It’s Russell Holiday. It’s Vancouver Connects game day. Woo! Are you guys ready for this? Are you guys ready for this? Now, if the stream goes blank in the middle of it, that means we’ve been taken off the air. Just so you all know, it’s a possibility that that might happen tonight. Uh but yes, let’s uh let’s talk a little bit. Let’s talk a little bit before we get into things. So, my name is Russell Holiday. This is Nothing is Perfect. And we are here today to watch the Vancouver Conucks versus the Seattle Kraken. It’s going to be a lot of fun. That’s the first preseason game. Now, we have already watched the Vancouver Conucks play the Seattle Kraken twice. They have played them twice as a result of them being uh playing in uh a prospect showcase. So they did play a couple games against each other. Just the prospects getting together. Uh so that was kind of the start of that. But regardless, third game in a row, the Vancouver Conucks playing against Seattle Kraken. Um so let’s talk about what we’re going to do tonight because unlike the prospects games, we have a full lineup. Now, we are skipping the stats that you won’t be don’t really need because let’s be honest, nobody cares about the stats in the preseason. It’s not about the stats. It’s not about the past. It’s about where we are today. So, we’re going to start off by going through the Canucks starting lineup, which Brandon Bachelor has so graciously tweeted out for us. So, that’s good to see. Uh we are also going to um have in the first intermission Dustin Boydell will be by uh and he will be by for the Rusty Dusty Sideshow during the first intermission. During the second intermission we’re going to have Tyler coming in from the line change. If you haven’t checked him out, there is a link in the description for him. So go check out his channel. He is uh putting out tons and tons of Conucks content. So make sure you check that out. So, I think the reason we’re going to get Oh, and then the postgame show. Dustin Boydell will be back. He’s going to be back. We’re going to do a postgame show. We’re going to break down all the action. So, um let’s start off like we said by saying hello to all you beautiful people in chat. So, HMS Fang Girl was the first one in here, I think. Although I do know that uh Swervven Irvin was in here farming XP, which does show as a result of um him having 775 points right now. So Swervan Irvin is currently leading the fake um leaderboard. Sky Train Alphin is here and says, “Hey, hey, hey.” And then HMS Fang Girl says, “Hey, Alfred or hi Alfred.” Sky Train offer him says, “Hey yo.” Oh. Uh, sup everyone. How’s everyone? The Blue Jays are in the playoffs bound. So happy the Jays are going to the dance. Yeah, I guess they have a clinch today, which is good to see. Uh, the Toronto Blue Jays will be representing Canada in the MLB playoffs, battling for another World Series. Hopefully the Conucks will do the same for this upcoming season. I agree with that completely. I also want to see them make the playoffs. HMS fang girl, I am too old friend, but I don’t know if it’s a wildcard round or a LDS situation for the Jays. You never know. I think it honestly comes down to injuries because it does sound like there is a little bit of injuries happening with them. Ideally, I prefer LDS. Why is this not doing what it’s supposed to be doing? There we go. Is this thing updating now? Okay. Yes, it is updating. Okay. Hockey season upon us, says uh Paragraph Pro. What’s up, my dude? Puts his hands in the air and he says, “Coconox glow. Coconuts glow. Coconuts glow.” Uh, just so you guys know, I am keeping an eye on the feed. So, they are just going through their lineup. So, we’ll have a little bit of time to chat. McN is here using all those Kak colors in chat. Swervvin, why do the Jays spray champagne just for clinching up laughs? But hey, as a Canucks fan, I will celebrate whenever I can. You know, Rod from Cam Loops in the chat using all the Conucks colors. You’ll love to see it. Sky Train Elephant swerving over uh pulling to Nashville. Yep. Raising the banner when they haven’t won the cup. Baseball is a bit different, I think. Yeah, you’re right. Mike Torrance, welcome back, Mike Torrance. Nice to see you. Hey guys, the Toronto Blue Jays are in the playoffs now. This is People’s First. Welcome back, People’s First Yuka. Nice to see you. Go connects. Go. Go Jay’s go. Welcome back, says Luke Fiveider. Welcome back, Luke Fivesider. Nice to see you, buddy. How was your summer? HMS fan girl. I’m not happy at Sunday football on NBC. There uh social Instagram had Taylor Swift type countdown leading to four Pacific with all the speculation and it was not fun leads nowhere. Rod, this is a team better than the 2015 16 squads. I believe that Jays have won the World Series before. They have twice, Rod, you’re right. Twice. MLB teams have that kind of money. Yep. They can celebrate just Oh, it’s Tuesday. Woo! Champagne out. It’s Tuesday. That’s kind of how it goes, right? Yep. Before I was sadly. I remember watching them win in the 93 series. Rod, you are old like me. So, but I don’t remember watching them. Yeah, crowds are crowds are insane. What’s up, Sensei? Hey, how’s it going? Sensei Dy Dean Y. Oh well, man. PDG. Yo, what everyone? Big Mac’s in the chat. I watched backtoback wins. Oh, lucky prickfetti. Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Guess what, guys? What people? Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Sky elephant is going coconuts. Whoa. And then Mike is guessing chicken butt. Hey, in um in Seattle, they actually have a karaoke style um it’s like karaoke style um national anthem. So, they actually have the national anthem being played there. Oh. Oh, let’s try this. Hang on a second here. There we go. Huh. What is happening here? that Kraken right. Oh, there it goes. Okay. All right. Yeah. See, look at that. They’ve got the national anthem playing along the bottom there. Oh, it’s over now. We just missed it. All right. Back to the bar. We’ll get back over there. Vominos. Vominos. I’m going to see my boyfriend Jeremiah in person. Woo! We finally get to meet in person. That’s awesome. Mike Torrance. Nice. Todd Peterson. Okay, let’s get the cracking. Yeah, let’s get cracking. I like it. I like it. It’s a play on words, Todd. I didn’t get it at first, but now I get it. A relatively early start for the Conucks home game, but this it is a weekend day. Slowly getting used to hockey being back with my having watched a very tight game between the Minnesota Wild and the Jets. 3-2 Minnesota Wild OT win. The Jets had blown a two nothing end of the first period lead. Oh man. Uh, confetti. Todd’s here. Mike’s here. Hico in the house. What’s up, Higo? I’m going to the Ducks preseason tomorrow. Very cool. Kuckland in the chat. Let’s go, baby. Hockey is back. Welcome, Kucks Land. And sneak preview, guys. Kucks Land will be joining us on Wednesday. On Wednesday. Yeah, Russ, you missed the streaming screen. I’m sorry they didn’t announce it until the day before. Doodle hockey. Hey, have a great stream, brother. Thank you very much. I appreciate you. Nice to see you, Doodle. Mr. Jacob Dilly Bar, plays. Where do I watch this? Right here, brother. I got it for you. You can watch it right here. Because it looks like they’re actually giving us the uh stream from Seattle Stadium rather than the stream they’re going to be putting on to um Sportsnet. No, we got it. I’m going to show it to you guys anyways cuz it’s still on kucks.com. All right, before we get into the action, let’s quickly show you guys the starting lineup because we haven’t done this in a while. So, for the Conucks starting lineup, we start off Neil’s Big Hog Hoglander, Philip Heedle, and Jonathan Leer Mackey starting together on the top line. Your number two line is Drew O’ Connor, Teddy Bluger, and Denila Cleovich. Your number three line is Arsh Deep Baines, Braden Coots, and Kefir Sherwood. And your fourth line tonight is Joseph Lebate, Neil’s Almond, and Chase Stillman. And actually, we are underway here at the arena. So, let’s quickly hop on over and get this on the screen for you, shall we? There we go. Now, unfortunately, I won’t be able to play the sound for you either because they are going to be playing music, but we’ll be here together. And actually, I’ll get rid of this here, too, for you. I will do playbyplay for you. We do actually have a scoreboard up here now too, which is nice. Kuck Clay in the chat dropping a 20 bomb. Thank you very very much, Kuck Clay, for stopping by to say hello. Keep up the great work, bro. Admire your dedication. Thank you very much, Kak Clay. I appreciate that. Oh, my head’s pretty big in the corner there. Kak Clay, everyone, if you haven’t yet, which I highly doubt it, make sure you go like and subscribe for Kuck Clay. He’s an absolute legend. Oh, a swing and a miss in the slot for Seattle. Good chance there as Vancouver now clears it down the ice. All the way down the ice, in fact. So, it ends up being an icing call. The Vancouver Conucks icing the puck. My goodness. Oh no, it’s Jordan Samuel Thomas. Does everyone remember Jordan Samuel Thomas from the AHL playoffs? Oh my gosh, he’s here to haunt our dreams again. All right. Yeah, swinging a miss. Did you see that? Couldn’t quite get hold of it. And then Kever Sherwood tries to make a pass up, but pass gets passed. Uh Seattle actually wins the faceoff in the Conucks zone. Working the puck down low onto the half boards. Now back to the blue line. Skating down to the faceoff dot. Slap pass to the front of the net. Toilo who is starting for your Vancouver Conucks. Uh stops that and Vancouver clears it out to center ice and all the way down the ice. That one gets tipped maybe. Nope. Oh yeah. No get tipped. So no icing call on that one. Seattle starting from their own end. Moves slowly out through center ice. Pass up to the blue line. Tipped into the Canucks zone all around behind the net. And that looks like that ends up being an icing call as a result of nobody touching that. So, let’s quickly hop back over uh because I can show you the defense uh while we have a stoppage in play here. So, the defense starting as for the Vancouver Conucks uh is you’re not you’re not you’re not going to show me. Show me. Oh, it doesn’t work on this screen. Oh, we’ll have to fix that. Okay. Blown draw. We got Bluger taking the face off. He wins it back to the blue line. Mancini puts it over across a shot to the front of the net. Deflects wide. Vancouver picks it up behind the net. Stop. Spins. Cleovic. Falls down behind the net. Puts the puck to the corner. Seattle picks it up there. They’ll skate it out past their own blue line slowly to center. They’ll dump it in deep all the way around the boards. Picked up there. Vancouver rings around the boards. Back up to the blue line. Not quite out, but good second effort there by Kovich to work it out to center ice. Seattle takes it in their own zone. They’ll play it out through center ice. That one gets tipped in to the connect zone into the near side corner. Stopped there. Batted ahead with a hand, but since they’re in their own zone, no uh hand pass. And a shot to the front of the net. A quick one. And Tolapilo is up to the task. Flashing that leather and stopping it with his glove for a whistle. Okay, I’m going to try and get this uh thing to work here for you. Here. See? Starting lineup. Where are you? Yeah, there you are. Okay. Oh, it’s gonna be weird, isn’t it? All right, let’s show you guys again. Here. Oh, it’s so small. Look how cute it is. Okay, so the starting lineup. Let’s close that. Oh my gosh. Let’s make it bigger. So, what next breakage in play? I’ll show you guys the defensive starting lineup. A man tries to win a face off in his own zone. Canucks end up giving the puck away to Seattle. They break in and sprawling out goes full spread and makes a stop. Vancouver moves it out through center ice. stopped up. Work it back to the blue line. Gets tipped there. Now Tom willer will have to backtrack. Passes across for DP. Kucks through center ice. Pass up. Flipped to the front of the net. Knocks go all the way. Coots making moves. Pass back to the blue line. Shot to the front of the net by DPD. Seattle picks up the rebound. Skates it in behind their own net. And they’ll start it out through center. Vancouver will start a change here. Uh Kefir Shuard trying to throw a body check. Can’t get quite enough skin on it. Seattle breaks in. Good defensive play there by number seven for your Vancouver Conucks. Uh Pierre Olivier Joseph making his presence known. Baines and Sherwood. Aggressive for check. Vancouver with a threeman press. Good good looking there. Mancini tips it to the corner. Puck to the middle. Kefir Sherwood picks it up there on his blue line. Gets the center. He’ll flip it in. Baines moves in on the forche. Picks up the puck, leaves it, ends up getting past Manscini all the way back down into the connect zone. Picked up there by Sorino. Puck goes all the way down the ice. That one gets right onto the goalender. So, he picks it up. Leer Macki throws a hit. Can’t come up with a puck though. Seattle picks it up in the corner. That’ll bring it around the boards all the way up to center. Flip to the middle. Speed over the blue line. Ends up going back to the corner. Flipping up to the half board. Shot to the front of the net. looking for a shot and a rebound. Seattle couldn’t quite get a stick on that one and the puck gets flipped all the way down the ice. Not quite enough for icing. Vancouver Conucks trying to come up with an aggressive puck check and he pokes it over to his teammate and can’t quite get the puck back. Vancouver flips it back in. It looks like the net has come off as morning Joey Dord starting for the Seattle Kraken. Oh my goodness. Okay, defensive pairings since I didn’t show you yet. Here it is. Let’s see if it works. Oh no, they’re so low. Okay, Jimmy Schultz and Victoria Mancini together. Then we got Elias Person, Elias Patterson and Tom Lander, a young pair there. And then we got the old veteran uh Po Joseph with Sorino, the young guy. We also have to starting a net, but I also did put Tai Young as the backup here. I don’t know if he’ll get any time tonight, but we’ll see. So, there is your starting lineups for the night. All right, Seattle controlling in their own zone. Puts the puck out to center ice. picked up there by the Canucks. They flip it back out to center over the blue line for Seattle. Bluger puts it in behind the net. Kimovic skates in to pick it up. Can’t get to it first. Seattle moves it down the ice up to the blue line. Stopped there by DPD. Hooked over Kimovic over for Willander. Willander skates down. Shot to the front of the net. Sharp shot. Looking for some garbage there. Hoping for a rebound. Pey across to Kovichic. Shot to the front of the net. Blocked and goes to the corner. Vancouver can’t come up with it. Flipped out to center all the way down the ice. Back into the Kuck zone. Picked up there by Mr. DPD. He flips into the corner for Mancini. DPD to Mancini. He stops behind his own net. He’ll let his team finish the change, but it looks like DPD stays on for just the moment to give him support, but he’ll go off as soon as he gets the opportunity to. Mancini over center, rings it around the boards. Threeman press coming in for checking. Vancouver can’t come over the puck. Seattle clears it over to the blue line, but kept in there by Hoglander. Hoglander puts it down low for Mr. Heedle. Heedle battling in the corner. Can’t come up with it. Hoglander skates onto the puck though. He turns and he falls on a stick. And are they going to call it? Yes, they are going to call that. I don’t know if it was an actual trip, but it looks like the Seattle player ends up losing his stick. Probably dropping it to try to avoid the call. But unfortunately, uh, our man Oh, look at number 17 for Seattle making the call on the tripping call. Let’s get another look at this. Yeah, getting this. Oh, yeah. Looks like Hoglander ends up just stepping on the stick, falling over, and the Seattle player drops his stick in hopes that he would be able to avoid the penalty, but unfortunately he did not. And that means the Vancouver Conucks are going to the first power play of the game. Heedle taking the face off. He gets waved. Who’s going to come in and take it? Looks like Hoglander might do it. Hoglander lining up at the faceoff. Ends up winning it back in replacement. Willlander skates down the boards, stops up, puts it into the corner. Hedo puts it further down in the corner. Hoglander rings around the boards with a little bit too much mustard and that puck will come all the way back down into the Canucks zone. Johnny Canucks, say a prayer for Clay. Take care. Good luck, Clay. Thanks for being here, buddy. I appreciate you. Puck all the way down the ice. Seattle clearing it out on the penalty kill. Slowly out of their zone, Tom Willander looks across, passes over, puck to the middle, Lecherman over to Willander. Willander plays it across to the boards for the new number nine on your Vancouver Conucks, Denil Kleovic, which we’ll have to keep an eye on because Drew Oconor’s 18 and Kleovic was 18. Oh, puck gets past Leer and he’ll have to backtrack into his own zone. He plays it across for Willander. Willander stops up, slows, puts it back into the zone. No one’s there. Satola will come out of the zone or out of his net to stop it behind his net. Sorino stops behind his own net. Got major minor in the chat. Did we eggplant eggplant? $2.

