Spencer Martin is going to be our #1? 
I guess that would be perfect for the tank. But we don't really have anyone in the horizon except Silovs.

It throws the visitors off their rhythm and makes it harder for them to communicate.
Home court advantage baby.

Kuzmenko doing what Boeser can't. I look forward to what we're selling at the deadline.

They already know when the penalty is ending.

Home court advantage baby. | Home field advantage is really cool in football too. Seahawks at their peak with the Legion of Boom just dominating the pass game, QB in shambles as he tries to change the play at the line, crowd going BONKERS and how many times have we seen all this lead up to a 5 yard delay of game penalty, or wasted time outs?

Maybe in amateur hockey, but considering these guys are professionals...
I highly doubt that 1-up sfx really does anything besides fan service.
All the players around are aware of the clock, and the goalie also giving them the signal.
The players probably have that sound tuned out.

Bo sitting out tonight. Pederson waived to send down to Abby when he was practicing on first line this morning.
Incoming trade?

If there was an incoming trade, Bo would've been pulled off the ice during morning practice, not sitting out for the game. He could be nursing something as a game time situation?

Two channels and they both don't work, gulolol.............
Gotta love the silence while in commercial time. At least the breaks aren't filled with obnoxious, bass heavy, repeated shit music like AppleTV+ during Friday Night Blue Jays' games.

Wow, I always record the games on PVR. Just checked it. Looks like they started showing the game on Shaw 201 after the end of the first period, but no sound. All the way till the end. No sound.
Anyway, 208 worked..................

Bad news for Mikheyev: https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article...r-acl-surgery/
I do not see Allvin and the team doctor handling this injury from Mikheyev properly.
This GM knew that Mikheyev sustained an ACL injury during preseason??
This injury sounds pretty serious if this player needs season ending surgery.
-really makes you wonder if the team doctor and Allvin are putting this player's health as a top priority.
Although I commend Mikheyev for his high pain threshold and toughness for playing through this ACL injury, he ran the risk of making the injury worse by playing through it for so many games.
Allvin could have asked Mikheyev to undergo surgery much earlier in the season so that the team can use LTIR cap room for other uses.
As for Demko's injury, Allvin had this update: Allvin also provided an update on Canuck goaltender Thatcher Demko, saying while it's hard to give an exact timeline, he's expected to be out for at least another three weeks.

I can't really find a way blame the team doctor for an ACL tear; they can happen to any athlete at any time, especially if it's already giving them issues.

What is exactly wrong with Demko anyway? Maybe my memory is fuzzy, but I don't recall any big moment in game that caused the injury. Was it from practice?
Seems pretty serious if he's been gone for this long.
