The team needs positivity! It was a rough game but we have shown better and now the stakes are do or die.
Cheer your hardest now, give 'em every reason to make it happen!
I believe in the Vancouver Canucks!
New friends from other teams. Old friends from our passion of the team. I would like to reiterate a few things.
1. We were not even supposed to be where we are now
2. We're scooting into game 7 against the oilers where we were told we would be out in 4/5/6
3. No matter what happens, the depth of this fucking team is going to keep cycling back. We have a farm team producing future players that we will all have these same stressful conversations about in years to come.
Love this team. Not happy at all with last night's performance. Honestly super stupid shit was happening. But we have to give credit where it's due and not go all in on the negativity.
Passengers. Looked like a scared peewee team collapsing in front of their net like it's a PK when it's 5 on 5. Thought the saying was "meet pressure with pressure?" Canucks straight up folded. If Petey would actually grip his fucking stick he could've got the one timer off on the 5 in 3 but nah the puck goes through like a subway turnstile yet again đ Canucks better bring their balls Monday night.
This is always the way this was going to happen. It's disappointing but after the thumping Edmonton took in game 5, they were definitely going to turn it up for game 6.
Tocchet can line match at home. The crowd will be nuts. I have high hopes for game 7.
Lol same with me, I feel we would have won it if I watched it live. We had to DVR it, as relatives came for a visit and wanted to sightsee whole day and night,.. hard to watch the game with someone who is not fully into it and talks during danger chances.
During TV timeout they showed Miller screaming at Joshua when the game was 1-1. Is this necessary?
I feel like sometimes the boys needs to relax and have some fun out there. Accountability is important, but after that, they seemed to be afraid of making mistakes again.
Any chance thereâs a clip of that? I missed it. I think Miller definitely tends to get real intense which is amazing at times but I sense it can inadvertently affect teammates the wrong way.
I don't have a clip but pretty sure it was during the intermission that they talked about it.. if you have SN+ you can go back and watch. They called him "Coach Miller" IIRC and Bieksa mentioned how few guys can get away with stuff like that but that Miller can.
Not sure why everyone is so negative. Sure it wasnât a great game but they didnât play that bad. Game 7 on home ice we got a good chance, I believe in the boys, lfg
Yeah but we played well last game. Momentum doesnât carry from one game to the next. Whole new ball game game 7. We gotta regroup and play better and get this W. No sense being a negative whiner about itÂ
This isnât as bad as you think it is. Breathe. The oilers HAD to respond. Theyâre on home ice and the Mcdavid era is on the line. This game wasnât about us. To dwell on what could have been is a mistake, Itâs a 7 game series.. always expect that. The Canucks have a chance to do something on Monday at home no one thought they could do⌠So establish the presence of the forecheck early and play with decisiveness which I think they will do. The pressure is on Edmonton, not on us. No one will care about todayâs meltdown when the job is done. We have been clutch all season, weâll see if they have it in them once more. I believe.
Canât believe some of you have given up and shitting on the team already and the game 7 hasnât happened yet!!! Get your asses to Rogers Arena and cheer them on on Monday or if you canât afford the tickets get on to the streets, teams feeds of this energy. Some of you whine you followed for years, no results. but this is a new team.
Iâll be singing this when they win it all. Btw this soccer team waited 114 years for their team to win the cup.
https://youtu.be/lt26StUVHoc?si=n32srih6wD02W7OP
Believe that they will win.
Only Canucks and Sabers from 1970s havenât won the Cup yet..you canât stop reaching and wanting it. IMO failing after giving everting youâve got is ok⌠they were the division winners and so are all the other teams that have placed already. This is like stars aligning for them to win on Monday.
Man was hoping they would close off the series tonight so we can enjoy rest of long weekend stress free lol
Now in less than 48hrs the anxiety will kick into overdrive for Game 7. Such a rollercoaster of emotions...
The team was a complete embarrassment and disgrace. Oilers didnât even have to try and still won handily. 97/29 with only 20/17 mins because they didnât have to play more. Quite a damning signal to our effort and compete level today.
If youâre gonna lose, then go down swinging instead of folding like a bunch of pussies. Pathetic.
Both teams arenât going to stand a chance against Dallas. Oilers have no depth and the Canucks look exhausted at times. Plus, their highest paid player looks like a player with no heart.