To comes into the corner, plays up for Joseph. Joseph plays it up to center. Tipped in by the Conucks there. Good for check there by Almond. Another good hit there by Lebate throwing his big frame around. Back to the blue line over Joseph. Joseph has the puck roll off his stick unfortunately into the corner. Seattle will pick it up there. Mini. Oh, face slap. Dustin is the main sponsor. How can he be the sponsor if he is part of the show? Because Dustin can do whatever the heck he wants. Shot to the front net. Toolo kicks it to the side. Bane picks up the rebound in the slot. Skates out through center. Passes across the blue line. Actually passes it behind Sherwood. Now ends up creating a turnover. Tries to pass across but it didn’t work. Now Seattle comes in twoon-one down low. Shot and they managed to beat Toapilo on the glove side. So unfortunately that means the Seattle Kraken scoring the first goal of the game and taking a one to nothing lead. unfortunate breakdown in the neutral zone. Ends up coming all the way down. And speaking of sale, he ends up scoring the first goal of the game for the Seattle Kraken. It’s kind of funny how you were just talking about that, eh? Sometimes it goes like that. Thanks, Coach Rob says HMS fan girl. Can’t wait for Wednesday going to the game and my birthday. Bro, make sure you remind me on Wednesday. Remind me on Wednesday. I’ll sing you happy birthday, Andrew. Laugh out loud at TLC. The new Oilers uh the Oilers new one is bad. Yeah, isn’t it? Ah, what’s up, Tyler? Willander needs to show well. Yeah, I agree in his game if he doesn’t uh want to end up in Abby. Did not do enough in the prospects game. Agreed. The line change YVR Y RV with the sunglasses on. No, Minnesota is wild. That is true. The Kraken aren’t the first with the glow-in-the-dark. Vegas does as well. What? So, they’re just copying the Vegas Golden Knights. How lame is that? Yo, see one nothing on our screen and one nothing on their screen. So, we are live watching the Vancouver Conucks versus Seattle Kraken. I am Russ Holiday. This is nothing is perfect. And if you haven’t seen this channel before, we are live during every single Vancouver Conucks game. Uh, it’s going to be a great season. I can feel it in my bones. That troll is creepy, man. What is that troll’s name? Does anyone know? Levy Green using the RD emote. You love to see it. Segmina in the chat. Hockey in the dark with a glowing puck and uniform. I remember years ago when I was a young man and we used to play roller hockey at the lacrosse box in Abbisford. Uh usually Saturdays, but we would play so long the sun would go down and we bought a glow-in-the-dark ball and uh let me tell you, we didn’t have glow-in-the-dark jerseys. So, uh let’s just say it did not last very long or work very well to play glow-in-the-dark hockey. It was very dangerous. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. You got it, buddy. Major minor, you haven’t been on CCC in a while. Hey, Tristan. Hey, says Zach McN. Tristan Talio. That’s so awesome you’re here. Sensei Y. Woo. Christopher Goyan. DPD making a few turnovers this period. Yeah, not a great start for the DPD. You know what? I haven’t even done yet either. I’ve got this tasty drink. Oh, looks like the Conucks have taken a penalty, too. Kovichic in the box. I’d like to propose a toast to this tasty drink has been sitting here the whole time. All right, back to the action here. Seattle on the power play for some reason. Kimovic taking a penalty. Knocks Drew O’ Connor with that speed in frame getting the puck all the way down to the Seattle zone. What’s up Tristan? Says Taylor Betts. Oh yeah. This is what happens unfortunately when we watching a feed from the stadiums. Did I get the fly? There’s flies in my house. Uh we are literally watching a replay of who scored the goal. Uh, why do we stop playing street hockey as adults? That’s a very good question, Kyle. Because we forget how to love. No. Is that right? That is a good question. Tyler agrees. Go Canucks. Go. Go Canucks. Go. All right. Seattle can’t get the puck into the Canucks zone on this power play. Only 42 seconds left to go. I don’t think they even have a shot yet. This Vancouver defense looking really good out here. Drew O’ Conor and Kever Sherwood shutting things down. Sherwood putting the puck all the way down the ice. Joey Decord stopping it there for his defenseman. Well, it’s still early. It is. Yeah. No. Drew O’ Connor. Nope. Who is that? Ah, rugby game on the corner. Seattle works it back to the blue line. 9 seconds left in the power play. One-time. A swing and a miss goes wide. Puck comes up around the boards. Puck gets rung round and just a little early for the man coming out of the box. So, Kovichic didn’t get that, but the puck gets all the way down the ice. And the Vancouver Canucks have killed off their first penalty of the game. So, the teams are now 0 for one each. Unless you’re talking about penalty kills, then they’re one for one. But on the power play, neither team has been able to capitalize. Lacer, he puts the puck up to Hogland. Hoglander works in the middle for Heedle. Heedle takes the puck off the skate and puts it up to his stick. gets a shot, but it deflects wide off of a stick. Now Leer Mackey gets held a little bit, loses the puck. Unfortunately, Seattle spins their own blue line, moves it out through center. Puck over to the blue line. Good pass there. Shot to the front of that gets blocked by number 48 for the Vancouver Conucks. Jimmy Schulz Heedle moves it in, skates it all the way down to the corner, ends up going behind the net, stops up trying to keep one hand on the stick, protecting it, puts it back to the blue line. Mo puck just in front of him. Tries to get a shot down low, but it gets blocked and then chipped down the ice. Joseph picks it up at his own blue line. Plays it up to the Seattle blue line. And then the Conucks give it away. Now a breakaway down low into the zone deep dig to the backhand and a good back check by Pier Olivier Joseph. But to come up with a save. I think Joseph got there just in time. And it looks like the Seattle player might be upset. Did Joseph get a stick on the man? Yeah, he did. But also Toapilo making the save. So Joseph hustling back deep to the back end and a toe save from Kovichic. Joseph just a little bit interference, but Toapilo does most of the work on that play and dives across with his toe and makes the save. Almond loses the faceoff in his zone. 240 left to go. And that Seattle player ends up hitting his own man in the leg and he goes down. Puck comes out to center. Big hit there by Lebate sending his man flying down the ice. The Conucks put it into the Seattle zone. Joey Dord plays it around the boards out to the blue line and it looks like there’s a fight now at center ice, but they’re showing Joey Dord instead. Now they cut back. It’s Lebate. He’s fighting for that big hit. Looks like he’s fighting Hayden or is it Aiden or is it Jaden? All these millennial names. They’re just all tied up. Looks like he got him loose. Uh but he put him down. So, it looks like the refs are going to step in and Lebates answering the bell after a big hit on Aiden. The boys are going to chirp a little bit as they It is Hayden. Yeah, there it is. And they’re going to put them right to the locker rooms cuz there’s only 226 left to go in this period. First fight of the game, Lebate versus Hayden. Uh we didn’t see half of it, so we’re going to call it a draw because by the time they showed it to us, they were just like this. There wasn’t a whole lot going on there. So, first fight of the game. A little bit lackluster. Thomas, let’s burn it at the start of the season. Holy, they are getting disjointed. Yeah, shades of Captain Kirk there. What do you mean that I annunciate my words in a strange timing with annunciations on words that you wouldn’t expect? Okay, let’s see what happened here. So, there was the hit at center and then the guy cross checked him and then yeah, he just walks in and they grab each other. Do we see any Oh, there. Oh, maybe. No, no, they’re just hugging. Yeah, doesn’t look like we had any. Yes, swvin. That’s the greatest comment I’ve seen all day. To pilo and it looks like Seattle has taken a penalty out of this. So, they’ve taken a four-minute penalty out of this somehow. So, does look like the Conucks are on the power play for four minutes. So, somebody said something, but we get a double miner. Cleovic plays it over to Leer Macki. Lemuraki gets it back to Cleovic and his shot and Mr. Dord makes the save and covers up the rebound. Not even a uh Captain Kirk never ages. He went to space, man. You know, Captain Kirk really went to space.appy schmurf day to you, Annabelle Little. A line change. I mean, they’ve made progress on the facility. laugh out loud. And Annabelle’s like, “Hello.” All right. Puck all the way down the ice. Vancouver resetting the power play in their own zone. Heedle in on the forche. Can’t come up with it. Rung around the boards. Gets past the connect player and all the way down. Picked up there by Willander. Willander with a backhand pass that gets blocked. Seattle now tries to take a shot to the front of the net and Willander gets his stick on that one. So Hayden gets two minutes for cross-checking and two minutes for instigating. Okay, so Hayden ends up getting two minutes for cross-checking, two minutes for instigating and then they both got five minutes. So Hayden ends up getting nine minutes in penalties on the play whereas our man Joe Leate ends up only getting the fiveminute major for the fight. So there it is. There’s your answer as to why the Vancouver Conucks are on the power play. Canucks win the face off in their own zone. Mancini gets stopped up. He passes across the zone over to Sherwood. Sherwood stops up, passes it back to Mancini. Conucks are flatfooted in their own zone. Sherwood now with speed through center. Passes to the side on the blue line, dumped in behind the Seattle zone or the net. Puck rung around the boards into the corner. Seattle picks it up there and flips it out to center. Picked up there by Mancini. Mancini plays it over for Baines. Baines through center, takes it over the blue line, flips it to the halfboard, skates onto it, stops up in the corner, flips it to the Mino in the behind the net. Mino misses it. Puck ends up going up the halfboard. Seattle picks it up there off the skates. Tried to get up past the blue line. Can’t get it. Now Mansini with a tow drag. Puts it in front. Can’t get it. Mino now flips it back high to the line. Mancini back to pick it up. He’ll pass it all the way up for Coots. Coots brings it in offside. He was feet was in. His teammate was in, but he didn’t have the puck in the zone. And that means it’s an offside call. Vancouver will have a faceoff outside the Seattle Blue Line. There is 36.1 seconds left to go in the first period of play. 44 seconds left to go. Uh, sorry, 2 minutes and 10 seconds left to go. So, the Conucks will have almost a full power play at the beginning of the second period if they fail to score here with 30 seconds seconds left to go in this period. Seattle wins the draw. Puts it back. Joey Dord plays it off the glass all the way out center. Picked up there by Willander. Yes, Andrew. They do need to learn the learn the rules, don’t they? Heedle with some speed looks to the middle. Nothing there. So, he skates around behind the net back to the corner. Shot right through the crease. Ends up bouncing past Lacermani, but he picks it up. Puts it over across. Oh, a pass all the way down to the near side. Can’t get picked up there. Vancouver picks it up the blue line. Willander plays it across the blue line. A stutter step and a shot at the front net. And Joy Dord makes a save with the blocker and the knee. And they’ll have 1.8 8 seconds left to go in this period before we get into the intermission with our man, the man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Dustin Boydell coming up in 1.8 seconds. You love to see it. Seattle fans having fun down there, enjoying this action-packed game so far. Keel, what is he going to do? He’s only got 18 1.8 seconds and Seattle ends up winning it. And that’ll be the end of the first period of play. So that means it’s time to get our man on the phone. So let’s go back to the bar and remind you that my name is Russell Holiday. This is Nothing is Perfect. And we’re going to have some Rusty and Dusty Sideshow here in the intermission. So thank you everyone for being here. If you haven’t yet, make sure you hit that like button. Make sure you hit that subscribe button and uh we’ll be live during every single Vancouver Conucks game this whole season. So, make sure you stick around. Let’s get this whole thing set up, shall we? Yeah, look at that. Dustin’s face is just popping right up there. All right, so we’ve done the prospects games and uh we’ve done uh this is the two prospect games we’ve done. So, now it’s time for some pre-season time with Mr. Dustin Bodell. What’s up, my dude? Good evening, everybody. How’s it going, man? Good, good, good. It’s actually quite an action-packed first period considering, you know, preseason it didn’t, you know, sometimes it comes out it’s garbage, but man, they were up and down pretty quick on the ice today. I mean, you you got a lot of young guys out there that are uh fighting for fighting for a spot uh with the Canucks, whether that is showing that they belong in Abbottzford instead of junior or showing that maybe they deserve a shot uh with the big team. Um also, you know, we had we saw Wheelander in the prospect games didn’t really show what we had hoped. Um jumping into prolevel hockey. Uh, and again tonight some some good moments with his feet. Um, but also still looks slow to process moving the puck at the NHL level. He’s making plays that you get away with at college um, but you don’t get away with it in the NHL. And with it’s actually a good thing that the Kraken are icing pretty much their opening night roster. um when you look at their team versus the Canucks and and the Canucks are are yeah the shot totals are a little bit lopsided but this is basically an AHL junior team that is holding um an NHL team to a one- nothing uh deficit right now. So um really just a unfortunate uh turnover there um that led to the uh the crack and goal. Uh, Mino probably shouldn’t have jumped up uh on the on the center line there to try and play aggressive. He should have kind of backed in, let the forwards regroup because it was a forward turnover at the blue line. Um, but that’s just a young player that hasn’t played any prolevel games. The game turns fast. um in junior he probably gets away with jumping up and making that aggressive play and shutting a guy down, but in the NHL when you got NHL forwards playing against you, um that’s going to be a little tougher. So, there’s just quick lessons that these young guys are learning um that hopefully, you know, the coaches are talking to them with. Um you know, I’m not really taking much out of the result of the game tonight. I’m I’m really just looking at the systems what foot is trying to implement differently than talk it last year. Already we’ve seen a pattern with the power plays. Uh and I’m curious to see if it goes into uh when we have our full regular roster. Um it seems like the first unit is going with a single defenseman and then the second unit is coming out with two defenseman ever every every time we’ve had a power play. So, I’m curious to see if that pattern continues. Um, and they’re kind of splitting time. One minute, one minute. Obviously, that may change when Hughes is in the lineup, right? He kind of has uh the the free reign to to do what he wants when it comes to the power play. If he can stay out there for two minutes if he thinks he’s fresh enough to to be uh dangerous and get something on the board, then obviously you have that trust and faith in Hughes to to do that. But I do like seeing them going with two defenseman in the later half of the power play when the other player is going to be coming out. Um because then you can regroup defensively better. You don’t get stuck out there with four forwards for an extended period when you’re when you’re on the tail end of the power play because you are going to be a little bit tired at times uh because you may have been out there for longer than you normally would be. So I kind of like that that sort of thing. Um took them a bit bit to get some shots on goal, but uh getting it up to seven late in the period. That’s good to see. Uh I like I I really like so far uh Braden Coots uh what he’s done in in uh in the short time that he had in the first prospect game. He looked really good, but whenever he has the puck, he just looks like he kind of slows the game down when it’s on his stick. Um just differently than other players when you kind of watch them, especially at his age. It’s nice to see that. uh you see that poise and uh kind of uh hockey sense that they were talking about when when he was drafted and and what his junior coach has kind of said about him in the WHL. So, uh, you really love to see that, uh, he’s coming as advertised. And, you know, if that kid outgrows Junior too quickly, um, we could see him potentially pushed into a role on this team, especially with the uncertainty at center. And, uh, we see Heedle in this game a little bit using his feet, which is good. Uh, seems like he’s healthy and has some speed back. Um, but his job is the main focus, right? So, he’s got a lot of pressure on him. uh with a lot of younger guys that could potentially play second line center if they exceed their ceilings. I mean, that’s the thing, too. Everyone knows that that job is up for grabs for Heedle or whoever wants to take it. I mean, Heedle probably has that front running spot to get that second line center. However, uh it seems like he’s doing a really really good job of making a case for him to get that position to start because all out of camp, all the reports, everyone’s saying, “Man, Filipedo is here and he means business. Absolutely. I think he’s he did have a bit of a confidence hit uh in New York um getting stuck behind a couple of other guys on the depth chart and never really given a fair shake to show his ability as uh someone who can drive an offense on a line. Um, so I am excited to see uh what a healthy Heedle can do. And uh, yeah, again, it sounds like all of the players really bought into the offseason work that they needed to do with this new coaching staff and the new coaching staff’s approach