Thirst line godlyyyyy
Also we are holding first in the entire league! Now let’s see who the three stars are. Blueger and Garland better be in the three.
Edit: um how did Kuzmenko get first star??? Sorry that’s an awful choice.
That was the best game I’ve seen Noah Juulsen play. So nice to see!
#Postives
-Thirst Line
-Juulsen physical presence
-we won and were 2 points ahead in first place going into the holiday break
-Kuzmenko comeback tour
-Garland/Joshua Chem is through the roof
-Blueger/Aman goal was gross
#Negatives
-bad game, shouldn’t have gotten that close
-Demko’s 5-hole recently
-Petterrsson cant finish or stay on his fucking feet and needs to stop looking for calls, also directly led to a goal against that somehow still got blamed on Myers. *Where are you, and Im so sorry, I cannot eat I cannot sleep tonaaaiiiigghht*
seriously though, where the fuck is our all star?
-Joshua getting a liiiiittle too cocky, needs to keep doing what hes good at.
I feel bad but I feel like Kuzmenko might be gone soon unless he figures it out idk.
Jack. Adams.
20-0-0 when leading after the second period btw
A year ago if you told me we’d be leading the league going into Christmas, I would have asked you what kind of crack you were smoking.
It wasn’t an oil painting by any stretch, but I will definitely take it. To be first place in the entire league is something I never thought I would see from Vancouver this season. The team is 7-0-2 in the past nine games and 8-1-2 this month. I thought the first line looked good, but there are some things to clean up, but overall, I thought they were solid. Hopefully, the power play can build off of tonight’s game. They looked solid and created lot’s of chances. Overall, I am really happy with the team, and they have definitely earned some much needed rest and recovery
holy shit Bieksa is being extra mean to Freidman today 🙂
1st in the league for points
2nd in the league for P%
This is reality but I don’t believe it
I’m glad we could give demko a win on an off night for him. He’s bailed us out lots
The last time the Canucks were in the top half of the league going into Christmas was nine years ago.

It’s fun again
Friedeman evolving into Don Cherry with that jacket
First game i was able to see this year. You know what frustrated me the last seasons? The sloppy passing. Most passes just went nowhere for whatever reason. Now it’s tight. Pucks get where they are intended to go. And pretty passes work. It’s such a fun team to watch now.
I would like to point out in 2011 also Dec 23 game was a 7-3 win over Columbus. Also in 2011 and now 2023 the game on Dec 28 are both against the Flyers….
Can someone edit the SJ logo over the bowling pins in the “Who do you think you are I AM” meme video please, with the nux logo on the bowler. What a Chrisrimas gift this team is
We are primed for Vegas and LA match up.. gotta be a LONG wait
When you remark to your buddy pregame “I don’t bet but 2 points for petey, Quinn, jt and a goal by Kuzmenko would be a good parley” bugger.
Some dicey moments but offensively we scored 6 non empty net goals so can’t complain there. Thank God we did enough to avoid the trap game. Now the boys get a well deserved break and move on to the Flyers! Always take it one game at a time boys
This was a poor game played by the boys especially defensively by the Petey line. If anyone thought the guys played a good game is delusional, overall this team can get away with playing poorly against bad teams like the Sharks but if they’re going to show up like this against better teams then well we are going to get clapped.
Also who’d the hell have thought we’d be #1 in the nhl at Christmas!!?? Certainly not me! I’ll take it though! Say it with me …. WOOO! 😎
What happened to the “woo” for each goal?! There was only one for each goal tonight
Even with two goals kuzy still in thr dog house lol, 3 mins of empty net and didn’t even put him out
Who picked the three stars tonight? Kuzy was the first star.
Nothing makes me laugh more than going back to threads from a month ago when the Oilers were heating up and laughing at all their fans who thought the wheels were gonna fall off for the Canucks
Bruh Kuzy has 2 goals but is -2 for the night. Brutal
18 out of possible 22 points for december. I’m back on the Santa Clause is real train again.
I just love how Tocchet has connected with these players.
He has the brain to surround himself with great ex players to help coach. Hall of famers, all stars I mean it’s just coaching by committee.
He also has his finger in the pulse to make changes and reward players with ice time and they pay him back with goals.
Just friken awesome to see.
God I love what he’s doing.
*HNIC panel*: Ok, the Canucks are 1st place in the league at Christmas, very impressive stuff. So Elliotte, what do you have for us from Sheldon Keefe out of Toronto?”
Holy shit Josi’s glove save.
great they got the win and 2 points, but that was some very poor defensive showing against one of the worst teams in the league, rest up for the Christmas break and go back to how they were playing last week
Dak the halls with boughs of Garly, fala la la la la la la laaaaaa!
This part of my life, this little part, is called happiness.
This is going to be one great Christmas
Bleuger’s made a good impression on me; he’s got some puck skills and patience.
Quinn Hughes has the same amount of points as Connor McDavid going into Xmas break lol
My mom asked me where the TV remote was, I said “Vancouver Canucks”.
She immediately knew, it was on top of the table.
All convos at the dinner table this Christmas regardless of where you are should start with…. “*The Vancouver Canucks are GOOOOOOOOOD….*”
ez
Man I’ll be honest as a kid who rooted for the Canucks the 2011 run and lost interest for the past decade it’s so fucking nice to watch hockey again and cheer for a good team. LFG Canucks 🫡
Ngl to you all, I’m scared for the next part of the season after the new year
Let’s go boys. Everybody tell their bosses that they’re saving a vacation day in June so that they can attend the Stanley cup parade. 😂
How was kuzy’s performance outside the 2 goals?
Haha “it’s difficult question for me because I don’t understand zero words” how can you not love this guy
First in person game since before 2020! Let’s fucking goooo!!
