Cam Talbot is terrible!
Division leading Canucks!!??? WTF!!! How the hell did that happen!?
How the hell is a -13 GD team still in contention anyhow? ahhh the pacific has been equally abused by the rest of the league.
I don't get the violence entertainment hype for the upcoming Battle of Albertas tonight and Saturday. Those days are long gone....Matthew Tchkachuk would just assume run away and take a gloved punch or two then answer the bell like the old code used to demand. Zach Kassian is a throw back clinging to old ideals...with the rest of us fans. The most we are going to get here is some cheap hits (Rinaldo or Lucic if he can catch up), cheap shots and a lot of chin wagging....that's the new NHL so pump the brakes media types!
The Donnybrook is dead! The league has forced me to move on to a softer game.....just not sure why they can't stop backdoor supporting fisticuffs or building hype on the insinuation that somebody is going to get somebody. The only thing that somebody is going to get is lots of time in the box or a big fat fine if they try it.
I guess it sounds strange saying man we are going to get you and put up 8 goals! Take that! We are going to skate around you like the wind and make really crisp tape to tape passes and bury the biscuit! We are going to have really great line changes and our PP is going to put you in your place! We will block all of your shots! Our execution will be superior and our one timers will be better than any display sugar Rob, the Bruise Brothers, or Tie ever put on! That does sound very soft after all.
If nothing else it does inject a bit of passion and motivation into this club (and the fanbase).....historically that's been a bit tough to come by. And its been a long time since the Battle of Alberta has been this relevant so there is that. So let the pining for a ghost within the game continue and we'll all live in the sports entertainment world for awhile! I hope the games meet the hype level!