of like designing specific tasks for each player. Um, and not just kind of blanketing saying you all need to do this and you all need to come to camp with this in mind. It seems like everything was very pinpointed to each player to come in and have um the best camp they could have. And I’m excited to see more of the veterans get into the lineup as we get closer to opening night and and that last preseason game when you pretty much have everyone who you should see opening night uh save for a couple of final auditions uh from those last minute AHL picks or or either staying up or going down. Major minor donating $2 is a shout out to Quinn Hughes in chat. Above average D. Yep, 100%. I’m an above average D. He’s above everyone in the whole league. Uh and then Pink Sunglasses getting crazy with a 1399 dono. Canucks are back. Nice to see you, Pink. Good to see. I do want to quickly go talk back about the power play because we talked about Mo a little bit and there was it was funny too that you mentioned that because on the power play the unit where they had the two defenseman you actually ended up with it almost looks like a set play where it was essentially a give and go across the entire zone where you end up seeing Sar Mano at the front of the net at the end of it which that could be a sneak preview of hey even if you are defenseman even if we have two defenseman out there they have no problem activating it I absolutely love that because it creates that spin motion in the in the uh offensive zone and it’s a lot harder I think to defend when you are on the penalty kill against the Kucks players like that. Absolutely. And I think uh a lot of these young defensemen that are coming out of junior are developing a lot quicker than we used to see defenseman develop and it’s because they’re being coached in in a two-way hockey game. um you know, they they play offense well enough that you can utilize them when need when you need to. Um but they’re also defensively responsible where they can get back to where they need to be. Um it just is a matter of catching up to that NHL game for a couple of these guys that have never really played against this caliber of talent. Uh especially like Sawyer Mino who’s only played at the WHL level. So to come up and now be playing against basically an NHL team. Um you’re going to make mistakes which are acceptable in these types of games, that’s what they’re for. Um but you also need to show your strengths which is what these young guys are trying to do. And I really like that they’ve kind of been given that confidence to go and and play to their game uh and and have that ability to make mistakes. They look loose, right? like like no one really looks like they’re playing nervous out there or gripping the stick a little too tight. They are making mistakes, but the mistakes are going to happen. Um just because it is early, new coach and everything like that. Um but I do like the flow they were starting to get towards the end of the period. uh the way they are allowing a defenseman to move up with the play and kind of have four men on the attack instead of that stale three guys across the blue line pass it off to the side get shut down by a blocked shot and it’s all of a sudden going back the other way. It was nice to see in the last couple minutes of that period. Yeah, we have the 4minute power play because of the instigator and stuff, but uh even before that, the Canucks were kind of starting to get some some shifts in the Kraken zone where they were sustaining some pressure. Um uh DPD had a couple of nice passes through some legs uh across seam to the far side. You know, those are going to connect here soon and and you’re they’re going to find one that beats uh Dard hopefully. Um, but uh, as long as they keep pressing the way they’ve been pressing, this young team is showing well against a a heavy veteran Kraken team. So, I I’ve been impressed up to this point. Let’s talk a little bit about the goalending because obviously we have maybe the deepest goalending pool in the entire NHL right now with Demco and Lankin as our top two and then you got Toilo and Young. and Young came up from the ECHL and the AHL and only lost like two games. Uh and then you got Tool Peeler tonight after playing an amazing period in the scrimmage the other day. Um he has looked absolutely lights out minus the one goal that he didn’t really have much of a chance on. Uh he’s made some really big saves for them so far tonight. Absolutely. And I harped about this last year um when watching the Abbottzford Canucks and seeing the depth in goal um knowing that we also have Yuri Peter who blew his leg out in early early in the season last year and didn’t come back until basically the Calder Cup finals. Um and he’s another young goalie who has immense skill, has some NHL experience uh down with Vegas when they had some injury problems. He did play some games and did show well. Um obviously with the goalies we have he is a little bit on the smaller side Peter but everyone else um but he makes up for it with speed and skill um which is which is great. And then you look at the guys that we’ve drafted and uh have kind of pulled out of nowhere. I mean you got Medvadev who uh is now back to junior already um because their season has started which is fine. That’s a great spot for him because of the depth with Toapilo, Tai Young, Yuri Peter, um, Kosinvo, Costinvo. Um, now as well, like it’s crazy when we used to be the goalie graveyard. You can see why Sheilov’s ended up being expendable because we have enough depth at goal if Demco truly is healthy, which it sounds like he’s in the best shape he’s been in probably three seasons. Um, that’s pretty exciting stuff having a tandem of him and Kevin Lankanin that can basically go, who knows if Demco is Demco, he’s going to get twothirds of the starts and those other third of the starts, you have a guy who’s basically a starter on five other teams in the NHL. Um, it was just inevitable. And yeah, Toolo looks incredible. Um, I can see why the Conucks maybe kept him over She loves just based off of contract timing. uh little little more size than she loves. Not much, just you can see he plays bigger than she loves. He covers the top of the net a little better. Uh tracks the puck through traffic a little better. Um so just some little things that that just made him less expendable. So, um, it’s always comforting to see that if if something does go ary and we do have an injury up with the big club, we got some young guys that are ready to fill in and and, uh, we’ll will do just fine as backups at the NHL level. Yeah. 6’6 total. So, he’s the same height as All Rickson, which is absolutely wild. 200 almost 230 lbs. So, he is a big boy and taking up a lot of the net back there, which probably helps his cause. Um, was there anyone that I mean it’s only one period of the preseason. Is there anyone you kind of felt maybe was you know a little invisible out there like I didn’t I don’t think I really noticed Stillman much. I don’t think he got a lot of time out there on the ice. Um but I mean Leb has the fight. So from that fourth line if you’re looking at three guys Almond Leate and Stillman Stillman was kind of invisible. Almond looked you know had a couple plays where he looked like he was moving and then Leb throwing a big hit and getting into a fight. So, if you’re looking at that fourth line, is is Stillman kind of the odd man out right now? I think so. And I think that goes kind of with the power plays the Canucks have had and then also had to kill a penalty. So, it just kind of when you’re on that fourth line, it just kind of puts you as the odd man out. Um, Stillman really came over in that trade with with Sheil as kind of a filler guy. I I honestly think he’s more of a veteran to send to Abbottzford. Um, I don’t think there was ever any intention of him to come up to the NHL, but we’ll have to see if he continues to to get looks through the preeason. Um, but really, he’s just another bottom six guy that we have a log jam in already. So, um, not surprising to see him not get a lot of ice chime. Also, Kucks had said they want the young guys to play this first game. So Stillman just kind of fills that NHL veteran void where you have to you have to suit up a certain number of players that have played NHL games. So really there may not have been much intention of playing him tonight much anyways. So the Conucks did uh end up doing a little bit of roster management today. Not a whole lot of crazy stuff. Nothing too out of the ordinary. Josh Bloom going down. Coon’s going down. Walker going down. Cam bites going down. Sherro Patterson. Medvidev and Dervin and then Sandu all going down. Now I’m not surprised by any of these. Are you disappointed because you wanted to see a little bit more out of any of these guys or have you already seen enough out of all these junior guys that got sent down today? I think the only one I was a little bit disappointed with was Riley Patterson. Uh I think in the two prospect games as a 19-year-old, he really showed that he’s ready to to make the jump to the pro level. I personally I think um that maybe he should have started in Abbottzford. Um but you know the Canucks know better than I do. I mean they they know their depth charts and everything. So maybe sending him back to junior was the best spot for him to keep his confidence building. And maybe in a couple months if if he is lighting the juniors on fire, they bring him into Abbottzford. Um depending on how the center situation unfolds with the rest of the club. Um, unfortunately, he’s kind of one of those guys that’s going to be on that fringe for a bit, uh, until we sort this center situation out. Um, because Riley Patterson kind of seems like one of those guys that could push for a second line center position. Um, but right now would be, you know, a a third line guy at the AHL level. and and I don’t know if there’s really a spot for him in Abbottzford to succeed. Uh whereas in the juniors, he’s going to get way more ice time than he would with Abbottzford. So that’s really the only one that I thought was weird, but uh mostly just just regular housekeeping for Albine and company doing those cuts today and I’m sure we’ll see a couple more in the next couple days. So, the last thing I’ll ask you before we head into the uh second period here as the boys just start coming out onto the ice. Um, is there anyone that you think is on the bubble who the Conucks are going to be willing to wave somebody else for? Because we’ve talked about the fact Weraki’s waiver exempt, you know, Max Sassin’s waiver exempt, but Baines and Carlson are not, right? Mhm. So, if Baines puts in an effort like he does tonight, like he’s already been playing well, do you think the Conucks are willing to wave another player to keep a guy like Baines? Oh, that’s really hard to say right now. Um, someone’s really really going to have to show out in the in the preseason here to to make that happen. Uh, I just don’t think the Canucks are willing to put themselves in a position to lose some of their youth for free. Um because there are a couple of guys I mean that we talked about it why she loves got traded. He would never have made it through waiverss um no matter how good or bad he played in the preseason. And there are a couple of young guys that are you know they’re from a Calder Cup winning team. Um a lot of teams out in the NHL will take a chance on them given their play in the AHL last year. So um we’ll have to see what happens in the next couple of games. Cool. Look like we’re jumping right into the action. So, we’ll see you in the postgame show, brother. Sounds good. Enjoy the rest of the game chat and we’ll uh we’ll talk to you soon. I wasn’t lying. We’re right into the action. Kicking Dustin off the air. Kucks on the power play. I’ve got my own name in front of my face. Canucks move it into the zone. Kovich plays it back to blue line. Willander plays it across the blue line for Lemani. Down into the corner back to Lemani. Over to Willander. High slot. Shot to the front of the net. Tipped just wide by Hoglander. Heedle might have been there to get a piece of it, too. Seattle managed to pick up the puck and scoop it down the ice. Let’s get this stuff off my face, shall we? Hello, it’s me, Russell Holiday. Canucks move it in. Cleovic gets stopped up. Stopped on the halfboards. Pin there. Will Ander comes in to poke the puck free. Heedle gets the puck back to the blue line, but it skips past Will and they’ll have to recoup back at center ice. Willander plays it over for Heedle and he’ll go up for a change. Heedle over the blue line. Plays it across the blue line to the farboards. Back to the blue line, but there is no defense in there because he is changing. So the puck comes all the way out to center. Good entry by Heedle, but then they gave it away. Puck over to the blue line. Baines in offside. They’re going to call it there. And uh we’ll get a whistle and the face level will come outside the Seattle zone. Thank you very much Dustin for being here for the first intermission entertainment, the Rusty and Dusty Sideshow. Dusty is here quite often. So, make sure you check him out on his Instagram page, which is Paragolfer Pro Paragolf Pro on Instagram. He is a professional paragrapher, which means that he is um uh Dustin plays in a league. Well, I mean, he just won his first tournament against able-bodied golfers, but Dustin’s job is to go out there and play golf, so go check him out on his Instagram. 11 seconds left to go on the power play. Seattle works it out to center. Vancouver intercepts it there, and they’ll flip it in. Moving in on the four check. Dord stops behind the net, plays it to the corner, and there is a whistle or something. Maybe too many men on the ice. Larson doesn’t know what’s going on. I don’t know what’s going on. Hoget and Larson running into each other. Just a gentle bump there. Like the referees are sorting something out. HMS Vangro. Go Conucks go. Scannon says go. Major minor has anyone seen Patrick Galavine? I need to ask him about she loves Segmina. I would say it’s 90% chance Demco stays healthy and above average stats if they split games with blankie. If they chill Demco would have been able to safely play 60 games. Your guess is as good as mine as to why they blew the whistle there. 1828 left to go in the second period of play. One- nothing Seattle leads Vancouver. Heedle lining up for the faceoff with his linemates Leer Mackey and Hoglander. The Canucks have jumped. The referee won’t throw out Heedle yet. Heedle ends up winning the draw back to the blue line. Back to the half courts into the middle. Shot to the front of the net off the bar. Leer Mackey rings it hard off the crossbar and the puck comes back out. gets chipped all the way down the ice. Leer Macki is the first one back to pick it up. Leaves it for Willander. Willander through center with speed. Got a fiveman unit. Yeah, right off the bar there as you can see on the replay that’s popped up on the screen. Canucks ring the puck in. So the Conucks are onto another power play. So it looks like they were on a five on three power play for a moment there. Seattle puts the puck down the ice. So they did in fact take a penalty there. Conucks onto their It would technically be their fourth power play of the game now. After failing to score on a two-minute power play and a double minor, the court stops behind his net, plays to the corner. Seattle rings it around the boards, off the boards, and down the ice into the Vancouver zone. Vancini behind his own net, takes his moment, skates out, passes across the blue line. Hard pass, can’t be held. Seattle intercepts it, puts it all the way down the ice. To stops behind his net, plays it for Mancini. Mancini over his own blue line up to Sherwood. Sherwood plays it across for Coots. Coots skates onto it. Gets the puck, looks to the middle, goes behind the net, plays it up the half boards. Vancouver puts it in behind the net, brings it around the boards. No defenseman’s there unfortunately. And the puck comes all the way out to center ice. Mancini first man onto the puck. He’ll play it over for Coots. Coots misses the puck. Sherwood skates onto it. Coots and Sherwood almost run into each other. Sherwood over the blue line, draws for Coots. Coots puts it across the blue line. Good pass there for Mancini. Mancini makes a move and then skates back, puts it into the blue line, over to Mancini. Skating down to the faceoff shot. He scores. Victoria Mancini put the buck in the net and on the power play with 7 seconds left to go. The Vancouver Conucks have tied this pre-season hockey game. 1-1 the score on a good play by the Vancouver Conucks. Mancini didn’t see anything like puts it back to the blue line and then gets the puck again. Tries the same play and this time he likes what he sees and shoots it short side over the glove through a screen too. Like the Seattle defenseman’s not happy about it. Might have gotten a piece of it, but either way, the Vancouver Ganox have tied the game up. Russell, it’s HSM, not HMS. HSM. Fair enough. I will mess that up again. I promise you that. Boom, says Big Mac. Go, go, go, go, boom. Go, go, go. Man City scored in prepare your chest. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. HMS Fang Girl. Go, go, go, go. KJ Brazy, let’s go. Coach Rob Willie says, “Hi, Patrick.” And Patrick Aline says, “Let’s [ __ ] go.” Swear Jar Calvin Charlie go. No time to relax. We got to keep the score, says Derek. Welcome, Derek. Servin’s like, “Go, go, go, go, go, go.” In prick choice. That was a hottie goal. Xavier Germaine says, “Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.” Big Hog says, “Bang.” Eric Hunter says, “Mancini.” Sensei Dean Y says, “Go.” David W says, “Tie the game.” Thanks to Victor Mancini. Woo! A Chico is blushing at Patrick Alvine. How does it feel to have the same hairstyle as the two greatest Canucks of all time, Mark Messier and Matt Sundine? And then Big Hog’s like go go go. And then Todd Peterson says that was a nice Mancini. That was nice Mancini. Drove that one home. Yeah, good hard shot. Got Almond out there. Losing the face off. They might have changed up the lines here, so I’ll try and keep my eyes on it. But this is probably the result of the line after the power play. Uh Willander plays the puck to the side. Can’t come out with it. Sherwood with an assist on that one, I guess. And a puck goes off of a player and into the stands. Goes from being an object to play with to a souvenir.