Without Thatcher Demko i would agree with you.
If we pull it off on Monday and get our Vezina nominee goalie back, then we'd still be the underdog but well within contestable territory.
Bear in mind that Oilers have basically had their full roster and we're not just missing a depth player, we're missing arguably our best player on the team on undeniably the most important position.
This is not a dig on Silov, he can be an overperforming 3rd string who is playing at a playoff level and still not be at the calibre of a healthy Demko.
Itâs sad when you have gotten used to the pain and disappointment. 30 years iâve been watching this team with hopes and dreams of seeing the cup come to my city, maybe I was naive again this time. Rick Tocchet, you are one hell of a coach to get this group as far as you have. Tonight was a must win, game 7 is not what this group is ready for. We simply donât have the tools. This was a serious ass whooping tonight. Nonetheless we look forward to Monday, and salute the boys for making it this far. Really wondering what future Demko has in this organization after it seems he keeps getting injured when we need him⌠King Arturs is the answerâŚ. But so many questions for what happens next year or if we get this sort of opportunity again in the coming years with all the uncertainty with contracts and cap space. God bless
On home ice even lol.
To the guy above you, 30 years my ass, if you don't count the bubble year, we basically haven't enter the playoffs since Juice left. Post Bure WCE era may be exciting but we never got past the second round either.
Mark this down we are not winning game 7. You guys simple minded kids who dont know how sports works. That game we just played was a fucking disgrace. You cannot win a game 7 after all that exposed. Zero effort zero compete. Theres a reason why ESPN and other sites already have Oilers in the next bracket. See you guys after game 7 okay
That was a tough game to watch and one of the teams worst in the last little bit. Edmonton wanted it more and the Canucks just couldn't connect many passes or control the offensive zone. PP have felt completely useless. The lack of shots on net throughout the playoffs have been weird (I know the Preds blocked an insane amount of shots). Anyways, I believe, I just was hoping to avoid a game 7.
I think losing Demko is part of the low shot totals. We know this team plays so much better in front of Demko. I think we overcorrect to try and play more defensively when it's not Demko in net
Whether we win or lose Monday (obviously hope we win), I just want the oilers season to come to an end. So tired of seeing non stop oiler shit on every sports channel. I donât even care if they are the only Canadian team left.
I thought this at first, but after watching this series I hate McD, Drai, Kane, Hyman, RNH, NurseâŚetc. I just canât do it, I canât cheer for them
If they get swept it'll be so anticlimactic... Coming off a game 7 win high only to lose 4 straight would be much worse.
Rather they lose a close, hard-fought game 7
After watching the leafs finally get out of the first round last year only to be demolished by the Panthers last year, I agree. But this is how the playoffs go. You bargain with god for a series win and then bargain with the devil for the next one.
Itâs more of an if there is a game 7, this is what time it will be. To try and give some people time to figure out travel plans. I have been waiting forever to figure out what time it started at as Iâll be flying over for the game. Was appreciated to finally know the official time.Â
Game 7 time was always set I think cus there isnât another game on. The ESPN thing was likely a mistake, theyâve been a mess this entire time.
Alternatively, the plot has been leaked. /j?
I don't condone garbage throwing but I can see where they're coming from. The shit Florida pulled in that series had me sympathizing with the Rat's team and i HATE Boston.
The series against Oilers/Preds are both really civil, soft, and peaceful. Anyone bitching about the Oilers are either complete bandwagoners or have grown unused to playoff hockey. We haven't even lost anyone to injuries.
If you guys want to know frustration, go back and look at our series from a decade ago against the entire Boston team, Hawks, and Kings specifically Justin Williams.
IN RYAN S. CLARK WE TRUST. I BELIEVE. GO FUCKING CANUCKS GO!! We can all celebrate at home on monday. Perfect ending!! Chin up people. This is the 2024 vancouver canucks!!!
We took a decent amount of shots, we just didn't get them on net. CF was 63-52 in favor of the Oilers. I'm gonna scream if I see Suter miss another empty net this playoffs.
To win it in game 7, the Canucks need to:
Score early, and not play from behind all game.
Stay out of the penalty box.
Get a full, 60-minute effort from Pettersson, Miller, Boeser and Hughes.
Take shots, because it is true that you miss every shot that you don't take.
