Game Thread: Canucks Vs Oilers : Canucks Home Opener

[puckhead]

haha Healy started taking another shot at Tortorella and Friedman tried to cool it down by saying "we had our say, he had his, lets not act like 14 year old girls"

followed by a Healy death stare

"If you look at the stats they were all in Edmonton's favour." - Healy.


and this is interesting:
@TSNBobMcKenzie
To answer @FriedgeHNIC's on air question, re: Yakupov vs Murray, and I suspect he knew answer: Yes, majority of EDM scouts wanted Murray.
Decision to take Yakupov over Murray came from a higher authority. That's not indictment of decision, only saying how it was arrived at.

maybe that should be in the comedy thread as well.

Taylor Hall on 630 CHED (Edmonton radio) post game:

"It's not like I'm going to be sent down"

Nope, but I think your days of playing centre are over.

Why did torts lose it I can't remember

Why did torts lose it I can't remember

I think there was some rough stuff going on between the 2 teams at one point, and that got both coaches feisty.

Loved the close up on acton while he yelled shut the f@$k up clear as day

Torts said post-game that Oilers coaches (might have been Acton) were chirping at his players...

It's hard for the Doobster to keep track of West Coast teams like the Canucks, but I might give it a try this year. Torts always makes things interesting.

lol after Botchford asks Torts what he thought of healeys comments and Torts says he doesnt give a shit ... someone in the media scrum yells "ALRIGHT!" lol