Coots plays in the corner. Baines takes his man down. Plays over for Sherwood. Sherwood stops high in the net. He has a look at Coots. Decides not to take him. Ends up keeping the puck while falling. Good work there, but then gives the puck away and Seattle will skate it out of the zone and they’ll be able to get the puck down the ice and start a change after being pinned for a moment after an icing call. Vancouver in behind their own net. Vancini, sorry. DPD playing out for Willander. Willander plays it up the boards, gets intercepted there.

Smitty getting a free gift and membership courtesy of Major Miner. Thank you very much, Major Miner. I appreciate your donation to the stream. Thank you very very much. Looks like we’ve gone to a commercial break. So, let’s hop back over to the bar for a minute. Back to the bar. 1,800 subscribers of Nothing is Perfect. Last year when we did our first preseason game, we only had 150. That’s something I could actually show you guys. Eh, let’s see. You guys want to see what the stream looked like the very very first Nothing is perfect stream because let me tell you it was chaos. WTF whenever the Canucks scored David W types one sentence. I know he doesn’t like writing a lot about the Canucks. Keith go. And Major Minor was also like go go go. And then coach Rob was like go go go. And then Quinn he says at nothing is perfect. What’s your first kuck game? What was your first kuck game? I wish I could remember, but I was very young. The first game I remember watching is the game seven of the 1994 Stanley Cup finals. That’s the first one that I remember, Quinn. But the first game going to Man, I went to a lot of games when I was young. I got pretty lucky. So, I cannot give you an exact one, but I’ve been to a lot of games over the years. And as some people who have been here in the stream remember, I used to sell Connects for Kids 50/50 tickets. So, there was one year where I ended up going to like 35 games in a year or something like that. All right, back to the action. Puck has been dropped. Seattle wins the draw. Bluger pokes it up the halfboards. Vancouver working up to the blue line. Can’t quite get it out. Seattle keeps it in for the moment. That one gets blocked by DPD. He skates to the side.

No. No. We appreciate you. The original sponsor of Nothing is Perfect. Major Miner. Puck goes all the way down the ice on an icing call. Vancouver Conucks will touch it there and the puck will come all the way back down the Seattle zone and we’ll see if they’ll change. Let’s see. It was actually a Seattle game, too. Oh my goodness, people. In the next commercial break, I’m going to show you guys the the very beginning of the very first Nothing is Perfect stream all the way back versus Seattle last year. It actually aired here on this channel 11 months ago. September 24th. It’s almost a full year now. Three days short of a full year for the very first Nothing is perfect stream. And here we are with 1,800 subscribers. This is crazy. Canucks controlling in their own zone. Bank pass behind their own net. DPD plays it up the boards. Puck gets past the Conucks, but they end up picking it up, playing it up to the Seattle blue line. Puck moves on to the court. He aggressively plays it to the corner off the glass. Puck bounces around. Willander backtracking now. It’s a threeon two for Seattle. They end up putting themselves offside and uh did they know looks like Jordan Everlay is the captain of the Seattle Kraken, but that might be an intentional offside. So they might bring it all the way back to the Seattle zone, but and McN is just like go. You need a blunt WTF WTH. Oh, they’re showing some kid. Okay, hang on. Can I do this? What is this? This the one? Yeah. Oh my goodness. [Music] The very first nothing is [Music] [Applause] [Music] looks familiar until it doesn’t. Oh, hello everyone. Here we are live on the stream for the first time. Oh, good golly. Good golly. So crazy. Welcome everyone. Same blue cup though. People here with us. Just getting things started. Uh look at that number. The uh end of the Blue Jays game just happening on the TV. 126 subscribers. Settling in. Uh got a little little drink to get me ready. It’s so funny. And uh we’re going to sit down, watch the Conucks preseason. Uh it’s going to be lots of fun. Let’s jump ahead here a little bit. Isn’t it wild? I I’m pretty sure that times it takes a minute for you to get used to. Let’s see here. Last season, a lack of shots. Let’s see if we can find the very first ever Nothing is perfect goal call. Man, I I hope you’re enjoying Hey, here we go. The Shrek is in the house. What’s up, Shrek? The dreaded cone. Yeah, he is not a fan of the cone. All right, Dobby, you hate that thing. Okay, but it was the first time that he ever got All right, there’s another whistle. I will kill this fly eventually, believe you me. Miss out on doing a hello there. Hello there. Same gob shirt for sure. Yep. We want Dobby. We want Dobby. Oh my goodness. All right. All right. We’ll get some Dobby in here in a minute. Plays back underway. Just past the halfway mark this second period. Kucks tying up the game here in the second period with a beautiful shot on the power play by Oh, and the S Kraken had moved in offside. Ken looking guilty as ever. 14 shots on goal for Seattle, nine shots on goal for Vancouver. Let’s see here. Knocks lose the face off. Seattle jumps through, but puck comes out to center anyways. Leaky plays it to Heedle in the middle. Heedle plays it back for Leraki, but he didn’t see it coming. Couldn’t pick it up. Leracki stops the puck. Put it plays it in behind the net. Hoglander stops there. Hogland was thinking about doing the the Michigan for a minute there. Ends up losing it because he was getting double teamed. Didn’t get enough support. Couldn’t make a play. Seattle skates out through center almost with a three-on- two down low. Shot to the front of the net. And that is a pass to the front of the net and the Seattle Kraken have taken a lead in this game with a pass across after Hoglander loses the puck behind the net. Puck comes all the way down the ice and the Seattle Kraken have taken a 2-1 lead in the second period of play. Yeah, this play starts all the way back in the Vancouver zone or in the Seattle zone unfortunately. And we’re going to see this light the lamp nonsense from the S Kraken. Okay, let’s see. Pass across. Yeah, and it looks like a little bit of a defensive breakdown. Pio Joseph did not know there was a man behind him. And it looks like Leer Mackey wasn’t there either. So Pio Joseph losing his man uh caught in the middle, but he did have a guy. So that probably was Leer Macki’s guy. So we’re not going to blame Pio Joseph. We’re going to blame Leer Mackey and Hoglander. Leer Mackey losing his man on the back check, unfortunately. Oh, Tai Young in the net now, too. Looks like they have put Tai Young in the net. So Tai Young comes in probably for the second half of this game and uh lets in a goal unfortunately for the Vancouver Conucks to be trailing the game two to one now. Yeah, Manscini with the goal for the Canucks. Unfortunate 2-1 game now. 832 left to go in the second period of play. Sad Panda Sheilobs would have saved that says Xavier. Yeah, you’re probably right. Seattle’s cheating. I just know it. Oops. I did I start that. Zodberg hoggy. No. Yeah. She loves is greater than Demco, says Brickfetti. Here comes a paragraph from David. Hasheops back. Yeti knee man 6’4 217 lbs from Finland gets his goal. Coots in behind the net. Baines pressuring as well. Coots comes up with it. Plays it out front for Sherwood. Couldn’t finish it though. Mancini picks it up at the blue line. Rings it around behind. Ends up getting blocked. He’ll pick it back up. Sherwood plays it across. And what is it going to be? A penalty I think against Seattle I believe. But we’ll see. It’s hard to tell. Vancouver’s already had four power plays and they haven’t managed to score yet. Oh no, they did score on the one. I’m a liar. That’s their one goal. But it looks like they might. Oh no, Seattle’s getting a power play. So the Vancouver Canarks have taken a penalty in the offensive zone, which let’s be honest, Adam Foot’s not going to like that. The Seattle Kraken are getting another power play, but the Conucks win the face off. Will Enander plays behind the net. DP rings it around the boards and all the way down the ice. So, a good start to the penalty kill. Mancini taking the penalty. Must have been for holding or hooking or something. But either way, Vancouver penalty number 90 Victor Mancini for holding. It ends up being holding. And it’s a hand. Oh, high stick. So, the faceoff will come outside the zone. The Seattle Kraken high sticking the puck down. So, the play is blown dead. Look at these people getting crazy up in here. Is that what we’re doing? No. These people are chill. They’re just like, I want the headbangers back. Vancouver can’t come up with the pug in their own zone. Played across the blue line. Seattle managed to make a pass the near side boards. Skating down, looking into the middle, back to the blue line, high slot, stepping around the Seattle player, pass the far side, back up to the high slot, back to the blue line, high slot, down to the near boards, cross to the farboards, back to the blue line, down to the near boards into the middle. Shot blocked. Didn’t get all of it, but managed to get a block on it by the Vanc Vancouver Canucks. Managed to block it before it gets there. Puck goes all the way down the ice. One minute left to go Mancini’s holding call. Seattle looking to extend their lead here in the second period of play. We’re going to see a replay now midplay because we’re watching a feed. Oh, it ends up getting blocked by DPD. I don’t think he meant to block it, but he did anyways. And Vancouver managed to work the puck outside the zone. Bluger stepping up. Can’t get a stick on it. Ken moves it across. Seattle throws it on net and Tai Young makes the save, covering it up. No rebound there. 34 seconds left to go on the manini call. and see how Kraken will get another chance to win a faceoff in the Canucks zone. Tay Young making a save after coming to this game in the second period here. As I suspected at the beginning of the game, they did manage to get both goalenders into this game because there is only six preseason games and they have five goalies. So, makes sense. Ken getting tossed out of the draw. Nils Almond will try and win this against Schwarz. Schwarz wins it back on the replacement. Back to the blue line. Canucks manage to get it past the blue line and Seattle have to start from their own zone with under 30 seconds left to go on the power play. Seattle drops in their own zone. Winding up through center ice with speed. Dishes to the side. Good stick there by Shard deflecting it a bit but blocked at the blue line by Seattle. Seattle now working it down the boards into the corner. Walking out front. play to the half boards. Back down low. Back to the halfboards. All the way back to the blue line. Stop there. Seattle plays it back to the far side. Walking down in the faceoff circle trying to play it across and a backhander over T uh Ty Young’s shoulder in close and that might end up being a power play goal. It was very very close to the end of the power play. Either way, power play or not, the Seattle Kraken have taken a two a 3 to one lead here with 615 left to go in the second period to play. Oof, I tell you. Oof. You hate to see it. Light the lamp. Shush. Yeah, puck down low into the corner and then a backhander. Yeah, Schwarz right down to the left hand side of Toapilo and he just backhands it right over Tai Young’s glove. Tai Young does not like that one. I wouldn’t blame him for not liking it. P goes all the way down the ice. The Vancouver Conucks have iced the puck with fifth 555 left to go in the second period. Jaden Schwarz. Whoopsies. Shane Wright and Vince Dunn getting the assists on that one. Knocks win the face off in their own zone. Man, see loses the puck in the corner. Puck out front. Oh, and to Oh, Tai Young had to make a save. I got to get Toola’s name out of my mouth. I always call him Tai Young and I call the guy toil and they’re both TE’s. So, Vancouver looks like they’re on their heels now after letting in that goal. Shot and a goal. Yeah, definitely on their heels as the floodgates have opened up as the Seattle Kraken now score a fourth goal, third goal of this period. Three unanswered here so far and that is a 4-1 lead for your Seattle Kraken. Unfortunate times here in the first preseason game of the year. [Music] Uh toilo got pulled uh because they want to get Tai Young into a game and a one-timer from the top of the faceoff circle and Nean with his second goal of the game basting it on a one-timer past Tai Young. I don’t think he ever saw it. Sorino might have been providing the perfect screen there. And Big Mac just like she loves she loves she loves she loves she loves she loves Big Mac. And Shannon’s like no team tank. Are we tanking for McKenna now? Call off the season. Let’s tank for McKenna. Seattle Gold by Yanni Neman number 84. Kappo Kako with the assist on the one-time to set him up. Kraken seemed to have our uh have our number all. Yeah, I mean we do have a winning record against them in the regular season of play, but it’s close and it shouldn’t be. The announcer can’t even keep up with all these goal announcement in stadium. Canucks trying to turn things around. Joe Le out there causing havoc in the Seattle zone. Sherwood tries to come up with the puck. Can’t. Seattle playing pass in their own zone. Pass all the way down to the Canucks zone. Tipped in. No icing because it got touched. Vancouver plays it out to center. Tipped into the Seattle zone. Vancouver in on the forche. Almond there. Following up is Lebate throwing a hit. Canucks play it back down behind the net. Joe Le can’t come up with a puck there. Seattle plays it to the middle of their own zone and they’ll skate out. Four minutes left to go in the second period of play. Ty Young stops behind his net. Schultz plays it over for Joseph. Canucks carried out through center. Good speed there. Oh, and a offside call there after he made a move at the blue line. The Vancouver Conucks. Vancouver going offside. Boo. Vancouver goes offside. Drew O’ Conor making the extra move at the blue line. You never like to see it. And McN’s like, “Learn the rules. Learn the rules.” Why are you not having a a party party? Yep. [ __ ] says Tyler Mcnite. Batman and Robin, says Todd Peterson. Van will crush Seattle in the regular season, though. I hope so. And Thomas is trying to get a chant going. Coconox glow. Coconox glow. Coconox glow. David W. Things have gotten in uh have gotten in this period ugly fast with two goals. I believe in under one minute to put the Kraken up four to one. Eric Hunter live allowed major all we need is wine. O’ Conor is a bus lefty all round says Logan O’ Conor Lconor by play. Yeah says Mr. Sky Train Alfred got to sleep outside of his crate. They had a little bit of freedom which was nice. I didn’t think it was going to be nice sleeping inside of his crate with a cone on. So, we let him sleep wherever he wanted in the house, which he doesn’t normally get because, as I said, he is a mischievous little bastard. And uh but he got some freedom that night. Now, what are you doing? You’re just sitting there looking at me. What are you waiting for? What do you want from life? Her Vancouver Conucks taking the lead. First intermission. My dog is currently licking my arm. Is there spell? That’s a very underwhelming goal call. Let’s just put it that way. Eric Hunter, well, I’ve been seeing a lot of wine in the chat. Bone deep awaits you. Yeah, no thanks. Look at that. Those eyes out. Eric Hunter, Dominic Soden, Kraken are preseason merchants. Laugh out loud. Yeah, I mean they pretty much have their starting lineup against um two NHL players and a bunch of prospects, so we shouldn’t be all that surprised that the score is so lopsided now. I wonder if they changed their goalie, too, if they left the court in Okconor trying to block a pass across. Can’t Dunn puts it across. Good stick there by Teddy Bluger to block that pass. Puck comes back down in the corner for Seattle. They are absolutely in full control of this game now with just over 3 minutes left to go. Done. Or no, that was not done. Puck comes down into the corner. Bler plays