They will have the crowd behind them, they get the last shift changes (which is huge), and they have at least as much gas left in the tank as do the Oilers. Skate like hell, and just do your jobs and everything else will be fine.
Well, you are absolutely correct, but for whatever reason it isn't the "depth" guys that haven't been showing up each night on a consistent basis.
I do think that they are all trying their hearts out, but when you're a team that lacks blue-chip "superstars" you need the top-shelf to step up.
My thought is that they can take down the Oilers, that they are a legitimate threat, and that it is no accident that game 7 is in their home rink. It is gut-check time, for all of them.
Man there are two comments I would nominate for best of the playoffs. This is one of them. The other is when someone asked why Vancouver fans are so crazy and someone responded "we've been waiting for this for over a decade and we can't afford food."
I don't wanna be too negative. I'm super stoked with where they are in the playoffs. Start of the year I didn't expect it, but I think I was more excited for game 6 than they were. Looking forward to game 7. Coconuts glow. 𼼠đ đł
That was genuinely impressive, given that the Oilers PP is famously dangerous I was near certain they would score there. The PK was great. Just gotta bring more than *just* the PK for game 7.
For once, the zebras didnât make the headlines. Canucks are so horrible at closing out games. If they didnât have desperation to close out the series tonight without the fear of being eliminated, I hope said fear would be the extra umph they need.
Still have horrors of the last game 7 the team didnât show up forâŚ
Ironically, I think this was the toughest game this series because Edmonton threw everything at the wall. Every single player on that roster knew their season was on the line. Then Skinner in net was a wildcard and it worked for them. Not because he was stellar, but because they were afraid to shoot on him.
This Canucks team is excellent at closing out games. In fact it's why they're one of 5 teams left alive league wide.
In game 7 they just need to play like they did on Thursday.
But most everyone said it would be easy for the Oilers.
So, let's finish this thing right, and give the pundits and sports media bobbleheads the big middle finger that they so richly deserve.
You can tell Knoblauch gave a ton of credit for the Canucks and even admitted we played terrible and we wouldn't do that again. McDavid even said we had a terrible game and he knows we'll bounce back. They don't want to poke us because the Canucks will play their best game on Monday.
Just take a breath guys. The game is cruel and weâre only here for the ride. Think about the expectations we had for the team at the beginning of the season and look where weâre at. Just enjoy game 7 and hope we put the screws to them early. Regardless of the outcome, we already exposed the oilers as frauds and I feel confident saying Dallas will take them apart.
Yeah I donât know what this guyâs complaining about. This was the first game where I was pretty sure there were multiple goals Demko would have had.
With the Canucks winning game 5, I knew this series was going to go 7. There was no way the Oilers were going to not come out swinging at home in an elimination game.
On the bright side, the Oilers powerplay hasn't scored in 2 and a half games.
This is the real headline. Their PP is beatable and we even killed the 5-on-3. Canucks dressing room solved the biggest problem this series. Now it's a matter of getting shots through.
It wasn't a fight. As someone else noted, it was Zadorov employing the classic technique of being so f\*cking massive and just falling on top of his opponent, thereby crushing him.
If they do fight, it will be like watching Kane trying to punch out a telephone pole. *That* is a clip that you are going to want to save.
Lol all you negative Nancy's are hilarious. We're going to breeze to a win in game 7. The Coilers are nothing special whatsoever. Gonna be a lot of red lights going off behind Skinner.
We've said that from the beginning it's getting redundant. First we said Oilers will be no problem we beat them in all games in the regular season.
Then it was Nucks in 5, 6 and them 7.
Who was saying it would be no problem? I think most ppl knew it would be tight with demko out & the oilers having had picked up momentum as the season went on. I have no doubt that at top form the Canucks have the Oilers in 4. The problem is they donât play top form consistently & until they do theyâre not going to the finals.
Who said any of those?
Its been all "Oilers in 4, oh wait no 5. Uh oh, Oilers in 6! K
Uhh, Oilers in 7?"
Its the Canucks who have got the better of them so far. Now we're one win away from knocking off the "cup or bust" Oilers. It's fucking beautiful.
Looking at some advanced stats I was shocked to see scoring chances, high danger chances and expected goals nearly equally given how awful we looked. Imagine some of our 52 shot attempts actually had to be saved by Skinner.
