Regardless of the outcome I can say I have enjoyed the journey to this point. This next game will help the organization decide who has the will and burning desire to be difference makers. Whether that be offensively or defensively. Tocc was watching the guys on the bench very closely in the final 10 minutes. He was reading the players and see who he thinks he can trust in game 7. We saw a lot of the bottom lines to close out the final frame and I'm glad it seemed like he rested some of the vets. I expect Mikheyev will be back in. Podz I hope will be. Silovs deserves the start. I have full confidence our team builders Jim and Alvin will deliver us an even more improved squad next season. One that will be younger with AHL injections and with more promising talent via trade and free agency. I suspect Brock Boeser will be traded because he lacks the speed and drive to win each night. If he only was a bit faster he could be a real difference maker. I would make a play for Ehlers or better yet.. an actual good Dpartner for Quinn Hughes. A defensively reliable yet semi offensively gifted dman. Parayko maybe? I don't suspect Lindholm returns but I would welcome him here long term if he felt he had a chance to win a cup here. Dakota Joshua is going to be to costly to re-sign and we got plenty of stud young kids coming up. He should cash in but not in VAN. Garland has been a great piece for us! I am all for keeping him unless we can utilize the cap space better for a more efficient offensive threat. We are decently well built but still lack some key parts to be heavy favourites. We could beat the Oil Monday and give Dallas a run for their money. But to be a consistent cup contender you need more pieces. Perhaps our AHL kids start to give us that next year. But I think we still need a legit scorer. I think that person is Guentzel. Make it happen Jim. You know the man and you know how he can deliver. Otherwise I would target some pieces out of Carolina Necas, Svech if he hits the market etc. Try and maybe poach a good man in ufa like Pesce. (Believe he doesn't want to Canada tho). This next game will be our mona lisa. Who will rise, who will prove they have the ability and can deliver! Coach isn't putting anyone in the lineup he doesn't feel has it. The burning desire to succeed! No one outside the room is coming in to save the guys. Demmer isn't being air dropped in so its up to the players in the room to look at themselves in the mirror and ask if they can give more. We need a big game on Monday and we need to give a full 60 minute effort. Something we have yet to do this series. Silovs has earned the start and I believe he is capable of delivering us the W. We just need to clean up their chances to go five hole in close. He got exposed there a few times tonight. I trust Tocc. I trust Hughes n Miller. Let's get this rolling and trust our management will make this work! Even if some of the decisions this off-season are not the most crowd pleasing! Lets go boys! Couldn’t have written this better myself. Hoping that the Game 5 team shows up for Game 7 but if not it will show how far the Canucks need to improve for next season. Go Canucks !

German Canuck Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Most frustrating game of the season so far. Big chance and a big shitty effort. Nothing positiv to because all players sucked. I hope they are ready to play hockey on monday. If not they better should learn how to play golf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole team had a low game comparative to other games in the series. But that aside, Z was there... he had 4 hits and he stomped on Kane when he tried a cheapshot.

Hughes nearly put the puck in the net... Skinner barely deflected it with the edge of the blocker. But like the rest of the team, he had a low energy game compared to others in the series.

hockeyville88 Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 We need to stop with this narrative of “it’s an honour just to be nominated” aka “we’re just happy to be in a game 7.” Yes, we’re here. We earned the right to be here. But we can’t just be satisfied to have made it to a game 7 against the Oilers. We have to want the win and we have to believe in our ability to win. No other result is acceptable. That’s how we need to approach this and everyone needs to bring their best 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly, god forbid, if Demko keeps having injury issues, may be our starter sooner than later But he lost. I'd try DeSmith. 3rd string goalie war!

I just don't get why people are a staunch "No" on playing DeSmith. Silovs hasn't been exactly lights out. He's been good. But damn. To each their own I guess. Skinner sucks but he came in refreshed. Silov's needs a break from this pressure cooker. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really doesn't seem himself, I hope he get's another series.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
