse, which ours doesn't
Lack of calls only gets worse in the playoffs, really gonna have to adjust to that if we're upset about it now.
Demko is a good goalie who has stolen games for us already. Give Marky some rest.
|
Quote:
There’s one big positive from tonight: there is now national attention on the fact that our team is too soft or scared to stand up for our 170 pound superstar. Something needs to change, now, and now there’s some gas on the fire.
|
Quote:
I don't ever ####ing want to see Tim Schaller play another game. Dude offers literally nothing to this team 5 on 5. He just floats around on the ice until he can go home and collect a paycheque.
At least Zack MacEwen is willing to actually make his presence known on ice.

Supposed to be a Rat
Quote:
Welp, might as well watch this one. Because of the implications…
|
Quote:
Lol chucky loves fighting now apparently.
|
Quote:
I cannot believe I just saw Lucic and Reider score
|
Quote:
Lucic’s theme song is the entire Shrek soundtrack
|
Quote:
I refuse to watch the post game when the Flames win. Hrudey just creams himself for 10 minutes.
Switched to the Canes Knights instead.
|
Quote:
Division is even tighter now. Ugh
|
Quote:
Mangiapane sure loves his scrum punches doesn’t he? Never will drop the gloves but loves to punch with them on while in a crowd.
|
Quote:
Replay of a Backlund slewfoot, Lucic sucker punch and a Backlund blind slide into a players legs and Louie says they are battling hard.
Louie - you are crossing dangerously into Flames homer territory here pal. Be careful or you’ll be up there with Hrudey and Cassie the Cow.
|
Quote:
Hm, Flames are really doing some damage on the Canucks.
I think they deserve the 2 points. Better not choke this lead.