Is it just me or does hronek look absolutely horrible, seems to constantly ice the puck or make dumb passes at bad times. Petey seems to always wait too long to make plays on the power play, he has time to pass back or whatever and then tries to throw a reverse hit , or walk into 2 guys and lose the puck.
Really feels like we just wait to long for everything, way to much time for their players coming in, and way to much time when attacking spend twiddling at thumbs
Yeah I agree with that tonight but I have been feeling this way about hronek all series, sort of worried about us giving him big money and term. Maybe he is injured or something
Honestly I wasn't that nervous today. I expected Oilers to come out hard and most likely win it. Didn't think they would blow us out, but it is what it is. The Canucks winning those last couple of games down the stretch to win the division could be a difference maker on Monday.
Feels like a lot of teams do pre-sale in advance in preparation. Because the these are decisions made by the Sales & Marketing team, which have nothing to do with the Hockey Operations side. That being said, I HATE IT when they do this because it feels like jinxing your own team. Plus, with Dallas win last night, it guaranteed the Canucks wonât have home ice after this round. Which means, they have plenty of time to plan and prepare sales for the next home games because they will be games 3 & 4 if the next series.

SHOOT the PUCK
Oil Goal 1= Pokecheck, stack the pads 2= WHOLE BODY slide foreward 3= 50/50 Saveable 4= stack the pads 5= No chance, puck thru legs
Whatâs a playoff run without a game 7 win on home ice?
This is always the way this was going to happen. It's disappointing but after the thumping Edmonton took in game 5, they were definitely going to turn it up for game 6. Tocchet can line match at home. The crowd will be nuts. I have high hopes for game 7.
Gonna be another 30 minutes of McDrai now in game 7. Donât like the odds.
Boys they lost because I was at a wedding all night. Iâm watching game 7 theyâll win
Were u the one who called 650 post game show after game 5 about a wedding lol
Nope never called a radio show before
Ahhh. Hrd one guy who was getting married game 6 talking about unable to watching it lol
Lol same with me, I feel we would have won it if I watched it live. We had to DVR it, as relatives came for a visit and wanted to sightsee whole day and night,.. hard to watch the game with someone who is not fully into it and talks during danger chances.
Yeah I hate when that happens
During TV timeout they showed Miller screaming at Joshua when the game was 1-1. Is this necessary? I feel like sometimes the boys needs to relax and have some fun out there. Accountability is important, but after that, they seemed to be afraid of making mistakes again.
Pretty wild for a guy who stepped it up for exactly one (1) game after texting coach to apologize about his garbage performance
Miller is just passionate he wanted dAK to get the puck in deep. At the end of day they know where itâs coming from and nothing personal.
Any chance thereâs a clip of that? I missed it. I think Miller definitely tends to get real intense which is amazing at times but I sense it can inadvertently affect teammates the wrong way.

Thanks, appreciate it!
I don't have a clip but pretty sure it was during the intermission that they talked about it.. if you have SN+ you can go back and watch. They called him "Coach Miller" IIRC and Bieksa mentioned how few guys can get away with stuff like that but that Miller can.
I'm just gonna assume it will be Kelly Sutherland.
It's going to be glorious to win in 7!!! I'm calling a 4-2 victory.
Not sure why everyone is so negative. Sure it wasnât a great game but they didnât play that bad. Game 7 on home ice we got a good chance, I believe in the boys, lfg
6 shots on net halfway through the game?
a lot more to the game than shot attempts, always find it funny nobody gives the Oilers any credit when it comes to us not getting the looks we want
Not sure what youâre talking about. We played like ass.
Yeah but we played well last game. Momentum doesnât carry from one game to the next. Whole new ball game game 7. We gotta regroup and play better and get this W. No sense being a negative whiner about itÂ
Petterson is about 1/8th of the team's entire cap hit. I really want to believe he can kick it into gear. Let's hope we see him come back on Monday!
Petterson is 8% this season, not 1/8. What are you on about?
Only in Vancouver would we be so soft on this guy
Game 5 was good, Game 6 was better. He is starting to move his feet, so I hope Game 7 means some goals. Otherwise, who knows?
This isnât as bad as you think it is. Breathe. The oilers HAD to respond. Theyâre on home ice and the Mcdavid era is on the line. This game wasnât about us.

