You need to look up the word dominating bro. He had two good games. Let's see what happens after 10 games. His reg season was mid at best
He’s playing with top players of course he’s going to rack up some points
I had been saying since day 1, heck before Kuz was even traded away from the Canucks, that trading him away for some rentals will be a mistake. Most important reason is because he has proven to work well with EP40. And he was a Bure fan and actually wants to be a Canucks since childhood.
The way they made his stat look bad is, throw him to the 4th line and away from EP40. They already had a deal lined up with Lindholm, so they need an excuse to justify to the fans to trade Kuz away.
Canucks still made the playoffs last year. But we were SO good at the start of last year. We destroyed the Oilers back to back easily. But immediately after we started putting Kuz in the 4th line, we stopped dominating. Management decided to fix a problem that doesn't exist and ruined the team.
Gm can bring Barazal home trade Petey money is the same. Both start fresh. Barzal Hoglander and McLeod would be line of future.
Dobson this way Willander to NYI with Max Sasson.
Tocc needs to leave
Dumb. I mean, does Calgary have regrets? Does Philly have regrets?
No, he was worse then miller deffensivly and refused to adapt or change. Either he goes or the coach goes
Kuzmenko has been unreal for the Kings he completely transformed the powerplay, and the Kings offense, and his defense has actually been really good he's been stripping pucks in the neutral zone, back checking well, and I've only seen him make like maybe 1 or 2 bad defense mistakes in his 25 games here. I hope he sticks around after this season
Nobody's talking about how Tocchet has said they've been trying to change the way Petey plays – turn him into a north south player instead of east west? And the pressure from him and management to be an 'does everything super star"? They're the ones who have been pushing to change the way he plays. Kuz likely same. And yes there's team benefits to what they're trying to push, but it's sucking the offense of these guys big time.
Kuzy is uber talented. Go Kings go.
If he was 6’4” 220 pounds and up and down on your side of the rink and can make 3-5 hits a game but can’t shot the puck, he’d still be a Canuck and Toccet would love him to death! Vancouver should be real about this and find a coach that resembles the type of team they want!
Yeah…… Still not happy about it.
Wasnt too sure about him when Blake got him but wow had he been amazing. Him n foegele are 2 prefect additions to this kings team
Gave away the only winger that meshed with EP40 because Tocchet's garbage mentality.