it up the boards. Taking a second there. Pass across the blue line. Braden Coots will rip it in. Oh, but now it’s Victoria Mancini. Kimovic tries to get a puck. Can’t. Knox can’t come up with a puck on the forche. Okconor goes to the bench. Heedle’s out now. Got the Heedle Leer Macki line and Seattle brings the puck in offside. So the faceoff will come outside of the Vancouver zone. Tyler McNight. It’s only a preseason game, but come on. Help the goalie. Yep. Tai Young not getting a lot of help out there right now. Why change goalies in the middle of the game? Question mark. Let the goalies chase the win. Should have kept Telepilo in. Ah, no. I get it. Sky Train. They only have six preseason games to do it. So with five goalies in the system, they needed to get everyone in. So this is pretty much how what you would expect from a preseason game. Changing the goalies midse mid series. Lerian on the forche. Managed to dig the puck free. Dishes it for his teammate. Back to the blue line. Now comes back down into the corner. Hoglander over Leer Macki. Leer shoots it short side. Just misses. Puck rings off the board. Comes out and the puck ends up going off the referee. DPD ends up with a bobbled play. Now DPD plays it over for Willander who plays it up for Mr. Hoglander who plays it across the blue line. Knox will regroup. Now the puck comes over for Heedle. Comes off of his skate into the Seattle zone. He’ll chase it but can’t recover it. And Seattle will play pass behind their own net. The puck coming all the way down into the Vancouver zone now. Seattle battling with Willander bringing it around the boards to the far side. Knucks can’t come over there. Baines was there for a minute. Puck in behind the net. DPDy plays it up the boards off the glass out to the blue line. Conucks can’t get it out. Seattle keeps it in. Now they got a two-on-one down low. Good there. Good uh leg by Kai Young not letting that pass get across. Blocking it, preventing a one-time. Seattle plays the puck down in behind the connect zone. Seattle back. Intercepted by Vancouver. They’ll skate through center. Now we’re going to get a replay here of the Tai Young save preventing that pass from making it across in the middle of play. The Conucks might be scoring a goal now. We don’t know. Puck down low. Seattle intercepts it there. Puck gets past the defense in behind the Seattle net. They’ll pick it up. Play it back there. Now playing cash catch down below their red line. A lighter for check on this play by the Vancouver Conucks. Seattle skates it in and rings it around the boards. Just under a minute left to go in the first or in the second period of play here between the Vancouver Conucks and Seattle Kraken. Kraken turning things on. Vancouver with only nine shots now in the game. Puck is deflected into the front of the net. Backhander ends up going wide. Seattle plays into the corner. Puck in behind the net. Stutter steps back to the blue line across the blue line. Done with a shot to the front of the net. Tai Young makes a save. Puck comes out. Oh, there’s Chase Stillman. Our first Chase Stillman viewing and he can’t get the puck out of the blue line. Puck gets whipped down the ice. Chase Stillman in on a breakway. He gets checked from behind. Will it be a It ends. It’ll be a penalty shot for Chase Silman. The first time I saw him in the game. He bobles the buck in his own zone, but ends up somehow on a breakaway. Gets shot down on the way to the net. Doesn’t get a proper shot off. So, the referees will call that. Yeah, that’s an obvious hook on Vince Dunn right on the hands. So, we’re going to get a penalty shot with 15 seconds left to go. Chase Silman with the opportunity to make this a twogoal game. The boys have gathered at center ice to discuss the chop on the hands. And we get a penalty shot here in preseason hockey. You love to see it. Chase Stillman getting hooked going to the net. And that will warrant LFG Stillman. And then Miner’s like goal, Dobby, goal. And Todd Peterson’s looking ping shot. Yes, it’s Tyler Mcnite. Chase Stillman taking a minute. 15 seconds left to go. The 10th shot of the game. Skating in. Fading right to the middle. Looking shoots and scores. Chase Silman making good of his opportunity on the penalty shot and he puts it right through the five hole after a drag move to the middle and puts it right through the Seattle goalender. Yeah. Fades to the right, cuts the middle. Looks like he’s going to go high and ends up just putting it right through the five hole. Joey Dord leaving that five hole wide open. And the Vancouver Canucks have made it a 4 to2 game, making it a two-goal game. Goal, says Casket Brain. Coconuts go Coconuts go. There’s the red ticket. Yay. Score, says Luke Flyer. Go, says Sky Train Alfred. Go, go, go, says HMS Fang Girl. Chris Martin. Let’s go. Say, hey, Chia, says Sky Train Alfred. Go, go, says Imp Trust. Chica says, “Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.” One second left to go and Major Minor coming in with the dono and that’s the end of the period. Canucks making it a two-goal game right at the end and Major Minor with a donation at the very end there. Back to the bar to getting a free gifted membership courtesy of Major Minor. We appreciate you Major Minor for the donation to the cause. And then Eric Eric comes in with another 10 gifted memberships.

Thank you very much, Eric Hunter, for another very generous donation to the cause. We appreciate you very much here on Nothing is Perfect. You have shown up this season and been an absolute legend. Let’s see here. Okay, let’s get Tyler on the line, shall we? So, we’re in the second intermission now. I guess I should update the scoreboard. I haven’t done that yet. Oh, second. Oh, no. We’re not in the second period. We’re in the second intermission. Well, my name is Russ Holiday. This is Nothing is perfect. And we’re here watching the Vancouver Conucks for Seattle Kraken. And then Major Miner donating $2 to say Eric Hunter accidentally donated 30 memberships. That’s crazy. Thank you very much, Major Miner, for the $2 dono. And thank you very much, Eric, once again, uh, for the donation. See, we can get Tyler on the line here. Try and stop this call, I think. Let’s start a new one, shall we? vehicle. Oh, there it goes. Perfect. Now we got him. Let’s make sure his face fits in the box because we always want to make sure that their faces fit in the Oh, yeah. It’s a big head, but you know, it’s almost as big as mine, so it works. All right, perfect. So, without further ado, from the YouTube channel, The Line Change, Mr. Tyler, what’s up, my dude? Is he frozen? Shut up. Oh, no. No. There he is. He’s good. He’s good. He’s good. Awesome. Well, how’s it going, brother? Nice to see you. Not bad. Yeah, good to see you, too, man. Thanks for having me on. Are you enjoying the game so far? I’m flipping back and forth PlayStation and trying to watch at the pull in Double Duty. So, what are you uh what are you playing on PlayStation? Are you playing Ch? Uh I have uh last 24 hours I’ve been playing a little bit of baseball because you know it’s you know Blue Jays. So but I’ve been like flipping back and forth between the baseball and the hockey. Nice. Nice. Uh sir I guess I mean we can talk a little Blue Jays. Are you pretty stoked about the fact that they have officially clinched a playoff spot? I am stoked, but to win the division, I mean, there’s probably still what, five, six games up in the division still. Uh, last I looked, they were two games ahead of the Yankees. So, their magic number is four. Win four and I think they need to at least lose four, but they need to at least win. So yeah. So it’s looking good for them to to get into the playoffs either way. But yeah, I guess you’re right. Winning the division because you’ll get a buy in the first round if you win your division. Correct. Yeah. Yeah. So Tyler, you’ve been keeping a very close eye. I’ve seen all the videos you’re grinding. If you guys haven’t checked out the line change, make sure you click on the link in the description. Go give him a sub. Go give him a like. He’s out here grinding. He’s putting out more videos than pretty much anyone here on Kucks YouTube. Um, if I have to ask you about all the festivities, the prospect games, the training camp, has there been any player that has really stood out to you as a guy you think is going to be a lock on this roster moving into the 25 26 season? I watched training camp. I was too busy watching the Blue Jays, uh, especially the other day getting their butts kicked. Um, I should have switched over. Uh, but I haven’t paid too much attention attention to training camp, but obviously I think Carlson has a, you know, inside shot making it, you know, with his waiver, you know, situation, whatnot. Um, I really did like how Med in one of those, uh, training camps or actually no, in the prospect game. I thought he looked absolutely fantastic. So, I’m intrigued to see how he does. I don’t think he’s going to make it because, you know, he’s back in in London for the season, but I could maybe him getting maybe a start maybe later on in the season perhaps. Uh maybe more so, although I don’t think he can play in Abbottzford, but I’m very very look looking forward to seeing him in the future for sure. So, he’s definitely someone I’m looking out for. Yeah, I know because they are with the new CBA coming out, I believe they’re making uh essentially very similar to like the WHL and the CHL as the exceptional rule where you can have a player who’s too young for the actual league to come in. So, I believe that is kind of the plan for the AHL where they will be allowed to have one player the age of 19. Um, so, but obviously within the Conucks prospect system, there’s probably a couple guys that might be that guy. Um, do you think maybe Braden Coots would be a guy that might end his season after the WHL season ends to come up and play some time with the AHL Canucks or are you thinking he maybe even has a chance to make this Canucks roster out of training camp? I mean, I think he could have a shot. I do be more beneficial if he, you know, was in the WHO for at least one more season. Um, but I could see get getting a look, you know, at least maybe a few games um in the NHL. You know, just depends on how he does uh during the preseason. But I do think we have an inside track touted he is. But I do think like I said official if he spent another season in the WH learn some more. Um I I think future as well along with Medvidev. So I I’ll be looking out for him as well. From all the reports you saw coming out of training camp, what are your feelings going into the new season about Mr. EP40? Do you feel like he’s the weight he added and everything that he’s done so far uh in front of the media this season? Do you think you have some positive feelings about Pety going into the new season or are you uh still pretty worried about what’s going to happen with him? Uh, I’d say I’m I’m worried about him. Really worried about him, you know, seeing he’s put on, you know, some muscle. Um, you know, from things that I saw like tweets uh for training camp, he was look um so to see how especially when his first preseason game or game that ends up being, I’ll be definitely be focused on him and seeing how he does. I did like his little thing with the uh faceoff ceremony, you know, like bringing the stick up, you know, making making sure that he won that face off. So, um I’m definitely intrigued to see how he does. Um not too worried, you know. I like I think it’s, you know, everyone talks about how like, you know, he wants revenge, you know, but he’s not the only one, you know. I’m pretty sure this whole season, think of one word, it would be revenge, redemption, you know. something along that. It’s the season of redemption for the Canucks. Holander, you got Demco, you got Hedo. So, let’s uh get that revenge and uh get off to a hot start. Yeah. I mean, Demco is a perfect example of a guy who just straight up he’s like, “If I’m playing at my best, I should be team USA’s goalie.” He didn’t even get an invite to their orientation camp this summer for the Olympics. You got to think that with a healthy Demco who is that fire lit under his butt, that’s got to be enough to push the Canucks at least into a playoff spot this season, eh? For sure. And yeah, like I think uh that him, you know, not making that cut, I think that kind of pissed him off uh because he said, you know, that fire in him is is is back and intrigued to see how that is. And I do think him not making that team uh is going to light a fire underneath his ass. And you know, he I think he said it himself, you know, like I’m going to make that team, you know, by like mid-season. So yeah, and I mean that I think that’s the thing for all us Kucks fans is it’s hard to talk about what we think we can expect from Demco moving into the new season until we actually see him play games because so far obviously he only played the the one uh white versus blue game and didn’t let a goal in and and did look pretty good but he didn’t get a lot of um there wasn’t a lot of tests for him out there so far. So, we’ll be able to get a good look at him. Um, moving into the new season with Lanin as his full-time backup. What split do you want to see from the goalending duo? How many games do you want to see Demco play? How many games you want to see Lankin play? Uh, I think I’ve always seen Demco as 50 over 50 and then the rest be lankin. I know. Don’t overdo it. you know, I could maybe even go as far as saying maybe a 6040 split, but at the same time, you know, monitor, you know, the amount of starts he gets and not to do what to last year where he overplayed. Uh, now he obviously didn’t do that with Demco, but he did that with Lankin. So, hopefully Adam Foot has learned from that and doesn’t do make the same mistake, but I could see like a 50 maybe 55 for Demco and the rest being uh Lankin. Yeah, if with the split for last season’s play is anything, then we just we play Lanin for all the road games because he never loses on the road and then we play Demco at home because he never loses at home, right? Then we win 82 games, easy money. I don’t think it’s going to work that way though. No, no, unfortunately that’s reality. Uh, the other thing I wanted to ask you about because first time these players are in front of the cameras with all of our media people and and I do really like some of our media people here in Vancouver, but Quinn Hughes steps up to the mic for his first interview and the first question is, “What do you think about your contract?” Is that going to get in his head this season? Because it’s it’s the Vancouver media. We know they’re going to ask him about it. He’s got a whole year before he can even sign a new contract. And besides the Vancouver media, every time he shows up in any other place, they’re going to ask him about it. Is that going to be a distraction this year or did the Vancouver Conucks experience enough distraction last year that they should be able to kind of sweep that one under the rug? I mean, you never know. It could be a distraction. Now, I know Quinn said, you know, like he doesn’t let that bother him, but when you get asked that so many times, kind of gets to you. Um, especially if Farhand asks him that, like gosh, Farhand up. I hated his every player. I did not like his questions whatsoever. Um, but yeah, know I if I was Quinn, I would probably start getting a little annoyed, especially halfway through the season and you’re still getting asked the same question. Obviously, you’d be slightly irritated and it might, you know, get in your head a little bit, but I do think Quinn has dealt with it perfectly fine. Um, maybe impede a little bit perhaps. We’ll we’ll see. Hopefully, it’s nothing like last year, you know. because we don’t need another one of those. No. No. And I I think it’s one of those things where sometimes when you see the players all in front of the camera and they do get similar questions because, you know, everyone has these similar questions they want to ask. But this year, it felt like there was a very clear message put out in a team chat or a team meeting where anytime anyone asked about last season, the the automatic response is, “We don’t want to talk about last season, we’re going to talk about this season.” Do you think that’s the right mentality moving into this new year? Yeah, I would say, you