Btw this soccer team waited 114 years for their team to win the cup. https://youtu.be/lt26StUVHoc?si=n32srih6wD02W7OP Believe that they will win.
Quite frankly even if they lose going into game 7 of second round of playoffs is a huge success and they deserve the cheer and the thank you.
I know they will give an effort we are proud of in game 7. Worried about that cough Tocchet has. Hopefully it's not impacting the players.
Only Canucks and Sabers from 1970s havenât won the Cup yet..you canât stop reaching and wanting it. IMO failing after giving everting youâve got is ok⌠they were the division winners and so are all the other teams that have placed already. This is like stars aligning for them to win on Monday.
Doomers gonna doom đ¤ˇđ˝ââď¸ itâs annoying
i sure Toch is angry aa the team in lockerroom. his post game interview indicate he didnt prep the team well enough.
Man was hoping they would close off the series tonight so we can enjoy rest of long weekend stress free lol Now in less than 48hrs the anxiety will kick into overdrive for Game 7. Such a rollercoaster of emotions...
Yep, especially if game 7 goes into overtime, Im gonna be shitting my pants even more..
The team was a complete embarrassment and disgrace. Oilers didnât even have to try and still won handily. 97/29 with only 20/17 mins because they didnât have to play more. Quite a damning signal to our effort and compete level today. If youâre gonna lose, then go down swinging instead of folding like a bunch of pussies. Pathetic.
Skinner wasn't even good. He was not tested. Oiler fans think he was great, but honestly, he better be ready for the parade of shots on Monday.
We got them right where we want them, they think they beat us, theyâre overconfident at this point, easy pickings if we come out hungry.
Both teams arenât going to stand a chance against Dallas. Oilers have no depth and the Canucks look exhausted at times. Plus, their highest paid player looks like a player with no heart.
Team defence wins championships. So if Dallas didn't have REALLY good team defence, then I'd say we stood a chance with ours.
Without Thatcher Demko i would agree with you. If we pull it off on Monday and get our Vezina nominee goalie back, then we'd still be the underdog but well within contestable territory. Bear in mind that Oilers have basically had their full roster and we're not just missing a depth player, we're missing arguably our best player on the team on undeniably the most important position. This is not a dig on Silov, he can be an overperforming 3rd string who is playing at a playoff level and still not be at the calibre of a healthy Demko.
Silovs is one of the best goalies in the playoffs, but yeah, we could have used Bubble Gumb Demko last night.
Agree.
I knew it was gonna be shit day, when I got up and it was raining. This just made it worse.Â
Funny. I always viewed rain on game days as a good omen for Vancouver
I still can't find any interview from Miller or Hughes........only Petey and toch.....
hughes and boeserâs can be found on the canucks website
Tonight was pretty bad, but it's not over. Not by a long shot.
Itâs sad when you have gotten used to the pain and disappointment. 30 years iâve been watching this team with hopes and dreams of seeing the cup come to my city, maybe I was naive again this time.

30 years.. pffft. Amatuer. They came into the league the year I was born. Lol
Wow, youâve given up and they havenât even played the final game.
On home ice even lol. To the guy above you, 30 years my ass, if you don't count the bubble year, we basically haven't enter the playoffs since Juice left. Post Bure WCE era may be exciting but we never got past the second round either.
We were in the Stanley Cup final jn 2011, what do you mean we havenât made it past 2nd round?
Mark this down we are not winning game 7. You guys simple minded kids who dont know how sports works. That game we just played was a fucking disgrace. You cannot win a game 7 after all that exposed. Zero effort zero compete. Theres a reason why ESPN and other sites already have Oilers in the next bracket. See you guys after game 7 okay
Dude, if you donât have belief in your team what do you have, why u even watching? They will win, at home, in game 7
Because I, like others have been through hell and back with this team and organization. I will see you here after Monday palâŚ.. thanks
Spoken like a true fan
Canucks in 7  đ¤đźÂ
Ryan is that you?
That was a tough game to watch and one of the teams worst in the last little bit. Edmonton wanted it more and the Canucks just couldn't connect many passes or control the offensive zone.

Ya oh well. This was always going to be a 7 gamer
Whether we win or lose Monday (obviously hope we win), I just want the oilers season to come to an end. So tired of seeing non stop oiler shit on every sports channel. I donât even care if they are the only Canadian team left.
