Sergachev scratched because of course.

I heard he put himself ahead of the team. Better ship that glory hound to Nashville while you still can.

Apparently John-Michael Liles didn't retire five years ago.

Lots and lots of empty seats, I heard this game wasn't close to selling out

At least it looks like Fat Opera Guy is looking slightly more plump than last year. Trying to bring back former glory.

Donnelly lost all that weight when he went on that strange pregnancy hormone injection diet. I'm surprised he's gaining it back.

What's the reasoning behind this? The ol' Spreading out the offense or some such?

We have a lovely coach and despite all the evidence to the contrary, the team seems to think that Horvat is going to be a defensive centre not a scorer.

Why would a grown adult drink hard root beer?

Because the man sitting behind the Flames bench already has a couple empties on the dasher

He presumably paid good money to attend a Canucks game. You already know he makes questionable decisions in life.

Loved how Benning's two big off season additions combined for that SICK GOAL

I hate every non-player member of the Canucks' organization and a fair number of the players as well.

The only player on the roster acquired by Benning I even vaguely like is Baertschi. Everyone else is just the same bland "two way" forward or "tough" dman. What a lifeless team he's built.

He wasn't even a great skater when he was in shape.

Is there a phrase in hockey with less meaning than "he skates well for a big guy?"

"big body presence" :v:

At least you know that means he's gonna at least try to be tough sometimes. Is there a single guy over 6'3" that doesn't "skate well for a big guy" these days? It can mean anything from 'they are an okayish skater' to 'Jason Allison would leave them winded.'

This game is boring as poo poo somebody score an own goal again so I can at least laugh

This is the team we get now. Bad, boring and no future.

We're going for it though.

The Canucks are playing like this is their third game in three nights in mid February. Not the first game of the season. Cripes.