know, like put last year in the rear in the rearview mirror. You know, last season doesn’t matter. It’s a new season. Um, you know, a lot of crap happened and players want to talk about it. Um, you know, they basically said it was a bad season. Move on. It’s I think it was Pety who even said, you know, like he doesn’t want to think about it anymore. He wants to move forward, move on to the future. And honestly, I I don’t blame them at all for to really talk about it. I know a lot of Connects fans probably don’t want to talk about it either. Um, so yeah, I, you know, last season is in the past. It’s a new season, so no need to talk about it. Now, is there anyone that you’re excited to see through this preseason schedule? Is there a certain player that you just want to get your eyes on um in hopes that you maybe see something for the Canucks future? Yeah, probably Coots. Uh I’m not sure if if Medvadev might get a start during the preseason or not. Uh look him if he does, but I think it’s and some of the uh young guys like Alaxen, he I was surprised by him during the showcase. you know, obviously I somewhat heard of his name, but um you know, seeing him obviously seeing DPD, you know, seeing how how he grows. Uh Willander as well, interested to see him. And I’m also at least for this game to see uh how Heedle plays, you know, considering his health and whatnot. And he’s was looking pretty good uh earlier. So, he’s still got that speed. So, uh, Heedle definitely is another one I’m going to be looking out for. I mean, if you look at it, you could theoretically see that as a second line for the Canucks technically with Heedle, Hoglander, and Leer Macki. I mean, that would take Leer Mackey also making this team. Um, but it does really look like Heedle’s probably going to be that option for that two se. Um, do you think Coots has a chance or do you have to wait and see him play a little bit in this preseason before you make a a call on whether or not he makes the NHL? Uh, I’d probably have to wait and see him play a little bit more. Um, you know, this this is just the first game, so kind of want to, you know, wait it out a bit. You know, have him get, you know, maybe a few games under his belt and maybe see from there. But at the same time, you know, I think got that second line center position on lock unless Coots absolutely like blows our socks off um in the next period or few games. Uh but yeah, definitely think Hedo Coot or Heedle definitely has that on um bar any trade before the start of the season, which I don’t really think is going to happen. HMS fang girl has bad news for you Tyler Mevadev has been sent down to his OHL team so he will not be getting a start in the preseason unfortunately for the Conucks and probably just the result of like we’ve talked about this stream. The Canucks have a lot of goalenders and a lot of high quality goalenders so you won’t get your wish. Well, I’ll just have to watch some London Knights games then. Do the Vancouver Conucks have what it takes to come back in this game? They’re down by two goals going into the third period or are they pretty much done for? Well, they need to get some more shots on. Um like like I think I posted in the chat earlier, this is bonafide kox hockey. You know, not getting a whole lot of shots in in a period. But hopefully uh you know they can get out of this funk uh during the intermission. Hopefully Adam Foot can you know spur them on. hopefully make a comeback something like what my Blue Jays have 46 times this season. So Tyler, I appreciate you joining the show today. It’s an absolute pleasure having you. And like I said, if you haven’t, make sure you hit that link in the description over Tyler’s page. He puts out a lot of content that you want to get. So, thank you very much, Tyler. And enjoy the rest of the game tonight. Thanks for having me on, man. Tyler from the line change stopping by to see what’s good. You love to see it. Thank you very much, Tyler. I appreciate you. All right, they are waving the flag. They the timer has run out and that means it is time for another period of play. Let’s update the first time tonight. This is preseason, so we’re just getting back into the swing of things. But as anyone who knows, I’m Russ Holiday. This is nothing is perfect. And we are back underway um in Seattle. Puck into the Vancouver zone. Get those off the screen there. Vancouver losing the puck in their own zone. Seattle picks it up behind their net. Will Ander battling there. Can’t come up with it. Puck comes squirting to the side. Picked up there by Baines. He plays it out to center. That ends up going off of something. So no icing. So you got Coots. Looks like they might have changed the lanes lines now. You got Coots, Baines, unless they’re midline change. They might be midline change. Either way, Vancouver only has 11 shots so far to 20 for Seattle losing 4-2 right now in third period. I’m Russ Holiday. This is Nothing is perfect. And we are live during every single Vancouver Conucks game. We are currently being spoiled because we don’t normally have the full game. I’m not going to I will not be dishonest to you guys. The preseason is a special time here on Nothing is Perfect because we get to watch the whole game. Vancouver intercepts it. Shot to the front of the net. Rebound. And what a diving save by the Seattle Kraken Goender coming across to make that save. Puck comes out with Schult throwing it to the front of the net causing chaos. Heedle can’t come out with it. Hoglander steps into his man. Vancouver gets it out to center ice. Chips in. Looks like Stillman’s been elevated to the line with Heedle and Hoglander. Does that shot get to the front of the net? Oh no, it never got to the front of the net. So, not a save. It was a block. Pass across the zone as we come back into live action. Blueer plays it up. Pass across for Okconor. Okconor goes over the blue line. Drops the puck. Shot to the front of the net. DP gets a shot on net and the Kraken goender directs the puck over the boards into the netting. And that’ll be a whistle. face off to Kraken’s goalie’s left hand side. Yeah, looks like they might have changed the lines up a bit here in the third period. So, we’ll try and get that updated here for you. 1812 left to go in the third period and they’re showing replays. Maybe a chance there for the Conucks, but we didn’t see it. All right, Seattle dumps it into the Vancouver zone. Puck in the near side corner. Pinned against the board by Will Lander. Bluger’s there. He chips the puck up. O’ Conor tries to get it out. Can’t. Seattle plays it to the middle. Back onto the halfboards. Back to the blue line. Far side. Shot to the front of the net. Goes just wide. Ends up behind the net. Seattle picks it up there. Plays it up the half boards. Good support there by Seattle. Then they rip it in behind the net. Comes all the way to the near side. Puts it down low. Now they put it back to the other side corner. Up to the top of the faceoff circle across the blue line into the corner. Drew O’ Connor tries to take his man out. Can’t. Puck rung around the boards again. Seattle’s managing to complete a full line change looks like here. Now Drew O’ Conor coming out of the corner. Flips it up the boards out to the blue line. Gets past Booger and he gives away. Seattle skates in. flips it in behind the net. Skating onto it up the boards. Cross gets blocked there. Goes off of a leg and out of play with 1658 left to go in the third period of play. Shots are now 20 to13 for the Seattle Kraken leading the Canucks. Got a Mariners fan in the crowd. No surprise there. Mariners winning 73 over the Houston Astros. Big win for them. The shots in goal worry me. Not again. I know, right? Space Invaders, asteroids. Let’s go, Sis Callum. Oh, and Seattle scores right off the face off. Just like that, it is now 5 to2 as they win the faceoff. Shot right off the face off. That goes through Tai Young. [Music] Boo. Kraken hockey. Effing foot is tucket 2.0 or what? So this is footclan hockey. Yeah. See if we can get a replay of this goal right off the faceoff. Skating around the faceoff dot pass to the front and the man gets left all alone. Lost the defensive coverage and Schultz lost his man. And Hayden with an easy tip pass Ty Young right under the glove. and Jimmy Schultz. Give your head a shake, Jimmy. That was not what you want to do out here. This team has few offensive assets. Boo, says Andrew. Potential world champs, those Mariners. No, says Major Minor. Trade Young. He’s too young and has hair still. Laugh out loud. JK. Cousin Vinnie. Come on, fire everyone. Says cousin Vinnie. Well, this sucks, says Mike Torrance. Yeah. And then they force us to watch their [ __ ] celebration. Oh, swear jar. You get some swear jars in the chat. Some swear jars. I’ll put some swear jars in the chat. You have NHL 26? I do have NHL 26. Mr. Quinn Hughes. Vancouver at center. Coot skates onto it, hits his man, comes up with it, jars it free for his teammate, falls into the boards awkwardly, but gets up. Puck out to center. Seattle plays it into the Conucks zone in behind the net. Tai Young stops it there. Bad communication there. The Conucks didn’t know what to do. Tai Young and was going to leave it, but two Seattle players verged on him. Converged on him. Seattle in their own zone. Plays it out into the neutral zone. Flips the puck. Stopped there by Joseph. P. Joseph picks up the puck again. skates down center ice over for Hoglander. Hog with a shot that gets blocked. Big Hog Hockey trying to light the lamp. Schultz back onto the ice, comes up with it, plays it across far side. Heel gets hit immediately trying to dig for the puck. Now Pio Joseph plays it for Hoglander. He picks it up. He skates in, looks across the zone. He gets stick checked from behind. Was looking for the pass. Ends up doing nothing. So yeah, it does look like it is Heedle, Cory Stillman, and Hoglander now on the top line together. So Leer Mackey not on that top line anymore. Let’s see if he’s left the game, but we may have to check that on Twitter to see if Leer Mackey has in fact left the game. Kucks coming in. Heedle puts the puck into the slot. Stillman couldn’t get a piece of it. Drew O’ Conor falls trying to play the puck. Kucks can’t come out with it. And they’ll leave the puck too so they won’t get too many men on the ice. Mancini picks up in his own zone. He skates through center ice. Deaks to the backand loses the puck. Picked up there by Denil Kleovic. He’ll play it in. Stop behind the net by Decort. Seattle plays it up. Loses the puck just inside the Conucks blue line. Many plays it off the boards over for Drew O’ Conor. Drew O’ Conor plays it up for Kleovic. Klovich puts it all the way down the ice on his own side of center. And so that’s going to be an icing call. Can we get some uh let’s get some rule books in the chat. Learn the rules. Vancouver can’t be out here not knowing the rules. Quinn Hughes, why do you did you buy us? You’re saying that Kachchuck brothers are better than us three. I’m not saying that. I would never say that. Why did you buy it? So, you’re saying Kachchuck brothers are better than us three? Oh, because I bought NHL 26. Learn the rules. Learn the rules. Learn the rules. Learn the rules. I did buy NHL 26. You guys told me to. And Todd was like, “Zip it, zip it.” Tucked to the slot, shot to the front of the net. It looks like they Seattle player got hit in front of the net. Was actually saving it from going his own net. Whoops. Vancouver’s Okconor plays the puck out. Luger skates onto it, pokes into the corner. Cleovic gets a piece of it, can’t stop it fully. Seattle plays the puck out to center. Intercepted there for a moment by Jo Connor but he loses it. Now Bluger playing defense plays it out. Shot to the front of the net. Joe Joe Leate playing Alex Burroughs or weighing Alex Burrow’s old number 14. The puck goes around the boards and all the way out. So there is Leer Mackey I believe. So Leer Mackey has not left the game. Coots drops it for Leer Macki. Leer Macki shoots to the front of the net. Goes wide back to Joseph on the blue line. He brings it around the board. stopped behind the net by uh is that Almond or Coots? Can’t see. Oh, it’s Almond. Almond drops to the blue line over for Schultz. Schultz puts it in behind the net there for Almond. Almond plays it over for Leer Macki. Leer Macki back to the blue line for Schult. Schult puts it in the front of the net. Block goes wide. Kucks picks it up. Skate up the boards. Almond tries to put it in the middle. Ends up chipping down into the corner for Leer Macki. Leer Macki skates up the near side boards. Puts it across for Joseph. Joseph puts it over for Oh, into the front of the net. The Bucks have scored. Quick play down low. So quick I couldn’t even keep up with it. Their go for making it a twogoal game. Once again, they aren’t going away, folks. Don’t turn your TV off yet, bro. Nothing is perfect. Do you have Madden or college football? I do not. Puck down low. Good pass by Lebate right out front and the Vancouver Conucks have made it a two-goal game once again. 53 the score in the third period. 1235 left to go. So you’re saying there’s a chance. Boo. We need Zed back. Big Zed. Yeah, I miss him. Go. And then Cavi Charlie’s like, “Go, go, go, go, go, go.” And then Pic is like, “Go, go, go, go, go.” And then Todd’s like, “Cat, cat, thought little or we dash. Oh, go go go go.” Sensei’s like, “Woo!” And then Incre’s like, “I miss Big Zed.” And then Big Mac’s like, “Go, go, go.” Boom. Go, go, go, go. World Cup, Stalling Cup, go through the Kachchucks. Oh, wow. H to the front of the net. Major Minor donating another gifted memberships for the goal. JL getting the free gifted membership from Major Minor. Thank you very much for the donation. We appreciate you. Chris Martin’s here and he’s like, “Let’s go.” HMS Fang Girl’s like, “Go, go, go, go, go.” Todd Patterson’s like cat cat [ __ ] foot [ __ ] foot [ __ ] foot hey say hey cha and then Thomas is like goal dobby gobby go dobby gold gobby uh nails almond with a goal assisted by number 14 Joe Leate that’s good to see into the zoneed cuts back loses the puck though Hoglander pressuring his man ends up losing the puck to him but the Canucks take it in their own zone. Playing out Seattle offside so they’ll have to touch up. So the Vancouver Conucks will have a minute. Sorino out there with Victoria Mancini. Pass across the zone. Heedle brings it in offside. It looks like the linesman may have missed that one, but we’ll just keep on going. I don’t think there is replays in the preeason. And so the puck goes all the way down the ice. And that’s going to be an icing call against the Seattle Kraken because they’ve clearly forgotten how to play the game. Oh, look. It’s KJ Brazy Squared waving his hands. What’s up KJ Brazy Squared? And then on Eric Hunter again dropping another five gifted membership. Fat Melo, not that Shaq Shafi, Firefighter Perez, Nathan Fernandez, Josh Bulma, all getting free gifted memberships courtesy of Eric Hunter. Thank you very much, Eric Hunter, for the very generous donations to Nothing is perfect today, brother. you’re going to put my dog through college 100%. And Keith is like go go go go cuz Keith’s a little bit behind on the stream. And then Seattle’s goalender dives across and covers it up. I don’t think it’s Joey Decord anymore in that is it? It is not Joey Decord in anymore. Number 39 for the Seattle Kraken. All right, let’s go back to the bar for a second. Take a minute to breathe. Okay, we’re good. We’re good. All right, I’m Russ Holiday. This is nothing is perfect. Locked on Conucks. Good problem to have. Mancini being better than Willander. Yep, at the moment. Yeah, 100%. And then KJ Brazy III is also here saying salutations all what’s up KJ Brazy III. Chris Martin, too bad Huggy ain’t playing yet. Uh, we’ll get to see him. Uh, nothing is perfect.

I should let everyone know I will not be streaming all the games like this. Most of the time it’ll be like this, but we are here live during every single Vancouver Conucks game. So, I appreciate you all being here tonight. Derek in the chat, no time to relax. We need to keep up the score agre. Okay, you guys are calling for Dobby. Let’s go get Dobby. All right, I’ll be right back. The people want you. This is Dobby, everyone. For everyone who’s new and doesn’t know what’s going on. Oh, he is such a sweet little monkey. He is so sweet.