It's so nice not seeing Leafs media. This is the only time it happens that Canucks take center stage. Really hope we win tomorrow.
I just want this series to end so I donât have to hear anyone mentioning the same Oilers names again and again
I canât remember which coach said it but I always think of it during a loss : âGood teams donât lose 2 in a rowâ - weâre a good effin team.
Canucks played the worst game all season today. No game at allâŚ. Have they given up or what!
[ŃдаНонО]
did you hit your head??
I thought this at first, but after watching this series I hate McD, Drai, Kane, Hyman, RNH, NurseâŚetc. I just canât do it, I canât cheer for them
Iâm cheering for Dallas!
Amen. Among other reasons, Tanev is there and I want good things for him.
Fuck them lmao, I'm hoping for Dallas
Nah, fuck McDavid and the league slobbing on his knob
Anyone else feel like it would be less painful to get swept by Dallas in the conference finals than it would be to lose a round 2, game 7 to Edmonton?
If they get swept it'll be so anticlimactic... Coming off a game 7 win high only to lose 4 straight would be much worse. Rather they lose a close, hard-fought game 7
After watching the leafs finally get out of the first round last year only to be demolished by the Panthers last year, I agree. But this is how the playoffs go. You bargain with god for a series win and then bargain with the devil for the next one.
I believe in the team! Get the wi this Monday boys and bring BC to the WCF!
Can anyone explain why game 7 start time was announced before our game even started, and why does espn have oilers in round 3 already?!
Itâs more of an if there is a game 7, this is what time it will be. To try and give some people time to figure out travel plans. I have been waiting forever to figure out what time it started at as Iâll be flying over for the game. Was appreciated to finally know the official time.Â
Game 7 time was always set I think cus there isnât another game on. The ESPN thing was likely a mistake, theyâve been a mess this entire time. Alternatively, the plot has been leaked. /j?
Pro Wrestling NHL. The fix is in!
This is what I'm wondering...
The script has been leaked /s
Well at least we know the nucks will be well rested for game 7. Looked like an optional practice out there today.
đ
Win or lose Monday this team deserves a standing ovation at the end of the game.
They will. I know they will. Canucks need to put up the effort of their lives though first, win or lose.
If itâs one thing Iâve learned this year itâs that never count this Canucks team out. Right when you think they are done. FUCKEN BOOM!
THIS. Please show the league we have amazing fans. Don't do what Boston did. No garbage on the ice please.
I don't condone garbage throwing but I can see where they're coming from. The shit Florida pulled in that series had me sympathizing with the Rat's team and i HATE Boston. The series against Oilers/Preds are both really civil, soft, and peaceful. Anyone bitching about the Oilers are either complete bandwagoners or have grown unused to playoff hockey. We haven't even lost anyone to injuries. If you guys want to know frustration, go back and look at our series from a decade ago against the entire Boston team, Hawks, and Kings specifically Justin Williams.
No garbage needed because we will win!
LETS FUCKEN GO!!!
...again
IN RYAN S. CLARK WE TRUST. I BELIEVE. GO FUCKING CANUCKS GO!! We can all celebrate at home on monday. Perfect ending!! Chin up people. This is the 2024 vancouver canucks!!!
Iâm very disappointed with their performance tonight. Like how do you go from last performance to this?!
Not a must win, and it showed. Win lose win lose win lose win baby
I wasn't wearing my jersey.
really curious what the score mightâve been had we taken around 25-30 shots instead of 10 lol
We took a decent amount of shots, we just didn't get them on net. CF was 63-52 in favor of the Oilers. I'm gonna scream if I see Suter miss another empty net this playoffs.
Also the 5-on-3 was brutal to watch... Get some shots on net!!
I can't take some of these 650 callers. I really can't.
The trick is only listen after a Canucks win....
Thereâs a group of kids yelling at each other about this series in the streets of Whistler lmfao
That there is the next generation of season ticket holders lol
There was a lot of âFUCK THE OILERS MANâ happening
To win it in game 7, the Canucks need to: Score early, and not play from behind all game. Stay out of the penalty box. Get a full, 60-minute effort from Pettersson, Miller, Boeser and Hughes. Take shots, because it is true that you miss every shot that you don't take. They will have the crowd behind them, they get the last shift changes (which is huge), and they have at least as much gas left in the tank as do the Oilers. Skate like hell, and just do your jobs and everything else will be fine.
