Shots don't tell the whole story, the way they have been double shifting mcdrai obviously they would outshoot them We have done a great job on the counter attack and cycle I think this series has been pretty even. Not tonight though. We really miss Soucy, these defensive pairings aren't working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnotherCanucksFan Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 18 minutes ago, Blue said: It is basically an elimination game for Edm. Did anyone think this was going to be easy ? The score isn't because the Oilers are playing great, it's because the Canucks are playing a subpar game. Creating a 2-1 because of bad defensive choices isn't about the Oilers play. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this has been my favorite canucks playoff series in 13 years and another game to watch won't hurt. That said, WIN DA TURD! Bigly! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoop Hogg Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 It would amuse me if we tie it up and win it in a double or triple overtime to really empty McDry’s gas tanks. Sure, we’d be tired too, but not nearly as bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuckfanforlife82 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 4 minutes ago, MeanSeanBean said: Completely disagree. He's been engaged defensively all night. Yes it’s what we paid 11.6 to him for. To be a defensive forward. I can’t get excited that on the odd night he plays well defensively. That’s a pretty low bar for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuinnNorris Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I’m surprised no Hoglander. We could use the 25 goal even strength player in the the 3rd. Tocchett over thinking the defensive game plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Buzzsaw- Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Myers is playing an excellent game. Big Z has been mostly playing a safe conservative game... he was probably told by Tocchet not to stick his head out. Hughes is playing well. Cole a little shaky. Juulsen showing his inexperience. Hronek has been generally good... some decent plays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all in on giving our younger players a chance when a regular isn't performing over a long period of time. In the last few games a farmer would be better than Cole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tas Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 1 minute ago, brownky said: He’s right though. the Canucks haven’t played well enough consistently all series. They win in ‘spurts’. Watch how Carolina plays the Rangers. They might be down, but I really don’t think deservedly. It’s skate, work, work, work, all game. Canucks think they can coast on talent or something. As soon as they get a pass they go full A-frame and glide. Wait for passes along the wall rather than go get the puck. They’ve got a whole period to make something happen. They had about 6 minutes in the second where they ‘manned up’. They need to be there all game. the spurts they've needed to. there are no style points in playoffs. if they had needed to dictate more of the play, they would have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HKSR Posted May 15 Popular Post Share Posted May 15 (edited) Aman has looked fine out there on the 4th line. Flank him with Mik and Lafferty. Get Petey on the wing with a player that knows what he's doing these playoffs in Lindholm.

NHL97OneTimer Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 1 minute ago, CanucksCountry said: Pettersson himself has been fine there's only so much a guy can do with 4line plug linemates Disagree......for once I agree with Hrudey. EP has been terrible in the playoffs. For those who say he's played well defensively, who hasn't? For those who say he plays with plugs....sure, but he's the star making star money who should be elevating his line. He didn't play this poorly in the regular season with the same plugs. He should at least be taking good shots on the PP.....or helping with possession on the PP. No way anyone can truly say he's played well or fine. He's been brutal for his pay level and skill level. He's either injured or not putting in enough effort. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NZCanuck Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Frustrating that the second goal doesn't happen if the league isn't on McDavid's c*ck. Soucy doesn't step up for that hit and odd man rush doesn't happen. Down 2 but we haven't looked out. Oilers are playing much tighter defence in front of Picard though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