There is even a Dobby emote as you can see that everyone is now using. Okay, let’s get back to the action. Oh yeah, go ahead, Dobby. Okay, Dobby’s gone. Let’s get rid of this and this and this and then we’ll go like this and we’ll get back into it. Canucks break in. Ah, and a good shot by Drew Oconor gets blocked. Going to the corner. Conucks with some good pressure. Puck up to the halfboards. Schultz pinches in. Drew O’ Conor takes it behind the net. Watching the puck in between his legs. Bluger comes into support. puts the puck back to Blue. Ends up getting deflected out. He skates back to center to pick it up. Out through center. Drew O Connor with some speed right down the slot. Shot to the front of that. That one goes off a stick and just wide. Drew O’ Conor first one onto the puck. Denil Kleovic tries to come up with it. I’m going to get this fly eventually. Trust me. Trust me. 10 minutes left to go. Halfway through the third period of play. 5-3 the score. Seattle leads. Canucks have managed to put some more shots on net, which is good to see. They’ve got seven shots in this third period. Pass across the zone. Lacermacki skates onto the errant puck. He skates up, ends up getting the puck poked away from him, but he keeps it in, but tries to put it down low. Ends up going off his shin pad and bouncing out to center ice. Mo picks it up in his own zone, flips it all the way down the ice. Vancouver Conucks were going to be first onto it. So, Kako comes out and grabs it. puck. Uh, no look. Backhand pass to the slot gets by Almond in the Seattle Kraken. Skate it down into the connect zone. Willander back for it. Plays it over for Almond. Almond stops in the corner. Spins. Loses the puck. Seattle puts it right to the lop. And luckily there was no one there. DPD now on the rush. Gets the center. He’ll flip the puck in. Vancouver Conucks will change. Seattle out through the neutral zone. pass ends up going into the corner on the near side. Seattle picks it up there, skating in behind the net, spinning up into the slot. Shot gets blocked. Vancouver picks it up, playing it all the way out to center ice. Tipped away from Sherwood. Baines is there to support though and he comes up with it. Stealing it in the zone and then the puck stops on him with some bad ice probably there and he loses it. Now Seattle’s back in threeon-one to the front of the net and good back check there by the Vancouver player coming back to prevent that. Now Vancouver’s coming back up the other way. Twoon one. Sherwood takes a shot and Capo Kako makes the save. H is it Capo Kako? Oh it’s Coco Coco, not Capo Kako. My goodness. Learn the rules. Rusty Lebate is a goal away from a Gordy. I know. Eh, he’s got an assist. He’s got a fight. Now all he needs is a goal. Hi Jessica, welcome back. You arrived just in time to see Dobby. Oh my god, Eric Hunter. Let’s go. Dono hype baby. Huge dono hype. Salutation to you too, says Todd. Nothing is perfect. Play the goal song when we score. I can’t. Quinn Taylor bets Willander is starting to learn how to play in the NHL. We all know Mancini has had that for years. Correct. Yeah, he’s had more time and um I’ve seen the comparison drawn between Willander and DPD from last year whereas like DPD showed up and the transition between Europe and North America for DPD did take a minute for him to get used to the smaller rink. We can get to back to the bar for a minute here because we’re watching some troll do some things. Um, so yeah, DPD coming over from Europe in training camp last year was really tough for him to get used to the new surface. It’s going to be similar for Willander because he is no longer going to be the best player on the team that he’s playing for, right? So Willander playing college doesn’t have the same feel as you would get from an NHL game. So I would not be surprised or upset to see Willander go and spend some time down in the AHL with Mr. Manny Mohotra and all those wonderful development coaches down there. Uh because it seems like every player that they touch in the uh in the AHL comes up and is ready to go. So, let’s expect Willander to be playing in the AHL to start this year. That’s all I’m saying. It might happen, it might not happen, but you never know. Don’t fall in love with assets. Uh big trades coming. Oh, Semina thinks big trades are coming. Interesting. Mancini is a stud. He’s pretty good at hockey also. He at Jessica. All right, get rid of these and let’s get back into the action here. Seattle through over the blue line. Good interception there. Back check by Big Hog Hoglander. Then they give it up at center ice. Unfortunately, Heedle plays it down to the blue line. Gets chipped into the zone. Hoglander trying to get in on the fore. Can’t get there quick enough. And Seattle plays it all the way down the ice. Rolling puck. Good weight on that one. So Mino tried to let it go, but it’s not going to be quite enough for icing. Seattle intercepts it at the Canucks blue line. Shot to the front of the net. That one goes over the net off the boards and out. Vancouver picks it up. Stillman dumps it into the corner. Moves in on the forche. He gets stopped though, so they’re probably going to call that one interference cuz Stillman chips the puck past the man. Tried to get in and the Seattle player stepped into his way. So, it looks like one of the Seattle players might be going to the penalty box. Vancouver getting another power play here. But last time I said there was going to be a power play, I got it wrong. So, no. Vince Dunn grabbing his man. Copyright this girl. Agreed. We had to. We’re going to lose him anyways. Dobby Dobby Dobby Dobby. And Jessica’s like, “Oh my god, hi Dobby.” Yeah. So, done stepping. Oh, no. It was Larson. Number six Larson for Seattle. Kraken stepping into Stillman who chipped the puck past and we got Coots out on the number one power play unit. We get to see Braden Coots, Kleovic, and Baines. And then Sherwood. So we are going at the one defenseman set here. Coots gets waved. So Sherwood will come in to take the draw. Kimovic in right behind him. Oh, and the puck was dropped not fairly there. That actually was the referee, the linesman winning it for Seattle. Kimovic stepping up to throw a hit, playing defense. Couldn’t get a full piece of the man. Seattle dumps it in behind the Conucks net. So, Mancini, the one defenseman on this power play set with Coots Cleovic um on the first power play. Baines as well gets it through the blue line, skates onto it, brings it around behind the net. Puck comes all the way back to the blue line, picked up there by Coots. Coots puts it down low into the corner for Sherwood. Sherwood puts it back to Coots on the blue line. Coots skates down the board. It’s looked to the front of that shot. Goes off of something in front. Bounces right back into the faceoff circle and Seattle will get it all the way down the ice with 115 left to go on this power play. Vancouver looking to make it a one-goal game. Shots are getting closer to being even. 22 shots now for Seattle, 20 for Vancouver. Vancouver with nine shots in this period. Pass out to center. Heedle through center ice. drops it. Pass across the blue line. Good work there by Willander. Nice move to play it off of his own skate. Pick it up and ring it around the boards. Schulz out there now. So, we got two defenseman. Puck into the corner. Seattle plays it up. Leer Macki knocks it down. Plays it in behind the net. Hoglander has the puck go past him. Play it all the way out to center ice where Schult picks it up. He’ll play it far side for Leer Macki. Leer Macki now plays it across off the skate of Schultz. Schultz throws it around the boards, comes around for Leer Macki. Laki rings it back the other way. Stopped in the corner there by a couple players. Hoglander fighting for it. Heedle’s there to support. Rings it around the boards. Schult plays it across for Leer Maki. Back to the blue line. Back to Leeraki with a one-time saved by Kako or Coco. The Seattle player falls inside his own zone. Willander picks it up. 10 seconds left to go. They might have a chance for one more rush, but it looks like they’re probably not going to get it as they turn back in their own zone. And they’re just going to complete the change, play it safe, and DPD drops it into his own zone, making sure we got two defenseman out there. Puck rung in, stopped partially by the Seattle Goalender. Back to the blue line, picked up by Seattle. And they’ll skate out through center, playing it to the middle with speed over the blue line, dished to the side on the far side, back in front and tipped just wide. DP is there to collect it. Puts it out front and the puck gets chipped on that. Tai Young aware of the situation and uh just like that. Oh snap. You’re not even getting it. You’re getting the playbyplay. Okay, we did our first time of not being aware of what’s going on. Game visual. Sorry. $2 dono for major minor. Show the screen, bro. Game visual. I’m sorry, guys. Look at that. You’re getting a great playbyplay though, right? No video of the game. I’m sorry. Screen, homie. The dabs for you, Quinn. I bet Dobby likes calamari. Calamari. Dobby’s never had calamari, but I bet you he would like it. Show the screen. I’m sorry. Can you show the screen? I can now. Can you show the screen, buddy? Brother, we can’t see the game. Okay, you can now. It’s okay. We were having a great time watching you, Russ. Still had to hype the calls. Yep. Woof woof. Cats. Oh. Oh, we made it. Chris Martin laughing and crying. Major hype plus the game already. Play the game already. I’m sorry, Ken. Uh, la crying. Calvin’s just out here. Major minor hype. Big Mac hype. Call it Mson on the replay. Big Mac hype calls. Someone call Russell and tell him to show the screen. Either way, you have a beautiful face, but we are missing the action [Laughter] or like the yetis. Uh, there it’s like five pages of chat he hasn’t read. That’s how far behind he is. Yes, I’m very far behind. I trade magic bean for McTavish. I would trade magic beans for Metavage as well. Have you been banned? anyone from your Have I banned anyone from my stream? I have not permanently banned anyone. I’ve not permanently banned anyone, but I have given people long timeouts. Better third period. Yeah, they have stepped up the shots now. It’s only a two shot difference. Canucks are also up to 31 hits to So, the Conucks have 31 hits to Seattle’s 14 hits. So, a big lead there. Puck deflects off a stick and into the Seattle bench. Faceoff will be just outside the Seattle blue line. And O’Brien for Seattle looks like he’s 12 is okay. At least you weren’t naked. I know. Can you imagine? Uh, speaking of which, why is Dobby always unclothed on the stream? He is a nudist. That’s what it comes down to. There we go. Russ, I’m sorry. Chris Martin Major Miner’s having a good laugh. Thanks for the donos. C. Donos gets the point across. Sometimes it is, you know, they highlight them. I don’t want to watch these freaks. He’s definitely a naturalist. Yeah, 100%. Vancouver clears it out all the way down the ice and that will be icing against your Vancouver Conucks. Seattle Kraken will get a chance to get a face off deep within the Canucks zone. Vancouver will not be able to change because they clearly don’t know the Do you have a playoff towel? I do have a playoff towel. Have to find them though. It’s not the playoffs yet, so I don’t have them out. Definitely going to need that towel in advance. Timeouts were used to them. Yeah, we’re we never got timeouts last year. Knocks played out to center. Boys gather for a rugby game for a minute. Seattle gets the puck into the Canucks zone. Bluger puts the puck up the boards. Ends up getting just outside the blue line. Now gets chipped out to center. Vancouver plays in the middle. Joseph P. Joseph gets to center and he’ll ring it around the boards. We don’t have to ban people. Not after we what we did to Mr. Fuji. #justice for Fuji. Another $5 dono coming in for Big Mac. Thank you very much, Big Mac for the $5 dono. We appreciate you. Knocks through center. Hoglander skating onto the puck. Can’t get it though. Heedle also skates by the puck. Seattle now brings it out. Four of them to center and a shot goes just wide on the backand. That one might have even gone off a post wide. Seattle recovering the puck. Sherwood can’t battle his man for the puck. Seattle plays it back to the blue line across it to the near side down low in behind the net. Seattle plays it back up the boards. Hoglander pushes his man out of the blue line and hopes that it’ll help. Now Hoglander throws a reverse hit, comes up with the puck. He’ll play it out to the blue line. That one gets kept in there and the Seattle Kraken plays the middle. Ty Young with a kick save. Puck goes to the side. Good, good reaction save by the Seattle uh by Tai Young. Hoglander shoots it in right past the ear of the Seattle goalender. Then rings around the boards. Picked up there by Pio Joseph into the back. Vancouver plays it back to the blue line. Schultz plays it. Good move there by Cleovic to the front of the net and the goalender fell for a minute but he couldn’t get the rebound. Cleovic gets the puck from Leraki. Leraki gets it back from Kleovic. He gets hit. Tries to play it down low. Can’t get it to go. Seattle plays it high off the glass all the way out to center ice. Picked up by there by the Vancouver Conucks. My first console was the NES. Quinn Hughes, did you have an NES? The NES is the Nintendo Entertainment System, the OG one. Vancouver controlling now. Coots with a shot to the front of that gets blocked. He plays it in the corner. Canucks play it up to the halfboards then back down low across to the far side corner. Baines falls in the corner but manages to play it. Cuth plays it out front for Kovich. Klovich gets a shot on net but it gets blocked and ends up coming all the way down the ice. Looks like the Vancouver Conucks have pulled the goalie with two minutes left to go. Six players onto the ice trying to make it interesting out here. Okconor gets it into the Seattle zone, but they pick it up. Plays it behind their own net. They’ll take a minute. They’ll play it down to center ice. Seattle chips it all the way down in behind the Canucks empty net. Vancouver plays pass behind their own net. Canucks start out of their own zone. Drop pass into the Canucks zone. Stumbled from Sherwood, but he keeps on going. Plays it up to the blue line. Good entry there by Mr. Okconor. Drew O’ Conor plays it down for Sherwood. Sherwood throws a hit, but they can’t come with it. Now the Conucks fall in their zone, but managed to pick the puck back up. Shot to the front of the net. Goes off the goender and into the corner. Seattle Kraken play the boards and it looks like what do we got? Is that a Seattle penalty? Maybe a Seattle penalty. The shots are now tied. The shots are 24-24. The Conucks only have four assists on three goals. Apparently, the referee is calling a minor against number 17 on Seattle. A minor penalty. So, the Conucks are going to have a sixon four power play with the goalie pulled. They may even pull uh pull a reverse Rick Tocket and actually use their timeout, but we’ll see what happens. We’ll see what six players get onto the ice as well. Yeah, 127 left to go in the third period of play. Oh man, what? Um, N64 all day is big mac and your miners just like eggplant eggplant eggplant eggplant. PlayStation one for the win. Fuji got life. I know, right? Hashtag justice for Fuji. 250 in chat.

Yeah, this Oh, Vancouver wins the draw, but does it so well that it ends up going all the way down the ice. Minute 20 left to go. Goalie pulled. Power play. Six on four. Vancouver slowly through center ice. Drop pass into their own zone. Pass across the red line. Heedle passes across the blue line. Puck gets deflected at the last second at the blue line. And that’ll put the Conucks offside. Unfortunate. My first console was an Atari. That is old school. KJ Sure is cherrypicking live out loud. Yeah, just a little bit. Sometimes you need some cherry-picking. My first console was the Nintendo DS Light. Interesting. Canucks lose the draw. Seattle puts it off the glass and get a favorable bounce right to the middle. Seattle player takes a shot at the empty net, but it ends up going over the net, off the glass behind the net. Under a minute left to go in this game. Vancouver drops the puck at center.