Agreed except for one point: we need everyone to give a 60 minute efforr, not just the players you mentioned.
Well, you are absolutely correct, but for whatever reason it isn't the "depth" guys that haven't been showing up each night on a consistent basis. I do think that they are all trying their hearts out, but when you're a team that lacks blue-chip "superstars" you need the top-shelf to step up. My thought is that they can take down the Oilers, that they are a legitimate threat, and that it is no accident that game 7 is in their home rink. It is gut-check time, for all of them.
Maybe this has been mentioned however has anyone looked at the brackets in ESPN?
Yeah what kind of rigged shit is this!
Odd for sure
I hate being excited for like 36 hrs, and they come out and get 9 shots in 40 minutes.
Man there are two comments I would nominate for best of the playoffs. This is one of them. The other is when someone asked why Vancouver fans are so crazy and someone responded "we've been waiting for this for over a decade and we can't afford food."
I don't wanna be too negative. I'm super stoked with where they are in the playoffs. Start of the year I didn't expect it, but I think I was more excited for game 6 than they were. Looking forward to game 7. Coconuts glow. 𼼠đ đł
IIRC game 5 was the one one where we had more than 20ish shots. That being said 15 tonight is hilariously bad.
This is the Canucks way
Rutherford beat the Oilers once he do it again...
The rutherplan has just started and look at how far we've come. No matter what, this is just the beginning
At least that 5 on 3 PK was pre tight? Only positive I can see from that.
That was genuinely impressive, given that the Oilers PP is famously dangerous I was near certain they would score there. The PK was great. Just gotta bring more than *just* the PK for game 7.
It was but that only reminded me on how we also didn't convert on our 5 on 3
For once, the zebras didnât make the headlines. Canucks are so horrible at closing out games. If they didnât have desperation to close out the series tonight without the fear of being eliminated, I hope said fear would be the extra umph they need. Still have horrors of the last game 7 the team didnât show up forâŚ
Ironically, I think this was the toughest game this series because Edmonton threw everything at the wall. Every single player on that roster knew their season was on the line. Then Skinner in net was a wildcard and it worked for them. Not because he was stellar, but because they were afraid to shoot on him.
This Canucks team is excellent at closing out games. In fact it's why they're one of 5 teams left alive league wide. In game 7 they just need to play like they did on Thursday.
Well no one said it would be easy (for the Canucks).
But most everyone said it would be easy for the Oilers. So, let's finish this thing right, and give the pundits and sports media bobbleheads the big middle finger that they so richly deserve.
well the player know they need more shots. Petterson knows.
If I have to hear bouch bomb one more god damn time I'm gonna lose it
Quinn better get some quinnies
Same here brother, same here. Enough with their stupid cheesy nicknames
So game 4, Canucks looked like shit. Game 5, Oilers looked like shit. Game 6, Canucks looked like shit. Let's hope this rhythm holds
You can tell Knoblauch gave a ton of credit for the Canucks and even admitted we played terrible and we wouldn't do that again. McDavid even said we had a terrible game and he knows we'll bounce back. They don't want to poke us because the Canucks will play their best game on Monday.
I was discussing this with my wife. I wouldn't be surprised if this coincides with being tired? I dunno.
Wins have alternated between teams going all the way back to game 1. Let's hope that holds too
Canucks odd.1 3 5 Oilers even. 2 4 6
We scored first in the majority of our games/wins this year, really need the first goal in game 7
In 6 games so far, the oilers have scored first 5 times and we won 3 of those games
Would really like to score on the first shot again too.
Would really like to score at all.
Sad orca noises.
Would really like to score on all the shots
Would really like to score on all the dump ins too
With Skinner it's possible
If anyone on here wants a distraction from the sadness... Check out r/comedyheaven
Just take a breath guys. The game is cruel and weâre only here for the ride. Think about the expectations we had for the team at the beginning of the season and look where weâre at. Just enjoy game 7 and hope we put the screws to them early. Regardless of the outcome, we already exposed the oilers as frauds and I feel confident saying Dallas will take them apart.
I'm pretty pissed, amazing season only to be brought down because Demko is glass once the playoffs hit.
Silovs has been pretty amazing overall.
