After witnessing some homophobic behaviour by some Islanders fans a number of years ago, he raised some concerns with the team, which then sought him out to forge an inclusive approach. After the Rangers decided at the last minute to not wear any Pride gear, they drew a mountain of criticism. The fourth line of Curtis Lazar, Phil Di Giuseppe and Åman were quality all night. But his tip goal was lovely and you could see the joy as he celebrated the goal. And that’s what Boeser has confirmed yet again this year, even if he spent some of the night skating with Sheldon Dries. The wrist-shot goal he scored Thursday got him to 10 goals on the year. He might have had three in three if a first-period power play goal hadn’t been negated by goalie interference. Pettersson may turn out to be the Canucks’ next captain and perhaps they need him to be.

Gamethread #52: Canucks vs Islanders (Nucks Misconduct)

Canucks face a playoff contender that has Bo Horvat on it.

The forwards going to have to hustle their asses back faster and fill the lanes. Again, I am asking Brock to get some goals....or makes some plays...or drop the gloves.....just do something! May the Lord save your liver. The quick turnaround for the Canucks helps reduce the amount of questions the players will have to field when it comes to playing against their former captain. Tonight’s drinking game will include the phrase, “former Canuck Bo Horvat”. This eastern road swing could be named “The roadtrip of one goal losses.” I’m not sure the team is playing well enough to win any of these games, but at least they keep it respectable.

Fresh off of back-to-back devastating losses that have pushed Vancouver’s record to a far below-average mark of 20-27-4, the time is now for the Canucks to turn things around before it is too late.
