This from "Canucks Nation - The Blog":<BR/><BR/>"Get aggressive. Remember the team that steamrolled the Nashville Predators on Dec. 9? The one that bullied the Preds into submission, leaving head coach Barry Trotz whining about crossing the line? Get back to that and stop worrying about penalties. “Physical play, getting under opponent’s skin, and hard work — that’s hard to play against,” Ryan Kesler said. “We’re going to take penalties. We’re a gritty team and we play on that edge. That’s what makes us such a good team. Look at Anaheim a couple years ago when they led the league in penalties (and won the Stanley Cup). “We have to find the edge and do it when the refs are not looking for it. We can kill five, six penalties a night, that’s not problem.” <BR/><BR/>Who knows? it might turn out to be a barnburner! <BR/><BR/>Totally agree with Hitch in sitting Filatov. The kid is still a little smallish when he's targeted (as teams are more aware of him now after the hat trick).<BR/><BR/>Not a make or break road trip, but it would be nice to win 2/3 for 4 points.<BR/><BR/>Carry The Flag !!!Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758805762301302813noreply@blogger.com