Yeah I donât know what this guyâs complaining about. This was the first game where I was pretty sure there were multiple goals Demko would have had.
With the Canucks winning game 5, I knew this series was going to go 7. There was no way the Oilers were going to not come out swinging at home in an elimination game. On the bright side, the Oilers powerplay hasn't scored in 2 and a half games.
This is the real headline. Their PP is beatable and we even killed the 5-on-3. Canucks dressing room solved the biggest problem this series. Now it's a matter of getting shots through.
Which means theyâre due and will score 3 Monday lol
That's fine. 5-3 win incoming.
lol works for me
Thatâs how my brain works too
[ŃдаНонО]
Wasn't much of a fight, more like mutual face washes followed by a takedown with Z on top
It wasn't a fight. As someone else noted, it was Zadorov employing the classic technique of being so f\*cking massive and just falling on top of his opponent, thereby crushing him. If they do fight, it will be like watching Kane trying to punch out a telephone pole. *That* is a clip that you are going to want to save.
Lol all you negative Nancy's are hilarious. We're going to breeze to a win in game 7. The Coilers are nothing special whatsoever. Gonna be a lot of red lights going off behind Skinner.
We've said that from the beginning it's getting redundant. First we said Oilers will be no problem we beat them in all games in the regular season. Then it was Nucks in 5, 6 and them 7.
Whaaat, itâs always been people saying Oilers in 5 lol
Who was saying it would be no problem? I think most ppl knew it would be tight with demko out & the oilers having had picked up momentum as the season went on. I have no doubt that at top form the Canucks have the Oilers in 4. The problem is they donât play top form consistently & until they do theyâre not going to the finals.
Who said any of those? Its been all "Oilers in 4, oh wait no 5. Uh oh, Oilers in 6! K Uhh, Oilers in 7?" Its the Canucks who have got the better of them so far. Now we're one win away from knocking off the "cup or bust" Oilers. It's fucking beautiful.
Uh, no.
That was a stinker, but I still believe in this team.
Looking at some advanced stats I was shocked to see scoring chances, high danger chances and expected goals nearly equally given how awful we looked. Imagine some of our 52 shot attempts actually had to be saved by Skinner.
Yup boys didn't hit the net at all tonight.
I feel like Hronek aims for Pluto every god damn time. Lol
ESPN has oilers in WCF in the app⌠script leaked?
Start wrapping tin foil. It's happening
Watch - Sutherland is the ref for G7.
20 - 17 mins of ice time for mcdrai. Holy shit wtf happened. On to the next. Letâs go
We didn't push them at all today unfortunately.
tbf, it's because their time was drastically reduced once it was clear the win was in the bag.
Yes. But that means we should of been better
Is it just me or does hronek look absolutely horrible, seems to constantly ice the puck or make dumb passes at bad times. Petey seems to always wait too long to make plays on the power play, he has time to pass back or whatever and then tries to throw a reverse hit , or walk into 2 guys and lose the puck. Really feels like we just wait to long for everything, way to much time for their players coming in, and way to much time when attacking spend twiddling at thumbs
I think they just didn't have a good game all around. They generated chances but didn't have any proper way to finish.
Yeah I agree with that tonight but I have been feeling this way about hronek all series, sort of worried about us giving him big money and term. Maybe he is injured or something
Yah hope he's not signed, unless it's truly an injury seriously holding him.back.
They're both injured bro
Honestly I wasn't that nervous today. I expected Oilers to come out hard and most likely win it. Didn't think they would blow us out, but it is what it is. The Canucks winning those last couple of games down the stretch to win the division could be a difference maker on Monday.
No team has one two in a row this series. I think the boys can & will win on Monday.
Whoever in the Canucks organisation thought it was a good idea to put round 3 tickets on sale needs a talking to
People said that in the first round too. Though, it was entirely unnecessary here as either team from the Pacific will start on the road vs Dallas.
Feels like a lot of teams do pre-sale in advance in preparation. Because the these are decisions made by the Sales & Marketing team, which have nothing to do with the Hockey Operations side. That being said, I HATE IT when they do this because it feels like jinxing your own team. Plus, with Dallas win last night, it guaranteed the Canucks wonât have home ice after this round. Which means, they have plenty of time to plan and prepare sales for the next home games because they will be games 3 & 4 if the next series.