Back down to Sherwood on the halfboards. Pass to the front. Hoglander tries to deflect it. Can’t get it to go. Shot to the front of the net. Gets deflected as well. And that’s it. That’s all. The end of the game. Unfortunate. Vancouver Conucks falling in their first game of the preseason to the Seattle Kraken. 5 to3 is your final score. Unfortunate, but to be honest, Seattle team was much better and he should have. They absolutely should have won this game. So, let’s just put it that way. We’ll take it as a moral victory because we almost came back in a game against a full NHL roster. So, we’ll call it that at least, right? All right, let’s get back to the bar. We don’t need to see them celebrating. We’re going to do a postgame show now, guys. So, let’s get Dustin on the line to wrap everything up that happened tonight. Oh, the Kraken defeat the Vancouver Conucks. Preseason doesn’t matter, right? No, it doesn’t. Good game, says Zack McN. Tank for McKenna. Leer shows a dangerous release of his shot though. Yeah, that was a good shot at the end there, too. Good shot at the end. All right, first star is Dobby, second star is Big Mac, third star is Archer Sheilops. I like it. Well, let’s not keep the people waiting. Dustin Boyell back in the house, brother. How’s it going? I am fantastic. How are you? I’m good. Uh, looked like the boys did a pretty good job of picking things up. Oh, well, hang on a second here. Eric Hunter with a $20 dono. Don’t put yourself in the porehouse. Eric, another $20 dono. We appreciate very much, Eric Hunter. You’ve been actually crazy generous. You’re trying to take out uh the number one sponsor of the so show, Dustin Bell, who’s currently on the screen. So, how does that make you feel that someone’s coming after your job title, Dustin? You know what? Takes the pressure off of me. I can focus more on hockey analyst uh duties. And uh you know, Eric is there in chat to take care of uh our loyal followers um and loyal subscribers. I mean, good on you for I mean, seeing 1,800 on the screen is just wild. Yeah. Um when you pulled up that clip of the first ever show you did, um I wasn’t I wasn’t far behind for kind of helping helping you fill in time in the intermissions and stuff. And from time to time, you look back at those first uh episodes of Rusty and Dusty and us looking at our screens and not looking into the cameras and just how awkward we were with our fill words and just trying to find a flow. But it happened really quickly between the two of us finding a natural chemistry. Um, so it’s been uh been a wild ride and it’s only just been one season and I can’t wait for the rest of this season. Um, you know, thanks again to everyone out there in chat. Uh, 250 people watching at the end of the game. Like it’s just incredible what you’ve been able to build. Uh, and I’m happy to be along for the ride. We always get that little sneak preview and that’s kind of where the first pop off happened last preseason and we’ll maybe have a look at that one uh in the next game. But yeah, being able to show these games is a huge part because obviously kucks.com multi-million dollar organization almost a billion dollar organization cannot figure out how to put a stream up that people can find. And so I know the secret uh it’s called Reddit and uh but not everyone’s on Reddit. So I will provide that service. Hacho using uh his membership message. These uh they’re getting the L’s out of their system before the season starts. High five, Hico member for nine months now. Thank you very much, Aico, for being a member for nine months for the channel. Tough Tai Young, eh, coming in middle of the game and and a lot of people were asking about that. Why did Tai Young come in mid game? And I kind of gave the answer, but what do you what do you think? Yeah, I I mean it’s just a matter of trying to get these guys back into game shape. Like it’s not a matter of like, oh, throwing him to the Wolves, he’s cold. Um it doesn’t really matter when the goals that are beating him are like guys wide open in front and absolute defensive blunders. Um Tai Young had no help the second he got into this game. Um all the goals that beat him were defensive mishaps. I was looking kind of at the breakdowns um and you could see it it’s not the more veteran guys that are having issues. It was uh I think um let me see here uh Sawyer Mo having some issues. Uh Jimmy Schult and uh PJ really not clicking together out there uh especially in that second period. Um the Seattle Kraken obviously um iced a very NHL veteranheavy roster. Um so they should have won this game for it to be 53 and as close it was it was I mean it says a lot that the Canucks came out in the third period and still pushed as hard as they did. Um a young team uh mostly guys destined for the AHL. A couple guys probably going back to junior. Um but really good stuff out of the fourth line to push and and get one there. Oman from Lebate. Uh a nice goal and some pressure late. Um the power play uh with the goalie pulled. I was kind of in and out in the second and third periods. Um just doing dad stuff. But from the stuff I caught um you could see things that were going to be expected in this game. the issues defensively in our own zone. A whole bunch of guys learning new structure. Obviously, the veteran guys are still in Pentictton working on drills, working on that system that Foot wants to implement. So, really not a huge look into what the Canucks are going to be like this season. It this game was really just about getting some young guys a look at pro action. uh getting a couple young goalies some game time to get back into shape after a summer off and you know really just see what they have in some of their youth. And I think a couple of guys really showed out well um tonight that uh you know Mancini for one showed he is way above Wheelander in the depth charts. Um and really is ready to just start the season in the NHL. Um and I harped on that all through the Calder Cup finals that this kid was a man playing with boys. He did not belong in the AHL and was an absolute uh embarrassment of riches uh for the Abbisford Canucks to have him down there for that run and to be running their power play through the playoffs. Um he was just an absolute dynamite uh addition to that team for that run. So I I absolutely see him being on the on the big club to start the season. Uh you can see the way he moves the puck with his with his feet. He’s smart. He’s quick. Uh he is physical which we love to see. So Mancini had a really great game tonight. I I really liked the game Coots had and it says a lot that he hasn’t been sent back to junior right away. Um all of those guys, their seasons are starting. So that’s why Medvidev was sent down as one of the first cuts. But for Coots to still be up with the team, you did hear um when Foot and Alvine and Rutherford were talking that they were already early impressed early with some of the young guys um from prospect camp and going into regular camp. And I think one of those guys was probably Braden Coots or Brandon Coots. Braden. Brandon. I’m having a brain. Yeah, sorry. I had a major brain fart there. Um, Braden, Aiden, Aiden, Jaden, I don’t know, right? Millennials. I I really think he showed well in this game how he slows the game right down as soon as the puck is on his stick. It’s almost like it uh changes speeds instantly. You can see it. He’s poised. He doesn’t panic. He he looks for the open guy or he gets it to the front of the net. and you know, the second the puck is on the other team’s stick, he’s busting his butt to get back and uh looking to be defensively responsible in his own zone. So, um you know, really showed that he could keep up well already. So, we’ll see if he gets a couple more looks uh in preeason, but the longer he stays with the the Canucks and doesn’t get sent down to junior, the more it tells me they’re taking a serious look at having this kid in the NHL where they think he he may not get the best development going back to junior right now. I think some people probably won’t like this comparison that I’m about to make, but after watching him through training camp and the prospect games and now this preseason game, I’m starting to get Pey vibes like young Pey from Coots, right? Cuz Petey when he first came like it was the same thing. The agility and the speed that he displayed and the ability to use that speed and agility to slow the game down because people had to respect what his legs could do. That’s kind of what I’m seeing from a Braden Coots who is also taught uh talked about as a very good 200 foot center. So all of a sudden the boy who got the legs that all the guys from training camp, all the media guys are talking about how good Braden Coup’s legs are. Um I mean you might not be excited about that comparison right now, but let let me tell you, young Pety was an electric player to watch. If we can see that through this preseason, I think the Vancouver Conucks going to have a really tough time setting him back down to his junior team. Oh, 100%. And they talk about the maturity and the leadership qualities similar to Bo Horvat and how he is already, you know, seems like a man in a boy’s boy’s uh body. So, for all of those things to be said about him and then for him to show up at his very first NHL training camp and look like he immediately fits in at the NHL level really speaks to um you know, him putting uh putting on the show that we, you know, weren’t really expecting. We didn’t know what to expect because the Canucks sort of went off the board when they picked them. We didn’t really know um much about him other than the leadership qualities and and everything that his uh WHL coach had to say about him. But absolutely uh delivering on those promises that uh we were given as as fans. Yeah. I wanted to go back and quickly chat again about uh Will Ander because um and the comparison has been drawn to him and DPD last year because DPD showed a lot of things and and you talked about this a lot last year about DPD is for him it was the adjustment from the European ice to the North American ice. For for Willander it’s the adjustment to playing with guys that are as fast and as talented as he is if not more. So and and you see those skills. Yeah, he made one amazing play. It was a terrible pass behind him, uses his back skates, kicks it through his own legs, brings it up to his stick, and then in one motion makes a pass as well. So those tiny little moments that you see within the game with a guy like Willander, his ability to push the play. Um, obviously going down and spending some time with Malhotra and that training, uh, that amazing coaching staff down there in Abbottzford, that’s pretty much going to be the plan moving forward. I would assume I think it’s the safest plan with him. Um, I as much confidence as the kid has and thinks he he is ready to go straight into the NHL, I think a couple of these uh preseason games will probably humble him quickly. Um, it won’t take much in the video room to show him a couple awful turnovers tonight. Um, and also not really reading the play correctly when the when it’s coming down into into the defensive end. Um, but yeah, he shows the the the brilliant skill that he has. is he absolutely shows it when he gets the puck on his stick or when he needs to get out of trouble. Um the issue is he he’s not quick enough moving the puck yet at the NHL level or the pro level rather. Um having come out of NCAA where it was, you know, easy for him to get around guys or uh pass around sticks um and avoid the the forcheing uh forwards at the NCAA level. So, I mean, I would love to see him go down for a month or two and work with Mal Holtra because the quick work they did with developing DPD and getting him ready for the pro level of hockey. Um, the skill that Weer possesses is far and above what DPD has. And don’t get me wrong, I love DPD and everything he brings to the table, but Wheelander is a totally different beast. And uh I don’t think it would take long at all to get him in the right mentality of you have to earn it every shift, every every game at the NHL level. And that’s what propels you from the college level to the NHL level. And we saw that, you know, way back when with Chris Tanv when he came out of college. And we were like, who’s this guy? And he just threw everything he had at every play. uh took the big hits in the corners, uh blocked every shot, was an absolute warrior, and uh laid everything he had on the line every shift. And we were like, who the hell is this kid? And it looked like he was shot out of a cannon. And that’s what we need to see from Wheelander. He needs to go kind of take a month in the AHL, be like, okay, this is what it is. This is the speed. Give me a shot back with the big club, and let me see what I can do. Yeah. Yeah. Was there anyone else that you want to see more from over the course of the the next five games that we see in the preseason? Um, I really want to see what Carlson is going to do in the preseason this year. I I think it’s kind of his last kick at the can and I really think it is his shot given that they have kind of penciled him into Dakota Joshua’s role as that uh front of the net. Clean up the garbage goal guy. Uh can be utilized on the penalty kill. Can also be utilized on the second unit power play. Maybe even the first line power play if he’s doing a good job in front of the net. uh he really came a long way in the last half of the season um with Abbottzford last year and and showed that he’s ready to make that leap and I think a lot of that comes from the coaching of Mel Holtra and and his crew. um he turned this organi uh the farm organization around um in one season and took a lot of guys like Cleovic, Carlson, Baines, some of these guys who were question marks for so long in the last, you know, 2 3 years of their development. All of a sudden, we now have tons of these guys ready to just burst through the door and and if they take the reigns, they can run with it. um they’re all going to be given that chance this year given the run they had in in Abbottzford and and bringing that Calder Cup home and I just really hope that uh Lenus Carlson and uh even Max Sassin, guys like that really just go and run with it. I want to see Ratatu get into some games here. Um, those are the guys that I’m ready to see in the preseason to see if they really have stepped their game up a notch and have that hunger after that win to try and achieve that at the NHL level because those are the guys that are really going to have to show out. Um, because they’re all kind of fighting for the same spots and there’s some really good young talent that we saw in this game that is nipping on their heels. uh first game of the year in the preseason where we actually have a three-star selection in Seattle in a 5-3 win. Um I know you probably have literally no idea about who you would choose for in this, but I mean I’ll give you the the sneak preview is that it is all three players are Seattle Kraken. Shocker. Yeah. Uh I’ll just give them to you because I’m I’m not going to force you. Like it’s too early in the year. No, I mean one of them is probably going to be Neman because he got two goals tonight. First star, two goals. Um Vince Dun had three assists, so they gave him the second star of the game. And then Capoako also had two assists. So all multi-point nights for these three guys. They all get onto the board. If you were going to give a three a star, let’s say the third star out to a member of the Vancouver Conucks, is there someone who stood out enough that you think they would have been able to dethrone uh the hometown bias that is the three star call in uh Seattle? I think probably Mancini was really the standout Canuck for me tonight um on that whole team. I think uh he showed that he’s ready to go and and showed up for camp in uh in good shape and I I really think he was probably the best Vancouver Canuck on the ice overall tonight um from start to finish. Well, I’ll bring this up to uh for the viewers. So, this is the Canucks defense for tonight. Uh so, Tom Willander, no nothing. So, he’s 21 minutes played. Not bad, right? Clean sheet. I’ll take that. Pio Joseph minus two had one assists. DPD clean sheet. Perfect because DPD and Welllander they were a pair. So that’s perfect. But Mino minus two. Schultz was a minus3. So rough night for Jimmy Schultz. He is definitely headed to uh the AHL. And then Victoria Mancini here. Uh did get the Are they calling that a Oh, no. It is a goal. Okay. They did call it a goal. Was a minus two. We’ll call it a minus one because it was a power play goal. know it still doesn’t count, but um nice to see Will Ender and get that even score. Um but not as surprised to see some of these other defenseman with the minuses when that uh that third period kind of blew up in the uh sorry the second period blew up in the Canucks faces. Yeah. And and Mancini’s minus two. I mean, he’s the highest minute guy out there tonight. 23 minutes played. Um so, you know, a lot was leaned on for him. um and not necessarily caught out and he was asked to play with Mino and a lot of that was Mino not Mancini. Um when you look at the goal visualizers of the one um Mino gets kind of backed into the front of the net where Mancini’s already covered the middle and Mo should be pushing back out to the boards and uh playing the puck but he’s not and he’s not playing aggressive and he gets caught down low and that’s one of the goals that uh they get in the second period there. So, um, yeah, overall a lot of young guys just got beat by an NHL team. I mean, it it was kind of what I expected to happen tonight. I would have been shocked if the Canucks pulled off a win. Um, but, uh, I did like what I saw from a couple of guys. I would like to see more from others. Um, but I would expect some heavy cuts coming tomorrow um, after this game. Yeah. Yeah. Wouldn’t be surprised to see this is a very large roster. they’re still running with right now um with the Vancouver Conucks. Uh the last guy I wanted to touch on before we get going was Jonathan Leer Macki who who showed some really good stuff tonight, but there was a moment where I mean and it comes down to Neil’s Hoglander as well, not playing the puck quickly enough behind the net. put comes all the way back down the ice and essentially Leer Macki misses his check because he has to back check harder and get that second man because Jolate had or sorry Joe Bait um Pio Joseph had his man and Leer Mackey did not and that ends up in the back of the Canucks net. Does that kind of thing concern you about Leer Mackey or are we just chalking it up to it’s still preseason? Uh, I know which goal you’re talking about and I think I don’t think that is as much Leer Mackeyy’s fault. Um, if you look at the breakdown um on NHL where they have the little numbers that move around. Yeah. Uh, it’s actually um Schult PJ kind of out to the Wolves in front of the net there. Um whereas Joseph should have pushed up to his guy and uh Schultz should have backed up to the front of the net a little more. Um Leer Mackey wasn’t really in a spot to pick up one of those guys. So it was just a weird play and I think uh a lot of that was Schult isn’t ready for the NHL. Um he he doesn’t belong up here. He he’s going to be sent to Abbottzford probably tomorrow. Yeah. Yeah. I wouldn’t be surprised about that, too. Uh Dustin, anything else you want to say to chat before I let you go for the night? Oh, just so happy to be back talking Canucks hockey. Um very excited to get uh Abbottzford Canucks hockey going again as well. I can’t wait for the the more of the veterans to get on the ice. Happy to see so many familiar names in chat and so many new names in chat. looking forward to get to getting to know all of you more as the season goes on. Obviously, uh preseason doesn’t mean a whole lot, but uh we do get to break down some of the the youth and uh I’m happy that you’re all here listening to us rant about it. Uh we do have the next game coming up on the 24th, September 24th, Wednesday. Are you around for that game? I will be around on Wednesday night. Yes, I will be here. I believe.

KJ Squared. KJ III saying hi to KJ squared. Christopher, I thought to was the Kak’s best best Kuck fan. Yeah, if he wasn’t if he hadn’t only played the half the game, Christopher, I would agree with you. But because they took him out, I’ll give it to Mancini. Wait, two Polar Bears wrestling or each contestant gets a bear to wrestle? Either way, I’m sold on the idea. Yeah, the business aspects are sometimes off. Players getting paid unproportionately. Gola on my bord gola like this. Gola gola gola gola. Laugh out loud. Polar bears like vodka. Do they? Oh, polar bear is a vodka fellas says KJ Brazy. So KJ Brazy, KJ Brazy squared and KJ Brazy the third all in polar ice blue ribbon for Victoria Mancini. Decent vodka. How about 20 roosters versus one polar bear. Demco 45 lanky 35 to 2. Okay, so you want to see toil a couple times, eh? Eddie F looking for just a little bit of toilo. Potters Mancini is good. Roid Rage Swervven. That’s a good one. What if the gorilla gets into steroids though? That may be scary. A gorilla on steroids. Would that make them stronger or are they already OP? Doc is underrated says Till. Drew O’ Connor has some speed to him. He’s got a big body, too. So, I hope we see a little bit more from him. Till 100 roid roided crackheads versus one gorilla.

Do you think that was the real Quinn Hughes? I definitely think it was to say I’m 73% certain that was Quinn. Totes was the real Huggy Bear. If it was, he must be a huge gamer. Ask him about first console. Maybe a troller. First hay have been uh KT Eel Pong. KTEL Pong. Eddie F. Yeah, good call. The bananas are the roids like a glove. R like a glove r. That’s what it is. Like a glove. Now I got it. We’re talking about having Olympic special. Uh, especially for Roid users. Yeah, need more hits than regular play, but I guess no one wants to get hurt during these preseason games. Sensei, funny you mentioned that. The Conucks had 34 hits.

And then Hacho using his membership message to say they’re getting the L’s out of their system before the season starts, which is actually accurate. My goodness, people. What a beautiful stream tonight. Despite the fact that the Vancouver Ganox failed to defeat a very NHL veteran Seattle Kraken team, we’ll take it. You know, we held our own against a clearly better roster and uh the Seattle Kraken should be ashamed of themselves is pretty much what I’m saying. Um we are going to be live again.
