Yeah, they added him to their trade bait list today. I'd rather that Panarin goes there than Boston.
Markstrom played 5 games in 8 nights. He deserves a night off.
Yes but now? We couldn't play DiPietro against the Kings or Ducks or Hawks?
Starting DiPietro tonight was fucking savage. Straight from the OHL against a hot offensive team.
Green is dumb for not starting him against the kings/hawks/ducks.
The org is dumb for being in this position in the 1st place after we lost McKenna to waivers.

They had no choice. Markstrom wasn't fit to play (neck stiffness).
The Canucks org fucked up weeks ago by trading for a guy who they intended to waive, apparently forgetting that the Philadelphia Flyers and their horrible goalies are still a thing. Ever since they've been trying to manage but acquiring a serviceable 3rd string goalie is not necessarily cheap or easy. And sure enough Demko goes down at the worst possible time so here we are.
DiPietro should have been 2 years away from his first NHL start. The Canucks never wanted this but they fucked themselves.
Oof, bad night for DiPietro. Then again, it's not like he was that impressive in the World Juniors. I'm not surprised.
lol
I enjoyed watching the Sharks put the Canucks in the trash can, but I couldn't believe how bad the Canucks played in front of the kid. Usually you see teams go all out when a young guy is thrust into action unexpectedly, but the Canucks D let him get scored on in the first minute. 3-4 of those goals were caused by absolute breakdowns by the Canucks.
"put the Canucks in the trash can" - what is this
The first ten minutes of that game was one of the most dreadful performances I've ever witnessed. It's like they knew they had an emergency CHL goalie in net and it fucking terrified them. Everything was wrong. Every little decision by every single player. No exceptions. Didn't help that the first goal came off of Motte's stick and the second goal off of Hutton's glove.
Will be interesting to see how they do on Saturday, but in the meantime they've got a B2B in two days and their only NHL-ready goalies are both injured. Hopefully Markstrom just needed a day's rest because DiPietro is going to get ruined if this keeps up.
Sure, blame the goalie when the team can't score and the coach's deployments are awful.
iPietro...? like iPhone?
i dont get it and my IQ has been measured to be fairly close to a full 100 (rounded up from 86 or so)..

McLeod looks to finally get the pressbox tonight
Which probably means that he'll play on the second line instead

you didn't say "win".. just "help the team"... could have gone both ways :)
Mazanec is garbage, have fun with that
Wonder if there's any more ex-Pred trash that the Rangers can get 7-round picks for

Tanking without throwing our rookie goalies to the wolves? Sounds good to me

Starts with Pettersson, they could probably throw in a 2nd too.
